by John P. Thomas Health Impact News John Thomas explains to us why the current cancer industry prospers while treating cancer, but cannot afford to cure it. At the beginning of the last century, one person in twenty would get cancer. In the 1940s it was one out of every sixteen people. In the 1970s it was one person out of ten. Today one person out of three gets cancer in the course of their life. The cancer industry is probably the most prosperous business in the world. In 2016, there will be an estimated 1,665,540 new cancer cases diagnosed and 585,720 cancer deaths in the US. $6 billion of tax-payer funds are cycled through various federal agencies for cancer research, such as the National Cancer Institute (NCI). The NCI states that the medical costs of cancer care are $125 billion, with a projected 39 percent increase to $173 billion by 2020. The simple fact is that the cancer industry employs too many people and produces too much income to allow a cure to b...

A recent study revealed one of the most dangerous health scams that has been killing people for decades in a very cruel way. It is chemotherapy.  Dr. Hardin B. Jones, professor of medical physics and physiology at the University of California, studied the lifespan of cancer patients over a period of 25 years, when he came to the conclusion that chemotherapy does not work.  He testified that the patients suffering from cancer, who were treated with chemotherapy, died the most horrible death. Also, Dr. Jones warned that patients treated with chemotherapy die much faster and more painfully than those treated with an alternative therapy. After numerous studies, it has been concluded that chemotherapy significantly reduces the lifetime and kills patients faster, and the worst in all this is that it is done consciously. Pharmaceutical companies are doing it to make a profit, and it all was all for nothing when the people realize that cancer is curable by means of cheap and natur...

How can someone die from chemotherapy overdose? It's simple. First of all, many people who are fighting cancer don't really have cancer. Doctors, X-ray technicians and oncologists misread (purposely or on accident) lab results, and people go under the knife, get chemo and radiation for NO reason but to pad the pockets of the billion-dollar cancer machine. Second of all, many people who are fighting cancer ARE WEAK, and the last thing they need is to kill their good bacteria and poison their pineal gland in their brain. Then, at the hospital, they are fed 100% GMO toxic food, toxic beverages, toxic sugar water (via the IV), and toxic gluten, MSG and aspartame at the hospital cafeteria. Cancer victims are being "processed," and they don't even know that chemotherapy was first thought up by Nazis. People die from chemotherapy overdose because they are already weak and consume all the wrong foods. Cancer can be reversed. Organic sulfur, hemp seed oil, chaga mushroo...

Cycling has been known to improve your overall health. Now research shows it reduces cancer risk, too.     Biking just half an hour a day reduces risk of cancer by 34 percent according to a new Swedish report published in the British Journal of Cancer. The study, which looked at more than 40,000 Scandinavian men ages 45-79, found a direct relationship between the amount of time men spent cycling and the risk of being diagnosed with cancer and their cancer recovery rate. The researchers compared responses from the men with seven years of medical records and the group's 3700 cancer cases to find the association. In addition to the reduction in cancer incidence, daily cyclists were also 33 percent more likely to survive and recover from cancer. And for each hour of moderate exercise, risk of cancer mortality dropped by 12 percent.  The researchers say it's clear that increased activity leads to a longer life, but they point out the exact effects of exercise on ...

Here's a little inspiration for those of us over age 60, 70, 80 and beyond.   Whether you’ve never exercised before or have simply fallen off track, it’s never too late to renew your commitment to physical activity. Even if you’re well into your senior years, you still have time to begin. In a study, a group of nursing home residents with an average age of 90 improved their strength between 167 and 180 percent after just eight weeks of weight training. For example, Willie Murphy, (featured in full article), began weight lifting at age 73. Four years later, at 77, she was able to deadlift 215 pounds — more than twice her own weight (105 pounds). She can also powercurl 60 pounds. Needless to say, she carries her grand-children and groceries with ease, and has no problem shoveling her own snow and pushing her car when it gets stuck. These are all quality of life issues that you may not fully appreciate until or unless you lose them. Murphy, however, recognizes the value of being ab...
