Cancer Research have published this on their website. I think it's a good article which I wish the uninformed (and sometimes those who are meant to be informed) would read.
There are so many opinions about what causes cancer, what you can do to avoid it, what you should do and as a cancer patient, one is very vulnerable to such opinions. I think everyone wants to help deep down but sometimes I wish that I hadn't heard a chance remark or a certain piece of advice, or talked to a particular person. Even fellow cancer bloggers say their biggest problem is spam comments from companies promising a miracle cure. There is always, sadly, someone ready to profit from the vulnerable or desparate. So, hear this, there is NO miracle cure and if it did exist it is certainly NOT sodium bicarbonate!
I sort of dispute #2, about there being no superfoods because I think that food must be some play a really important part in our well being but I agree, there are no superfoods that will cure cancer. I think that the book 'anti cancer' does explain why some foods are better than others for people who are trying to stave off cancer, but there is no food that will cure it, for sure.
#4 is what my ONCOLOGIST said to me!! Cancer likes sugar. I have felt so utterly guilty about my previous diet since he told me that, like it was my fault. So thank you, Cancer Research, for that and je t'emmerde my oncologist.
#2 my taxi driver who took me to the radiotherapy appointments told me about a lady who was trying a 'treatement' in order to avoid chemotherapy and that it was all a big scandal because the drug companies don't want us to know things so they can continue to make potloads of money. I don't know how that lady got on, but I hope she's doing alright.
And poor sharks, they do get cancer but they've probably had their fins cut off and eaten in a Chinese restaurant before they could die of it.
