It is not surprising to learn that Big Pharma has shown no interest in what may become the world’s first proven cancer prevention pill. If big profits aren’t promised, pharmaceutical companies predictably pass on such a development.
The pill is a relatively safe FDA-approved generic drug, prescribed millions of times to help control diabetes, and it costs maybe 10-cents a day. But what is surprising is that public health authorities appear to be remiss in announcing this breakthrough. They are the agency in society commissioned to address important public health issues such as this.
Data has been accumulating for 5 years now showing metformin (Glucophage), an anti-diabetic drug, dramatically reduces the risk for cancer and prolongs life among patients who are battling cancer.

News reports herald a possible future cure for cancer, a cure that appears so convincing in the animal laboratory that it tempts many to think a true cancer cure may soon be at hand. But careful examination suggests what is clearly a cure in the animal lab may not be a practical cure in the oncology clinic.
In recent times there has been a renaissance in immunotherapy for cancer. Immunotherapy aims to activate an efficient immune response against tumors or prevent cancers from occurring in the first place. Decades ago cancer researchers dismissed this approach in favor of the toxic cancer cell-killing treatments that now predominate. But now cancer researchers are reporting some breakthroughs, at least in the animal laboratory.

Modern medicine is getting tantalizingly closer to curing cancer in the true sense of the word. The announcement that germ/tumor-fighting T-cells have recently been genetically “weaponized” and then instilled back into 3 leukemia patients with near or total 1-year remissions has hit the news media in recent days. It is a thrilling moment in the history of medicine.
So the most recent announced cancer cure is also a stunner — that an extract (crocin) from crocus, the autumn-flowering perennial plant (Crocus sativus), from which golden-yellow saffron spice is derived, can be re-engineered to ignite a fuse that destroys blood vessels that feed growing tumors, but only after it has entered a tumor cell, not before.

Health authorities don’t foresee any cancer cures on the horizon. The World Health Organization estimates annual cancer cases will rise from 12.7 million to 21 million, and cancer deaths will jump from 7.6 million to more than 13 million, by the year 2030. That’s over 35,000 people dying of cancer every day. Over those two decades, world population is projected to increase from 7.01 billion to 9.30 billion, a rise of about 30%, while cancer cases and deaths will increase by 65—70%.
Despite concerns over carcinogens in the environment — cancer-causing agents such as herbicides, asbestos, and hormones — cancer is an age-related disease. Cancer was not a major health problem when life expectancy was 48 years for a newborn American child in the year 1900. But the life expectancy of Americans has risen upwards to nearly 80 years today and cancer affects nearly every extended family in America.

Cancer researchers now recognize that molecular signals sent to healthy cells can convert them to tumor cells and that blockage of these “cancer signals” may put an abrupt halt to tumor growth.
Researchers now think they have found the precise molecular switch that “turns on” cancer, and this suggests an antidote to cancer may soon be at hand.
“Cancer research is on the verge of an important change in direction,” says a recent report. “The Warburg Effect returns to the cancer stage,” says another report.
The Warburg Effect — you mean that eight-decades-old research conducted by German biochemist Otto Warburg, for which he was awarded a Nobel Prize in 1931? This means cancer researchers may have actually lost ground in their war against cancer by largely dismissing Warburg’s observations first reported in 1926.

A 43-page landmark report entitled WORSE THAN THE DISEASE? REVIEWING SOME POSSIBLE UNINTENDED CONSEQUENCES OF THE mRNA VACCINES AGAINST COVID-19 has been published in the International Journal of Vaccine Theory, Practice & Research. Its chief author, an MIT scientist, is Stephanie Seneff.
Using contrived infection and mortality data and a complicit fear-mongering news media, an emergency use permit was issued to immunize human populations worldwide on a life-and-death basis, waive the requirement for informed consent, and embarked on the world’s first genetically modified RNA (nucleotide) immunization of the general population. An estimated 40 trillion RNA particles, stabilized and protected by polyethylene glycol (PEG) which also serves as an immune stimulant, are injected.

Health authorities in Chile are no more cognizant how to halt the spread of COVID-19 coronavirus than anywhere else on the globe. With no vaccine in hand and the World Health Organization casting a blind eye towards nutritional prevention and therapy, all they know to do is issue ineffective instructions on hand washing, mask wearing and physical lockdown to prevent the spread of infection. The prediction for Chile is an “impending catastrophe.” Chile’s capital was placed on lockdown on May 5.
Scientists in Chile appeal to President Sebastian Pinera for a change in strategy. Preventive action is demanded. That means total destruction of Chile’s economy in exchange for a lockdown of its population.
As of May 31st there have been 1,054 deaths and 99,688 total confirmed cases with about 4000 more cases reported every day, out of a population of 18.7 million.

It’s worth clicking through to look at Dr. Paul Merik as he speaks at NPR.org about saving thousands of lives with vitamin C therapy and see the medical student in the background wiping back her tears….. For the first time, after hundreds of failed drug trials, patients are rapidly recovering from blood poisoning (aka sepsis) and leaving the hospital three days later. And this discovery doesn’t come from Johns Hopkins Medical Center, Harvard Medical School or the Mayo Clinic. How about Eastern Virginia Medical School!
Click to hear a nurse speak: “We would just go day and after day, they (the patients) just weren’t getting any better… it (vitamin therapy) just seemed too simple…. We thought it had to be a fluke, but we had patients getting better. Patients were turning around quickly, within 12 hours. They would be at death’s door, and 12 hours later they were 50% better… we have seen patients walk out of here that we didn’t think would leave alive. I have goose bumps now.”

Sleep: Trying to get 8 hours of uninterrupted sleep may be frustrating. Modern humans are going to sleep two hours later than the daylight-darkness cycle. Prior to electric lighting, people slept for about 6 hours, awoke for about two hours, and then went back for a second sleep. Blue light emitted from electronic devices, even smart phones, or computer monitors fouls up melatonin secretion, the sleep hormone. Be aware. Blue light filters are available for computer monitors and eyeglass lenses. However, no one is mentioning that blue light filtering in the AM is counter-productive and impairs the dissipation of melatonin and could theoretically induce daytime sleepiness. Best to get some direct sunlight early in the AM to awaken fully refreshed and alert.

A biological reality is that many Americans may have been genetically pre-programmed to develop diabetes, heart disease, high blood pressure, become obese, even suffer with mental depression and other mental problems, based upon circumstances in their mother’s womb and very early childhood. That is when the human library of ~25,000 genes that resides in the nucleus of every living cell in the body develops what are called epigenetic tags or marks.
Genetics is the arrangement of steps (nucleotides) on the DNA ladder that is fixed whereas epigenetics involves the dynamic protein-making aspect of genes (called gene expression or gene silencing) that helps humans adapt to their immediate environment.
