"Chris Beat Cancer" Interviews Dr. Patrick Vickers of Gerson Center

     Chris Wark was diagnosed with Stage 3 colon cancer at age 26 in 2003.  He had surgery but refused chemo and instead healed himself through nutrition and natural therapies.  His introduction to the video:
     Here’s a terrific new video I did with Dr. Patrick Vickers of Northern Baja Gerson Center. He and I met at the Hungry 4 Health Gala and Organic Festival in Branson, MO in April and after hearing him speak about Gerson I couldn’t wait to interview him.
     In our interview he tells the amazing story of medical genius Dr. Max Gerson and explains how the Gerson Cancer Therapy came into existence.
     Dr. Gerson was a pioneer of nutritional cancer therapy and even though many do not know his name, his impact on the world is monumental. Countless thousands have healed using the principles of the Gerson Cancer Therapy, including me!

Historical Data: Vaccines Didn't Save Us From Anything

      Do vaccines actually protect against the viruses and illnesses that they claim to? If you only get your news and information from mainstream news and educational sources, then the question about whether vaccines are effective is never even raised. However, if you look at the historical data on vaccination efficacy, you'll see that they are not responsible for the decline in disease in the last hundred years at all:

- In 1977, Dr. Jonas Salk, who developed the first polio vaccine, testified along with other scientists that mass inoculation against polio was the cause of most polio cases throughout the USA since 1961. (Science 4/4/77 "Abstracts")

- In Oman between 1988 and 1989, a polio outbreak occurred amongst thousands of
fully vaccinated children. The region with the highest infection rate had the highest vaccine coverage. The region with the lowest infection rate had the lowest vaccine coverage. (The Lancet, 21/9/91)

- In 1990, the Journal of the American Medical Association had an article on measles which stated, "Although more than 95% of school-aged children in the US are vaccinated against measles, large measles outbreaks continue to occur in schools and most cases in this setting occur among previously vaccinated children." (JAMA, 21/11/90)

 - In the New England Journal of Medicine July 1994 issue, a study found that over 80%  of children under 5 years of age who had contracted whooping cough had been fully vaccinated.

- In 1979, Sweden abandoned the whooping cough vaccine due to its ineffectiveness. Out of 5,140 cases in 1978, it was found that 84% had been vaccinated three times! (BMJ 283:696-697, 1981)

10 Year Old Amish Girl Flees US to Escape Forced Chemo, Recovers Naturally

     I've mentioned before the incident--being told that I would be arrested if I refused permission for UC Davis Medical Center, Sacramento, to continue chemotherapy for my then 14 year-old daughter, that she would be placed in foster care and given chemo anyway--  that led, among other things, to my starting this blog. I've since learned of many similar episodes, including this one now:

Amish Girl Being Forced Into Chemotherapy Taken Out of US By Family, Recovers with Natural Treatments
and
10 Year Old Amish Girl Flees US to Escape Chemo

For the record, my daughter is now 18 and healthy.  We used the Gerson Diet and various alternative natural supplements.

Letter Objecting to Common Core State Standards

     This letter was sent individually to each Catholic bishop in the United States.  132 Catholic professors signed the letter.  It is the most wonderfully written letter I have seen on this topic.  Here is an excerpt regarding the CCSS's new emphasis on "informational texts" including government documents and regulations and away from classical, narrative fiction:
     Professor Stotsky was the chief architect of the universally-praised Massachusetts English language arts standards, which contributed greatly to that state's educational success.  She describes Common Core as an incubator of "empty skill sets...[that] weaken the basis of literary and cultural knowledge needed for authentic college course work."  Rather than explore the creativity of man, the great lessons of life, love, tragedy, good and evil, the rich textures of history that underlie great works of fiction, and the tales of self-sacrifice and mercy in the works of the great writers that have shaped our cultural history over the centuries, Common Core reduces reading to a servile activity.
You may read this brilliant letter and see the signatory list here.

Halloween? Stock Up On UNREAL Candy

IT TOOK A QUESTION FROM A 13 YEAR OLD
The morning after a night of trick-or-treating, Nicky woke up to find that his dad had confiscated most of candy. Angry, Nicky set out to do some research and prove to his dad that candy isn’t so bad for you. Nicky knew, of course, that candy wasn’t good for you, but he didn’t know just how bad most candy is. Nicky learned that the worst parts of candy, stuff like partially hydrogenated oils, corn syrup, artificial colors, flavors, chemical preservatives and loads of sugar (“the junk”) aren’t there to make it taste better. They’re there to make candy cheaper to produce and last longer on shelves.

Cancer Now the Leading Cause of Childhood Death in the U.S.

Via Robyn O'Brien at "Inspired Bites":

     Cancer is now the leading cause of death for U.S. children, according to a recent report from the American Cancer Institute. It hasn’t made a lot of headlines, maybe it got lost in the news about government shutdowns, but according to ABC News:
“Cancer is the leading cause of childhood death in the United States, with 13,500 new diagnoses each year according to the American Cancer Institute. One out of every 300 boys and one out of every 333 girls will develop cancer before their 20th birthday, according to the American Society of Clinical Oncology.”

     I have always had to qualify pediatric cancer, saying that cancer is the leading cause of death by disease in American children, because up until now, accidents took more children’s lives in the United States.
     Not anymore. Cancer is now claiming more lives. And while our kids may only represent 30% of the population, they are 100% of our future.

GMO Labeling: Your 'Right to Know' Is Not a Courtesy, It's Because GMOs Are Demonstrably Dangerous

    As Jon Rapport points out at No More Fake News, the "niceness" factor is what doomed Prop 37 here in California and could endanger Prop 522 in Washington state.
     “We believe that we have a right to know what’s in our food,” said Elizabeth Larter, the Seattle-based communications director for the Yes on 522 campaign. “This campaign is not about whether GMOs (genetically modified organisms) are good or bad; this is really just providing more information for consumers.”
     Really. This is just about “providing more information.”
     Good and bad are irrelevant.
     If so, then why should consumers care whether the food they buy and eat is labeled?
