Review: A time-proven theory - I bought this copy of World Without Cancer a few weeks ago because I had lost Part I (it was originally published in two parts) and I wanted to review what I had read 38 years ago. I am even more impressed by the book today because I have put the simple theory of Dr. Ernst T. Krebs (the biochemist who pioneered Laetrile, Vitamin B17) to the ultimate test. Dr. Krebs discovered that cancer is a nutritional-deficiency disease. It is caused by the absence of a substance that modern man has removed from his diet. Under that theory the cure and prevention of cancer becomes a simple matter of restoring that easily obtained food factor to our daily meals. Laetrile is found in the seeds of many fruits, but more abundantly in those of apricots. After reading this impressive book in 1975 I began eating four seeds every day. I am now 86 and free of cancer, tumors or growths of any kind. I realize that proves nothing since I may never have had cancer under any circumstances; however, my exceptional health bolsters my testimony that Laetrile is the missing critical ingredient in modern food. Mr. Griffin's book addresses not merely the story of Vitamin B17, but the intrigue behind the blackout of the substance, and the $80 billion cancer industry that Laetrile, if openly marketed, would surely threaten. Time magazine recently ran a story on cancer research and concluded with the assertion that no single scientific hero is likely to emerge with a cure for cancer. I don't often write letters to the editor, but as one who knows otherwise, how could I remain silent? This is what I wrote: "No scientist is likely to emerge with a cure for cancer? He already has. He is Ernst T. Krebs who discovered Laetrile. But that was too simple, too affordable for the (then) $60 billion cancer industry; so the prescription of a few apricots seeds had to be criminalized, while cut, burn and poison remained the approved remedy." Time did not print my letter. Anyone surprised? Read the book. It may save your life.
Review: If you live on this planet, this book is for you - If you're a man, you have 44 % chance of getting cancer. If you're a woman, you have 38 % probability. If you won't get cancer, you can be sure some of your family members or friends will. So THIS BOOK IS DEFINITIVELY FOR YOU ! Cancer is an epidemic but governments don't care. You don't see it on the news all the time the same way when some exotic kind of influenza breaks out on which some pharmaceutical company can make some bucks. Officially, President Nixon declared the War on Cancer in 1971, but reality is that cancer since then increased 24 %... In the meantime, the petrochemical industry continues producing carcinogenic pesticides, but they aren't blamed. You, yeah YOU, get the blame, with your "unhealthy lifestyle". But then again, you aren't being well informed. Dr. Samuel Epstein sees it as follows : "Consumer product legislation is well overdue. All foods grown with the application of carcinogenic pesticides should be clearly labeled with a cancer warning, the name of each carcinogenic pesticide, and the concentrations of its residues". The FDA couldn't care less. They pretend "pesticides residues are safe for consumers". Literally. See FDA Fact Sheet July, 1971 ("Nutrition Nonsense - And Sense"). The good news, however, is that this book gives you the cure for cancer. No kidding. It is called vitamin B17 ! Ever heard of it ? I doubt so. I didn't either, before reading this book. I thought vitamin B stopped at B12. Didn't you also ? Wrong. Vitamin B17 AND vitamin B15 have been discovered in the 50's. And vitamin B17 - present in apricot seeds - is being consumed by the Hunza, the longest living people on earth, to their great benefit, with an average life expectancy of more than 85 years. Far better than our "modern civilization" is capable of. A lot of Hunza get well beyond 100 years. They appreciate and eat the apricot seeds to their great delight. This book will explain you the exact way B17 works against cancer cells, as an intelligent missile, leaving healthy cells untouched. Now, you will be thinking, like me, before I bought this book, why the industry is not selling this "cure for cancer". The author goes great lengths explaining why the industry isn't interested in this treatment. One of the essential points is that vitamin B17 is present in *apricot seeds*. How on earth do you think this can be patented ? A vitamin ! It is impossible. Nothing to make money on here. More money can be made on continuing the "search for the cure for cancer". Like the author says : more people make a living on cancer than people are dying from cancer... The author describes also a lot of tests that have proven the effectiveness of this therapy. What most convinced me was the story of some doctors working with this therapy. Some have been officially accused of "quackery", like Dr. John Richardson. He was arrested on June 2, 1972, but dismissed two years later. Then the FDA - yeah, the same guys you think are protecting you and your health - tried another strategy, and went through his files of patients, trying to find some dissatisfied patients. Are you always happy with your doctor ? I doubt so. So, their plan was to convince one or two of his dissatisfied patients to instigate lawsuits against the doctor - WITH THE GOVERNMENT COVERING ALL LEGAL COSTS ! Now, what happened was that they weren't able to find a single patient dissatisfied with his treatment. NOT A SINGLE ONE ! I would love to have this doctor in my neighborhood, wouldn't you ? Finally, they got him on the accusation of "conspiracy to smuggle", took away his medical license, and obliged him to go to Mexico to continue his treatment of cancer patients. America, land of the free ? Think again. Dr. John Richardson, while still able to operate his clinic, helped more than 4.000 people. In Laetrile Case Histories (The Richardson Cancer Clinic Experience) he tells the stories of 62 people with different types of cancers that he cured. This is the perfect complement to this book. To all this I can also add a personal experience. The mother of a friend was diagnosed with cancer in July 2009, and had metastasis all over her body. My friend prohibited explicitly to all doctors the use of chemotherapy, since she had already three of her family members having died very soon after having undergone this "treatment". So I told her about this natural treatment with vitamin B17, and she enthusiastically agreed. In January 2010, a new scan of her mother was taken and she is totally free of cancer !
