Lillian, what I find terribly upsetting is when a company like
this stands to benefit BOTH WAYS -- they make big bucks causing the disease
with the chemicals they produce, and then more big bucks producing drugs to
treat it! We have to educate ourselves, not just about the particular cancers
we're each fighting, but about the real causes of it, so we can stop it at
it's sources.
Cures are not enough! We need to get to the root of it,
and fight the CAUSES of cancer! Love, Joicy

Joicy wins the prize, I was wondering who would not
only read the abstracts; but also go into the article links. My
daughter saw her doctor today and he did a small math test produced by
"TAMOXIFEN" and it put her slightly up on the scale as a possible breast
cancer risk.I told her that we had very little cancer in our family, except
for me and I had enough for everyone, that we had more nuts than cancer
patients. I then explained to her what all this company is doing.
Gosh Joicy, remember when we were first on the forum the brawl I
caused simply because I questioned Tamoxifen? I realize that I
am a pain in the butt with all the information I send; but it behooves
people to read it. So much of cancer is general and alike. Sure,
I know it's boring; but if we can save one person or help one person we want
it to be one of our Moler friends. Love, lillian

Subject: [MOL] chilling cancer article
Friends, I followed the links on one of the articles Lillian sent,
and thought the following was an important read, NOT just for breast
cancerers! It's called "Seeing Deception is your Only Protection: The
Breast Cancer Awareness Month Story, By Sherrill Sellman.
I have
always been angered by the outright misleading motto of Breast Cancer
Awareness Month, that "Early Detection is Your Best Protection". The
National Cancer Institute stated in 1995 that "Breast cancer is simply not
a preventable disease!" How does early discovery PREVENT what you've
already got?
Below is an excerpt from the article which I think
you'll find interesting. Sadly, I suspect this is only the tip of the
iceberg in causes of cancer and conflicts of interest. Love and prayers,
Joicy
Did you know:
Breast cancer Awareness
month's primary sponsor and mastermind is Zeneca Pharmaceuticals (now
AstraZeneca), manufacturer of the controversial and widely prescribed
breast cancer drug, tamoxifen. All TV, radio and print media are paid
for and must be approved by AstraZeneca!
It is less known that
Zeneca also makes herbicides and fungicides. One of their
products, the organochlorine pesticide, acetochlor is implicated as a
causal factor in breast cancer. It's Perry, Ohio chemical plant is the
third largest source of potential cancer-causing pollution in the US,
spewing 53,000 pounds of recognized carcinogens into the air in
1996.
Perhaps we can forgive Zeneca's
involvement with carcinogenic chemicals, since it researched and
patented the most popular breast cancer treatment, Tamoxifen, grossing
500 million dollars annually. Perhaps not. On May 16, 2000 the New York
Times reported that the National Institute for Environmental Health
Sciences listed substances that are known to cause cancer. Tamoxifen was
included in that list!! 7
It is known that tamoxifen causes
uterine cancer, liver cancer and gastrointestinal cancer. After just two
to three years of use, tamoxifen will increase the incidence of uterine
cancer by two -three times. The treatment for uterine cancer is an
hysterectomy. In addition, tamoxifen increased the risk of strokes,
blood clots, eye damage, menopausal symptoms, and depression.
The biggest shock of all is the fact that
tamoxifen will increase the risk of breast cancer! The journal Science
published a study from Duke University Medical Center in 1999 showing
that after 2-5 years, tamoxifen actually initiated the growth of breast
cancer!
So, Zeneca, the originator of
Breast Cancer Awareness month is the manufacturer of carcinogenic
petrochemicals, carcinogenic pollutants and a breast cancer drug that
causes at least four different types of cancer in women, including
breast cancer. Is something wrong with this
picture?
