Be aware of fake cancer treatment and medicines

61

By world of the wise

There are many drugs on market which promoters say cure cancer yet they not work at all and cancer patients should beware of such drugs. In the United States, Laetrile is an illegal drug that contains cyanide, a potentially lethal poison as well as other impurities, however, this is so called cancer drug is available in Mexico and people cross over to get it.

Drugs like Laetrile will exist as long as diseases like cancer exist.  People want to be free from pain either from cancer itself or from the effects of chemotherapy. When a cancer patient reaches terminal stages, they are more likely to try anything. However, it would be better to know the signs cancer medicine quackeries so that when you need a cancer drug, you will not buy a fake one.

How to cancer medicine quackeries

There are some standard ways which you can use to know that a cancer drug is fake and these include the following

  • The promoter promises “miracle” cancer cure through their medicine. Nearly all of such drugs are fake.
  • If the drug is only sold door to door and is not available in drug stores
  • The drug is claimed to cure many other ailments and diseases apart from cancer
  • The cancer drug is only sold through mail and there is no way you can meet face to face with the seller. In many cases, such sellers operate in their small rooms.
  • The drug is advertised as scientific breakthrough without any reference to a medical school, study or journal.
  • The drug is said to have a fast, painless cure. For example, promises of “get cured within a week”
  • The promises on the drug are too good to be true

I would therefore advice you to look for good cancer medicines if you need them but if you find one with the above characteristics, be sure to avoid it.

Laetrile is actually a vitamin. Do you believe that a lack of a single vitamin can cause more than one ailment? If so, one vitamin can be a cure for many ailments. But this does not mean a vitamin is a fake cure; and neither is vitamin a drug.

Am not saying Laetrile cures cancer, although it's been proven that it does reduce tumor size. Sadly, laetrile is seen as some kind of con medicine, just because the authorities refuses to use and recommend it in conventional or standardised medicine.

Even those who integrate herbs with conventional meds are not "let off". No other disease is as "politically charged" as cancer.
