World Without Cancer author G. Edward Griffin exposes how corruptpolitics prevent real cancer cures from reaching the public
Thirty-one years ago, a man wrote a book exposing the politicsinvolved in cancer therapy. It painted a picture of a world in whichan effective control for cancer existed but was outlawed because itcouldn't line the pockets of the powerful pharmaceutical industry. In31 years, little has changed.G. Edward Griffin's 1974 book World Without Cancer is as poignanttoday as the day it was written, and in some circles, just ascontroversial. That's because Griffin tells the story of a powerfulsubstance that, despite its potential to aid in the fight againstcancer, few cancer sufferers will ever know about, and that theirdoctors certainly will not offer them. That substance is vitamin B-17,also called Laetrile, and it is a naturally-occurring substance thathas been banned for use in the control of cancer in the United States.Griffin was first introduced to the subject of vitamin therapy forcancer control while on a fishing trip with San Francisco physicianJohn Richardson, he said in a telephone interview. Dr. Richardson toldGriffin he had seen great success in treating his cancer patients withvitamin B-17, but he faced opposition from local medical authoritieswho, when they caught wind of what he was doing, balked at the fact hewas using a treatment that was not FDA-approved. In an effort toprotect his right to administer a therapy he had seen work on so manypatients, Dr. Richardson turned to Griffin for help in advancing hiscause, and thus was the beginning of World Without Cancer.Griffin, who knew nothing of the science of cancer when he began hisproject, soon learned plenty. His research led him to the conclusionthat naturally-occurring Laetrile is indeed an effective treatment forcancer. In fact, from the time he started his research to today,Griffin says he has seen literally thousands of people benefit fromtreatment with Laetrile. He also learned that cancer is a diseaselinked directly to a deficiency of vitamin B-17, which is found inhigh amounts in apricot kernels. However, perhaps the most importantand most troubling thing he learned was that Laetrile and its healthpotential were being kept out of doctors' hands for political – notscientific – reasons.According to Griffin, the 1953 California Report continues to be thebasis of most scientific or legal opposition to vitamin B-17 today.The report, written by Dr. Henry Garland and Dr. E. M. McDonald of theCalifornia Medical Association's Cancer Advisory Commission, claimsthere is no proof Laetrile is an effective control for cancer. (Itshould be noted that these two particular doctors were at the timealso insisting there was no link between smoking and lung cancer.)However, Griffin writes in World Without Cancer that Garland andMcDonald actually falsified information from Laetrile experimentscited in the California Report. In fact, 10 years after the report waspublished, original documents surfaced that proved information hadbeen falsified. Although the report was subsequently updated,additional problems – such as insufficient vitamin dosages used in theexperiments – persisted, and the conclusions of the originalCalifornia Report remained embedded in the literature and minds of many.Additional studies conducted by well-known groups like theSloane-Kettering Institute have proven the effectiveness of Laetrile,according to Griffin. However, those study results have not beenpublicized."When you dig into the facts, and you read the reports by the peoplethemselves inside those institutions, you find out they found in theirtesting that Laetrile was highly effective, but they receiveddirectives from the top to suppress that information," Griffin said.So why would the "powers-that-be" work so hard to suppress informationthat could benefit thousands of people dying of cancer? "They do thatbecause they're trying to make a buck, and something that is found innature, like Laetrile, cannot be patented," says Griffin. But thestory doesn't stop there.The Hitler / Pharma connectionWorld Without Cancer is divided into two parts, and in the second halfof the book, Griffin goes on to reveal some disturbing informationabout an international drug cartel that came into being in the yearsbefore World War II that he says played a significant role in shapingthe field of medicine in this country. This powerful cartel wascreated, Griffin argues, when I.G. Farben, a German-based chemicalcompany and financial backer of Adolf Hitler, joined together withStandard Oil of New Jersey, founded by American business tycoon JohnD. Rockefeller, in an agreement not to compete. The partnership waslargely concealed, since neither company wanted their countries toknow about the relationship in the event of an inevitable second worldwar. In a lecture, Griffin once referred to the Farben-Rockefellermerger as "the largest and most powerful cartel the world has everknown, even though most people have never heard about it."And so the extremely influential Rockefeller came to be interlockedwith the drug industry, and under the guise of philanthropy, begandonating large sums of money to America's faltering medical schools.Of course, the catch was that such schools were told the money had tobe used for drug research, which would create a great profit forRockefeller interests. In their time of need, medical schools readilycomplied. "When they accepted the money, they had to follow thedollar, and they designed their curricula so it favors pharmacy (and)pharmaceutical drugs," says Griffin.This effectively gave birth to the conventional medical care system weknow today, which is based almost entirely on prescription drugs andknows little to nothing about basic nutrition (see related ebook onnutrition). "The medical schools of the United States now teach thestudents everything there is to know about their product, which isdrugs," Griffin says, "And so [doctors] come out as highly traineddrug salesmen, and they don't even know it!"Even doctors are kept in the dark about B-17It's no wonder then that natural treatments like vitamin B-17 remainbanned or widely unknown in the United States; there is a long line ofprofit and power ensuring they stay that way. That's why doctors willnot offer cancer patients vitamin therapy with vitamin B-17, and whymost doctors, if asked about Laetrile, will say it has been provenineffective. However, Griffin doesn't blame the doctors forconventional modern medicine's focus on drugs, noting, "They're kindof victims of this whole system as much as the rest of us, and theyand their families die of cancer just like everyone else. So it'sclear that they're not holding back a control for cancer that theyknow works. If they knew about it, they would use it, just like Dr.Richardson. It's just that they're pretty well sheltered from thatinformation, and they rely very strongly on the prestigious sources atthe top."Since Griffin's book hit shelves in 1974, awareness of natural healthhas increased, but little has changed in terms of the availability ofLaetrile in the United States. It remains illegal for doctors toprescribe or sell Laetrile as a control for cancer. According toGriffin, however, some clinics continue to quietly use the substance,often only after the patient has obtained it. Many other patientstravel to Mexico for treatment.Griffin worries that vitamin B-17 is not the only natural treatmentfor serious disease being suppressed because of political andfinancial reasons. "I'm convinced, and this is just my opinion now; Ican't back this up with facts, but on the basis of what I've seen, Ithink this whole AIDS field is just a rubber stamp of the cancerfield," Griffin states. He adds, "I am sure that you'll find thisthing all over the medical field because they follow the buck. Theyhave to have something that's patented to do that, and patentedmedicines are usually toxic."Today, Griffin says writing World Without Cancer dramatically changedhis views and may have saved his life. "It is like night into day," hesays. "I am firmly convinced that had I not done this research andlearned what I did, I probably would have been dead today because Iwas living the lifestyle of the typical American – fast foods, noexercise (and) no awareness of the fact that I had any responsibilityfor my health."The politics of cancer therapyOn the first page of his book, Griffin openly acknowledges that whathe writes is not approved by the Food and Drug Administration,American Medical Association or the American Cancer Society and saysthat they in fact would call it "fraud and quackery." That is because,as Griffin has often said, the politics of cancer therapy are far morecomplicated than the science of cancer therapy.This core problem, according to Griffin, cannot be solved until we getthe politics out of a lot of other areas as well. In the meantime, itis up to each individual consumer to take responsibility for his orher own health and wellbeing. "I think it's important for people tounderstand that government, in most cases, is not the solution; it'sthe problem," Griffin warns. "As long as people think that thegovernment is supposed to take care of them and protect them and thatthey can trust their politicians – as long as they think that, they'rein deep trouble. And, in fact, we are all in deep trouble because ofthat kind of thinking."A second, updated edition of World Without Cancer was released in 1997and can be purchased at Griffin's website, http://www.realityzone.com.You can also visit the Cancer Cure Foundation, an organization Griffinis a part of that promotes new information on the prevention andcontrol of cancer, at http://www.cancure.org.
