if we can put a man on the moon, why can;t we discover a cure for cancer?

Answer 1

There are over 100 cures for cancer available, but. because the FDA refuses to approve them, then doctors are not allowed to talk about them.

I have always believed that the mainstream medical industry is not interested in finding a cure for cancer because it makes too much profit with its present barbarous methods.
Eventually, I came across a detailed report which agreed with my findings, and I have included it in my web page at

http://dgwa1.fortunecity.com/body/cancer.html

By reading this report, you will also convince yourself that it is best to ignore the mainstream cancer industry, and seek alternative cures. Also you should bear in mind that the medical industry will do anything to protect its profitable position, including disparaging alternative healers or even creating bogus court cases.

I believe that cancer is a whole body thing, which in 80 percent of cases manifests itself by producing symptoms in the weaker parts of the body, and therefore appearing localised. It is this treatment of symptoms instead of cause which creates the profitable, yet non-successful approach of mainstream medicine.

Some cures are listed on the web page too.

It is therefore obvious that a holistic approach is required, based on cleansing, diet, exercise and debugging.

This question gets asked almost once a day. Do conspiracy theorists never research? There is no cancer cure for several reasons. First and foremost, we dont completly understand cancer. We dont understand exactly what it is that causes cancer, or why it happens. How can you fix something when you dont know why its wrong? Then, of course, we currently cant detect a single cancer cell. If we cant conclusivly say there is no more cancer, then how can we call it a cure? Beyond that...... do you really think that every gov around the world banned together to say that they were going to hide the cancer cure? And even if you do, how many people would have had to have been cured to be able to claim that its a cure. People talk. Do you really think that everyone would keep quiet? And unlike the false hope miracle cures, these people would have the medical records and evidence to back it up. The gov isnt getting anything by having all sorts of people have cancer. In fact, the gov is loosing money. A lot of cancer patients cant work, have no insurance. Since my diagnosis, in Jan of 2005 the gov has been supporting me. It has paid all of my med bills (at an estimated total of a few mil after my stem cell transplant), its paying for my food, and I get a disability check every month. How many other people are that way. My monthly medications total 2000$ right now, paid for by the gov. Actually technically, by the American working public. And then, the money. Most conspiracy theorists assume that a cure would cost the same amount as current treatments. That is sooo wrong. If it was a proven cure, they could and would be charging more than you could imagine for it. I guess that only about 1% of the worlds population would be able to afford the cure, leaving everyone else still getting the same old treatments. Why do rich people get better? Someone else already said it. They have money and insurance. They go to the doc regularly before they had cancer, so when they are diagnosed, its at an early stage. They have good insurance as well as their own money to go ahead and start treatment immediatly rather than waiting a few weeks to a few months as they try to get insurance or fund raise for the money.

This is a trick question, because there have been some cures discovered for some types of cancer.The problem is that the human body is made up of hundreds of different types of cells and all those cells have the ability to become cancerous. So, cancer is a complicated disease. It's not just one disease it's over 200 types and subtypes . . some more deadly than others . . depending upon location in body, size of tumors, grade of tumor, stage of the cancer. Some people respond to treatment quickly, while others do not.

And, the reason for this is that cancer is not some type of foreign invasion into the body. It is a part of your body and responds to everything that the 'normal' part of your body responds to. If you eat well and stay strong . . well, the irony is that you will also feed your tumor well and it will remain strong. Many tumors develop their own blood vessels and nutrient systems and act as a parasite draining the rest of the body.

Doctors and scientists do know how to rid the body of cancer . . but unfortunately they do not know 100% how to keep the patient alive while they are doing this.

The most promising research is with stem cells, which unfortunately has become a political nightmare. It is the only cell in the body that never becomes cancerous. If researchers could discover the key to stem cells, it might uncover the cure for cancer and many other diseases.

A question ask by so many, for so long. The person with the answer would be quite a hero. I guess people dying of cancer are just not exciting enough. I suspect if will was there to find the cure, as it was to put a man on the moon it could be done. Of course our govts. would have to stand up & take over the research that would find that thing. Take it out of the hands of those making themselves rich on the backs of sick people. What drugs they do bring out are so expensive many can't afford them. Look at Africas aid problem. Then if they did find a cure. The ongoing sale of drugs would dry up. I can't see us winning this one. Most of us are to poor.

Answer 5

I saw a glimpse of a break through concerning lung cancer on our news here about a week ago. I didn't watch it intently. There are so many types of cancer, it's alarming. I wish we could find cures for all types for the sake of the world. If we have more dedicated scientists, maybe the dream will one day become a reality.

Answer 6

54 forms of cancer have been reversed using proper glycosylation. MIT says it Will change the world of health-care. In the early 70's the NIH did a study of lab rats with mammary tumors using one of the 8 necessary glyconutrients for healing. The tumors went away 100% every time. The nutrient could not be synthesized and made into a drug so what? Forget a bout it!

Answer 7

Politics. President Kennedy was so popular he could have gotten funding for any program he wanted, and he chose the moon. People were so focused on beating the Russians that they went for it. Back then, cancer would never have been a priority because nobody would admit they had it. People were concerned about the hereditary aspect, and you could lose out on an important job if there was cancer in your family. Funding seems to perpetuate itself, so NASA keeps getting money while diseases struggle to catch up.

Answer 8

the research done theese days in the search for cures pose many moral dilemmas, ie at what cost are we prepared to allow. certain tests done on animals the scientists say, are crucial to their development. but at what cost to said animal. if a cure for cancer was found. but it meant that many animals suffered, would we just accept that there has to be sacrifices made for the development of a cure,or spend many more millions of pounds/dollars on finding alternative ways of testing treatments, iguess we would all like to think we would find another way of development but at what cost to us humans.

Answer 9

cancer is a complicated disease. It is a wolf in sheeps clothing. It is only mutated or malformed cells created by the body or an organ. Medical problems are harder to treat the transportation. Is that what space travel is? hint the word travel.

Answer 10

a lot of companies would lose money if they found a cure for cancer. jerry lewis has been making money for muscular dystrophy since '69 and has earned over like 20 billion dollars (i don't know something like that) and they haven't found a cure for that so do you really think they want to find a cure? no
