The Cancer Industry: Crimes, Conspiracy and The Death of My Mother

Rate this book
Where is The Cure for Cancer?Have you ever wondered why in the past 100 years a cure for cancer has not been found?  You’re not alone!

We’ve all lost someone we love to cancer and we all want to see it gone.  But after spending $500 Billion dollars of our generous donations on cancer research over the past 50 years, the people who promised us a cure have given us literally nothing for preventing or curing the disease. 

Are they incompetent?  Or are cures and effective treatments purposefully being suppressed so the industry can keep raking in money?  It’s time to find out the truth.

The Truth About CancerAfter losing his mother to cancer at age 12, bestselling author Mark Sloan has conducted a historic and monumental investigation into The Cancer Industry to find out why she died such an agonizing death.  I’m here to ask the difficult questions.  Did my mother die of cancer?  Or was she murdered for-profit by an industry that cares more about making money than saving lives?

Backed by evidence from over 600 scientific and clinical references, The Cancer Industry will guide you on a journey into cancer treatments - surgery, chemotherapy and radiotherapy - as well as cancer screening tests - Mammography and The PSA Test.  Do they actually work or are they doing us more harm than good?

The Cancer Industry also includes an entire chapter on the question of whether or not cures or safe and effective treatments have been hidden from the public.  It’s time to find out the truth.

When I was 12 years old my mother died of cancer. I didn't realize it until years later, but the tragedy of losing my mother was actually my greatest gift: My mother gave me a story that could inspire others and a mind that could find the answers the world was literally dying to know. My purpose in life is to ensure that no child has to go through what I did, ever again.

Mark has published a number of books including the 6x #1 international bestseller Red Light Therapy: Miracle Medicine and two monumental works on cancer called The Cancer Industry and Cancer: The Metabolic Disease, both of which include a combined total of over 2400 scientific and clinical references. Never before has the root cause of cancer been so well documented and easy to understand.

Mark has been researching health, including hundreds of books, for over 15 years and has many unique evidence-based insights to share with the world. His website is EndAllDisease.com and he believes the goal of ending all diseases is not only possible, but it's only a matter of time before his message becomes universally known throughout the world.

Interesting reading

Interesting reading on the subject of cancer screening . I personally have never had a mammogram and I am almost 60, in great health and not taking any pharmaceuticals. My doctor asked why I would not have a mammogram and my answer was why? I will never have chemo or surgery even if the screening was positive so why waste the money. I am healthy and happy and very rarely ever go to the doctor. Last time was this year because I just wanted to check thyroid levels. All normal. So maybe I will go visit the doc in another 5-10 years. Mother nature does know best and I am true believer in if it is not broken, so not mess with it. I am in the medical field and seeing how patients are treated with unnecessary tests, treatments and medications have made me a firm believer that less is more.

I would like to see your thoughts and research on the current vaccine schedule out out by the CDC.

Finally the proof I needed

And what I suspected all along:

BOTH of my parents were murdered by a greedy, filthy industry that puts profits over people and perpetuates lies and misconceptions both in diagnosis and treatment options.

Mark Sloan, thank you so very much. Although I'll never get my beloved parents back, I can rest a little easier knowing the Truth. My poor parents completely trusted this industry and lost their previous lives for it.

My distrust finally makes sense and I've realized, after reading this book, that I am not the "crazy daughter" who had the nerve to ask if other non-chemo and radiation treatments were available.

So sorry Mom and Dad. I am 10 years too late...

The Cancer Industry by Mark Sloan is a dissection of one of the darker truths about modernity - that evil is at the root of the cancer epidemic which threatens your life and your loved ones.

That might sound like pessimistic, conspiratorial thinking but it's the same conclusion that anyone should reach when they learn the facts about cancer, the profiteering of the cancer industry, along with the bane of bad science that wastes billions of taxpayer dollars while millions of souls suffer.

But this book is not all depressing, hope-crushing black pills. It, in fact, is good news and full of practical evidence-backed advice that should empower anyone worried about cancer. The pharmaceutical-hospital industrial complex would prefer that every one of us live in constant anxiety with the sword of Damocles of a cancer diagnosis ever dangling over our heads, learning the truth about cancer, as angry as it might make you, assuages much existential angst.

This is one book I'd recommend everyone read because cancer touches all of our lives, but it doesn't have to. It's a shorter book which you can read in a few days that concisely summarizes the science and lets people know what they need to know about cancer.

This misinformation is dangerous. Appealing to those who are desperate to find help in beating any of the myriad cancers that can affect humans, and profiting from that desperation, is truly deplorable. There is no conspiracy. There ARE many different types of cancer, and many types of treatment. As a cancer survivor (thanks to wonderful doctors and nurses, and actual medical research), I find this garbage intensely offensive.

Truth

I agree whole heartedly with this book. The book is an honest look at oncology. I had cancer 7 years ago and cured myself w/ diet, supplements, and herbs and have remained cancer free since.

Mind-Blowing

This book is a total eye-opener. Definitely worthwhile reading for everyone. Has given me a lot to think about in how I view the medical industry as well as how I approach making decisions for my own health. Highly recommend.

Must read!

Doesn’t surprise me the healthcare (actually sick care) is profiting by keeping people sick. Really sad. Great informative book and a quick read that everyone honestly should read. I will never get a mammogram or let my husband get a PSA test.

Masterwork & Must read on cancer treatment.

Stunning and beautiful masterwork on the truth behind the traditional cancer treatment industry. A highly reccomended must read for anyone who's life has been touched by cancer. As a stage 4 survivor myself who only had chemotherapy done and deeply regret it. I am so approciative that Mark has masterfully put so much scientific proof and medical research in one book to easily educuate anyone who reads it on the unbiased objective reality that chemo, radiation and surgery generally is fatal than helpful. And clears up the biggest misconception in health and medicine which is when cancer deaths are talked about the word "treatment" is silent. This is something I fortunate to rapidly learned myself by doing chemo and thenhaving barbaric life long treatment plans aggressively pushed on me by multiple oncologists AFTER being cancer free and in perfect health for a year, from on of the top rated cancer centers in the country that also works directly with the NCI. This book tells you everything you need to know about cancer treatment and more importantly it tells you what the cancer industry wont tell you which is the ugly truth about traditional cancer treatmwnra actual reaults. Thank you Mark, you truly honored your mom and all cancer patients with this revolutinary helpful book. I finahed it in less than 24 hours and it has instantly become one of my favorite books ever! Excellent work!

Wow, this is an awesome and impassioned plea to the reader to consider that the harms of Cancer are in the Standard of Care (treatments) of the disease. And that the reasons for these Known Harmful/Fatal treatments is economic gain by our Medical and Pharmaceutical Industry. I do not know if there is debate between this author's opinions/research and your results may vary from the deeply pessimistic attitude this author holds for the Cancer Treatment Industry's methods and practice. But I for one, will be share this book reference with Anyone I know who has been given such a diagnosis and is considering subjecting themselves to the outlined treatment described by the book.

This book is 193 pages. It contains 41 pages of References. Gives you a lot to follow up with if you choose. I was totally turned off on page 6 when Mr. Sloan was telling us he went to college and earned a diploma in Fire Sciences. He stated, "In my final year one of my roommates showed me a documentary that made me question my entire reality and the world around me". BUT, he fails to mention the title of the documentary! If anyone out there finds out, please let us know. Sounds like one hell of a documentary!

I was so excited to read this book. One of my professors had mentioned something about the cancer bigwigs suppressing potentially life-saving cancer treatments that would effectively dismantle the “for-profit” element of this industry, and I was (and still am) curious to learn more.

However, I was disappointed; while well-researched (even if outdated), Sloan immediately disregards a very important rule when considering statistics: correlation does not equal causation. Because this entire book is making direct causation claims, the author’s credibility is severely diminished.

While the insight of specific professionals in the field was eye-opening, their quotations often sometimes took on an emotional charge that was not contextualized, but rather used as supporting “evidence”. Who are these people, and what are their motivations for making these statements? He himself said that doctors, even well-meaning, can be manipulated into making false statements! Am I just supposed to trust these individuals when I apparently can’t even trust what the AMA puts out?

While I can definitely see what he’s getting at here, especially given how much $ the cancer industry rakes in, this feels rushed. What about elaborating on Einstein’s warning? What is The Lincoln Treatment? What happens when professionals try and speak up against healthcare as a business? What other successful preventative findings have been carefully buried to maintain dependency on potentially harmful “treatment” options? What can someone who is diagnosed with cancer and vulnerable to these traps realistically do to increase their chance at survival? It feels like his solution is to do nothing and wait it out. Are there any other options?

Making causation claims and painting “them” as the bad guys is easy - statistics are easily manipulated to reach certain conclusions. But what can be done, and how can the average Joe, especially one diagnosed as a cancer patient, stop themselves from becoming a victim of The System? What research is currently being ignored that has the potential to disrupt “The Big Conspiracy”?

Also, the references at the end drive the page number up by a lot.

Eye-opening and alarming...

As a naturopathic doctor who doesn't specialize in oncology (I always refer out for that), I always more or less believed what we were taught in school: that integrative cancer care is the best way, screening tools save lives, and the best naturopathic care can offer is to try to minimize side effects of chemo. I've referred many patients for routine screenings, though I've been increasingly uncomfortable with this in recent months, as I've seen headlines in some of my favorite newspapers questioning the safety and usefulness of such screenings.

This book makes me question a whole lot more. I do know that the book, while very well-written and well-researched, was written by a non-clinician, so I have to wonder if there is another side to the story... though it's hard to imagine that their could be, he makes a pretty air-tight case. I have colleagues who are naturopathic oncologists, and I wonder now how much of this they truly know. I had always kind of wondered whether naturopathic principles wouldn't be better than the aggressive cancer industry treatments, and whether they're being suppressed due to "standard of care" and liability rules, but I just didn't know. I think I'll have to do my own additional research to settle some of these questions... as the Bible says, let every matter be settled by two or three witnesses.

This book is full of good intentions, but is criminally outdated.
I'm a cancer patient with Multiple Myeloma and, at least, in my case, there was no chance of getting better without medical help... and I'm getting better!
The idea the cancer is a business were you need the patients to die to make money is no longer true. Actually now is the the other way around. The treatments are way more expensive then letting you die, and the longer you live, the more treatments you can get... But that's also bullshit.
Cancer medicine and cancer treatments had advanced immensely the last 5 years and now doctors can do things they could only dream about. My cancer, for example, has a life expectancy of 2 to 7 years in 2018. Now I have an 80% chance of remission. I already went from 80% of cancer cells to minus then 1% and I'm heading to Bone Marrow Transplant. I only took 10 radiation sessions and 5 cicles of Quimo, most of it by pills. Trust the science, trust your doctors... and if you don't, then try whatever you trust, but don't lose hope. Also, there are good doctors out there. Find one you can trust and get better.
Cancer is no longer a terminal desease, but a chemical condition.

the layman’s comprehensive guide to the cancer business/industry

I like Mark Sloan because he writes books in a way that is understandable for those who don’t want to get in the weeds with the science. It’s like a Cliff Notes version of all the important facts they need to know to help them make decisions should they need to at some point, or if they’re just interested. Personally, I enjoy the science too, but these are the books I recommend to friends who don’t have the patience or the will to get any deeper yet still are interested to learn and want real information. All his books are worth taking the time to read to get a broader knowledge base for having the tools you need should you need them at some point and don’t know where to turn.

Okay, now that we have come to the conclusion that the medical industry is all for profit and really does not help cancer in any impact full way. Now What? What are the solutions? Do nothing, go completely alternative medicine? I want to like this book as I think there are definitely some merits to his claims but the bigger question remains after you have been diagnosed with cancer and read the book. Now what? The book doesn't answer that question and not providing reliable, repeatable solutions is a problem as it just leaves you more unsure, with no direction in which to get the answers. In my opinion that's a waste of money, time and mental clarity.

Reboot you're thinking on cancer

Dare to change from conventional institutional thinking on cancer and look at the situation and facts differently. You've may very well come to a different conclusion and treatment plan based on the revelations in this book than what the main stream would have you do.

I THINK THE AUTHOR WAS IN A SITUATION THAT MADE HIM JUSTIFIABLY BIASED DUE TO THE LOSS OF THIS MOTHER. AS A CANCER SURVIVOR MY SELF I FIND THAT I CAN AGREE WITH MUCH OF WHAT HE WRITES, HOWEVER, I CHOSE TO HAVE ONLY THE SURGERY AND WHILE I WAS A PRETTY SICK GUY AFTER THE SURGERY, I HAVE RECOVERED AND CREDIT THE SURGERY WITH POSSIBLY HAVING SAVING MY LIFE. I HAVE FIRST HAND KNOWLEDGE OF THE BRUTAL TREATMENT THAT RADIATION AND/OR CHEMO INFLICT ON A PERSON. HOPEFULLY BEFORE LONG, THEY WILL FIND A MORE HUMANE, SUCCESSFUL CURE FOR CANCER. I HAVE TO WONDER HOW MANY ILLNESSES THAT THEY CLASSIFY AS CANCER DUE TO A LACK OF PRESENT KNOWLEDGE BY MEDICAL SCIENCE. I PRAY A LOT.

This is a must-read for anyone considering a cancer screening test or treatment for any cancer. This book centers on prostate and breast cancer, but it seems to be true in many other cancers. A lot of people are making money, shortening lives while diminishing quality of lives.

Eye opening!

This book is very informative and full of sources. I've long suspected that cancer diagnosis/testing and treatments are money makers for the pharmaceutical industry. If you want to look at cancer differently I recommend this book.

The author gives an indepth review into the cancer industry and has a ton of references to look up. So many years of research and tons of money, and still no cure....There's been cures for a very long time, but the industry doesn't want you to know....Definitely recommend

It is truly a sick world we live in when the supposed treatments for diseases slowly poison you while draining you of your life savings. The cancer industry is pure evil and there’s an abundance of scientific literature that proves how ineffective and barbaric it is.
