4. World Without Cancer; The Story of Vitamin B17
Author: by G. Edward Griffin
American Media
English
368 pages
Mr. Griffin marshals the evidence that cancer is a deficiency disease – like scurvy or pellagra – aggravated by the lack of an essential food compound in modern man s diet. That substance is vitamin B17. In its purified form developed for cancer therapy, it is known as Laetrile.
This story is not approved by orthodox medicine. The FDA, the AMA, and The American Cancer Society have labeled it fraud and quackery. Yet the evidence is clear that here, at last, is the final answer to the cancer riddle.
Why has orthodox medicine waged war against this non drug approach? The author contends that the answer is to be found, not in science, but in politics – and is based upon the hidden economic and power agenda of those who dominate the medical establishment.
This is the most complete and authoritative treatise available on this topic.

Mometrix Media LLC
English
112 pages
OCN Exam Practice Questions are the simplest way to prepare for the OCN test. Practice is an essential part of preparing for a test and improving a test taker’s chance of success. The best way to practice taking a test is by going through lots of practice test questions.
If someone has never taken a practice test, then they are unprepared for the types of questions and answer choices that they will encounter on the official test. There is a tremendous advantage to someone taking the test that is already familiar with the questions and answer choices.
Another advantage of taking practice tests is that you can assess your performance and see if you need to study and practice more, or if you’re already prepared enough to achieve success on your test day. If you do well on the practice test, then you know you’re prepared.
If you struggle on the practice test, then you know you may still have more work to do to get prepared. Taking lots of practice tests helps ensure that you are not surprised or disappointed on your test day. Our OCN Exam Practice Questions give you the opportunity to test your knowledge on a set of questions.
