Laetrile quotes

 

 

" It has been condemned as a worthless quack remedy by others because

they were genuinely misinformed or because they were BAREFACED AND

DELIBERATE LIARS. " —Dr Richards & Frank Hourigan.

 

" In truth, as time has gone on, I have found much evidence to make me

believe that the FDA had, indeed, done a great many studies on

Laetrile. The problem was they apparently had found that — when

properly used with other vitamins, minerals, enzymes and diet —

Laetrile could be very beneficial to many cancer patients. There was

no way the FDA was going to admit this! For more than fifteen years

they had been saying that Laetrile was of no value. To come out now

and say that they had been wrong was unthinkable. The fuss and furor

that would have come from the people of this country would have been

tremendous. Congress, rapidly, would have been forced to do away with

the FDA. To the government, this would have been a terrible loss.

After all, the " most important " function of any government bureaucracy

is to perpetuate itself. It is my opinion, and only an opinion, that

it was easier for the FDA to say that they had done no studies than to

reveal what their studies had actually shown. It was far less

dangerous to go through Administrative Hearings than to admit that

they were wrong. " ----ALIVE AND WELL by Philip E. Binzel, Jr., M.D.

 

" The anti-cancer effect of amygdalin was demonstrated in Mexico by

government sponsored reserach under Dr. Mario Soto De Leon and its use

is legal. Dr Soto was the first medical director of the Cydel Clinic

in Tijuana (taken over by Dr Manner) .It is very important that it be

prepared and administred correctly in sufficient dosage or it will not

be effective. The trial performed at the Mayo Clinic in the early

80's involved the use of the racemic mixture rather than the

levo-rotary form and thus was only 10% of the strength required. In

spite of this, towards the end of the experiment, the patients began

to show improvement, but it was discontinued and declared

ineffectual. " --Dr Robert Willner, M.D.

 

According to Richard Walters, Dr. James Cason of the University of

California, Berkeley, analyzed the compound used in the Mayo Clinic

study using infrared spectrophotometry and determined that it did not

contain amygdalin at all.

 

" Amygdalin (laetrile) is another key component for keeping cancer from

growing and should be considered a standard, entirely safe treatment

for all cancer patients. " ---- Dr. Atkins.,M.D.

 

" Laetrile is most assuredly a very potent anti-cancer factor but

requires stringent methods of use in order to succeed. Amateurs

invariably fail. High sounding U.S. pronouncements that `laetrile' is

toxic and ineffective are fraudulent and calculated to deceive. It

will become again one of the major weapons in the cancer therapy

armamentarium. " —Dr Richards & Frank Hourigan.

 

" " You get cats in with high fevers, 105-108 degrees. There is nothing

you can give them that will bring down that high a fever--except

laetrile. " ---Dr Kearns, DVM. (Dr Kearns uses 50mg of laetrile orally

until the leukemia is under control.)
