Cancer Informative Speech

Cancer is a killer. A very expensive killer. This year 12.7 million people will be told they have cancer. Their treatment will cost $20,000 per person although depending on the severity it can rack up to hundreds of thousands of dollars. $254 billion will be spent on their care. 1,500 of them will die today. What is being done to try and save them? (“ Helping Families Face the Challenges of Cancer”) In 2013 4.8 billion dollars was spent on cancer research yet there still haven't been any major developments. (“How Much Money Is Raised and Spent in Fighting Cancer?”) But much to my surprise cures have been sitting under our noses for years now but are being swept under the rug by the FDA,The Food and Drug Administration, all because of one little

Well now here’s the upsetting part: They are the ones causing us to have cancer in the first place. They control the Meat and Dairy Industry. Which big shocker…causes cancer. Obviously the things you eat impacts how healthy you are but you'd be surprised how much this is actually true. The hormones used on animals make them gain weight faster needing less food saving the industry money. The faster they grow the faster they can make a profit. The hormones are used to increase milk production as well as making the calves grow double their size in three months. That’s the same milk we drink. No-one wants to double in size in three months. “Thus, hormones can increase the profitability of the meat and dairy industries.”(“Consumer Concerns About Hormones in Food”) Even with out the awful hormones animal protein has been proven to cause cancer.(“Forks Over Knives”) There was a study done in China (“The China Study”) The people that didn't eat meat and stuck to a organic lifestyle shows no signs of cancer cells forming, while those who ate meat had the pre cancer cells all ready beginning to form. So cancer is caused by this consumer culture of eating every meal that contains something that was created in a lab that makes our pH more acidic, which we know is the perfect environment for cancerous cells. Same goes for fruits and vegetables. If it isn’t organic its sprayed with toxins meant to kill weeds, rodents and birds. Does

With out it our economy might just plummet. But each of us know someone who has been touched by cancer. And you probably know of someone who lost a loved one to cancer. Politics are killing us. The FDA’s job should be to “continue to…apply” what these doctors have been saying for years. As well as “make relevant information reliable to patients, colleagues and the public” (AMA Ethics V) which in the UK is actually illegal according to the 1939 Cancer Act which prohibits any cancer developments toward a cure to be shown to the public. Yeah I know right.
