>Sorry but this sort of thing is not new to me. Google "Milan Brych." Apart from the obvious similarities, my immediate reaction is that of course we all are drawn to easy answers to complicated questions. Especially emotive health issues, like Cancer. But if we see ourselves as thinkers, then we need to remember what it means if something is too good to be true.

>The question I would ask is: if a cure were available, why wouldn't every doctor do it? The evidence is that validated treatments are picked up *very* quickly by physicians. Whereas the conspiracy theories you see in these cases all require doctors to be amoral grasping cynics who block change for reasons that usually don't make sense. When asked for evidence of such tendencies, all you get are the usual few bad apples who make the news because their behavior is so abnormal.

That is mostly the point. It's not the doctors who are against this, it's the whole system. The doctors are equally confused as to what works and what doesn't. From what I know, this Hamer guy has a method, which can be easily checked. His diagnostic method points out to an area in the brain which should be undergoing a peak activity, and the scan (now EMR or CAT, I don't remember) usually confirms what the method predicts. And then there are results, which could have also easily be checked. But instead of proof that he's a charlatan, we only find FUD, refusal to check his results (Heidelberg or rather Tübingen) and the attempts to assassinate him from one side, and to take over his results by some of his disciples. So far we haven't been able to find a hole in his system while most of the opponents' stuff is far lower on the reliability scale. OTOH, his explanations work near perfect on real-life cases around us - and unfortunately, we've lost a lot of friends and acquaintances to cancer, who usually don't last more than a few months after diagnose and onset of therapy. OTOH, I have a case of an old guy who was diagnosed six years ago, with a prognosis of two years if untouched, or five with surgery. He skipped the surgery, and he's still OK. The growth on his kidney hasn't moved a millimeter. And he doesn't even have any kidney related pain.

I actually don't know of anyone here who was diagnosed with cancer and lived more than a few months after that, but him. Sometimes I feel I know more dead than living people.

Don't know whether this Brych guy would be in the same bag at all.
