" In 1956, Hardin Jones wrote "If one has cancer and opts to do nothing at all, he will live longer and feel better than if he undergoes radiation, chemotherapy or surgery, other than when used in immediate life-threatening situations.' " In the 1990s, a group of cancer specialists were asked what they would do if they were diagnosed with prostate cancer, and most of them said they would do nothing." -Ray Peat

ME: "Good morning Dr. Peat! I see a lot of studies demonizing sugar, but in the studies they use high fructose corn sugar, is that a fair study?" RP: "No, only demons *would claim such things to be scientific. The people who do those experiments are participating' in; effectively, a big cultural t conspiracy. Looking at the history of nutrition research, the demonization of cholesterol and sugar: began under the influence of industries and government with ulterior motives.

"HARRY RUBIN GAVE A LECTURE THAT CRITICIZED THE CANCER ESTABLISHMENT'S CLAIM THAT IT WAS CURING CANCER. HE CITED A STUDY BY A PATHOLOGIST WHO HAD LOOKED FOR CANCER IN THE TISSUES OF PEOPLE WHO HAD BEEN KILLED IN ACCIDENTS. HE FOUND IDENTIFIABLE CANCERS IN THE TISSUES OF EVERYONE OVER THE AGE OF FIFTY THAT HE EXAMINED. IF EVERYONE OVER 50 HAS HISTOLOGICALLY DETECTABLE CANCER. THEN THE USE OF BIOPSY SPECIMENS AS THE BASIS EOR DETERMINING WHETHER A PERSON NEEDS TREATMENT HAS NO SCIENTIFIC BASIS." -RAY PEAT

"IN ONE STUDY (3000 PEOPLE, 4 YEARS), THERE WAS A CLEAR INCREASE IN MORTALITY IN THE INDIVIDUALS WHO ATE LESS SALT. AN EXTRA FEW GRAMS OF SALT PER DAY WAS ASSOCIATED WITH A 36% REDUCTION IN "CORONARY EVENTS" (ALDERMAN, ET AL., 1995). ANOTHER STUDY (MORE THAN 11,000 PEOPLE, 22 YEARS) ALSO SHOWED AN INVERSE RELATION BETWEEN SALT INTAKE AND MORTALITY (ALDERMAN, ET AL., 1997)." @raymendeat -RAY PEAT-

"Doctrines are admitted into the "scientific canon" by those who have the power of censorship. In astronomy, Halton Arp's discovery of anomalous" galactic red shifts is practically unknown, because the journal editors say the observations are "just anomalies," or that the theories which could explain them are unconventional; but the actual problem is that they are strong evidence against The Big Bang, Hubble's Law, and the Expanding Universe. American science since the 1940s, has probably been the most censored and doctrinaire in the world." Ray Peat
