@John Boy: yep, Steve had millions to spend to try save his life by sourcing anything that would make a difference , no alternative treatments did anything for him

@David Garland: alternative treatments? Like what? Billions are already spent worldwide on preventive measures, awareness campaigns and screening programs.

@Dermot Lane: For example processed meats have recently been labelled as a carcinogen.. Yet I’d say 70% of school children have processed meats in their luchboxes.. There are also links between Dairy and some cancers yet no government agency will come out and say this because it would destroy the agricultural sector overnight..

@Dermot Lane: They don’t have to go down the route of alternative treatments as traditional research has already begun to give results. We know the human papillomavirus (HPV) is an infection passed during sex which can cause a number of different types of cancer in men and women.
But we have a vaccine. Like everything in life, there are no guarantees and it’s not claimed to be 100% effective, but it’s close and better than no protection. However there are those ‘experts’ who claim it isn’t safe. We should also bear in mind that senior police officers and pilots claim to have experienced UFO abductions and the like, so isolated incidents involving qualified people prove little.

@David Garland: you could buy a lot of crystals and homeopathic cures for a billion, problem is that they would do f-all good, 100bn is only 14€ for each person on earth so it isn’t that much

@David Garland: Stem cell research is the only direction that medicine should go…….but big pharma will hold out as long as they can before that is the norm.

@David Garland: CRISPR… Google it

@Brian Boru: You cant make a vaccine against stupidity. That said you are safe from HPV unless you are that type who try to have sex with everybody out there.

@John Boy: That is the overly simplistic slant portrayed by mainstream media which is that alternative medicine killed Steve Jobs. The fact is that he had liver and pancreatic cancer. Look up the life expectation and the cure rate results for these cancers using conventional methods of treatment before you spout off about something you know nothing about. Here is an interview about Steve’s cancers and the complications: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kqt3H5YnO1k The truth of the matter is that conventional methods had already truly failed Steve Jobs before he opted for some alternative methods. Clearly, media bias exists where it was shouted from the roof tops about Steve Jobs death after trying alternatives, yet liver and pancreatic cancer patients are dying every other day whilst undergoing conventional treatment methods, and no one utters a sound.
