Who is Responsible for Your Health?
This week’s issue of THB Undercover has stirred up quite a few comments on the website – a fair amount of praise and some criticism. If you did not get a chance to read Your Body Already Knows the Cure for Cancer, I hope you will.
THB reader, Terrence calls it “one of the best and most succinct articles I’ve ever read about cancer.” Angela writes, “This is the most informative, yet simplistic article I have ever read.” And Pam says, “Thank you for speaking the truth.”
Andrew agrees with me that the medical establishment focuses too much on expensive, ineffective and potentially deadly “treatments” for cancer, while virtually ignoring the causes and prevention of the disease. “How about we devote more resources to examining the causes?” he asks. “And most importantly, focusing on how we can prevent it!”
But it was not all kudos. Several of our readers took issue with my contention that most of us develop cancer because of our habits and lifestyle. “Sounds great,” writes Ann. “But unfortunately there are plenty of people who have been doing all the “right” things for many decades and still get cancer.”
Robert says Ann has the right idea. “If it were this simple, those who always eat right would never get cancer.” He also did not like my statement that in the vast majority of cases, cancer is a disease we give to ourselves. Robert notes that I did not back that up with evidence. He also suggests that my article serves a “healthy dose of guilt on those who have supposedly given cancer to themselves.”
This Part of the Aging Process Is OPTIONAL
Creaky joints. Exhaustion. Bedroom "meltdowns." As unpleasant as these things are, there’s just nothing we can do about it. It’s a normal part of getting older. Right?
WRONG. Thanks to a recent scientific breakthrough, you no longer have to accept aging as inevitable. Find out how to get your hands on this discovery before anyone else right here.
In Most Cases, Cancer is Preventable…
My evidence that cancer is primarily a disease that we “give to ourselves” comes from rigorous evaluations done by the International Agency for Research in Cancer. This group has concluded that in 90% of all cancer deaths, the disease is caused by lifestyle and environmental factors.
That does not mean that cancer can be avoided in every case by eliminating these factors. In today’s world, some of the risk factors for cancer are impossible to avoid. And I am certainly not implying that a young boy who lives downstream from an aluminum smelter in China and becomes sick, “gave himself cancer.”
But the fact remains that in the vast majority of cases, cancer (as well as heart disease, diabetes, and just about every degenerative disease) is caused by the choices we make and the habits we develop over a lifetime.
Your Health is YOUR Responsibility
I believe that our government is criminally liable for allowing some corporations to willfully harm people with their products. And I believe that many corporations are criminally liable for the misleading way in which certain products are marketed and risks are hidden.
But that does not mean that the government or these organizations are responsible for your health. They are not. YOU are responsible for your health.
Would you expect to get out of a speeding ticket by telling a police officer that you “didn’t know the speed limit” on the road you were driving? Of course not. Ignorance is no excuse. Well, the same is true when it comes to your health.
For example, millions of people consume chemical sweeteners, like aspartame, every day. Do you think it matters that these people “don’t know” that this ingredient has been shown to cause cancer in laboratory animals (not to mention a host of other maladies)? Or what about the vegetable oils that we have been led to believe are healthy for decades? Consuming these oils in the quantities we consume them is proven to substantially increase the risk of cancer and heart disease.
Does it matter that the manufacturers of these products have marketed them as safe, and in some cases, a healthier choice? It certainly does not matter to your body.
Get caught breaking the speed limit and you are going to get a ticket. Expose your body to toxins and health hazards, and you will ultimately become sick – even if you had no idea of the risk. It is your responsibility to know those risks and avoid them. Pleading ignorance will not cut you a break.

I am in absolute agreement with you regarding the causes of cancer. I have a relative that has 2 forms of cancer and is not expected to live much longer, who never smoked and never lived with a smoker. What is being consumed and applied to the skin is critical to avoiding cancer. She has no problem drinking soda’s (13 tsp of sugar per can, as well as, phosphoric acid & more, no problem with sugar (which tears the cells up in our bodies), no problem putting chemical lotions to her skin & never reads side effects of the chemicals (the bloodstream picks up those chemicals when applied to the skin). Ignorance as to what you are consuming and applying to your skin is critical to diseases of all sorts.
Last time I mentioned amalgam fillings as a cause of cancer. Also to blame are antibiotics - they suppress beneficial bateria & allowing Candida to flourish, & aspartame (yes, that muck); the methanol it releases is metabolised to formaldehyde & formic acid (yuck) is also to blame. Dr Tullio Simoncini, a renowned Italian oncologist, believes that cancer is a fungus (book of the same name available) & that sodium bicarbonate will prevent & treat cancer. Now, the medical establishment won’t do a damned thing about systemic fungus, & yes, that is one thing you have to treat yourself.
Jon,
Thank You Jon for the courage to speak the truth! There are so many facets to this and so many lies told to us in the USA that the truth has become bleary. There are many causes to “cancer” but most come from something we did to ourselves either apparent or inadvertently. If and when you remove the cause, the body will repair itself if given the right conditions. Pure air, water, real food, exercise, and sleep. As you say it is pretty simple to cure cancer and that it is our responsibility. Thank You ETR & THB for keeping things “Black & White” and not the terrible gray we have been handed the last 30+ years!
Absolutely right! It is our own ignorance and belief that more educated people know best (whether it is our doctor or our government) and will always prescribe what is best for us that leads us to abdicate responsibility for our welfare.
I appreciate your insight on how we are not working hard enough to avoid cancer and your twice weekly mail about those things which can help us live better. But what I continually do not appreciate are the “Now just buy our pill or formulaic elixer” link ads without full disclosure
of their contents or scientifically why they work or why I can’t get the magic ingredients in natural foodstuffs available somewhere. The “pop a pill for what ails you” mentality is not what I want…please give me`ALL the info and I may even allow you to sell me what I can trust will make my life more healthy…KJR
You are absolutely right. Pay no attention to detractors. I have a personal story that proves you right in my eyes.
Cancer cure information is like an onion. There are so many layers to peel through to the core truth that most people never find it. Nor do they really care although they feel virtuous in having attempted to learn.
Thanks so much for this newsletter. Keep it up; you’re trustworthy.
Thanks for both articles. It’s advice we need to hear. Thanks, too, in advance for any further info you can provide to educate and to help us fine tune the healthful practices needed to resist degenerative diseases and live without the fear that we may be next.
Love this newsletter and I’m so glad to have you back at the helm, Jon.
Dear Jon,
Thank you for being so passionate about helping people recognize that their health is their responsibility. As you know from our talk with Maria in the lobby at ETR, I believe 100% that our health is a culmination of our “habits.”
Be outspoken. Stay committed. So many lives depend on Truth.
About criminal liability: This issue needs to snowball until the full extent of the criminality is acknowledged and compensated. Why does a company like Monsanto continue to destroy genetic and environmental integrity, for example, and continue to do business as usual?
When one individual dies, it is one out of an endless number. For the damage that Monsanto has already done, which is incalculable, it should be fined out of existence.
We do not owe any business the right to exist unless it promotes life, not destroys it.
The power to achieve this goal should be shifted from the powers that be to all of as individuals. There is as much or more savvy residing within us collectively than all the pushers can muster on the wrong side of this issue.
I hope that this is the beginning of an unstoppable avalanche of people power.
Cancer is big business - witness all the “pink” stuff that’s shown up everywhere this year! And I refuse to support the “Race for the Cure”, the “Shirt for the Cure”, the “Potato for the Cure”, the “WHATEVER for the Cure”! On principle! As Jon says, there already IS a cure!!!! It’s just not backed by the pharmaco-industrial complex’s big bucks!
Want some real answers and solutions to the cancer epidemic? Read “Outsmart Your Cancer” by Tanya Harter Pierce, M.A., MFCC. After spending more than a year of researching alternative cancer treatments and how to lower the risk of developing cancer (Yes, you can!) this is the book in a nutshell. The author sites excellent resources for further study in each chapter and encourages the reader explore the many options available – that you will NEVER hear about from mainstream doctors – before deciding on a course of action. While prevention is key (healthy diet and lifestyle) treatment should be your choice – not the “standard of care”– that is failing so many!
