WHEN LOOKING FOR CANCER CURES CAVEAT EMPTOR WHILE DIFFERENT HOSPITALS MAY OFFER DIFFERENT CANCER CURES AND TECHNOLOGY MAKE SURE ITS LEGITIMATE

It's true that different hospitals and medical institutions may have different science and technology to treat cancer. For example, experimental cancer vaccines or medications may only be available at some select academic medical centers with names like Johns Hopkins, Stanford or Sloan Kettering. But you should investigate and check out all claims about cancer treatment and cures. Warning Letters have been sent to 23 U.S. companies and two foreign individuals marketing a wide range of products fraudulently claiming to prevent and cure cancer, according to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration . The FDA also warns North American consumers against using or purchasing the products, which include tablets, teas, tonics, black salves, and creams, and are sold under various names on the Internet.





Those companies and individuals warned, the complete list of fake cancer 'cure' products and their manufacturers along with a consumer article on health scams can be found here, http://www.fda.gov/cder/news/fakecancercures.htm. "Although promotions of bogus cancer 'cures' have always been a problem, the Internet has provided a mechanism for them to flourish," said Margaret O'K. Glavin, the FDA's associate commissioner for regulatory affairs. "These warning letters are an important step to ensure that consumers do not become the victim of false 'cures' that may cause greater harm to their health."



The FDA urges consumers to consult their health care provider about discontinuing use of these products and to seek appropriate medical attention if they have experienced any adverse effects.
