Cancer patients prefer risky treatments with larger rewards to ‘safe bets’

Sanchez of Precision Health Economics, Penrod of Bristol Myers-Squibb and Goldman of the Schaeffer Center at USC, were co-authors of the study.
Second, did you know that cancer cells can be reverted into normal cells? This would be impossible with today’s technology if DNA damage caused cancer, but it is true and it is another evidence that cancer is not caused by DNA damage.
Dr. Royal Rife, a microbiologist, was reverting cancer cells into normal cells in the 1930s, long before the discovery of DNA. Dr. Rife also had a 100% cure rate. The AMA (American Medical Association) wanted his cure shut down and offered to buy him out. Dr. Rife refused their “offer,” so the FDA came in and shut him down. Rife’s technology has now been replicated using modern electronics, as will be discussed below.
Third, while it is true that cancer cells have DNA damage, that is not what causes cancer!! The real cause of cancer was discovered in 1890 by William Russell (1852-1940). Also, Dr. Rife, in the 1930s, knew exactly what caused cancer and this knowledge led him to his 100% cure rate. Both of these discoveries were made long before the discovery of DNA.
The Dr. Virginia Livingston, M.D. team of researchers, who knew about DNA, were the first to describe what was causing the DNA damage!! They discovered that the DNA damage cannot occur until after the cell is cancerous.
