Good afternoon. Hi, everyone. Apparently, I'm going to introduce myself because no one's here right now. So let me just tell you that I am a metal fan. Colleges train at the National Cancer Institute, a tumor immunologist trained at the National Cancer Institute and also a radiation oncologist trained at the University of Pennsylvania. So I wear multiple hats when I see patients and we see about a thousand new cancer patients a year, mainly breast cancer, mainly prostate cancer. I hear ya. So let me just proceed on. This is a book I wrote. This is almost brand new. A few months old. The truth about breast health, breast cancer, prescription for healing. Who should read this? Well, both men and women. Why 80 percent of women get lumpy, bumpy breast disease that hurts that time of menses. One of every eight women develop breast cancer.

40 percent of men over age 40 develop gynecomastia get lumpy, bumpy breast disease also.

And 16 to 18 hundred cases a year of male breast cancer developed. So everyone could read this and enjoy better health. We know that 60 percent of all women's cancers and 40 percent of men's cancers are related to nutritional factors alone. And those cancers include breast cancer, prostate cancer, colorectal cancer and uterine cancer. Others included. But there are the major for almost three quarters of all heart disease is related to dietary factors as well, and greater than 90 percent of obesity and over 85 percent of all diabetics.

So nutritional factors are key.

Here's the one in eight women developing breast cancer. 1960 was only one in 20. So there is a rapid rise in the development of breast cancer in the United States. This is a very important graph. This is a graph that I got very interested in a long time ago when Vice President Humphrey was referred to me as a cancer patient and he died not of cancer, but a malnutrition.

And this one, I got very interested in fission and the link to cancer.

But this curve is very telling. This is a survival curve from the year 1930 to the present. And you can see the horizontal lines. I'm sorry. You can see the horizontal lines. Breast cancer, prostate cancer and a few of the other major adult cancers have not changed since 1930. This means only one thing, despite radiation therapy that we began in the 20s. Despite chemotherapy in the 60s, immunotherapy in the 1970s, despite the MRI scans, C.T. scans in the billions and billions of research dollars, we've essentially made no progress in the treatment of adult cancers, particularly breast cancer, prostate cancer
