Thank you for sharing this article - I'll definitely pass it on to some folks who will be able to give donations to the cause.

It amazes me - we have done so much research and learned so much on preventative care that is not being utilized or even publicized. I wrote an article (for a persona blog/site) on the benefits of saurkraut and learned that women who emmigrated from Poland to the United States were 3x more likely to develop breast cancer. This was attributed to changes in their diet - specifically, they consumed much less cabbage in the United States than when they were living in Poland. Cabbage and other veggies in the cabbage family contain incredible compounds and vitams that kill "bad" immune T cells, help increase the production of healthy T cells, target free radicals in the blood stream, and neutralize as well as remove chemo-resistant cancer cells from the body. Women suffering from breast cancer who included cabbage in their diet (at least 3x weekly) are also more likely to overcome it. There is application here for use in people with auto-immune diseases too. That's just one example of information people who are prone to these illnesses and cancers can learn and utlize to protect themselves, keep their health bills down, and decrease the burden on our health care system.

With so little funding available for this vaccine and other preventative treatments - it makes me wonder how much revanue drug companies will lose if these pro-active treamtents work, and if they have a hand in this.

Edited:
*Article stated that women were 3x more likely to develop breast cancer, vs 50% more likely (as I stated.) That specific statitistic/article may or may not have been total crap.
*Disclaimer: I am not a medicial professional. I write a personal outlook and nutritonal blog for others suffering from chronic auto-immune diseases.
