You trying to tell me that he didn't have 'mastermind' connections to these hidden cures loony tunes?

Like Bob Marley... Cancer in his toe but "hey man, Rasta will provide". To be fair, learning you are dying, being confronted with your own mortality and knowing its all over and you have only a small chance of survival, you're going to be vulnerable and looking for control. Or Farrah Facet that openly admitted she'd killed herself by avoiding traditional treatment.
I have a great childhood friend that is a naturopathic doctor and specializes in oncology. Even he and all his hippy friends don't talk down traditional radiation, chemo and drugs. They can tell you a lot of things to eat and do to minimize the side effects, but that's it. At the end of the day, it's stress, ability to cope with stress, attitued and outlook, diet, exercise and genetics... Not what plant you eat when you get agressive cancer that matters.
