Why Natural Cancer Therapies Never Get FDA Approved (DOCTOR EXPLAINS) | TBNS 1097
from The Brian Nichols Show · host The Brian Nichols Show
Dr. Francisco Contreras joins Brian Nichols to reveal why natural cancer therapies never get FDA approved and why the answer has nothing to do with a conspiracy. It's a $1 billion price tag and a missing patent... and the surgical oncologist who runs Oasis of Hope Hospital in Tijuana lays out the math. Here's the argument. Getting anything through the FDA means proving it safe and effective in human trials - roughly a billion dollars. Do that with a new drug and you get a patent to earn it back. Do it with something natural and you get nothing... because the day it's approved, anyone can make it. So nobody runs the trial. Not because it failed. Because nobody can afford to find out. Contreras has spent 45 years at the hospital his father founded in 1963 - the same hospital that got called every name in the book. And he doesn't dodge it. He talks about what chemo does well, where he says it doesn't, and why patients end up in Mexico for therapies he says were developed in American labs in the first place. Is he right? That's for you to decide. Brian pushes on the third-party approval question, the "nobody gets fired for buying Cisco" problem in medicine, and what a family actually does when they've been told there's nothing left to try. Contreras' answer... make an informed decision, and talk to your doctor. His book is free on his site so you can read both sides. Educated. Enlightened. Informed. New episodes every Thursday.
