According to The SPOTLIGHT, The National Cancer Institute recently admitted that diet may play a key role in the treatment of cancer. This is the view almost exclusively of proponents of Laetrile therapy. A high ranking official of the National Cancer Institute told a Senate subcommittee in July that recent experiments nad raised what he called "the intriguing possibility" of using nutrition as a direct form of cancer treatment. It appears that it may be possible to adjust available nutrients in the patient to feed the host but starve the tumor. Laetrile therapy is viewed by proponents as only part of a complete nutritional regimen designed to build the body's resistance to disease.

Dr. B-- 17 Dennis P. Burkitt, who first identified a form of cancer known now as Burkitt Lymphoma, says, "Most Americans assume it makes little difference what they put into their stomachs as long as they are full. Magically, everything that goes in somehow will be converted into perfect health. They scoff at the thought of a perfect diet. Yet many of these same people are fastidious about what they feed their pedigreed dogs and cats or their registered cattle and horses.

The only animals who get cancer or Mlyps of the large bowel are those that live closest to our w'ay of life our domestic dogs eating our leftovers. Dr. Ernst T. the biochemist Krebs, who pioneered the vitamin concept of cancer, points out in The SPOTLIGHT that all the solved or conquered chronic metabolic diseases were found to be simple specific dietary diseases. Before they were understood, before the means of total prevention and cure were discovered, it was widely believed that these dietary deficiency diseases were due to viruses, bacteria. bad air, infection or some such cause. The Federal Drug Adand many ministration. state health agencies have continued to propagandize Vitamin against Laetrile, saying the substance is a drug and poisonous. Laetrile is used as a cancer treatment in many countries including Germany and Mexico. It is illegal here, however, so Laetrile proponents were surprised to learn that a U.S. District Court in Okahoma City last June ruled that a cancer patient may legally lie administered The court ruling says. "The court finds from medical testimony that Vitamin will be effective for the relief of pain and state of mind; that it has proven itself to be effective in other cases, with no evidence of any harmful effects that m ight be induced .
