According to an article by ScienceNews, it seems many scientific studies that paint cancer drugs in a negative light are not published.  And, studies sponsored by the drug companies themselves have the worst bias.  This, to me, is just plain wrong.  The scientific community needs to know how drugs interact and to know how well they work.  With not publishing the information, doctors are never given a chance to review the information, and so they happily prescribe medication without knowing the recourses.

This is why I really don’t like taking medication.  This is also why I’m a vegan as similar things go on the dietary world.  Lobbies from the animal product companies including the dairy and meat industries push the government into saying their products are healthy even though there have been quite a few studies, which are given little attention, that show animal protein is not healthy.  Yes, our bodies can suffice living on meat and dairy, but it has been shown that animal protein can promote the growth of cancer and just plain age us faster.  The book, written by T. Colin Campbell, called The China Study, demonstrates this clearly.  It is what prompted me to go full vegan diet after living a vegeterian diet for the previous year to lose weight.  It is truly an eye opening read.
