Announcements by the Consumer<br />
Association Make Me<br />
Furious<br />
It makes me furious when<br />
sweeping statements are made,<br />
clearly without checking and<br />
only based on dubious “scientific”<br />
reports, thus manipulating<br />
public opinion, especially that<br />
of patients.<br />
I assume that such comments<br />
are influenced more by a lack of<br />
knowledge than by the interests<br />
of lobbyists, but this is a highly<br />
dangerous state of affairs.<br />
My wife contracted three different<br />
types of cancer tumours.<br />
Besides the operations, she had<br />
to submit to more than 50 radiation<br />
treatment sessions and radioiodine<br />
treatment. On the<br />
long journey through more than<br />
16 years of cancer, my wife and<br />
I have encountered many different<br />
medical approaches. In<br />
1990, we stopped counting<br />
when we reached method number<br />
40! In all these years we met<br />
great lack of understanding and<br />
narrow-mindedness, having to<br />
fight for many things that<br />
should really be possible without<br />
a struggle. Mainstream medicine<br />
described my wife as a<br />
treatment burnout case and<br />
gave her six months to live in<br />
August 1986. But we have been<br />
successful in our search for alternative<br />
treatments.<br />

Enthusiastic Reader<br />
I will continue to commit myself<br />
to the <strong>Dr</strong>. <strong>Rath</strong> <strong>Health</strong> <strong>Alliance</strong>.<br />
I thank <strong>Dr</strong>. <strong>Rath</strong> from the bottom<br />
of my heart for his efforts<br />
and tireless educational work. I<br />
am also grateful for the monthly<br />
issues of ’<strong>Rath</strong> International’.<br />
It is very informative and interesting.<br />
I have to say that I have<br />
seldom read such a good journal.<br />
I can hardly wait for the<br />
next one to arrive, because it<br />
tells me how the <strong>Health</strong> <strong>Alliance</strong><br />
is working and developing.<br />
I wish <strong>Dr</strong>. <strong>Rath</strong> and his<br />
team a great deal of luck and<br />
success in the future!<br />

Interesting Press Article<br />
The editors’ attention has been<br />
drawn to an interesting press article<br />
in ’Die Zeit’. The machinations<br />
of the pharmaceutical industry<br />
are laid bare under the<br />
headline ’Pill Producers – the<br />
Shocking Revelation’. The article<br />
says: “Literally any old muck<br />
can be made into a medicine in<br />
Readers’ letters<br />
Germany. And once a medicine<br />
has arrived on the market, a<br />
couple of corpses would be required<br />
before any one in the<br />
medicines authority reacts. This<br />
goes to show the huge influence<br />
that pharmaceutical companies<br />
exercise over the authorities.<br />
Not many medical journals<br />
in this country dare to voice<br />
their criticisms, because they<br />
are largely financed by advertisements<br />
by pharmaceutical<br />
companies”.<br />

A Brilliant Book!<br />
Dear <strong>Dr</strong>. <strong>Rath</strong>, your book ’Why<br />
Animals Don’t Get Heart Attacks-<br />
But People Do’ is absolutely<br />
first-rate. I have about<br />
75 copies and lend them to my<br />
patients and colleagues.<br />
<strong>Dr</strong>. <strong>Rath</strong>, you are fighting<br />
heroically in the best interests<br />
of democracy and public health,<br />
