cancer kills african americans more than whites because we get poorer and the harshest medical treatment they have to offer due to our lack of resources to pay for better treatment. that's all major medical illnesses in the black community. that's why i'm into holistic health because i truly believe their is a better way than what people wish for us to believe. think about it, synthetic drugs didn't always exist...

cancer research is a billion dollar industry fueld by mostly charitable societies,tax free and the books are legaly kept from the world.All we got to show f4 this is costly drugs that only prolong life just a little bit to drain uor pockets more before the dirt is shoveled over our lifeless body.
