Since 1973, the Cancer Control Society has brought
life-saving information to thousands of patients and their
families. The highlight of the year is when the CCS sponsors
their Annual Cancer Control Convention, featuring Medical
Doctors, Researchers, Nutritionists and Authors in Alternative
Medicine, sharing their latest findings for treating cancer and
other diseases. Over 50 speakers, 6 movies and 80 exhibits
are presented at the Sheraton Universal Hotel in Hollywood,
California every Labor Day Weekend.
In the raging war for Alternative Cancer Therapies, Lorraine
Rosenthal is a crusader. As a lab technician working on cancer
research for the City of Hope, Lorraine was impressed by
reports on nutritional approaches to cancer therapy. In 1973,
she left her job to open a health food store, then co-founded
the L.A. based Cancer Control Society.
Early days of denunciation have given way to grudging
acceptance by the medical establishment. In part, it's because
doctors are overwhelmed: in 1994, Los Angeles County had
13,550 cancer deaths. Treating cancer with anything other
than surgery, radiation or chemotherapy remains a felony in
California--and Rosenthal says she would not remain in the
state if she had cancer. She acts primarily as an educator
through the Cancer Control Society, offering a referral service
to clinics in other states and in Mexico and Europe.
