FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE "CANCER-GATE" AUTHOR TO HOST LIVE INTERNET TALK RADIO SHOW APRIL 26 Recipient of the 2005 Albert Schweitzer Golden Grand Medal for Humanitarianism, Dr. Samuel Epstein, to host show on the VoiceAmerica™ Network. CHICAGO, IL, April 22, 2005 --/WORLD-WIRE/-- Leading authority on the causes and prevention of cancer, Dr. Samuel Epstein, to host "The Cancer Prevention Hour" on April 26, 2005 at 8AM PST (11AM EST) on the VoiceAmerica™ Health & Wellness Channel (http://www.health.voiceamerica.com/). His topic will be Breast Self Examination is Safer and More Effective Than Premenopausal Mammography. Premenopausal mammography, over a usual ten-year period, is an unreliable and dangerous procedure. It commonly misses a high percentage of cancers, and commonly makes false diagnoses of cancer. Also, the high doses of radiation involved pose major future risks of breast cancer. Breast self examination is safer, and more reliable, besides empowering women, rather than special interests. "The Cancer Prevention Hour" is based upon Dr. Epstein's groundbreaking new book, Cancer-Gate: How to Win the Losing Cancer War (http://www.baywood.com/, 800-638-7819) whose major themes have been endorsed by over a hundred leading independent experts in cancer prevention and public health. Each subsequent week Dr. Epstein will outline a wide range of reforms that could save hundreds of thousands, if not millions, of lives. "The Cancer Prevention Hour" with Dr. Samuel Epstein on the VoiceAmerica™ Health & Wellness Channel broadcasts live every Tuesday at 8:00AM PST (11:00AM EST) with re-broadcast 12 hours later.
