FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE "CANCER-GATE" AUTHOR TO HOST LIVE INTERNET TALK RADIO SHOW MAY 17 Recipient of the 2005 Albert Schweitzer Golden Grand Medal for Humanitarianism, Dr. Samuel Epstein, to host show on the VoiceAmerica™ Network. CHICAGO, IL, May 13, 2005 --/WORLD-WIRE/-- Leading authority on the causes and prevention of cancer, Dr. Samuel Epstein, to host "The Cancer Prevention Hour" on May 17, 2005 at 8AM PST (11AM EST) on the VoiceAmerica™ Health & Wellness Channel. His topic will be Avoidable Cancer Risks from Milk and Meat. Non-Organic Milk: Milk from cows injected with Monsanto's genetically engineered growth hormone is a different product from natural milk. It contains high levels of a growth factor, which has been strongly associated with major risks of breast, colon and prostate cancers. Non-Organic Meat: Meat from cattle injected with sex hormones to gain weight prior to slaughter is contaminated with high levels of these hormones which pose risks of breast and other cancers. Also, irradiation of meat, increasingly used for school lunches, produces profound chemical changes which pose risks of cancer, besides other toxic effects. "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.
