And many people with good intentions have given you unqualified and unsolicited advice regarding
How you got cancer.
Why you got it.

By now you have heard all the scammy fad diets, alternative medicines, weed dealers, fasting options, supplement, herbal, and holistic “medical” scams on the market.
