The Golden Age, “A Cure for Cancer”

2 April 1930 · pp.434-437 · M. Q. · Golden Age Publishing Company, Brooklyn, New York

“If the irritation of a “chemical ferment” (such as a compound of aluminum) can, by any possibility, be considered a cause of cancer, eliminate all aluminum utensils from your kitchen.”

An article signed only with initials which recounts three cases of breast and internal cancer said to have been cured by living on grape juice with a daily warm-water enema, and endorses Dr. Betts's theory that aluminium cookware is 'a prolific cause of cancer'.
