In 1957, Rachel Carson got breast cancer, probably because of the pesticide she was studying and trying to stop. She died of a heart attack at the age of 57. Their was a wood she had wanted to buy when she was younger. She had not completed her dream to buy it, but she did stop DDT and the other pesticies,
In another story about his recovery in Ebony magazine in January 2003, Carson also did not mention glyconutrients. Carson said that there is a âdietary connectionâ to cancer and mentions pesticides and water contamination as possible causes. The doctor also scheduled the prostate surgery just six weeks after the initial diagnosis, suggesting that he thought the surgeryâand not supplements aloneâwas necessary to save his life. Carson also gave an address at the Niagara University commencement in May 2003 where he discussed his cancer as well. Yet there are no mentions of Mannatech or any of its products. The next year though, Carson began telling a different story involving his cancer.
