Healing Cancer: From the Inside Out delivers a scathing attack on a healthcare industry that almost completely champions standard allopathic medicine over homeopathic treatments. Hosted by Mike Anderson, author of The Rave Diet & Lifestyle, this documentary aggressively indicts the mainstream medical community for turning the treatment of cancer into a lucrative industry controlled (in many cases) by companies that a) profit from treatments that are often dangerous to the human body, b) manufacture carcinogenic products as well as medicines to treat cancer, and c) continue to make cancer-causing products such as pesticides and cigarettes while sitting on the boards of such influential groups as the nonprofit American Cancer Society. Healing Cancer casts a wide net during its first half, detailing the long war between allopathic and homeopathic physicians (several horrifying stories are told of brilliant doctors who believed in the healing powers of a plant-based diet, and were crushed by the American Medical Association). The second half of the film emphasizes cancer prevention and treatment through avoidance of foods (especially) that might stress those with a genetic predisposition to cancer. Although the advice here is hardly groundbreaking—plant-based diets are better than meat-based ones, etc.—the surrounding social, cultural, and historical information of this admittedly partisan treatment of homeopathic medicine makes this a solid addition to consumer alternative health collections.
