  • Cancer – Step Outside the Box
    What others are saying about Cancer – Step Outside the Box “Being a surgeon for over 38 years, and having reviewed many articles on cancer treatment and having had the experience from medical school to the present day practice of medicine, this book of Ty M. Bollinger clearly is a step outside the box … I highly recommend Bollinger’s book to be a part of your everyday reading and pass it on to your loved ones.” ~ Dr. Ruben T. Ong, MD, New Jersey, USA “I was diagnosed with terminal colon cancer. Ty’s book gave me hope, and it encouraged me that cancer does not have to be a death sentence. This manual became so precious – I thank God for the wisdom in this book … My blood was tested … and the following day… the oncologist said ‘Congratulations, you are cancer free’.” ~ Cobus Rudolph, South Africa “I’ve been studying cancer for over 20 years and have seen numerous friends and family members suffer and die at the hands of the fraudulent medical system … this book is the most complete source of information in one place. I recommend it when I do cancer seminars and expose the corrupt medical mafia for the criminals that they are.” ~ John Winstead, NC, USA “This book stands out because it is so compelling and enjoyable to read.” ~ Frank Cooper, Author of Cholesterol & The French Paradox, Australia “…an excellent book, well written and researched, clear and concise explanations on how alternative cancer cures work. A must for anyone considering alternative cures and confused over what to choose and why.” ~ Dr.
