Beginning in 2011, American Naturopath Dr. Peter Glidden has been publicly speaking out against using chemotherapy as a treatment for cancer.
It is ineffective, harmful and is only still being used because of the huge profits the drug makes for the pharmaceutical industry and doctors, he said.
Dr. Peter Glidden is a licensed Naturopathic Physician and an outspoken advocate of Wholistic Health. He is the author of several books, including ‘The MD Emperor Has No Clothes’ and the trilogy ‘Leave Big Pharma Behind’.

In July 2011, he was interviewed by iHealthTube. In the interview, Dr. Glidden cited a 2004 study that “concludes better than 90% of the time, chemotherapy does not work. Yet it’s one of the main treatments in the battle against cancer. Dr. Glidden explains why that’s still the case,” iHealthTube said in the video description.
The study titled ‘The Contribution of Cytotoxic Chemotherapy to 5-year Survival in Adult Malignancies’ was published in the Journal of Clinical Oncology in 2004. “It was a 12-year programme, 12-year study,” Dr. Glidden explained. “They looked at adults who had developed cancer as an adult, not childhood cancer but adult cancer.”
“They did a meta-analysis of these people all around the world who developed cancer as adults for 12 years and were treated with chemo … And the results? Ninety-seven per cent of the time, chemotherapy does not work,” he said.
The actual wording of the authors was, “In this evidence-based analysis, we have estimated that the contribution of curative and adjuvant cytotoxic chemotherapy to 5-year survival in adults is 2.3% in Australia and 2.1% in the USA.”
“So why is [chemotherapy] still used?” Dr. Glidden asked and then answered his own question: “There’s one reason and one reason only: money. “
The video, titled ‘Chemotherapy Doesn’t Work 90% Of The Time’, is no longer available on iHealthTube’s website nor is it available on iHealthTube’s YouTube channel, but you copies have been uploaded onto various platforms, including onto Rumble by Inner Light (see below).

Fact checkers and the like, of course, came out in force to debunk Dr. Glidden’s claims, including Snopes who wrote a “fact check” article in 2016 about the statements Dr. Glidden made.
Some years later, Dr. Glidden referred to his 2011 interview during a webinar.
“Let’s talk about cancer, shall we?” he said. “It all started with this video that I was in a number of years ago [2011] … I had 82 million views a number of years ago, now it’s over 100 million. I simply was telling the facts, the truth about a study which showed that chemotherapy was only two per cent effective.
“Of course, it created a firestorm in the Twitter universe with everybody and their brother coming out of the woodwork calling me a quack. So, I thought it was time to have an adult conversation regarding cancer.”
He cited some cancer case figures for the US. “In 2016, there were approximately 1,685,000 new cases of cancer, almost 600,000 cancer deaths – which translated to 4,620 new cases of cancer a day and 1,630 deaths from cancer.
“Now, do those numbers speak to you of a medical system which is winning the war on cancer?” No. He then explains how statistics is used to mislead the public to enable them to claim otherwise.
“While you are being inundated by the propaganda in mainstream media, by the way, which is funded in large part by the pharmaceutical industry, they have preyed upon your good nature,” he said.
