I'm confused and would appreciate confirmation of either:
Johns Hopkins Update - truth or rumor
I googled this and found this: "Cancer Info From Johns Hopkins Hoax Email"
http://www.hoax-slayer.com/cancer-tips-john-hopkins.shtml
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ also:
"Cancer Update from Johns Hopkins University- Fiction!"
http://www.truthorfiction.com/rumors/j/johnshopkinscancer.htm
Summary of the eRumor:
A lengthy email about cancer and nutrition said to have been published by the famous Johns Hopkins University.
The Truth:
The suggestions in the email do not appear to have come from any reputable medical source and Johns Hopkins University says it did not come from them.
In a published statement, the university said, "Johns Hopkins did not publish the email, entitled "Cancer Update from Johns Hopkins," nor do we endorse its contents. For more information about cancer, please read the information on our web site or visit the National Cancer Institute's web site at www.cancer.gov.
