Turning cancer on and off?

Can we turn cancer on and off within our bodies? The rates of both prostate and breast cancer have increased in recent times and cancer is the second-largest leading cause of death in the U.S. -- but are Americans doing all they can to prevent all the various types of cancer?
It's hard to argue that since 1971, the $200 billion thrown at "fighting cancer" has given very little to the cause. Why is that? We have more cases of cancer than ever, so something clearly is not working, right?
Can taking charge of one's health and turning to a
completely holistic nutrition and chemical-free lifestyle (as much as possible) lead to one being able to "turn off" cancer? That's hard to say, but with many of the stories I've read (and patients I've talked to), living a holistic lifestyle can indeed have the greatest impact on cancer -- much more than conventional and even cutting-edge medical techniques and drugs. Have your results been in line with this kind of thinking?

1. I agree.
Checkout the following sites about some of the phytochemicals in broccoli that help to fight cancer:

Apoptosis is the biochemical term for "turning off" cancer and causing it to die. Both DIM and Sulforaphane in broccoli cause that to happen.
The relationship between food and health is slowly beginning to come to light with advances made in molecular nutrition.
