In his publications and in internet websites of the “Cancer Communications Inc.” with postal address in Pennsylvania<ref>"Cancer Communications inc", PO Box 1076, Lemont, PA 16851, USA</ref> and in “Moss Reports” and “Cancer Chronicles” Moss on the one hand circulates demagogic views referring to orthodox scientific medicine (especially cancer therapies), on the other hand he tries to further certain [[unconventional cancer therapies]] without any proven personal competence in this field. Moss is regarded as an opponent of medical chemotherapy in cases of cancer, which he considers to be inhumane<ref>Ralph W. Moss: ''Conventional cancer therapy is so toxic and dehumanizing that I fear it far more than I fear death from cancer. We know that conventional therapy doesn't work--if it did, you would not fear cancer any more than you fear pneumonia. It is the utter lack of certainty as to the outcome of conventional treatment that virtually screams for more freedom of choice in the area of cancer therapy. Yet most alternative therapies regardless of potential or proven benefit, are outlawed, which forces patients to submit to the failures that we know don't work, because there's no other choice.''</ref>.

But when referring to some far out unorthodox therapies and obvious alternative medical humbug he also writes critical articles, so for example, in the cases of the [[Bicarbonate Therapy according to Simoncini]] or of the [[Germanic New Medicine]] according to [[Ryke Geerd Hamer]].

Moss is to be regarded as a proponent of alternative or pseudo-medical therapies against severe diseases such as cancer. In this context he advocates yoga, [[homeopathy]] or Therapeutic Touch. He is also seen as a supporter of the blatantly ineffective [[Antineoplaston Therapy]] (ANP) according to Stanislaw Burzynski. Moss also believes in the effectiveness of antioxidants in connection with Chemo- and Radiotherapy, although it is widely known that the formation of free radicals is essential to the effectiveness of these methods<ref>http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/16484715?itool=EntrezSystem2.PEntrez.Pubmed.Pubmed_ResultsPanel.Pubmed_RVDocSum&ordinalpos=9</ref>. Moss is also known to be a supporter of [[Virginia Livinston-Wheeler]], who was of the opinion that cancer originated in an infection with the bacterium "progenitor cryptocydes" and consequently advocated vaccination against cancer.

According to Moss there is a cancer business complex propagating corresponding remedies of the pharmaceutical industries pushing through their interests with the help of the National Cancer Institute (NCI), the American Cancer Society (ACS), renowned universities and the Federal Drug Association (FDA). On the other hand reputed US-American institutions are suspected of illicitly qualifying naturopathic therapies as ineffective or not sufficiently tested.
