He died in Englewood, New Jersey .Cancer research Bulkley believed that the fundamental cause of cancer was faulty metabolism , largely influenced by unhealthy dieting. He recommended his patients to practice simple living and avoid consuming meat , alcohol , tea and coffee . Bulkley held the same view of William Arbuthnot Lane that intestinal stasis may cause cancer. He commented that "I feel like saying that the toxins produced by the millions of micro-organisms generated through intestinal stasis and fecal putrefaction, are the real, incidental cause of cancer." Bulkley argued that cancer is more frequent in advanced and richer nations, among people who indulge in luxuries. He noted that cancer occurs less frequently in rice-eating countries where little meat is eaten. He believed that cancer is a disease of civilization and can be cured by dietary, hygienic and medical measures without surgery. He firmly opposed the surgical treatment of cancer . Bulkley recommended a vegetarian diet, moderate exercise , a simple life without stress and sufficient sleep to treat cancer. His recommended diet consisted of vegetables, fruits, butter, bread and cereals. The occasional egg or use of milk was allowed.

Bulkley was the editor of Cancer: A Practical Quarterly Journal Devoted to the Best Interests of Cancer . Physician Albert G. Hulett criticized the journal for rejecting radiotherapy and surgery.
