Cancer is a multibillion dollar a year industry and the snake oil salesmen are out there in full force stealing your money and giving you false hope. See http://www.quackwatch.org/00AboutQuackwatch/altseek.htmlEven the ACS has an article against it (POLYMVA): http://www.cancer.org/docroot/ETO/content/ETO_5_3X_Poly-MVA.asp?sitearea=ETOShameless bastards. They should all be thrown in jail. Congress and the FDA should be taken to task for not better protecting the public against charlatans like this. If you hear of persons or companies, particularly in herbal or alternative medicines making claims about anything, intended to "modify the structure in the human body" (i.e. act like a prescription drug) TURN THEM IN! http://www.fda.gov/cder/index.html
