From the Montel show, curiously enough.

Just some added information about how retarded America is about drug laws, and how critical it can be to turn our backs on fast food and such.

Um...

This sounds like bunk to me.
But then I won't trust anything that won't reveal to me what's actually in it. If there were some miracle savior drug like this it would be seized upon in a moment. If the medical professionals were so damned desperate to get ahold of it, they'd buy some from the company and figure out what was in it. It's not rocket science. It sounds like snake oil to me. No verifiable facts, no actual information present.

Also for your reading..

Not that I neccessarily trust the FTC or the FDA but it's surely interesting.

Who remembers back in the mid 70's, a small child by the name of Chad Green.. and a 'drug' called Laetrille?

Parents pulled Chad from normal cancer treatments to give him this 'drug' distilled from apricot pits. Claimed it'd cure him. He died several months after, the cancer having run rampant.

Don't get me wrong. I believe alternative medicines CAN work. Some of them work quite well. But anything that claims to cure cancer, baldness, lumbago, and ingrown toenails is bound to be bunk.
