      I don't know about this one, Brian.  This company started its trials in the Caribbean Islands for which patients had to pay to play and filmed "testimonials" with no significant data to back their many unsubstantiated and overblown claims.  I actually researched this a great deal along with Dr. Peoples who is the principal investigator, including exchanging emails with him.  For what that may be worth….

      I wish  you all my best….c

        This last one is the consumate example of "fuzzy math".  Stage I data combined with Stage IV????  If folks want to sign up…good enough.  Just think you should be informed about what you are signing up for.
