What I sent to another newsgroup when this surfaced ---
My Internet connection is too slow to look at movies. But I can tell you
that the Hoxsey tonic (invented by Hoxsey in 1920) is one of the treatments
used by the Biomedical centre in Tijuana, and that it doesn't work very
well. Even the users seem to recognize its limitations as they add to it
bovine cartilage, BCG vaccine, dimethylsuphoxide, thymus extract, liver,
vitamins, garlic, and other agents trying to get something that does
anything. Of
149 patients with a variety of cancers including locallised disease and 6%
with "no evidence of disease" only 17 were known to be alive five years
later when one group of researchers looked at their patients.
