C'mon man. This thread is the perfect example of non-medically or scientifically trained hack journalists transforming the modest claims of academic researchers. So-called miracle treatments disappear, not because big pharma wants it hidden, but because the media sensationalized an early finding.
One day, I discovered perhaps the most potent anti-cancer drug - concentrated sulphuric acid. That sumbitch killed cancer like crazy. . . I wonder why it never caught on? Must've been big pharma.
