 HONG KONG (Reuters) – Doctors appear to have safely and successfully treated patients with cancer of the blood and bone marrow with a
combination of arsenic and vitamin A, according to long-term study in China.
In an article published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, the doctors said they prescribed the regimen to 85 patients and
monitored them for an average of 70 months.
Of these, 80 patients went into complete remission and the researchers did not find any associated long-term problems in their heart or lungs and
there was no development of secondary cancers. (visit the link for the full news article)

I haven't heard of arsenic being used as a treatment before. So what do you think, will U.S big pharma allow tests to be run in this country on this
cure? I doubt that there is a way to get a patent on arsenic and or vit A so there goes there billions in R&D out the window. I am sure they will put
a spin on it soon enough. Thoughts anyone?
