this is interesting...if only

Wouldn't it be interesting "IF" (now that is a big big if)
the answer to defeating cancer would be found in another drug? How often we have heard how a drug which was developed for one use turns out to be better for another disease.

You might be interested in a product called Protocel.
You can google it.
Look into a book called "Outsmart Your Cancer" and go to elonnascorner.com and check out the her story and the stories of others. Its very interesting.
