Cancer is a growing worldwide epidemic, with staggering statistics: 20,000 people dying of cancer every day; 1 person out of 3 will be faced with cancer at one point in their life; and 1 million Americans are diagnosed with cancer every year.
The standard treatment for cancer has been the same for many decades and is comprised of surgery, radiation and chemotherapy, the latter two being toxic to healthy cells in the human body.
These treatments, as well as the research surrounding cancer, generate millions of dollars each year for the medical industry, with a typical cancer patient spending on-average $50,000 to treat the disease.
Dr. Michel Obeid of Lebanon discovers major cancer drug
He said the medication works on activation of the immune system , so it detects cancerous cells and destroys them. The medication that he discovered was able to destroy about 90 % of the cancerous cells after a couple of weeks of treatment and the remaining 10% was nearly cancer free.
The research of his findings proved effective after carrying out tests on some 5000 mice he said.
Obeid also said he will soon start experimenting with human beings and as soon as he secures the needed funding and the registration of the patents .
but when will the government approve the treatment ?? what is waiting for? making some new pair billions of dollars?
Obeid affirmed that the cure will only cover the lebanese territory and will be much cheaper than the original leukemia drug...
but in the end we're asking : what are they waiting for?
“We have the human resources, we have excellent scientists, the only thing needed is resources,” she said.
“We have the human resources, we have excellent scientists, the only thing needed is resources,” he said!
