I tried watching a Ted talk, something about answers that psychopaths gave on a test. I may try watching again, but the background music was really annoying. I guess the target audience for Ted talks includes people with too short an attention span to sit through a guy talking for 30+ minutes, but it sounded so dumb and annoying that I turned it off. Also, the buffering was annoying. I let the whole video play while I napped, then I went back to the beginning to watch but it buffered again.

Did they leave anything out?

In the above documentary, Dr. Burzynski had antineoplaston studies done without his awareness by the FDA, which were restricted to a part of his formula (which is the only way it works effectively), and was compromised in an attempt to discredit him. He still comes across as a quack and I posted some other videos on laetrile which was a different treatment option that has similar connotations. It does become very apparent that the government has attempted to find a way to either undermine or to control the outcome of the cancer treatments.

Update:
I've returned to this subject and see a lot of variation, with more positive than negative on their clinic reviews (which might suggest that they could have negative reviews removed,) to actual people that claim to work at the clinic calling them greedy and scam artists, and this is echoed the more you look at reviews outside of the Google platform.

So it wasn't L-Dopa that made Robert De Niro's character revived, but a demon possession?


The movie was based on Dr. Oliver Sacks career, which briefly gave awareness for people suffering from a neurological impairment.

I was thinking about it when reviewing a laetrile documentary I posted awhile ago, where it reversed cancer in mice but it eventually returned; and the movie Awakening is a bit like Flowers for Algernon.

At about 14:30 it starts to talk about Laetrile/Amygdalin


A company called Geron Pharmaceuticals just finished a Phase 3 study on Imetelstat, though I believe they have been doing flawed studies (according to people that worked for them as scientists) and the original inventor sold the company off about a decade ago. People were investing and waiting in line, only to die of cancer, and even if they had lived it might well have been a pipe dream.

While reading the comments on the Dr. Burzynski video, one of the comments mentioned the person's father who focused on a immune system treatment that seemed favorable, and the only article I can find on him is behind a paywall.

This may interest those who watch this. In the early 1960s a brilliant doctor/scientist (my father) Dr Sergio de Carvalho MD PHD Oncologist Immunologist and Hematologist was having outstanding results with cancer patients through an immune protocol. His work was suppressed or ignored. Shortly before his death 1982 he said " they don't want a cure ". I miss so much and think of him everyday.

The new movie is kind of crappy.

Covid (vaccine suspicions)
Not sure still (read the comments though as many have their own accounts regarding vaccines which seems suspicious. Some of it is too circumstantial.)


Documentary Died Suddenly

I still wonder if the above video is just confirmation bias with anomalies that usually don't arise following death and burial, such as overrun morgues, where clots are more likely to be found if a body has been lying in wait for burial. It's still very evident that problems like anemia related to vaccines (caused by blood issues which seem to follow after taking one) as well as heart related issues, seem to be popping up in otherwise healthy people (perhaps people are just paying more attention to such issues even though they have been around for some time?)

To get some idea of his treatment and how it's perceived, read the comments from MDs.

I find it odd that he never mentions brain spectroscopy, considering it was a hallmark of his book (circa 2000s)

He almost sounds like a faith healer, where many aspects of a turnaround could just be limited to a placebo and short-term follow-up.

First time I heard of this Squaresoft game from 1998 (I might have just forgotten about it?)


Seems like a spiritual successor to Alcahest, with a varient of Personae and Parasite Eve (if based in a medieval-inspired setting.)
