In the 6.5+ years I've been learning everything I can about my lung cancer I've never heard of this. There are certain super foods that help reduce cancer risks but they do it by adding nutrients to your body.

Fenbendazole is a medication that attacks the worms ability to absorb nutrients. Worms are organisms with a central nervous system-cancer is not.

This sounds like pseudo-science to me. How would one decide a dosage? How long would you have to take it? Clinical trials are established for a reason. Look up thalidomide. Every bone in my body screams caution. Please think long and hard.

THe is absolutely NO WAY, I would I EVER consider putting something like this into my body -- to me it screams "don't do it"! I simply am not going to ingest anything without known the medical research behind it and that is have proven in clinical studies. I read a few articles about this (most pretty dated), and did not find anything that would convince me. I'll pass on this thank you and hope others will to. It so sad that know there are scrupulous people in this world who are always try to take advantage of those who are desperate to find a cancer cure. Buyer Beware!! Be Safe!
