(page 1 paragraph 4.) According to their study amygdalin caused a complete cure in 40.5% of people and relieved symptoms in 22.9% of people, from the 368 people treated. This means that a large number of people were cured something a medical treatment cannot do. Medical drugs only put people into a cancer free state called remission.
