HSI’s 13 Most Surprising Cures • 145
PectaSol-C, researchers only needed a fraction of the honokiol dose to get the
same stunning results—75% smaller! With this mix of powerful cancer-kill-
ing therapies, liver cancer may no longer carry the same grave prognosis. So
stay tuned! We’ll share these mind-boggling statistics with you as soon as we
possibly can.
(You can find the full HSI story on MCP in the March 2003 issue of the

Protecting you against cancer and Alzheimer’s disease
With all this research supporting honokiol as an effective yet safe cancer
killer, more studies are bound to come.
One promising area of research is in brain and other central nervous sys-
tem cancers. You see, unlike most other polyphenols, honokiol can cross the
blood brain barrier—a nearly impossible feat. As the most important organ in
your body, your brain warrants impenetrable protection against viruses, bac-
teria, and other infectious microbes. The downside is that most medications
(natural and pharmaceutical) can’t get in.
That makes brain and other central nervous system cancers very tough to
treat—especially with natural means. But honokiol can get in, and bring all of
its cancer-killing powers along for the ride.
On top of that, we already know that honokiol boosts brain function—
and may have the potential to fight off dementia and Alzheimer’s disease. One
animal study^8 found that honokiol increased the amount of acetylcholine (a
critically important neurotransmitter) released to the brain. And as long-time
HSI members know, Alzheimer’s patients generally have very low acetylcho-
line levels.
HonoPure™, your best defense against even
the most difficult to treat cancers
For the first time ever, 98% honokiol extract is available in capsule form
as HonoPure, giving you a fighting chance against some very serious cancers.
And while the published research on honokiol’s impact on cancer to date is all
based on lab tests and animal studies, the body of data proving its effectiveness
continues to grow. And as for safety, remember that honkiol been used safely
for centuries in Asia, to cure a wide variety of ailments.
The manufacturer recommends taking four capsules of HonoPure, three
times daily, for active support. They suggest that you gradually increase your
dose from one capsule daily to the full dose over a two-week period.
