Guest guest Posted June 12, 2004 Report Share Posted June 12, 2004 How very sad. I've known many people that were helped by these products. The FDA doesn't have our well being at heart. They only care about the well being of Big Pharma. charlesmturn <charlesmt@...> wrote:Lake man pleads guilty to selling unapproved drugs (Note from edgarblythe: I don't make personal judgements by sending this, just being informative.

Caton ran a company called Alpha Omega Labs that made nearly a (m) million dollars selling alternative medicine over the Internet. He faces up to eight years in prison and a 500-thousand dollar fine. Prosecutors say Caton made 950-thousand dollars selling what were billed as natural remedies for cancer and other ailments. The business, which went online in 1999, was ordered to stop selling its products last year by the US Food and Drug Administration. The company still maintains a Web site, but offers a disclaimer that the site is for information purposes only and that no products are for sale. The federal charges involve two products the company sold -- Cansema Tonic Three, billed as a natural treatment for cancer, and H-30, which the company literature touted as a food preservative and disinfectant. Federal officials say none of the company's claims had been substantiated through approved testing and the products might have been harmful. At least one lawsuit is pending against Alpha Omega in connection with a " Cansema " salve that was sold by the company. No sentencing date has been set for Caton.
