Many cancer patients share tips about using scorpion venom for treatment support. Is this true?
There is no scientific basis for the cancer treatment effects of green scorpion venom.
There is a lot of information circulating about the use of green scorpion venom for cancer prevention and treatment, primarily spread through word of mouth and advertising on social media, with most claims originating from Cuba. However, leading cancer professors in Cuba assert that they do not use this product in treatment. There is no scientific basis for the cancer treatment effects of products containing green scorpion venom.
On the contrary, many research citations indicate that products containing green scorpion venom can actually increase the invasiveness of cancer cells. Patients need to be cautious and understand that products derived from scorpion venom are not miracle cures.
In reality, green scorpion venom is a multi-functional compound in medicine, with various studies confirming its pain-relieving effects and alleviating symptoms in end-stage cancer patients. This has allowed products derived from scorpion venom, both in medication and dietary supplements, to penetrate the market, including counterfeit and substandard goods labeled with inconsistent product instructions.
Vendors exploit trust to promote products based on the premise of activating the body’s natural immune response to eliminate cancer cells, claiming to treat various cancers such as liver, lung, breast, and gastrointestinal cancer in both early and late stages. However, cancer treatment requires many combined therapies, rather than relying solely on a single product or supplement to combat the disease.
People should not follow folk remedies, hearsay, or unsubstantiated advertisements that could jeopardize timely treatment. It is best to consult a doctor before using any medications or supplementary products to avoid potential risks that may arise from improper use.
