Synopsis
Cari Loder suffered from multiple sclerosis, a disease whose symptoms include poor vision, extreme fatigue and severe depression. It is widely held to be incurable. Yet today, Cari’s symptoms have disappeared thanks to a special treatment she herself devised.
Cutting Edge tells Cari’s extraordinary story and talks to fellow sufferers who have tried ‘Cari’s cocktail’. Their anecdotal evidence seems to substantiate her claim that a cure for this debilitating disease has been discovered. However, the medical establishment remains sceptical until proper clinical trials have taken place. Cari has persuaded a drugs company to take out a licence on the patent for the treatment. If their trials are successful, the lives of more than a million MS sufferers worldwide would change dramatically.
