IMPORTANT: If LABIOFAM, the
Cuban laboratory which produces this medicine, does not hold any
trade agreements with any other company inside or outside Cuba;
if it is the only company with the adequate capacity to produce
a medicine with the correct degree of certification and is the only
company authorized to develop and research the potential of escozul;
how is it possible that international distributors are able to meet
the high demand for escozul? Where do they obtain the escozul they
provide from? Could it be possible that unauthorized amateur breeders,
located in the Cuban areas of Guantanamo or Matanzas use other methods
or even other scorpions to obtain the venom? Either option leads
us to one conclusion: whatever they are selling outside Cuba under
the name of ESCOZUL or under a similar name is of dubious origin
and totally illegal.
International distributors; who are they?- These are groups
of people, outside Cuba, who claim to offer genuine escozul; making
the concept very ambiguous. What does genuine mean? Do they offer
a certified product? A bottle with a label saying "escozul"
is not enough, the medicine must be produced by an authorized pharmaceutical
laboratory and, furthermore, it must be certified. This is the only
way that the product can be subjected to regular health controls
in order to assure its good quality and genuineness.
Today, the only pharmaceutical laboratory which complies with such
conditions is located in Havana (Cuba), its production of the product
is limited and it holds no distribution agreements of escozul with
any international company. Why, then, there are so many suppliers
of escozul in Mexico, Colombia, Argentina, USA and Panama? Who are
they and what do these people offer? They take advantage of the
popularity and the properties of ESCOZUL and they trade low quality,
homemade ESCOZUL illegally. They charge a lot for diluted ESCOZUL
and use great media campaigns to promote the product.
They obtain ESCOZUL travelling to Cuba and contacting Cuban non-authorized
suppliers. They can pretend to be patients or to have distribution
agreements with LABIOFARM; but all they want is to take ESCOZUL
to their respective countries from where they will distribute it
among patients worldwide.
These people ensure a dispatch of ESCOZUL to any patient who may
contact them, that is, to the hundreds of cancer patients who decide
to choose alternative medicine anywhere in the world. Have you ever
asked yourself where do these people obtain so much ESCOZUL if the
Cuban suppliers only offer small doses to each patient? The answer
is obvious; they dilute the ESCOZUL even more.
How they work.- None
of these groups have authorization from the Cuban government for
the trade of ESCOZUL. They all say to have clinics where they
treat patients, but their businesses are based on electronic marketing,
mainly through their websites where they promote the use of blue
scorpion venom. We will talk about these groups next.
Mexico: In Mexico there are two main groups which distribute
ESCOZUL: the Dellser group and Corporativo Atlas group; but none
of them is authorized to distribute certified escozul.
1) Corporativo Atlas Group has
several Mexican web sites which claim to offer genuine escozul at
an affordable price. All these individuals belong to the same group
of people who sell "ESCOZUL" for two months at a sale
price of 4400 Mexican pesos. The reference page is www.escozulmx.org
, but there are many others (read
more information). These people have a trade network throughout
Mexico and they also sell ESCOZUL in Venezuela and the United States.
Moreover, in their web sites they openly state that they want to
expand the trade of ESCOZUL abroad, encouraging anyone, anywhere
to become a distributor of ESCOZUL.
2) Dellser Group. The leaders
of the Dellser group are Antonio Duek and Diana Arus; they also
own the site www.escozul.com Dellser is a Mexican health centre
which provides therapies using natural products. Different websites
imply that there is an agreement between Dellser and LABIOFAM in
order to promote their health products, among them ESCOZUL, in Mexico;
however this is completely untrue (read
more information).
Panama: At the beginning of 2007 we
published this information based on testimonies from patients and
on information from the website of the corporation Escorpion Azul
S.A. - www.escorpionazul.com. This site was closed immediately after
and today there is no proof that what we said is true. LABIOFAM
has no distribution agreements with any company.
"The owners of the Panamanian Corporation Escorpion Azul S.A.
claim to have a clinic where they offer diagnose and alternative
treatment with ESCOZUL to cancer patients. On their website they
claim to have an agreement with LABIOFAM for the distribution of
ESCOZUL, but this is untrue. Moreover, on this site they also say
that their mission is to invest in the research and development
of alternative natural medicines such as ESCOZUL, in which they
will reinvest up to 80% of their net profit. However, this Panamanian
site and its creators have been discredited many times on the Internet.
Bernard Campo and Ruben Tribaldos, the leaders of this corporation,
sell low quality blue scorpion venom. They provide ESCOZUL for three
months at a selling price of $1200 USD"
Colombia: Silicon
Standford is a homeopathic pharmaceutical laboratory
in Colombia that offers traditional Cuban medicine and homeopathic
alternative medicine. Among the products they offer is ESCOZUL,
though this laboratory is not authorized by the Cuban government
to produce this product. The ESCOZUL they produce is not genuine
as it is based on different elaboration and active principles from
the Cuban ESCOZUL. The Colombian laboratory produces a homeopathic
ESCOZUL with no scientific basis, and the solution they make has
been diluted in water 5000 times. According to their web page, it
is clear that "a homeopathic medicine does not require a health
register for its commercialization". This laboratory makes
a medicine that has not been subjected to any kind of health check
to certify its quality. Moreover, they say they use the venom of
two other Cuban scorpions, the Rhopalurus junceus and the
Prionurus australis, when making their ESCOZUL. Clearly,
what they produce is not genuine ESCOZUL as the certified product,
produced in Cuba, only contains the blue scorpion venom and it is
not a homeopathic solution. Clinical trials have demonstrated the
effective action of ESCOZUL in its liquid form which is administered
orally. However, Silicon Stanford produces ESCOZUL in cream for
external use, vaginal ovules and nasal spray. There is no doubt
that this laboratory produces a medicine without any kind of validity.
The treatment costs around 270 US dollars per month.
Argentina: On their website www.escozulargentina.com
they claim to have the authorization of Misael Bordier to distribute
ESCOZUL in Argentina. However, we do not know if after the death
of Mr Bordier these people still have the authorization to distribute
and sell ESCOZUL from Guantanamo. The truth is that the product
they distribute has not been certified by LABIOFAM and they do not
have the license to distribute it. The treatment for one month consists
of two bottles, of 900 cc each, containing a liquid of an unknown
concentration and that needs to be diluted five times before taking
it. The price for one month treatment is 175 US dollars.
Ecuador: It is not clear what the
Ecuadorian Vicente Rocafuerte Foundation
does exactly. They have a website www.escozulfvr.org
where they say that "their priority is to benefit disadvantaged
areas in the city and the countryside". However, this foundation
sells Cuban products, such as escozul, to these poor people for
450 US dollars per dose. They have a contact in Ecuador and another
one in the USA; their telephone numbers can be found easily on the
web site and they are ready to distribute the product worldwide.
This foundation says that the ESCOZUL they offer is Cuban, but they
do not specify the exact origin. It is believed that this organization
is somehow linked to the Mexican sites mentioned above which sell
escozul that has not been certified; evidence of this close relationship
can be found on their websites. How can they sell escozul to so
many poor people in the world if on their web sites they even say
that: "people must know that extracting the venom of the genuine
scorpion, which is very rare, is a very complex task that must be
carried out in a laboratory with the right equipment which would
ensure that the medicine is treated using the right temperatures,
which would guarantee its purity and eventually would produce a
mixture of adequate doses according to medical and scientific principles".
LABIOFAM is the only Cuban Laboratory able to carry out such complex
processes correctly; and they have no links whatsoever with the
Vicente Rocafuerte Foundation.
USA: Sherry LeRoux, a cancer patient
successfully treated with escozul, claims to have a clinic called
Cancer Hope Research in Las
Vegas (Nevada). They have a web site that has been very ambiguous
for a long time. When we started our website in early 2007, we published
the following information:
"Cancer Hope Research purports to work as a functioning clinic
that evaluates cancer patients and then refers them to LABIOFAM
in Cuba where, according to what they say, they will be treated
by different doctors, one of them Dr Ruben Tribaldos. However, Tribaldos
is neither a doctor nor is he Cuban; he is one of the owners of
the dubious Panamanian Corporation Escorpion Azul S.A. On the web
site of Cancer Hope Research they also claim that the patients can
receive the same treatment in either LABIOFAM or in Panama; yet
there is no connection between Cancer Hope Research and LABIOFAM.
Certain relationship between Sherry Leroux and Escorpion Azul S.A.
in Panama may exist. The site also says that if a patient is unable
to travel he can still obtain ESCOZUL through Cancer Hope Research".
All the above has been proved after the publication of our web
site in early 2007, when the owners of Cancer Hope Research deleted
all the evidence of what we have said; they removed the name of
the Cuban laboratory LABIOFAM from all their web pages as well as
the photographs of a smiling Ruben Tribaldos. Today, they claim
firstly that ESCOZUL is the basis of the treatment offered at Bordier's
clinic and at Cancer Hope Research, and secondly that the ESCOZUL
they sell at 2.400 US dollars per month comes from a clinic of the
Guatanamo Group that does not exist. There are many testimonies
about the reputation of Sherry Le Roux and her clinic on the Internet.
