The 'Pope's papaya' has been amply commented some time ago here in France. Pr Montagnier is a well known researcher....but no neurologist. His declaration that he recommended his fermented papaya to the Pope came at the same time as the announcement that that same papaya extract was being marketed at a high price in France. TV ads, medai coverage, etc. No one ever said the pope was taking the papaya extract. Not one article, TV program ever said the pope was taking it, only that it had been recommnded by Montagnier. Not quite the same thing. Asked about this so called antioxydant effect on AIDS patients, the Pr Montagnier said there was some unfinished study on 11 AIDS patients somewhere in Africa who seemed to be better after trying the famous papaya. Nothing written ( so he said). If anyone wants to try that very expensive fermented papaya, they are free to do so. It will certainly make someone rich Maryse cg John 73,13 > Dear All: > I know we have heard this before in our discussions.
