"The good thing about Taxol is that it actually does both things at once," Bradke told MyHealthNewsDaily. "On the one hand, it basically gets these neurons to start to grow, like a crazy driver, and at the same time, it also reduces these stop signs, it reduces the scarring process," he said.

Thank you for the link. It was particularly interesting to note the plant origins of this drug. I know that "out there" exist in the plant kingdom answers to most of our health issues. The tough bit is finding them!
