Would it surprise you to know that as far back as 4,000 years ago, intentional castration was used to create eunuchs and control sexual function? What if I told you the ancient Romans ingested animal testes to promote fertility and strength?

Cancer therapies are continually being researched to provide the best patient outcomes. Less side effects, longevity and cure rates are what is sought after.
