I did a Google search for it and most of what I found was
sites wanting to sell it, collections of ads, and sites claiming
it cures just about everything - not a good sign for how much
you should trust it to work.

However, I did find this on testing it in rats:

I didn't find anything on a scientific test of how well it works
in humans, though.
