“Red blood cells are effective carriers of anticancer drugs, as demonstrated by recent scientific studies.”
Recent studies do support red-blood-cell-based systems as promising anticancer drug carriers. Multiple peer-reviewed papers show improved delivery and, in some animal tumor models, better efficacy or lower toxicity. The key caveat is that most of this evidence is preclinical, so the claim should not be read as proof of established effectiveness in human cancer care.
“Exclusion zone water forms on arterial walls and acts as an impenetrable barrier that prevents LDL cholesterol, red blood cells, and other large blood components from accessing the arterial endothelium.”
No credible scientific evidence supports the existence of an "impenetrable" exclusion zone water barrier on arterial walls that blocks LDL or red blood cells. Peer-reviewed vascular biology research consistently demonstrates that LDL reaches and crosses the arterial endothelium via transcytosis and paracellular transport — processes central to atherosclerosis. While exclusion zone phenomena have been observed near hydrophilic surfaces in laboratory settings, the mechanism remains disputed, and no study has demonstrated such a barrier in living arteries.
