The Hippocrates Health Institute (HHI) is a nonprofit organization in West Palm Beach , Florida, USA, originally co-founded in 1956 in Stoneham, Massachusetts , by Lithuanian -born Viktoras Kulvinskas and Ann Wigmore .[1]
The Hippocrates Health Institute is regarded as controversial for supposedly treating cancer with unproven natural methods that are implausible despite claims otherwise.[2] [3]
In February and March 2015, cease-and-desist orders were issued against co-directors Brian and Anna-Maria Clement, both of whom represented themselves as doctors, requiring them to immediately cease the unlicensed practice of medicine.[4] [5] [6] [7] [8]
Brian Clement and his institute have been criticized for promoting a number of ineffective treatments, including ones claimed to "reverse" cancer and multiple sclerosis . Clement is not a medical doctor and his treatments have been widely criticized as ineffective and possibly dangerous.[9] [10] [11] [12]
