The use of the word "curative" in a bold caption/subheading in the article could also be regarded as fraudulent in the sense that it is a "deception" or "humbug". Please see the many dictionary meanings of the word fraud: http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/fraud?s=t But I don't know whether the journalist in question or her editor put that word in the caption/subheading.
