This has absolutely no scholar footprint that I can find, and all the sources are to some newspaper articles. It doesn't even show up in book sources, scholarly or otherwise. We cannot source an ALTMED article off of a bunch of news reports, and the use of a pseudo-scientific name for something that has no scientific trace tends to suggest that this isn't what it's depicted as anyway.

 * Delete as non-notable, fringe. -- Scray (talk) 16:59, 28 November 2013 (UTC)
 * Delete Bobrayner said it best: it is both fringe and non-notable as well as (probably) promotional. --MelanieN (talk) 19:43, 30 November 2013 (UTC)
