FReepmail me if you want on or off my health and science ping list.

This was a special request. I take a multivitamin daily. As far as other supplements and herbs, I can't say much as I'm not that familiar with the research besides vitamin C for colds and as an adjunct to oral iron therapy for iron deficiency anemia.

Oh great. It looks like I will have to order more stuff throught the mail.

[Veto!]

Thanks for pinging your health and science list, neverdem. That sounds like Hillary Care.

Right you are, cyborg. Americans certainly don't deserve to be any healthier than people living in mud huts. By all means, let's "standardize" nutrition worldwide so Hitlery can feel virtuous.

Add me... by the way in addition to my own health; supplement restored my mothers' health back in the 70's. She suffered from Chronic Serum Hepatitis caused by a blood transfusion and the doctors had given up and said she was going to die -- they took her off all drugs since they weren't working.

At the time Adele Davis was the only "expert" out there and Rodale Press was really getting a foothold -- from Davis's book Lets Get Well we followed the instructions for the liver (not cheap even back then) and she actually started to improve.

Her improvement had the doctors scratching their heads and finally she fessed up to what she was doing -- the doctor laughed and laughed and then said it "couldn't hurt" anything but he knew if the drugs didn't work vitamins certainly weren't going to do any good -- finally she was feeling so well that he put her back into the hospital -- did a new liver biopsy -- and then came into her room and asked her what book she read because he wanted to read it himself -- her liver had totally regenerated itself. That was back in the 70's. Today my mother is in her mid-70's and manages a very busy real estate office in California.

That is only one of several stories... there is our dog we kept from having major surgery on both hips by giving her the correct supplements while they stabilized her for surgery... today, 18 months later, she is painfree and still surgery-free.. she received a Boswella capsule each day for her joints... which, by the way, Boswella is a natural substance that is a safe alternative to Vioxx, Celebrex, Aleve (all on the list of NSAIDS that may cause heart problems).. so, no the drug companies don't want us to have access to these things, might make them unnecessary!

Oh, yes, I heard yesterday that Aleve is made by Bayer (one of the three German offshoot companies from WWII)...
