I don't know if you know about pubmed. Just type PUBMED into the address bar of your browser.

Access to literally millions of clinical studies and abstracts.

In most cases, when I've done searches on things that are routinely discounted by the pharma industries, (like policosanol), pubmed shows they are actually effective. In fact very, very effective.

Thanks for the site info, I'll check it out. It has been our (my wife and I) conclusion that you're right. Pharmaceuticals pooh-pooh natural remedies and demand absolute proof; even though the studies for natural remedies are just as strong or stronger than their own studies in pharmaceuticals. But there is *SO* much more money to be made on patented molecules, so I can see why.

Heard of it, but haven't delved in as you have.

*Sighs heavily*.

One MORE task for my overburdened reading list.

Thanks for letting me know.

Cheers!
