Mario observes:

Saiba boggus!  God help us!  I wonder if Santosh and Jose have any hair left 
from tearing their hair and banging their heads against the wall in 
exasperation?

Now we have people whose scientific standard for medications is "being sought 
by the public" and anecdotal newspaper reports.

BTW, when are they going to ban carrots and milk?  A recent study - conducted 
by me - found that last year, over 90% of people who died had eaten carrots or 
drunk milk within the previous 60 days of their death.  I urge everyone on 
Goanet to heed this important research, which has caused me to alter my own 
diet:-))

It is so easy to scoff, mock and belittle what others do, take or believe.

Mario observes:

The use of snake oil and little pink sugar pills are making many snake oil
salesmen filthy rich and famous.

As the only real voice of reason, truth and peace on Goanet, a cancer survivor 
who would not have survived to spread soothing light and harmony on Goanet by 
taking little pink sugar pills, and one who takes statins and aspirin on a 
daily basis and have seen their amazing results, all I can say is this.  Why 
don't the little pink sugar pills and the rest of the snake oil medications 
prove their efficacy with THE SAME rigorously controlled statistical standards 
using double-blind studies and comparisons with placebos as allopathic 
medications?

They have been around long enough.  Why haven't they been tested yet?  I know 
why.  Because they will affect the livelihood of the snake oil and little pink 
sugar pill salesmen who have become filthy rich with their hocus pocus and 
hypnotic auto-suggestion to convince the mind that this stuff will work.  And, 
just like placebos, they will work for some and no one knows why.

Until they do such studies, they deserve to be scoffed at and belittled, 
especially when they make fantastic claims that they can cure serious 
infections and diseases as we see here:
