Re: CSRebuttals please-could silver cause selenium problems
Unfortunately I can't say anything to disprove it and I won't say it's impossible either though I doubt it. Nutrients are often antagonistic to each other. When some ratios are thrown far out of kilter, deficiencies can be antagonized. Calcium and magnesium are antagonistic towards each other, copper and zinc have a similar relationship, etc. This is a real can of worms with silver because even many diehard proponents hesitate to consider it for ''essential'' nutrient status, let alone something that needs to have a certain ratio to other nutrients. Although I don't know of any definite antagonistic factors for silver/or even one instance where I've seen that it needs a ratio to any other nutrient, it's quite possible. All things considered though, I think it's more likely this person is just making a bad assumption. Silver may have a relationship with selenium we aren't clear on. It could also be a case like that with selenium and mercury. There is no ratio problem there [that we know of], only that selenium is known to bind to mercury forming an insoluble compound that will be excreted instead of absorbed. Considering how essential selenium is and how much colloidal silver so many silver takers have regularly used for many years, it seems that somebody would have noticed a major problem on here before. I think this person likely drew a poor conclusion but then again, we're talking about a horse? Did I read that right? Maybe the person is right but there is some major difference in the horse when it comes to silver tolerance or God only knows what kind of stray variable. Medications, enzymatic processes, who knows?

Re: CSVitamins Minerals question-if I only had three
I'd have to make my own disclaimer like Dr. Sylver in that I'm a distributor for two out of three of my must-have supplements as well. If that turns some people off...then I'm glad I'm not ''some people'', lol. 1. I don't go without our Ultimate Classic the multimineral-multivitamin liquid drink. If I could only choose one vitamin/mineral supplement, that'd be the one as it includes plant derived colloidal minerals for trace mineral supplementation, chelated or even colloidal chelate macrominerals, all my vitamins especially high doses of B complex, a high ORAC value, a proprietary amino acid complex like many supplements could use and several complimentary substances to the essential nutrients like glucono delta lactone, dimethylglycine and PABA. I get that product from my own site here: _http://capacity.youngevityonline.com/_ (http://capacity.youngevityonline.com/) 2. At the same site though it's not a vitamin or mineral, I take EFA capsules-I never take the loose oils and don't want them as part of my open vitamin/mineral supplement because they are very perishable. I've tried others from our line but generally stick with EFA Plus with fish oil due to the low conversion rates of strictly plant derived omegas into DHA. Either way, I wouldn't be without some kind of EFA supplementation for Omega 3s because I've never really stuck to a diet rich in them so it's a must for me. 3. Also, I take Iodoral, the iodine supplement which I get from LEF.org although I think it's available in other places, I find LEF to be as trustworthy as my own company and have no hesitation about recommending them. I have no financial affiliation to LEF but my company doesn't tend to do single nutrients so much as great formulas and frankly, I believe iodine should be taken in MILLIGRAMS instead of the microgram range which naturally occurs in our products. I've suggested a few times that we carry a similar product but apparently they don't feel as strongly as I do about it. From my own personal research, I agree with Dr. Sylver that most people are deficient in iodine and I even think much of the world is suffering from an iodine deficiency crisis. So for me, it's definitely a must-have. It's hard to be a researcher and watch people's willingness to wear pink ribbons and even email pink ribbon pictures to each other when their effort would be better spent informing people about iodine deficiency breast and ovarian disease. This link should go directly to the Iodoral: _LEF Search - Welcome To The Life Extension Foundation Buyers Club Inc_ (http://search.lef.org/search/default.aspx?s=1QUERY=iodoral) Those are my main three. I take a lot of other supplementation but those are always in my rotation while I'm mixing around everything else. My favorite multiple vitamin/mineral, an extra iodine source for an optimal amount and some kind of CLEAN tested EFA supplement with fish oil. Be careful what you buy, not everybody does the stringent testing you need to ensure you're not getting loaded with mercury and other dangerous substances. Although they're not supplements, I'd like to add as my four and five that I wouldn't ever go without some kind of RO water filter and my QE pendant from ewater.com [also not affiliated with them financially just so you know]. That pendant has made as big a difference in my life as even my ultimate classic and other supplements have. Sauna and shower are really the only time I take it off.

Re: CSsupplements and ''safety''-Ron Paul-lithium,niacin, etc.
The reason why people had an ''outcry'' is because THEY WERE trying to take supplements away from people. They were, always have been, still are and will continue to try and take supplements away from the people because they are the biggest threat to the pharmaceutical industry. The more people find out about credible health information and the true positive studies that occur frequently that Big Pharma and FDA try to stifle with despicable tactics, the less business they will have. No matter how dangerous the drugs are, people will stay on them till they're shown a better alternative. The thing is, they more often than not already HAVE that alternative, so the job is to make that alternative sound like it's not a good one. People suffer and get better on supplements[like CS]Big Pharma makes less money on their pills which treat symptoms, ignore causes and add new symptomsless bloody money finds it's way to corrupt officials =more incentive by the officials and the drug companies to destroy supplements as an industry or assimilate them into the pharmaceutical system. Right now it's a small chunk of money that pharmaceuticals lose to supplements considering what they make, but it's more than they were losing ten years ago and not as much as they'll be losing ten years from now. You say you couldn't believe it and that's good because you shouldn't. It's a twisted perversion of the truth that shouldn't be believed. I hope everyone supports the latest ''outcry'' from Congressman/MD/Presidential hopeful Ron Paul who is actually fighting the nonsense which they are trying to impose on supplements. The kind of ''regulation'' they want is the kind that declares nature's vitamins, minerals, amino acids and essential fatty acids as well as other naturally occurring chemicals and the herbs they come in as patentable drugs which they can dispense to you at outrageous markups with neat little ''adjustments'' that will MAKE them patentable whereas they aren't now as they naturally occur and will probably also make them next to worthless in the process. Then they can either shut down health by perverting the natural raw materials of life-vitamins,etc.- and make them into manmade gook or we can just let them dispense the materials in ridiculously miniscule doses like they've done to potassium. They made lithium a drug by altering it so it doesn't quite do what it's supposed to although it's a naturally occurring mineral that humans often have deficient amounts in. It might help your symptoms, but it won't clear up the deficiency the way it's supposed to. Neat way to alter and patent. They take niacin and give you megadoses of it for ''high'' cholesterol and DRUGIZE it with Niaspan. One of the few vitamins that people tend not to tolerate well in extremely high doses and they of course choose that as one of the few vitamins that they'll give you in megadoses ''medicinally''. They've already started to ruin supplements and they've found ways to ''regulate'' them into oblivion already but the outcries are to keep them from driving more nails in the coffin. We should keep outcrying because we're actually starting to fight off the dirty insert offensive name here FDA: Oh, don't mind us, we're not trying to take your supplements away, we're just trying to ''regulate'' them for your safety Sly grin with fingers crossed Wake up folks. If the FDA's safety regulations meant something anymore then FDA approved drugs wouldn't be getting ripped off of the shelves on a regular basis because they were causing birth defects, heart attacks, blindness, strokes, aliens, runny noses, droopy eye-lids, foreign accents, cowardice under-fire, poor reading comprehension, glow-in-the-dark hair, varicose veins, mold, mildew, lice, overdue bills, sinusitis, turkeyneck, horseshoe, beernuts, cottonballs, pickled pig-knuckles, death, loss of limbs, stray cats, arthritis, inflammation of your tongue, swollen jaws, hepatitis, pancreatitis, hyperkalemia, insomnia, itchy feet, kidney failure, conjunction of the junction [which inhibits your function] and other such maladies. Did I miss anything? So, after the Avandia and the Vioxx and the Ortho Evra and God only knows what else to come [I'm thinking Guardasil is the next big ''sorry about your death in the family'' product] , they're suggesting that FDA approved and evaluated drugs are clearly just like natural chemicals like vitamin E and Catechins only SAFER!

Re: CSCholesterol Magic Numbers-Too Low-Too High-What's the cause?
I've written extensively on cholesterol and I'd be worried if mine dipped to 120s territory too Wayne. I guess you could look at it hoping that in fact it's just your body needing less like Dee mentioned, everybody's different BUT I'm wondering if you aren't consuming some type of food or supplement that contains a naturally occurring statin like some sort of yeast product. Yeasts sometimes contain statins which inhibit the natural production of cholesterol in the body[One reason why statin drugs are effective-effectively bad for you]. We get our Lipitors and Crestors as the pharmaceutical descendents of yeast products and there are a lot of ''health'' foods and supplements that contain yeasts of different kinds and possibly statins. Also, although it can be a great supplemental mineral, an excessive amount of the trace mineral Vanadium might inhibit cholesterol production too. A symptom of vanadium deficiency is high blood cholesterol but the excess is low total body cholesterol. I just wanted to chime in just in case you take large amounts of yeast products or vanadium. The current newsletter I've been circulating for the past few months has compiled everything I've written on the subject and I've personally concluded after extensive research that for numbers dipping down to even 180 NATURALLY for those who are essentially healthy people that it's probably okay and that there's sense to the view that some people may need less in their blood or just be USING cholesterol more efficiently, dispensing it to cells and sending it back to the liver for recycling so well that the blood level seems slightly low, etc. but that numbers going down to BELOW 160 probably aren't healthy for anyone and there's probably a good reason they're down that far. I think you said you're eating less red meat? and perhaps that's more your natural food source and that your body is built to rely more on dietary cholesterol than other peoples might be. Also, have you ever done a liver/gallbladder flush? I know these can do wonders for truly ''high'' cholesterol[when you might actually have it] and triglycerides but perhaps it might bring a low cholesterol UP since it improves liver function and the liver metabolizes it to send back to the blood for it's necessary use in all of your cells. If anybody would like a copy of my digest on cholesterol, they can subscribe to my free newsletter by writing _ninetyplus4l...@aol.com_ (mailto:ninetyplus4l...@aol.com) with ''Free Sub scription'' in the subject line and I'd be happy to add them to the list and send out a copy. It goes into detail on why you should keep your cholesterol UP and what all statin drugs can do to damage you and all the different doctors that have been fighting the twisted but lucrative propaganda on the subject. We've shared a lot of our info sources on this list to each other like William Douglass and Mary Enig and there certainly doesn't seem to be a shortage of learned people concerned with low cholesterol and I'm 100% with them thinking it's a very valid concern.

Re: CSWhat can I do with an over-large aloe vera plant?
I have a very large aloe vera plant that I have been growing for several years. It is getting over-large for it's pot, and because of the weather it can't be planted outdoors, etc. Is there some way I can process it? How should I use it up, since I don't want to waste it? Dan It shouldn't be too hard to just use it up fresh. Along with ginger, cayenne and garlic, aloe vera is one of the most commonly distributed superfoods. It is great for pretty much every facet of human health. Aloe vera helps oxygenate the blood. It makes some antioxidants stronger, functions as one of the safest Anti-Inflammatories you can take. It's certainly not just for burns and cosmetic products. I read an article where the world's oldest house cat was given a little aloe in his food everyday. We used to give our cat aloe too when she got old and found it hard to move around. Often, it seemed to make a big difference. You just scrape out the raw gel from the leaf and take it straight or put it in a smoothie or applesauce or what have you. My next article is actually going to be about polysaccharides in aloe and certain mushrooms. Aloe is really very complex in its chemical makeup with it's nutritional content. Mike Adams, the health ranger has a lot to say about it. Much of it is even a bit controversial to me but he takes an unusually large amount in his own diet and has only praise for it for darn near every major epidemic ailment. Most people taking it regularly only take a few tablespoons one or two times a day but even at that, it probably won't take long to shrink your aloe plant down. Plus, it's great for the immune system. The list goes on and on. Great stuff, I hope you try it.

I am aware of the awful cholesterol debacle, but unfortunately, the masses refuse to believe anyone other than the establishment. So if I take a teaspoonful of coconut cream (virgin) then this should do my immune system good? I already use it for cooking. Dee Well, I'm a little unsure as to whether you mean cream like the often very processed coconut product or oil but the barely processed oil should be great for you. Doctor Mercola has been a great advocate of coconut oil and sells the ideal coconut oil product. The better kinds should at least be very fragrant and will look creamy or actually be hard often at room temperature as it's saturated fat [saturated fat for health, to the dismay of conventional medicine]. Using it for cooking is great too because it is far more stable and develops far fewer free radicals during the heating/cooking process than unsaturated oils like olive and corn which are very fragile. It develops fewer free radicals just sitting at room temperature than those oils too. Mercola.com is a good source for more free information on this food.

Re: CSLauric acid -OT-Candida-coconuts-infant formula-the kitchen sink
Although at least present in things like real unprocessed milk, the most popular source of lauric acid at the moment is coconut oil. Lauric acid is reportedly great for the immune system. It is a fatty acid that they do use in soaps and various cosmetic products. It is uniquely antiviral and along with capric acid, also found in coconuts, has been studied for it's action against everything from Influenza to even HIV. It is also antifungal and touted to help combat candida fungal yeast infection in large amounts. Some experts like Mary Enig believe it may even be a ''conditionally essential saturated fatty acid''. Lauric acid in mother's milk is partially credited with the immune boosting of infants against viral and bacterial infection. Baby formulas used to commonly have coconut oil and consequently Lauric acid as I understand it but now almost none do, much to the detriment of our infants because it supplied something that the mother's milk would have and was a closer approximation of that nutritional source. Please don't be worried about natural lauric acid because it's part of a harmful product. Calcium, potassium and magnesium are part of many pharmaceuticals with harmful side effects but it's not because of the minerals themselves. For instance atorvastatin calcium [Lipitor]. Same goes with sodium lauryl sulfate. It's a big process that goes from the fatty acid to the harmful additive. It's just like Donny and Marie. Just because they were both on that show doesn't mean either one of them is necessarily *evil* per say even though the show itself was clearly satanic.

Re: CSAutism help
If he does have any toxicity problem with Mercury, Cadmium or Arsenic in particular, I would look into age/weight appropriate dosage of chelated selenium with a doctor who knows about it. I did my last newsletter on selenium and it is antagonistic towards those elements and helpful when you've been exposed to the toxic forms there of. It can actually bind to Mercury and form something harmless that you can't absorb and can safely excrete for instance. Also, although it may not be practical or advisable for him at this point, I would look into any nearby clinic that does hyperbaric oxygen chamber therapy and consult them about potential treatment options if he really does have autism. Severe, severe autism can be dramatically influenced by HBOT. If it were me though, I'd certainly wait to be very certain before jumping into anything. Sometimes kids are just late starters or they're quirky or who knows what and their parents are told that their child is likely to be ''mildly autistic''. I saw someone else mentioned chelation and if you have a clinic that does HBOT, they probably do chelation therapy too.

Re: CSsupplements to Terry/Soils depleted for sure
Much of my information comes from my company listening in on conference calls and asking the doctors that work for the company my numerous and often skeptical questions. However long before this experience I've been researching many different sources and reviewing many opinions from Medical Doctors, Osteopaths, Naturopaths and Nutritionists, and so on and assume many of you who must be health conscious have too . One of the things I point to is how studies HAVE been done for the past decades in regards to the level of chromium in our blood, a trace mineral that regulates blood sugar among other things. All but one test showed steady decline and the immediate tests afterwards showed continued decline. I'd have to find the study/article but I could show you the dramatic results that help show that clearly even if the 1936 testing was small in scope or even flawed, there is no way that our general produce has gotten better in mineral content! We fertilize our soils with NPK primarily and have for about one hundred years. This is nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium. Farmers use what is necessary for their yield. This is only two minerals, phosphorus and potassium that are being ''reimbursed''. No real effort can be given to trace minerals, or even macro-minerals like calcium. Our soils as far as big time farms are being slowly depleted of ALL minerals but what is in NPK. Those two minerals and nitrogen are the only nourishment necessary to get your apples and Idaho Potatoes and corn from Ohio, etc. Sure sometimes they use Boric acid [Boron], etc. in small amounts or you find smaller farms or personal farms that have some good methods [hopefully like mine] and help a little bit, but this doesn't really help the majority using standard cheap, inorganic produce from big company farms concerned with patents of Genetically engineered products and getting as much yield for as little resources [money] as possible. And the small farms really don't ever come close to complete soil nourishment even with good methods IMO. So no matter what pick of great looking and abundant produce you have in a country ''seemingly'' the richest in food quality and I would think obviously in quantity you are going to be faced with ever depleted soils. This is what those of us witnessing this slow catastrophe have been saying for years. Getting the appropriate ratio and optimal amount of all vitamins, amino acids and essential fatty acids is quite frankly impossible unless you are in the severe minority of people who have near perfect diets. As for the minerals? Your apples and bush beans and onions DON'T MAKE MINERALS. Plants don't make minerals. If you can imagine given this view how we've improved anything but our caloric intake and protein availability since 1936 for the average American by depleting our soils and converting to high usage of vitamin and mineral depleting diets [i.e. soda pop, table sugar, High fructose corn syrup, Red Bull, Ramen Noodles and Campbell's MSG gumbo] than you have quite an imagination. I can't picture it myself though. As far as I'm concerned, being robbed of selenium alone has contributed more to death and degeneration in America by disease- as well as some supposedly genetic diseases- than our FDA or AMA would ever admit no matter how compelling the evidence. This is my opinion once again, and I'm not a doctor, a scientist or an actor. So hey you know. ''Lance''
Re: CSpancreatic cancer
I've totally lost track of who wanted the cancer information. I just got finished typing a bunch of this information out from a book for someone I know whose mother has lung cancer and I knew there was someone on here before, asking for whatever information we could give. If they/You haven't yet gotten enough satisfactory information, please email me personally. I've got a good sized document on specific cancer and cancer in general and I can copy and paste it to you no problem.
Re: CSProblem with Inulin
I've taken a similar flora product for about four months from lifeforceplan.com at the beginning of the year while on the candida cleanse and used a stevia powder made with it and experienced no side effects. No unpleasant ones like that anyway. As I understand it, a lot of beneficial bacteria [I assume that's what your flora product was] products use inulin because the ''good'' bacteria are so well nourished by it. ''Lance''
Re: CSgrapefruit seed extract
That's fascinating. Thank you very much for posting that. I personally appreciate hearing these things. I try to stay up on all these kinds of factoids because I'm in the supplement business and I've never even heard this before. Although I have heard that a lot of companies use some man made Vitamin A made from Pharmaceutical companies. I immediately asked my company if they did that and they said no. All this stuff aggravates me. We try to take our own health in our hands because someone else's hands were incompetent and we end up getting misinformed, mislead, cheated and confused, etc. What a shame. ''Lance''
Re: CSBrooks B---EFT
I used it successfully once on a bad hip. It was very very tight and loosened up almost immediately. Very strange but I've been talking it up to people. Could be the next great thing for common people to treat themselves with.
Re: CSCS/Cystic Fibrosis...what's the deal?
I have been highly and painfully informed about Dr. Joel Wallach's research into Cystic Fibrosis in Humans and other specimens like monkeys. This man as far as I am concerned proved without any doubt that CF was never genetic or anything other than deficiency of the trace mineral selenium. Either selenium is lacking in the mother of the CF patient in questions or the mother is chronically malabsorbing whatever amount she is getting either by way of mild food allergies or some other of the many things that can produce an inability to absorb nutrients especially minerals or make vitamins like A from beta carotene or certain B vitamins from brown rice. I am firmly convinced that this is a cause. Wallach was put in for a Nobel but that was later taken back. The nomination I believe. He was actually fired from his job for making the discovery shortly after his wife died. Sad story for a great intellect, but I think people will eventually find out that this is the cause of cystic Fibrosis. Not genes, not anything else.
Re: CSRe: Re: CSCS/Cystic Fibrosis...what's the deal?
I have read most of it although the beginning about how the earth makes minerals and how it is tested is a little bit past my range. I got the dire gist of that part though. Great book, Let's play doctor is also in my library which I think is great. My family is in his associate program for American Longevity recently and find it to be very interesting and had good results with some diabetic trouble although we're still into many therapies.

Yes Absolutely the books- for pretty much whatever ails you.

_Dead Doctors Don't Lie by Doctor Wallach - DR. Get the 30 missing minutes from Dead Doctors Don't Lie tape!!!_ (http://www.mich.com/~vit/30min.html) Has an interesting idea when it comes to Crohn's although I really don't know how on the mark it is-I know Wallach is a great doctor. His take on Crohn's and it's cure involve's no expense at all but if you should ever choose to start taking his supplements, please contact me. My family are associates and we work with people who want to start on Wallach's products and the products of the sister companies joined with his line. As an aside to his idea- I've heard good results from folks with very bad Crohn's Fistulas and all taking Soil Based Organisms. I don't know where the best place to get them is or what to look for though.

If this has been addressed, I apologize. I just picked up on this subject line. Are any of you familiar with Dr. Joel Wallach and/or his thoughts on Crohn's disease?
Re: CSvitamin E
I don't know anything about Weil's views on CS but he is certainly not up to my expectations on the effects of electromagnetic chaos.
Re: CSvitamin c
Right foods alone? Have to disagree. Our soil is highly depleted in this country from over farming and little replenishing takes place. If it's not in the soil-it's not in the food. Potassium you can count on, it's put back in to ensure a good yield for farmers. Copper-not generally a concern. If you think you can count on copper being in your body with even the food raised in copper-rich soil and take several grams of vitamin C a day- you will develop copper deficiency. This is serious. I'm not talking about dying at 90 either. Linus Pauling was quoted as saying something to the effect that all or most degenerative disease could be traced back to mineral deficiency. I'm sure C was not the only thing he gave his body. I'd certainly assume a large quantity of other vitamins and minerals were on his schedule too. I'm talking about dying at sixty with warning signals of varicose veins and premature wrinkling and loss of hair pigment. I'm not in a who's right who's wrong battle. I'm just stating what my own research has lead me to believe. All smartazzity aside- you should look this up, you may be getting yourself into trouble here.
Re: CSvitamin E
I read about a man who cured his scleroderma [may've spelled that wrong] with raw lemons and huge thousands of IU's of E a day. They told him it was going to kill him. I read that in an Andrew Weil book about self-healing. Good book but Weil is sheepish sometimes as a health pundit/dr. but he's very interesting.
Re: CSvitamin c
I didn't say that was the only cause of wrinkles and white hair-that was just me being smart although seriously it is a sign of copper deficiency. It seems I've sparked a controversy about the age thing. I'd rather go at one twenty if I was healthy...
Re: CSvitamin c
If you are not seriously ill- do not take this much vitamin C. It is an antagonist to both zinc and copper from my understanding. At these levels you will develop a deficiency of both of these minerals. Pauling clearly had a copper deficiency at death. The white hair and the wrinkles are clear indications. You may be able to do it for years, but eventually it will kill you. You may die at eighty but what if you would have died at a hundred instead? Take super doses if you have cancer sure- it will enhance the lymphatic system's ability to carry out toxins and cancer cells. Of course this is just my understanding and I've been wrong before. Check out Dr. Joel Wallach's company American Longevity and call 'em up. They'll tell you about the copper/zinc thing.
Re: CSvitamin c
Um, yes actually it is rampant amongst the elderly. Check out the research bud. p.s. why die at ninety if you can die at 120?
Re: CSsystemic candida, CS, diet- newbie:)
Are you doing more than the diet or are you on supplements to kill the candida also? What are you trying to improve in your health?
Re: CSRe: CS for varicose veins
The Vitamin E I can't even remember-that's been stored in my brain for a long time waiting for an excuse to come out. The copper is based off of the information on the Dead Doctors Don't Lie audio tape although I have a cassette I think there is a cd and a book now, maybe check your local library. People [online only] have told me that it works but E in super high doses I guess should never be used with another kind of efficient blood-thinner natural or artificial because it is so efficient at that by itself. -Liam
Re: CSRe: CS for varicose veins
This is my first message on this list I think. I hope I am not repeating something said in a message I've deleted without mind, but I just have to put in my two cents. Colloidal copper or about three chelated copper capsules a day plus a suggested dose of full spectrum Vitamin E like the kind at lifeforceplan.com should cure this in a few months from what I've heard. No herbs, no procedures[although I enjoy skin brushing also], just two common isolated nutrients. Also I would suggest that you drink plenty of pure water to aid in circulatory function. I haven't read the other posts so once again if I am being redundant I apologize. If you try, let me know how it works okay? -Liam
Re: CSRe: CS for varicose veins
You folks are way over my head in actually making colloidal anything. I am new to the list and don't make colloidal silver but joined in hopes of learning. I am only referring to ready made colloidal copper likely to be with other colloidal minerals like calcium and magnesium all from plant sources. The extent of my knowledge on colloidal supplementation and mineral healing is largely based off of Dr. Joel Wallach's research of his Dead Doctors don't lie fame. _MajesticEarth-Minerals - Contact Us_ (http://www.majesticearth-minerals.com/contact.php) That is Wallach's company site and I'm sure their reps would be helpful if you were interested in buying supplementation. As far as the process of making colloidal silver or anything that you may make similarly, maybe you could actually fill me in on it. I mostly wanted to learn because I hear CS can be really helpful with any type of muscular dystrophy or Multiple sclerosis. I may be very misinformed-any testimonials guys? Also there may be a misunderstanding of the kinds of colloidal products. I'm still lurking and reading a post here and there to get the idea. I try to stay away from herbal medicine and leave that to herbalist and botanist and the like. I mainly study on the basic nutrition that should not be ''too'' plant specific. For instance I would be less inclined to want to learn about flaxseed because of it's special EFA's and more interested in what how the EFA's work and how much of it you need and what it does for you etc. I try to learn what I think I can grasp lol.
