Greetings Mr. Missett, I won't address your specific questions, as there are others here with better information close at hand, but I will offer you a bit of overview...
We havepeople here who have made some relatively well controlled studies of CS. Some are vendors who have their own products, while others are committed private experimentalists. Theirs is some of the better work you'll find on CS, but most does not rise to the level of refereed journal studies. Such efforts are usually limited to what a clever person can afford to do with modest funds. Of the few that can spend more, thankfully some are willing to freely share their results with us. One thing will quickly emerge as you listen: There is no firm consensus on many of the details of how CS works in the body, the best way to make it, what is the active component of a typical preparation, etc... What *does* emerge is that a lot of ordinary folks who are not selling anything, will tell you how they treated themselves with CS and the positive results they have achieved. CS is not a cure-all, but it is effective in a lot of situations. A little finnesse is required to make it well, but even the crudest system will produce a useable product. It costs very little to make, while there is even good commercially packaged CS available for well under a dollar an ounce -- if you know where to shop. We agree that false claims, greed, fraud, and ignorant hucksterism, by some vendors, and virulent "debunking" put out by the opponents of CS have both served to hurt its reputation. We've managed to identify most of the nonsense and can help folks get past it to the solid information that *is* available. We know, as you do, that CS is one of the alternative health options that works. I hope you'll get some good, solid pointers from our resident experts, and that you'll *also* take heed of some of the first-hand testimonials that our members can offer. I wish you luck in your endeavor.
