List, I have just realized the same experience. At the approaching winter months, I dreaded them. My shins would itch so bad after showers or tub baths tha I could hardly stand it. I just realized from last year and now this year I don't have that problem now! Wow! And I only injest 4 to 6 oz a day of 5-10 PPM CS per day. I'll pass this on..................Thom
