I’d like to post a formal apology to Lindsay. I admit I went off the handle, and in light of her desire to seek the truth (after all, that is what we are all doing here) it was uncalled for. In all fairness, if it HAD been an actual sales pitch (picture the quack who is trying to sell this posting the same message) I would have posted the same response. But it was unfair to lindsay who, rather than trying to sell the stuff, was trying to find ways to discount it. Bravo, lindsay, for understanding the difference between medicine and quackery. I still stand by my statement that the firts sign of quackery is the words “cures a wide variety of…” No known medicine would make such claims.

My dad got sucked into buying some of this stuff for my sister. Thought it would help with her migraines. Not only was it totally useless, but tasted like tar.

Now that’s a testimonial they should use in their sales pitch.

Hopefully it’s not open to the juice. I read through this thread several times, and was unable to find one poster who seemed open to it. Or maybe this guy goes for the tough sell. Likes challenges, and such. 🙂
