1. Big Pharma lobbies every day to make these illegal. n/t

[Warpy]

2. While it's comforting to think people can achieve some sort

of bulletproof optimum health through diet and pills of vitamins and herbs, everyone will get sick or injured at some point.

At that point, they become damned grateful there are medications to help them cope with pain, help them heal, and help them survive long term.

3. I'm just saying that there are more economical methods for

achieving the same results, not all the time but a very good percentage of the time.

[trotsky]

4. But they aren't the same results.

As much as the bullshitters have fooled you, the facts just aren't on their side.

[BuddhaGirl]

5. +1

for achieving the same results more naturally! I'm healing my ulcer with deglycyrrhizinated licorice (DGL) at $8.00/bottle. Much cheaper than Tagamet :-)

7. how do you fix a product of nature naturally?

technically shouldn't the natural approach be to let the Ulcer exist? just because something is "natural" doesn't automatically mean its healthy/ier for you than a synthesized and concentrated form of that compound. especially one that has be throughly tested and adequately dosed for efficacy.

8. you're entitled to your opinion

:hi:

6. big pharma wants it gone... bull

why would an industry that is essentially forced to undergo rigorous testing in order to have their drugs sold as medication spend even more money trying to outlaw books, when their money is better spent writing their own books and making their own snake oil? the reason why these books frequently get the authors in trouble is because it makes bold health claims that cause it to fall into FDA's regulatory authority.

you wanna know how to easily spot an advertisement for regular medication and "alternative medication"? simple, listen for a list of side effects, the alternatives are adversised so vaguely that the FDA has no authority to force them to list side effects.
