Hey J,
I'm not trying to be a jerk about the whole thing, I am aware that there are infact some natrural remedeies that wrok, eg Milk Thistle for Hep C, but this guy is not one I would put any faith in given his history and conspiracy theories/theories in general that go beyond logical. I don't trust anything w/o data to back it up in instances where it's life and death matter.
People by all kinds of things- I don't know the reasons except it's always something, big ideas pop out all the time. I still can't figure out why Harry Potter is so popular. Popular doesn't mean true, just means popular.
best, kat
