LongeCity - Wow, LEF peddles placebos

I'm so disillusioned.

I was alerted by an uncritical reference to homeopathy in one of their latest issues: February 2009 "Ask the Doctor".

The product being sold is Natural Relief 1222: http://www.lef.org/Vitamins-Supplements/It...elief-1222.html

Granted its 6x, not 30x, so maybe there's still some active ingredient in there, but homeopathy is a slippery slope. How long until they are selling sugar pills with 30x (ie no active ingredient) concentrations? /sigh.

I actually wrote to them but got the standard marketing brushoff, you know, we sell it because our customers think it works: "Many members have obtained benefits from the Natural Relief 1222. Whether it is due to the homeopathic ingredients or the other ingredients is unknown". Thats science for you.
