Dear kismet,Additionally "alternative" "health" movements can be very cultish, like the followship of Linus Pauling for instance. No science in the world will change their mind, and supplement manufacturers simply want to cater to such people and those with a similar mentality ($$).
please stop spreading contempt for high dosage orthomolecular medicine in treatment of certain conditions, as long as you aren't able to provide sources or good verifiable reasons against.
I'm only for a very short time on this forum but already in two threads I asked you for sincere reverences - but on both you simply went quiet with silly excuses!
I feel personally offended if you continue to talk of people like me as a cultish following - because I successfully use Pauling's therapy against a PAD. This has nothing to do with religiousness but about regaining health. I haven't even heard of Pauling before being diagnosed PAD.
You advised to me I would fare much better with Statins and Aspirin, ignoring that both of them obviously only make cosmetic changes to symptoms with no healing in sight .
With Pauling's therapy I was able to improve all Cholesterol markers in average by 25%, with still much more improvement potential because I cautiously increased all ingredients gradually with still some sensible increase possible in my case.
You're recommendation to me that I should take Statins and Aspirin (where there is no healing in sight) instead of high-dosage Vitamins (which already has improved my situation more than could ever be expected), on ground of an alleged harmfulness of the later is just quack.
If you look at the numbers of the chart below with most fatal poisonings in 2007, you can see that Statins and Aspirin have a that high mortality toll - despite being much less widely used in comparison to Vitamins. However, Vitamins caused just Zero deaths in that same year!
How obstinate stiff must you have become if you can't acknowledge this distinct difference between vitamins to dangerous medicines with many serious side- effects?
It would be something completely different if you could provide sources for you silly claims. Just repeating them doesn't makes them more truer. And calling other people silly does only tell something about you self!
