How so? That's a hell of a destructive statement, in my less-than-humble opinion.I might be dead were it not for "unnatural" compounds. For me, "natural" herbs and nutriceuticals are inert. In fact, calcium supplements exacerbated my condition within an hour. Comments?
Didn't you once argue that classifying drugs is arbitrary? Natural vs Unnatural? Please demonstrate that this dichotomy isn't arbitrary.
Your statement carries great weight, and might dissuade some people from choosing a treatment that will give them their lives back. You never seem to take this into consideration when you submit statements like the one at the top of this post.
Please support your statement.
Thank you.
