45. i agree with you again Doc but
but, but (sorry but I'm like that), though I know we are fully traceable, I also still fundamentally believe that if we are only offering gentle suggestions as opposed to absolute cures, and there is no monetary exchange there would be neglible liability.

If you're an MD then you're in an entirely different and more vulnerable catagory.

For me to suggest epsom salts and baking soda baths with one's favorite oil, really couldn't hurt anyone. I don't think anyway.

However, contraindication is a more than serious problem.

Don't know whether you read an earlier post wherein I stated that I had given fully legally licensed over the counter Chinese remedies for family, friends, and strangers for free.

Well my dad was diagnosed with gout. I wanted to give him Yunnan Paiyao: a Chinese remedy that increases circulation and reduces inflamation. It's an amazing remedy. I called a dear friend who was a big muck a muck National Commissioner for the Admistration of Oriental Medicine and Acupuncture, and told him of the other medication he was on, before I administered this remedy, my dear friend called me back in a heartbeat. He said, "Do not ever give Yannan Paiyao to anyone on Beta Blockers!!!"

So perhaps the disclaimer should include something about contraindicators as well as snake oils and placebos.

Again thanks for your work.
