Guest guest Posted December 21, 2008 Report Share Posted December 21, 2008 Duncan Think what you will. I will not be providing references for any group unless the refs are easy to get ..OR if I have references to give for the products I sell like those I posted in the Files section for this group. I have taken MANY vitamins and various supplements in my lifetime with nothing but great results and if I had waited for evidence, I would be 6 feet under ...especially with all the smoking I previously did. Anyway, you aren't making sense, Duncan. You are talking about hormones, a discussion I am not involved in. Then you talk about placebos which is something else I was not disputing ..but I could if I had the time. So if you want to see evidence of something, go to this web address and look for the File about the Body Rejuvenator CLINICAL STUDY if you want evidence. ....If people would read it and knew what the product does, they would be lining up to get it.

Bruce Fife/ Duncan - here it is again said differently Hi Helen; in this case though we DO have evidence and it seems to make the statement, that useful amounts of hormone can be created from coconut oil, into a myth. My doctor agrees with using placebo for its usefulness. I have no problem with that, but I note that when you need molecules, placebo will not live up to that expectation. Another way to look at it is that one might use the placebo, and exclude a real treatment, then actually get worse because it has not addressed the deficiency or the cure.

Guest guest Posted December 21, 2008 Report Share Posted December 21, 2008 OH, so now I have to find A REFERENCE for VCO about WHAT EXACTLY? Geeze, this is getting tedious.

Bruce Fife/ Duncan - here it is again said differently It might be a known fact to you because YOU know it Bonnie, but I am unconvinced without a reference. I mean, I've seen people miraculously cured by a sugar cube, but I don't support the people who say " try this cube, it'll cure you " .
