Fw: Note from Great Plains Lab.

[Guest guest]

Yes, give me all the info you can. I particularly am interested in the

detoxing with the MSM? Becuase dilantin works through the liver, that makes

sense, but the tegretol too?

>Kathy, I am going to comment on specific things I know. In your email to

antioxidants

if

particles.
