If dextrose is just a different name for glucose, a monosaccharide, then why is dextrose illegal? Peace =)Alyssa 15 yoUC April 2008, dx Sept 2008SCD June 2009 (restarted)No meds!

Guest guest Posted October 3, 2009 Report Share Posted October 3, 2009 I have no explanation why a person with their bachelors in chemistry and masters in cellular biology would confuse this point. That said my undergraduate work was in anthropology and my graduate work in business and entomology and I make mistakes in my chosen areas of study. That is why most studies are printed in journals for peer review. A peer review is not to criticize but to insure correctness. I worked on a federally funded state of Hawaii area wide insect pest management program which originated on my farm in 1997 till about 2004 with many peer reviews at various stages. With hindsight being 20/20 in 2004 I now realize I had undiagnosed UC because my mind quit working well enough to complete my work. Now with SCD my mind is back. Other mistakes I have made had nothing to do with UC. I simply thought incorrectly or missed the point and others pointed it out to me. Please bear in mind that Elaine’s work covers an incredibly broad array, very difficult for any one person (even one as genius as Elaine) to keep it all straight. Furthermore we are fallible humans, not machines. Aloha, Mort From: BTVC-SCD [mailto:BTVC-SCD ] On Behalf Of Alyssa Luck Sent: Saturday, October 03, 2009 4:20 PM To: BTVC-SCD Subject: Dextrose?
