Re: Re: Why don't more doctors/therapist understand the

gut brain connection?

Because I lived there and the entire town in a superfund site, Colorado has

quite a few ex-mining towns in the same situation, beware. The EPA said before I

moved, after abating my plot of land, that just driving around the streets of

Leadville, you are breating in lead dust, so don't even go and visit that town.

Even though declared a superfund in 1982, the EPA and town government were

content to sit on their haunches, only doing superfund clean-up of residences

after poisonning has happened. When I bought a residence up there, it was never

disclosed. It ruined the health of my family.
