> - I too have been taking products that build up the immune system,

>and am enjoying the result, especially the absence of the nearly-disabling

>chronic fatigue I had. I haven't used anything for this purpose that was

>marketed by a major pharmaceutical company, and I don't care whether the

>products I use are FDA approved or not. The product that has made the

>most difference for me was recommended in the newsletter of the Chronic

>Fatigue Syndrome & Fibromyalgia Support Group of Dallas-Fort Worth. That

>article was by Dr. Cheney, who has been doing pioneering work on

>chronic fatigue syndrome since the 1980s, and who has achieved remarkable

>success with many of his patients. I also take dozens of pills that I get

>from Whole Foods. I research them all, checking against current medical

>research reported in respected journals.

>

>The last thing I would do if I were very sick is to rely on what the major

>pharmaceutical companies advise their customers to do. They are often

>very irresponsible. I see reports of what they are doing, and follow the

>research on new and established treatments because I regularly read

>Scientific American, Science News, Consumer Reports, the London Economist,

>and the s Hopkins Medical Letter: Health After 50. I am surprised

>that Joe Klein and Gil Vice both asked you, rhetorically, to confirm that

>your product was made by a major pharmaceutical company.

>

>I don't think either Joe Klein or Gil Vice were helpful, or considerate,

>to others on the list because rudeness and hostility affects everyone who

>reads or hears it. I think I'll take a vacation from this list for a

>while. If you want to get in touch with me, you can either ask for sample

>copies of the Abbey Newsletter or the Mold Reporter by e-mail, or call me

>by phone: 512/929-3992.
