Jim, it's really important to control your stress level if you have cancer. I

don't think that you should waste your anger on this issue. If you like it and

it helps you, buy it. Otherwise, ignore it.

It's pretty hard to argue with someone's personal testimony. That's what

alternative therapies are all about because there are usually not scientific

studies that are adequate to back up the claims. That doesn't make the claims

untrue. We have to rely on the experiences of others and make judgements

everyday about who to believe and which things will help us personally. I put

way more stock in the personal testimonies of others than in scientific studies.

For example, I know personally 3 middle-aged moms who did exactly what their

doctors recommended to treat their cancer. They are all three DEAD. I don't

really care what study says their treatments were effective. Their personal

experiences SCREAM out to me that their treatment was a bad idea. Likewise, if

someone I know tells me that their cancer went into remission when they used

some particular product, even an MLM product, I'm going to listen to what they

have to say.

Most people selling MLM products are not rich. They are honest people who

believe in their product. The ones I know often give it away for cost because

they want you to have it so badly, but I don't think anyone should feel badly

about making a profit while helping people. The problem I have with MLM is that

if I recommend the product people think I'm trying to sell it for profit. I

don't like the feeling that if I say what I believe people think I'm trying to

sell them something. I know people who are seriously probably going to die that

I think could be helped by this product, and I am afraid to tell them about it

because I don't want to look like I'm trying to sell them something.

I agree with whoever said that MLM products are generally very good quality or

their marketing program would never work. A company that is bogus will fail

pretty quickly. I have had problems with trying to find out exactly how to use

a certain product effectively because those selling it are so careful not to

make any claims. I think most reputable companies have advised their

distributors to be very careful about making claims.
