Nutramedix re cumanda aka huacapurana

[Guest guest]

Barbara, thanks for the research on cumanda. Apparently, you went one step

farther than me to find and research the real common name of the latin name

campsiandra angustifolia, I wrongly assumed that cumanda was the common name of

campsiadra angustifolia. Is this another example of NutraMedix creating a new

name or an obscure name for a herb to avert patients, LLMDs, researchers, etc.

from verifying its medicinal uses? 

 

Perhaps rain-tree.com posted a warning on huacapurana because patients, like us,

inquired about purchasing huacapurana and Raintree did not wish to sell herbs

under a false medicinal use. Apparently, rain-tree.com has ethics and integrity!

 

Though I had not intended to discuss the medicinal uses of herbs with the

Florida Attorney General, I think it is wise to ask them to require NutraMedix

and bionatus.com to not only call herbs their their real common name, latin name

or active ingredient but also to substantiate their medical claims by citing

research or traditional use.

 

My post responding to a member's allegation that its OK for NutraMedix to call

their tinctures of a single herb by any name and that its OK to over charge

because NutraMedix spent money on research was censored. Basically, I requested

her to cite any researched allegedly performed or paid by NutraMedix.

Thank you so much for the information .

I did a search on the Cumanda (campsiandra angustifolia) & could find little

other than it is also known commonly as huacapurana and there is rather an

interesting note on it at Raintree. It gives no date as when it was written.

" Currently, only one product is available in the U.S. market today for

huacapurana. It is being widely touted for Lyme's Disease as well as a host of

other microbial issues and diseases. None of these claims can be substantiated

by independent third-party documentation or published research, nor even by

traditional use. Consumers should ask for a money-back guarantee in the event

that this product does not live up to its far-reaching marketing claims. "
