    Well, you are the one that had to read the book to believe it. I don't need a book to tell me that.

      I once overheard a chiro tell a woman that the best way to cure her toddler's ear infection was to buy some garlic gel caps, heat them up a little, then open up the caps and pour the garlic gel directly into the ear. He told her it would feel really good and kill the infection.

      Not sure if there is any truth to any of it, but Im passing it along here FWIW.

        You are passing along that information, even without a pitch to join your downline? Thanks man.

          On a side note: My wife dumps peroxide in her ears monthly.. SWEARS, that it ensures she does not get ear infections.

            I don't do that and I never get ear infections. I SWEAR that doing nothing works.

              Although I don't really have expertise on alternative medicine, the wife swears by olive leaf when your fighting a virus. Its expensive so I don't take it myself. My go to "alternative medicine" is nasal irrigation at the first symptom of a cold (or if I'm around people that are sick). This seems to do away with most symptoms.

                Olive leaf contains a substance called oleuropein, which breaks down in the body to another substance called enolinate. On websites that promote olive leaf extracts, it is stated that enolinate kills harmful bacteria, viruses, and fungi in the body, but at the same time nurtures microbes that are good for health. This remarkable claim, however, has no meaningful scientific evidence.

                    BYUtv's chiropractic advertiser tells me he can effectively treat Hashimoto's. BYU wouldn't allow that kind of advertising if it wasn't true, right?

                      I am doubtful that Hasimoto's can be cured with back adjustments.

                        I have never done anything to my ears and I have never had an ear infection.

                                I noticed the guy married his wife's best friend.

                                didnt get past the first page and the part where he compared mental illness in pigs to mental illness in humans. I assume his business model is to promote good eating to cure depression? Sounds like a great MLM opportunity.
