discuss away, many of us know full well the value of live food
and raw juice therapy and have raised ourselves from the near
dead to prove it.... with fasting also,

Others of us are shilling for the drug companies and trash the
very notion and try to destroy anyone posting on these issues
with vicious ad hominem attacks... so brace yersef... that
doesnt changes the facts however... or the fact that the vioxx
folks murdered a few hundred thousand people with deliberate
fraud just to make money...etc.

If you post about live food, include a range of links...for
the drug company reps to quote out of context and trash..thats
always exciting.

Myself I just tell folks to go ahead wait until they are
almost dead like I did... then do raw vegitable juice, greens
especially, with garlic and ginger...(get a book on raw
vegitable juice therapy) if they want to come back alive
again... no point in getting into a more involved discussion
than that...but you can.. some will find it very interesting,
you might save a few lives.
