Al,
I re-read my post and I don't see anywhere that I made the claim that online ads (as "cures" for PALS) were a good option. Please read it again. I'm convinced that most of you don't know any more about holistic medicine than I do, but you state things as if yours is the final word. Just as there is no proof that detoxifying works, I've seen no proof that it doesn't. Everyone is worried only about money. Is it possible that ALS researchers don't see any opportunities for BIG profits from finding a cure and so they aren't trying very hard? My gawd, 5000 new cases a year, where's the chance for making money from that few people? In fact, I'd say that's a fairly safe argument that these supposed scammers aren't exactly getting rich either.
I want to make clear that my wife and I did not hear about Eric Edney or Hal Huggins from any website. My wife's cousin, who is an opthamologist, contacted us after he heard of my wife's diagnosed. He suffered a heart attack and two bypass surgeries and turned to holistic healing because he didn't feel that his doctor's were interested in preventing him from becoming sick, only in treating his illness.
Gawd, how cynical is that? No MD is going to make any MONEY if we aren't sick. They don't give a whit about good health -- only sickness.
Hal Huggins was a licensed Doctor of Dentistry. I say "was" because his license was taken away because he refused to toe the ADA line. The ADA refuses to let dentists remove amalgams for ANY reasons other than cosmetic. Insurance companies will NOT pay claims for amalgam removal for medical reasons. But, they will for cosmetic reasons. What does that tell you about GREED? They stand to LOSE billions if they ever admit that putting mercury in your mouth is dangerous. BTW, just because dentists (and MD's) don't advertise on the web does not mean they're legitimate.
Drug company's are making BILLIONS advertising erectile dysfuntion meds everywhere....on the web, in every magazine you buy, on TV....over and over and over. You ever used Viagra? Or Cialas?
Finally, I don't understand how anyone would endorse DavidGL's rant claiming Eric should "give away" his book. Jeesh, talk about ridiculous. Let's face it....money makes the world go round. Eric isn't giving anything away, and neither would DavidGL, nor any MD that I know of. Our first neuro's shoes cost more than my entire wardrobe.
