A. Guava bark and leaves (and the fruit, to an extent) is supposed to be an antidiarrheal and vermifuge. The fruit is nourishing and a source of antioxidants like many other fruits. However, it is likely there is little real therapeutic effect from the seed extracts. DK

what is the therapeutic effect of hypotonic solution?
Q. which we administer to patients.you know, the dextrose.
Asked by chaw - Wed Aug 6 04:41:02 2008 - - 1 Answers - 0 Comments

A. Some of the reasons a patient may be prescribed an IV drip may be: to replace lost fluids, to maintain normal electrolyte balance, to provide an access route for IV meds, to gain veinous access to administer blood products, and to gain and maintain veinous access in the event the patient encounters an emergency situation (if the patient "crashes"). Hypertonic solutions raise serum levels, pull fluid from the cells, and directs it to the intervascular space. Best of Luck

A. That is so you can pay your money with no expectation of getting the therapeutic response you desire. While there may be no advantage for the user, there is certainly an advantage to the seller. You can get benefit --or not-- from the air you breathe, water you drink, every single thing you take into your body. Your best bet is to ask a pharmacist. While they may not always specialize in over the counter "cures," they can provide guidance and help answer your questions about the specific substance you are taking.

Because of the placebo effect should we not all be believing?
Q. It is known in the mental heath field that placebo has a therapeutic effect. I have seen figures up to 30% benefiting substantially from placebo. And what about belief in the healthing hand of God as a placebo? It can only do good healthwise. Do you want a placebo drug from God?

A. The placebo effect does not change reality, only it changes the persons reported condition. The placebo effect has never shrunk a tumor for example, but it has lessened a headache.

Asked by karen - Sun May 31 07:53:32 2009 - - 3 Answers - 0 Comments

A. Depends on the drug. Generics are almost exactly the same as brands in many cases, but in SOME you may react differently due to different delivery systems, buffers, etc. For example, I cannot take generic minocycline (acne medicine) because I developed ulcers and always got nauseous when I took them, but I had no problem with the branded formulations (which worked MUCH better as well) and as a plus, I could take it with milk (which you're not supposed to do with generic). And non-pill drugs -- for example, prescription lotions or creams for or scars, burns, or discoloration are often more effective as brands and have fewer side effects (they may go on better and not be sticky, not dry out the skin or cause peeling and redness or not smell… [cont.]

Discussion: What are the relevant social, ethical, legal and economic effects of therapeutic cloning?

Isnt christianity just a PLACEBO effect?
Q. Placebo effect is the term applied by medical science to the therapeutic and healing effects of inert medicines and/or ritualistic or faith healing practices... When referring to medicines, placebo is a preparation which is pharmacologically inert but which may have a therapeutic effect based solely on the power of suggestion. It may be administered in any of the ways in which pharmaceutical products are administered... Isnt christianity based on the power of suggestion(The Bible)...? "The placebo effect is based in Christianity." LOL you answered it...So GOD is inert...LOL At which point I must ask, what's your problem with it? No problems...Just asking..Thank you.

And you can do that by spending less time on looking at everyone else and start looking deep inside to the one that you are. The only path worth travelling in this lifetime is the path of self discovery. It'll take you most of your life to do, and every increment along the way is like finding a diamond. Your diamond.

I however have not needed to do it As far as the turning blue thing goes; that's basically propoganda from the medical establishment to protect their market. I think about 6 people total have had that happen to them, and all of them used a lot of it daily for years, and most important used a bad grade home made version (whereas with properly made CS the particles are too small to store in the skin).

Could "eugenol" be used as a therapeutic agent in asbestosis?

How many people think....?
Q. When you put yourself in a contest with another sign, you are not respecting yourself? I see this a lot. Although, there are personal improvements we all wish to achieve, when a person perpetuates a contest between signs, they are undermining themselves. Not everybody mixes with everybody, but it does not make the other person bad, and obviously it does not make the entire population of one sign bad. What do you think? How can we help a person realize their strengths without them comparing their sign to another? I do think expressing your views (getting it out), can have a therapeutic effect; however, to hold so tightly onto bad feelings is terrible for a person mentally and physically. What do you think?
