DO NOT try all the scams. Check them out on Scambusters on-line or search all the Medical Scams. Worst one in Kansas City area was Nikkon. It used "magnetic water" (impossible) and had salespeople who never even passed elementary science! Also scams are aroma therapy, fake vitamins, facing north rubbing mud on yourself, Noni juice and many more snake oil fads. Do your research and find support groups. I have put your doughter on my seven state prayer list. Let us know her progress.
OK...you do have a point with these scams :) LOL! The #1 rule I follow is that herbs are food. And they are healing foods. Look into what's wrong with you and find the herbs that are good for that ailment. Buy a good quality product at a health food store, or a company with a good reputation. Unicity is a good solid company...as is Trivita and there are many others. I know from experience...and I am not a salesperson.
