BB, this is another pseudo-science site with generally exaggerated health claims. You frequently posting this kind of stuff is like one of our leaders who says, "people say", with about the same amount of credibility. To be honest, at least in my opinion, when you post things like this you damage the credibility you have established with your in depth Vitamin C and D research...

Tudpock, you are quite wrong, IMO. Both in what you are saying about
that web site and what you are saying about
me. What is pseudo-science about
Dr. Greger? I don't agree with all of what he he puts forward, however, most of the time, as he is always saying, "you don't know until you put it to the test" and then very often provides perfectly acceptable randomized, double blind, placebo controlled trials to make his point. Other times, he provides trials that are not quite so strict, but still provide a control group. Not infrequently, he provides a trial that shows dramatic results but then asks "So, what is he problem with this study? No control group!". Or, he points out who funded the study which MIGHT cause a conflict of interest for the researchers. On what basis are you claiming that this is a pseudo-science site? I'm not certain which one of our leaders you are referring to, but I'm thinking it might be one who had said that his doctors had put him on hydroxychloroquine early on, to much ridicule. Despite studies at Henry Ford Health(not pseudo-science) backing him up. Recent science from Germany also seems to be backing him up. And, before I am silenced for being political, let me point out that it is you who brought it up. Unless you meant someone else?
Lastly, if it was not apparent, this was presented in a somewhat light hearted manner, as evidenced by the title about
"cure". But at the very least in what would be a harmless suggestion, i.e. to take a walk in the woods. But I often fail in my attempts at humor, or at sarcasm as people think I actually am serious in what I am saying, and I have probably done so again. Still, it is possible that taking a walk in the woods might be helpful for over all health, despite the obvious problem Dr. Greger(sp?) seems to be having believing the evidence he is providing.
