oncearugge Posted November 19, 2015 Share Posted November 19, 2015 There is no substantive evidence for this " stuff" being an effective "medication! You should look in one of those "alternative medicine " places. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big pharma hates it when natural substances work better than what they push. The body produces these sulphates (msm/gluco) but as we age will produce less. A far better alternative than narcotics or Nsaids for joint pain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
impulse Posted November 21, 2015 Share Posted November 21, 2015 (edited) There is no substantive evidence for this " stuff" being an effective "medication! In order to call it a "medication", clinical trials costing in the tens to hundreds of millions of dollars have to be performed. Given the stuff cannot be patented and monetized, who do you figure is going to pay for those trials that would give us any evidence one way or the other? The only way it's available to us is as a dietary supplement with no claims of specific health benefits. Otherwise, the seller can go to jail. That's the way it is in the USA, which is the most important market for supplements. Sadly, they could come up with a natural cure for cancer or any other disease tomorrow (or last year, or 10 years ago) and the seller could go to jail under those laws. Big Pharma donates (and bribes= potato/potato) $$$ billions every year to keep it that way. Edited November 21, 2015 by impulse Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Pharma donates (and bribes= potato/potato) $$$ billions every year to keep it that way. In the UK a very large trial is about to begin to investigate whether aspirin can prevent cancer recurrence. Aspirin is not on patent, and is cheap and generic. http://www.bbc.com/news/health-34592242 "The world's largest clinical trial to examine whether aspirin can prevent cancers returning has begun in the UK. About 11,000 people who have had early bowel, breast, prostate, stomach and oesophageal cancer will be involved. Uncertainty about the drug's possible anti-cancer qualities has led to fierce medical debate in recent years. If it is proven to work, scientists say it would be "game-changing", by providing a cheap and effective way to help more patients survive. During the study, funded by the charity Cancer Research UK and the NIHR - the research arm of the NHS - patients will take a tablet every day for five years. Researchers will compare groups of patients taking different doses of aspirin with people taking dummy (placebo) pills and check for any recurrences of cancer." Of course there is preliminary evidence that aspirin is able to do this, which makes the concept worth testing. Why hasn't big pharma stopped this with their bribes? On your argument, by the way, any claim about the health benefits of anything not patentable would just have to be accepted as true. This is not a wise outlook as clearly there are very substantially more false health claims than true ones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the meantime, Big Pharma can scheme to taint the results with their money and influence since their influence wasn't able to stop the study outright. I'm pretty sure that's part of the "fierce debate" mentioned in the article. (Like the "fierce debate" on climate change.) I'll bet every baht in my back pocket that it will end up going in favor of more expensive treatments. I hope I'm wrong. But I doubt it.

Pointless attempting rational debate with those who embrace quackery and a love of conspiracy theory. One Mr Jobs believed the hype of "alternative cures" which did NOT provide him with a good outcome. "Barrie R. Cassileth, the chief of Memorial Sloan–Kettering Cancer Center's integrative medicine department, said, "Jobs's faith in alternative medicine likely cost him his life.... He had the only kind of pancreatic cancer that is treatable and curable.... He essentially committed suicide." ** ** Ref https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steve_Jobs#Health_issues Edited November 21, 2015 by oncearugge Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
