Re: Must read: Aloe vera and natural cures/healing

Hi Rich,

What is the thinking behind not supporting the immune system in a cancer patient? Seems to me it's the first line of defense.

Which mushrooms are they saying are estrogenic?

I'd be interested in seeing if the studies are done by big pharma.

Aloe is estrogenic too? Have any studies that support that??

Thanks!
Dianne
