*shrug* All I know is that, if your methods were so effective, people would be flocking to the cheaper and safer 'healing' techniques. The information is widely and freely available in print and electronically. Instead, we see an increase in the number of patients coming through the ER and wards every year.

If they can truly find smoething that works, wonderful. Like I said pages ago 9or maybe it was in another thread, can't recall), the positions I'm applying for are salaried public health jobs, so I couldn't care less if my patient base decreases, so long as everyone that wants care is getting it. i do find it curious that we're seeing more and more advanced cases of disease in the hospital, though, likely as a result of homeopathic treatment gone wrong. Someone takes a couple of herbs, drinks a little urine, and thinks that because they *feel* better that the condition is cured. Lo and behold, a month later, they have a festering infection whereas a month ago, it was a simple case of strep throat that would have been cleared up with a couple weeks of ampicilling.

When we consume sodium our bodies maintain the sodium concentration in our blood by retaining water. The kidneys SHOULD then respond by excreting the sodium in the urine, relieving the body of salt and water simultaneously.
Not only does insulin inhibit this process, it also increases blood pressure by stimulating the nervous system. Lewis Landsberg, an endocrinologist, was the first to report on this.
In epidemiological studies, researchers in support of the salt-hypertension hypothesis failed to recognize that those societies being observed eating little or no salt also ate little or no sugar and white flour.
It's also worth noting that that with the introduction of the western diet(processed and sugary foods; easily digestible carbs), epidemiologists observed hypertension was accompanied by all other diseases of civilization(cancer, obesity, heart disease, diabetes, etc.), which suggests that there is a single common cause and that there is a strong possibility that it's dietary in nature.
Though it might seem off topic, the data above just may identify the most common cause of cancer - sugar and easily digestible carbs - as evidenced by epidemiological data and corroborating lab studies.

Why pour it on. I am going to stand in the shower, aim up, and just piss right on my own face to get it as fresh as possible.
