Russ,

Clearly I have struck a nerve with you as indicated by your replies to two of my posts.

My response to StarBrite was not merely reflective of my own personal experience, but considerable research into these conditions and working with patients (I am a detoxification specialist, colon hydrotherapist and health psychologist). While I am certainly aware that others will not have the same experience that I did (I would hope not!), my intention was to inform her of the potential danger associated with significant blood loss during a menstrual period and the possibility that she needed immediate medical attention. I made no comments regarding CS or MSM, but simply offered another possible explanation for what she described. Not doing so is irresponsible and dangerous. None of my statements were false, as you have indicated, and I find it disturbing that your response would take such an insulting tone when another point of view is expressed.

With regard to endometriosis, although you appear to have a general understanding of the condition, you are very mistaken about some aspects of it. Endometriosis causes disabling pain in many women and this pain is NOT only experienced during the menstrual period. While adhesions do form from surgical procedures, they also develop as a result of inflammation that occurs because the endometrial tissue that has migrated to other areas of the body 'sheds blood' into tissues and has no means of exiting the body. In addition to the pelvic cavity, there have been documented cases of endometrial tissue found in the lungs, eyes and brain. The endometrial tissue is estrogen-sensitive and can continue to pose problems beyond the 'fertile years'. Women who have had hysterectomies or who have gone through menopause can still experience complications with endometriosis if they are exposed to estrogenic substances, as well as to the adhesions that have formed as a result of the disease. Endometriosis can cause heavier periods, but not necessarily, and blood clots are generally not associated with this condition. And the symptoms associated with endometriosis are far more extensive than you have suggested; pain is only part of it. Infertility is a primary symptom, and digestive disturbance, nausea, vomiting, bloating, fluid retention and fatigue are others. Furthermore, the nature and degree of symptoms experienced is not indicative of the extent of endometriosis; some women have considerable lesions and remain asymptomatic while others with minimal lesions are incapacitated with this condition.

I would suggest that you contact the Endometriosis Association for further information about this condition.

I cannot dispute your claim regarding the products that you distribute, however I will say that the restoration of health involves considerably more than ingesting any products...no matter how miraculous the claims may be.

Pam
