Alternatives for cold and flu

email to friend Printer friendly

Dear WDDTY

I am disgusted with Harald Gaier in his Alternatives column (vol 4 no 8) for recommending treatment that comes from the hearts and livers of ducks for colds and flu.

Any naturopath worth his salt wouldn't dream of prescribing such nonsense. Colds and flu are the body's attempt at eliminating its overloaded toxic waste. Margaret Newson, Wetherby.....

What our readers and members say about WDDTY

Two months ago I could barely walk more than 50 yards or stand in the queue at the Post Office. Chronic lower back pain was the problem...now, thanks to you, I ramble and cycle miles and miles without pain. - R.P., Norwich

I was told I had glaucoma and was going blind. I developed a diet and supplement programme based on your information, and two months later I had my eyes examined again, and there was no sign of glaucoma any more. - G.R., Edinburgh

My husband was given three months to live two years ago due to prostate cancer. By reading the information you provide, I contacted the right people and he started an alternative therapy. It succeeded and he was later told that he was clear of cancer. Thank you for being you. - M.R., Dyfed

Instead of suffering from asthma, unwillingly forced into the last-ditch resort of taking steroids in order to have any sort of livable life, I am virtually free of it and, to boot, have lost a surplus two stone. This is all attributable to your informative publications. - M.B., Cornwall

Recently my mother-in-law was diagnosed with breast cancer. I cannot tell you how encouraging your newsletter was to the whole family...she is faring well and confident she is making the right decisions thanks to your timely advice. - J.B., Jersey

Several years ago I was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis...a chance discussion put me on the track of your publication, which linked MS-type symptoms with the Pill I’d been taking. Had I listened to my GP and neurologist I would probably be in a wheelchair. Thank you for saving my life. - D.J., Norfolk
