Why Patients Treat Themselves

January 6, 2005

If you were more learned about licorice root, then you wouldn't have

to ask that question. YOur comments once again validate the old

saying.... it is better to keep your mouth closed and have people

think you are a fool, then to open it and remove all doubt.Your

ignorance is astounding. Inquiry implies that one is searching, what

if one has already searched and found the answer, should he/she then

be forced to recant their knowledge or keep their mouth closed just

because you are not up to speed, or because you seem to have some

misguided hatred for those you do? Could I not then share that

information with others? Taking licorice root over a prolonged

period (6 weeks)or more can in fact alarmingly raise blood pressure,

and if the person already has high blood pressure can in fact kill

them, and yes there have been people who have died as a result. IF

you were more knowledgeable you would have known that, which proves

my point once again. IF you just blindly suggest this method of cure

to someone, and they happen to follow your advice and neither one of

you knew that, it could in fact kill someone. This is only one

example. IT takes a great deal of skill to understnad the human body

and to know what it needs to heal itself, and I am not talking about

doctors.I am sorry but I never thought I would say this to another

human being, you are a waste of my time and energy. Enjoy your

ignorance and your station in life,you seem to be so happy with it!!!
