Guest guest Posted March 30, 2009 Report Share Posted March 30, 2009 Maybe I missed it, but is the South Africa vendor the only source for the Oleander soup unless you make it yourself? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 30, 2009 Report Share Posted March 30, 2009 The patented medicine Anvirzel, which "oleander soup" is based on, is available from Honduras. http://www.saludintegral.hn And there are two different products that include oleander extract available from Alpha Omega Labs in Ecuador. One costs $59.95 plus shipping and the other is a mere $9.95 plus shipping. However, the products are too new to have the proven track record of the others and I have some serious reservations at this point about the inclusion of Graviola, which has been linked to Parkinson's like conditions in two studies. Is there any particular reason you may not wish to make your own or else purchase the recommended Sutherlandia OPC? Both of those are tried and true. oleander soup , echo sharkey <hubbahubba311 wrote:>> > > > Maybe I missed it, but is the South Africa vendor the only source for the Oleander soup unless you make it yourself?> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 30, 2009 Report Share Posted March 30, 2009 Thanks for the reply, Tony. I did order from Sutherlandia OPC and was satisfied with the product but need to re-order and the delay due to the overseas connection was about 2-3 weeks. I have gone through it sooner than expected bec. I have also been using it on some of the "pre-cancerous" lesions on my face and hands (and it seems to be working!). But why doesn't someone here (in this country) make this? Gosh, what a great cottage industry for someone in the sunbelt where Oleander grows so willingly (not where I live).

Guest guest Posted March 31, 2009 Report Share Posted March 31, 2009 Because the powers that be would not look kindly on such an endeavor. If it were possible, I would have been there years ago. As it is, we are fortunate that we are able to get it shipped in more or less under the radar. The real reason is that anything that is a threat to the billions in profits from Big Pharma is likely to be suppressed and even harassed by the lapdog alphabet agencies - as was the case with simple Washington cherries and bitter melon tea. A technical reason which could be used as an excuse when it comes to oleander is the fact that there are currently two medications based on oleander extract in FD A trials as investigational new drugs (INDs) and when such is the case any product which contains some of the same ingredients could be labeled an unapproved drug. Personally, I do not think they have a constitutional leg to stand on when it comes to regulating an herbal supplement based on an ages old remedy (or regulating anything we wish to use to address our private health issues), but do any of us want to take on the burden of fighting such a battle? Best to just make our soup and order our supplements (or medicine in the case of Anvirzel from Honduras) and keep a fairly low profile. So far there have been no problems and I would like to keep it that way. oleander soup , echo sharkey <hubbahubba311 wrote: > > Thanks for the reply, Tony.
