I wouldn't recommend anything - but I recommend folks follow Barbara's studies. Someone has to make moves on such research and she has done well .. she has a few medical types out doing it too. Dr. Chuck is one of the orchestrators. I think there are a bunch of groups doing the experiments independently and then getting together to discuss the results. Some of it is published and some has been briefed in various forums. But finding the leaves or fruit (there are no berries) might not be easy for some folks .. its a Suthran Hemi plant .. found in great abundance in Suthran Turkey and Greece .. and Northern Cyprus. There's some lower class stuff found in Croatia too .. but the best is Turkish and Greek. As for recommending .. I rarely do that .. I provide testimonials. And I ain't gonna provide a personal testimonial for Vitex agnus castus cause of the name of it Chaste Tree .. men sniff it and the first thing happens is they get an upset stomach .. second thing is they lose their sexual desire .. so I don't sniff it. ;-p > http://member.newsguy.com/~herblady Y'all keep smiling, Butch :-P http://www.AV-AT.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
