A friend of mine tried it, and was shocked at how and painfree he became after a month on it. I think that medical science can only tell us so much, because the chemistry of each body is different. Everyone reacts differently to a drug or supplement, so there will probably never be a truly conclusive set of results on any drug. Take vioxx, for example: so many people on it were having heartattacks that it was pulled from the market. I took 50 mg a day for 1 1/2 years, and had no damage or injury from it whatsoever. I did not react to it the same way as others did. I believe that will hold true for all meds and supplements. You will just have to try it for yourself. By all means, do not stop selling it. The people that it works for still need it.
