Hi smoothieGuy,
First of all have a look at this ........
http://www.healthcastle.com/aboutus.shtmlMy only association with healthcastle is in attempting to bring truth and honesty to the forum, I do feel honoured to be allowed to do that because there are so many people out there that have not had the benefit of college or university education in nutrition or health, who desperately want to improve their health outlook.
I didn't try to upset you, and there was no accusation, I was merely pointing out that the advertising you are promoting is a scam, read the health reports about it. To claim that colon cleanse and acai reduce weight by themselves has been disproved, several times. Acai berry is no better than a lot of other berries for antioxidant content, it has shown some promise in early trials for some health problems but so far they are unsubstantiated by follow up research on people.
http://www.healthcastle.com/acai_berry.shtmlhttp://www.ehow.com/how_4690249_avoid-acai-berry-scam.htmlYou do not accumulate caked on "gunk" in the colon and to say so in the face of overwhelming evidence is lunacy. Dr Perricone is quite "peed off" about his name being used for some of these ads, and has said he will sue.
I joined healthcastle to help a few excellent post writers on here, people like dAFNia, Annie (ahyan916) , archi, Rachel Lee, engmazen, and the healthcastle team etc, who were trying to push the accuracy of the health message forward and doing a great job, I felt it was a privilege to be able to help them.
I am the owner of "John Bobbin Natural Medicine" a health clinic in Eden NSW, Australia and I work full time in this clinic 6 days per week. I write health articles in Australia for "Regional Publishers", and I campaign for the regulation/registration of Naturopaths with science degrees. I have been involved through clinical practice, research and study with nutrition and natural medicine since 1976.
I taught full contact Karate for 30 years after retiring as undefeated champion, I was ranked number 3 in NSW in two boxing divisions when I was going through high school and college, I have been South Coast tennis champion several times, and I was factory manager for the Heinz Tuna Processing Factory for 17 years, I owned a cafe for 19 years so you see I have crossed some boundaries in my time and I often draw on this experience. I have 2 sons with science degrees, one a PhD is married to a PhD, the other one is a Biologist married to a lawyer.
There you are Gregory I have no secrets, and I do like some of the stuff you have written I just like to see honesty and truth pushed to the front. Sorry for upsetting you.
Cheers
