I say it again- verifiable scientific testing of these overpriced "remedies" is, in my opinion, a welcome development.
Any study discrediting a product that is sponsored by a competitor ought to raise eyebrows. Like I said earlier, St'Johns probably doesn't work for people with serious illness. But apparently Zoloft ain't cutting it for alot of people either (made by Pfizer the generous souls who paid for the study). I can think of far better ways Pfizer could spend it's dollars. Dr. Bob and his colleagues don't need any additional golf outings and dinners to prescribe it Zoloft. And a study discrediting St.Johns should come from the NIH instead of a competitor for it to be taken seriously.
