I read recently that mangos were good for your colon, but I couldn’t find any that were small enough to fit.

Where there's a thrill there's a way.

I am guessing you live in San francisco?

[Joe 6-pack]

If I lived in San Francisco, I probably could have found a mango that fit.

Follow the money! Who really financed this study?

[norraad]

Yes, too many buy into the corponazi’moremed$ philosophy , treading right over inexpensive natural remedies that have been effective, because not enough profit can be wrung out of them.

Oh, I know, my doctor gave me these supositories that didn't work.

He said, 'Well, have you been taking them?

I said, ""Yeah, whadda'ya think, I've been shovin'um up my a$$?"

Pro O? I thought she made some poor choices.

Those Iraqi soldiers sure were young.

This is the stuff that messes with me. Like arginine is good for your cardiovascular system, excpet when it kills you.

There would be some optimal amount of everything and those amounts would be individually optimal. What's right for you could be wrong for me. I take a fairly comprehensive multi-vitamin/mineral/whatever pill just to know I'm getting some of all of that good stuff.
