So even if the FDA gives Lymerix a quick O.K., it won't be of much help against this summer's tick onslaught...
...years, that the majority of patients with cancer and other chronic illnesses subscribe to the classic American diet. It is increasingly difficult to support diets that are meat, dairy and egg based. Scientific literature is full of reports by unbiased researchers not funded by any special interests who recommend little to none of these products. ROBIN KIRSCHNER, R.N. Olney...
