This isn't OK is it? Forever Living on FB.

[IHeartKingThistle]

I have a couple of FB friends deeply into Forever Living at the moment. I'd hide them but there's some weird fascination in watching it play out.

Anyway one of them has linked something today where a FL person is telling a story about a relative of theirs with cancer who wasn't tolerating chemo and is now doing much better after drinking Aloe Vera gel. It's not making any claims that it treats cancer (it says he now could be strong enough to restart treatment) and it's only anecdotal but it just doesn't sit right with me. I have no experience of the products at all btw.

AIBU to feel a bit uncomfortable about that?

If this shite had any benefit to any medical condition the retailer would subject it to medical testing and get it approved so that those suffering from chronic illness could get the treatment they needed. If however this were untested wampum peddled by the brainwashed with the profits funnelled into wackjob Mormons then there would be no such medical testing. Oh, guess what, no medical testing YANBU.

If it were any good, you wouldn't need to resurrect a bloody zombie thread
