A family member has a lot of problems with inflammation. Having seen many doctors at many institutions, all that's been learned is that the medical establishment doesn't really seem to have much of an idea about inflammatory disease, other than being able to apply labels. So far, any progress that has been made by this family member is down to following scientific method in their diet - doctors have been very unhelpful. This family member is part of support groups full of people with similar experiences.
This sounds like quackery, but given the incompetence in this area of the current medical establishment, we'll have to take a look at it.

"Inclusion in an NLM database does not imply endorsement of, or agreement with, the contents by NLM or the National Institutes of Health." - good. I was wondering how the NIH got involved in this

This is an unblinded, non controlled study. It would be unwise to take it's findings too seriously

Very interesting. Eight healthy subjects used for testing. I am guessing that the effect is not limited to humans alone. Shouldn't it be easier to do a larger study on animals?

How to people sell these products? I could understand selling the product, but not making outlandish claims and letting people reap the placebo effect… to falsely claim actual success is a whole nother level of fraud.

This would be hilarious were it not for the fact that the authors are so clearly trying to prey on people who are suffering.

Fascinating! The study has a lot of information, although other discussions have cast doubt on the financial motivation of an author.

Sorry I didn’t mean to endorse this, I’m just surprised to see peer reviewed studies on this since I never heard about it before.

Had to truncate the title. Is anyone here familiar with the concept of grounding?

In other words, touch grass?
