When LisaBarger.com began, I truly believed that if I, as an insider, spoke up against the scam artists of “natural” health, you would listen. I never expected to be the final word; I simply wanted to counter all the miracle claims and “buy mine” messages.

In my opinion, “ionized water”—as it’s being marketed by the health food industry—is a scam.

Well, I’m not ready to pronounce them a complete scam but, in my opinion, copper bracelets probably do not work for arthritis. They are certainly not the miracle cures some “natural” writers would have us believe.

Well, let me ask YOU a question. Dr. Floras claims to help you lose the “old waste matter” that’s supposedly stuck in your digestive tract, “scrape” your intestines clean and cleanse “toxins and buildup”.
