If your argument is that the insurance/public health system shouldn't be paying for it, I agree with you.


That's not my argument, no. My argument is that the nation's most trusted pharmacy has a duty to act responsibly as medical professionals, and should not sell sugar in containers that claim is is medicine.

At the same time, I have to point out that big pharma, with its giant profits, has (in the USA anyhow) muscled their way into a position where they have enormous control over the healthcare system.


I totally agree. We should to proper trials on all manner of medical approaches and discern what works and what doesn't. Big Pharma is certainly guilty of profiteering. Mind you, the profits margin on homeopathic sugar nibs is far greater.
