Hi.
My name is Paul, and with my wife, run a small Acupuncture clinic in NE Lancashire - U.K.
The reason for this posting is that I'm in the process of collecting opinion about whether or not I should launch a new business.
I have posted a similar message on other skin care related forums and so far received an encouraging response.

I'll get to the 'meat' of the matter now;
In the course of training in Beijing China and other subsequent travels, we came
across many effective and duplicatable remedies for all sorts of problems.

One of these is a health drink - which does amazing things, but I'm not quite sure that the Western world is ready for it yet.
The thing is - that it's been possible to capture the properties of this drink in a cream.
It does what the drink does - only topically.
Now, my Mother has suffered with psoriasis for 52 years. The main bulk of it was across her upper chest and typically her joints (elbows, knees, ankles etc.)

That was before the cream.
She doesn't have it anymore. She uses the cream everyday - and she's changed nothing else in her life.
If I'm being honest, it's my Mum that said I should do this. She said that I should sell it through the clinic (which I do), and that I should try to contact as many skin problem sufferers as possible.
So here I am telling you guys about it.
Please don't get me wrong - I'm not trying to sell anything (yet) - I'm just trying to establish if there's enough interest to warrant spending money on advertising, or selling the idea to a corporation.
The big questions have got to be 'will I be up to my neck in trouble from manufacturers of chemical emollients etc'? and 'will I actually be able to deal with the volume of business if my suspicions are correct, and achieve something' ?
By the way, there are no artificial additives whatsoever in the cream, and I'm assured that as it's a direct derivative of a food / drink, that drug legislations don't apply.

The conditions that can be treated are literally endless.
A few examples; Eczema, psoriasis, acne, shingles, dermatitis, etc.

Please help, and I in turn may be able to offer help.

I'm looking for e-mails that I can print out to help me when the time comes to make a decision.

Thanks.

Paul M. Yates.

Hello Paul, I have a daughter that suffers from quite bad Eczema, and all thoe I myself believe in alternate treatments and would love to be able to have her skin as normal as possible, I worry about posts such as this.

This has no reflection on you or your product. There are a number of questions that need to be addressed before I put anything on my daughters’ already delicate skin.

I am not a blinkered person and I do know that there are thousands of alternate treatments out there that work, I and my close family use some of them, and I know its the drug companies and governments that band them, not because they do harm or contain natural vitamins that they see fit to ban. But because they would lose Billions of $ & £ every year if these products were made available.

So, if you can show me documented evidence and case studies then I would be more than happy to try your product.

Wink Atopic eczema

Hi Paul,

sorry, I did not come across your thread until today.

Would like to know more - I have tried everything and it's not getting better. The regular therapy does not help any more and herbal treatment gives only temporary relief. So if you need a rabbit for testing , let me know.

No, but talking serious stuff: I'd be interested in some more info. Although, I tell you the truth, after so many things I have tried I do not make up any great hopes. But as by now I cannot even eat at restaurants or eat chocolate without provoking another "blow", I think I should give it a try...

Hi! Paul I’m with the others on this. I suffer from both MS and eczema; my daughter’s boyfriend suffers from very bad psoriasis, and over the years has tried about everything he has been able to lay his hands on. Now I’m a big believer in alternative medicine, but due to my condition have found that many claim to have a cure for this or that only down the road to find not only does much of this stuff not work, but at times can worsen the condition.

None of this is meant in anyway to insult or imply that you are not genuine, just as I’m sure you will understand being cautious. Please feel free to email me the results of all your studies to date.

Until another time Clarty…
