As always, I not sure who's serious and who's having a laugh on this thread but the author has just misspelled the word nutraceutical. Or am I...
Indeed and that's the initial attraction of it. It's a lot more than can be said for just about any doctor who routinely prescribes pwME anything...
Hey, your p.s. came too late! I couldn't see while I was typing my reply. :bag:
A few sections from the paper that touches on some of the points raised above.
