– Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease responds well to progesterone from a compound pharmacy.
– Scars respond well to progesterone from a compound pharmacy. Just like fibroids in a women’s breast (like scars) respond to progesterone applied topically on the breast.
– Tramidol should be replaced by Ketoprofen from a compound pharmacist.
– Arthritis responds well to the alkaline water from a compound pharmacist, as opposed to the caustic prescriptions you may have been given.

– Disease is acidic and Health is alkaline.
