I keep hearing in this thread and the other that the Nutriscan is a scam, but how do we really know that? I know the test is unproven in the scientific community, which is important to do, but does that automatically mean that Dr. Dodds is purposely scamming people? Couldn't she really believe her product works? I absolutely agree that she should have peers review her product, but as I've stated before, she has done so many wonderful things throughout her career. That means something to me. When I was looking at Healthymouth, the fact that Dr. Dodds did the clinical trials from it also meant something to me. She was someone I trusted who was validating Heslthymouth, and it also had the backing of the VOHC.
As I have stated in the past, I travel approximately 45 miles round trip to go to my vet in the Hamptons. I had been going to this practice because my first breeder said he specialized in small dogs. The vet retired and my vet bought the practice. I love him, and I have been going to his practice for almost twenty years. He practices Integrative or Complementary Medicine, combining conventional medicine with Chinese medicine. Katie's vet is known nationwide for his use of Chinese Medicine. I was not a believer at the time, but my views have changed radically. In most cases we have used conventional medicine for my little girls through the years. In some cases we used herbal remedies, and they really worked. He is not a salesman at all, and he has earned my deep appreciation and respect. I've met so many people through the years, and that's why my views changed so radically. His results with cancer are amazing. He first recommends surgery when it can be done, and then he uses alternative therapies. I am writing this to use as an example. Most people don't think these therapies work, and they are entitled to the way they feel. In talking to people all these years, I know they work, even in the times when my girls were given herbs. I don't dismiss things, especially when it's from someone I trust the way I trust my vet. |
