Most of us don't drink it by the cup or bottle. It takes an absurd amount to turn your skin blue, depending on what type of CS they are using.
As for studies, I wouldn't expect the gov't interests to expend energy on this product, any more than they do on other alternative products. This is not a drug or a chemical that they can profit off of, plus they support dependency on the system via a sick population. They aren't interested in what leads to health or cures, other than to try to ban them.

They used the type recommended to them. What was available.

There were tests done on this product and not by Gov agencies. Universities and drug companies do most testing. Don't put research down because it's keeping millions of diabetics and cancer victims and others alive.

That's the same old lament, the same old song sung by the gullible and those selling these useless products. CS was the "in thing" with the alts for awhile. Now you seldom see it mentioned.

We use good old Goldenseal, Garlic, Grape seed extract and do steam inhalations of good old water and thyme. We also up our vitamin C intake and drink green tea with lemon. Works every time.
