Dear Quantum,  

I went to your site and used the Drug and Herb Interaction tools to find out if my supplements would interfere with the medicine my doctor prescribed. Luckily everything is OK. But having this resource is such a service to us readers. Most doctors I know, just don't know enough about the subject.(go to Health Encyclopedia section.)

Dear Quantum,

Thank you for your article on head lice.My children came home with them just after school started. I live in upstate New York. I couldn't believe it - we've never had them in our household.

 

I read the story ad then actually ordered your HairClean 1-2-3 product and it did what you said. Much better than using the pesticide based drug store brands. 

 

Thanks,

 

Patricia M., Buffalo, NY
