Thank you, Sharon, for your insight. I never know if I am just getting paranoid in my old age or what
You make a very interesting point about salves, though. I was entirely caught up with the ingestion part.
The plant I wrote of above was one that I originally came across when I was a young woman and was looking for a natural aid/alternative to use when I attempted to quit smoking. I thought I found it until I did further research and discovered the abortive nature of the plant, too. Needless to say, it changed my mind about using it.
Deb, you are very kind indeed
and I think that you have a valid point of view. I am glad that Dave is always open to discussion and that, even if we see things a little differently, we can all chat about it. I think that your post was helpful and is definitely food for thought
