So they should be avoided by people with rheumatoid arthritis,
lupus, etc? That's a good warning to give people.

I think that you misunderstood. By "boost immunity," she clearly meant
"increase the likelihood that the D.A. will grant you immunity from
prosecution." That may help explain why so many alternative medicine
types manage to avoid being prosecuted for fraud.

I'm staying away in case they boost my IgE response. I have enough
