I added fair amount of information which might be seen as suggesting that it does not work, but that was because that is the accepted scientific take on it (or rather that it is utterly unproven). I tried to keep the language unbiased and just report what I read elsewhere, and above all, to provide references and links. --Fitzhugh 06:55, 10 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Gaston Naessens

The inventor of 714-X, Gaston Naessens, NEVER claimed that 714-X was a "cure" for any disease or medical condition. The word "cure" has been attached by orthodox biologists, doctors, and scientists. If a person reads about the trial of Gaston Naessens and his research, this is made clear. The formula, 714-X is taken from his name: "G" is the 7th letter of the alphabet, "N" is the 14th letter of the alphabet, and "X" is the 24th letter of the alphabet and also the year of Naessen's birth (1924). Since Gaston never applied for a patent on his invention (which is based on advanced biology called "Orthobiology"), this was an ingenious way of attaching his name to his invention.

714-X is indeed NOT a cure. What it will do is offer an alternative way to stabilize or boost a human's immune system when it is sick. This may, in time, allow the immune system to become healthy enough to help fight off various infections and/or abnormal conditions.

If we continue to ban anything that is unorthodox or nontraditional, we might as well go back to the days when patients had no say about the medical treatments they would or would not accept and undergo. I am thankful every day that I do have the right to choose traditional Western medicine and treatments OR wholistic medicine, naturopathy, orthobiology, accupuncture, or any other alternative medicine. The fact that health insurance companies now recognize the benefits of some forms of alternative medicine says a lot. It took WAY too long, in my opinion, for patients to be allowed a choice. 714-X, too, will hopefully be recognized soon for what it really is: an alternative means to stabilize the immune system.RaeGirl 16:30, 9 April 2007 (UTC)
