From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I got your message on my talk page. If you are offended by my removal of your additions, I am offended by your shouting "censorship". Let's stop being offended and hold a normal discussion.

Google Answers is not what one calls an authorative source of medical research. Carbonoxolone is a liquorice derivative that has been used for peptic ulcer for many years before DGL was introduced, and is deprecated because PPIs are just much better (and they don't cause hypertension and hypokalemia). The cabbage stuff is speculative, and unless you can give a good academic source it does not belong on the page. If you have benefited from it in the past, this may not automatically apply to all those other people with peptic ulcers. That's why clical studies are performed.

An other option is making a section with "alternative treatments". You are fully in your right to list things that are used by lots of people. Again, you will need to support assertions you make in such a paragraph.

I hope this is clear, and I hope you can understand. The Google Answers page probably lists a couple of good references that should make things a lot easier. JFW | T@lk 10:47, 22 July 2005 (UTC)
