Dear Andy,

Any views on this?

Thanks

Every time I see these claims I ask the same question. Where are the testimonials from cured patients?

There is no science behind this and frankly, it sounds like it could cause harm via infection.

They have treated around 130 people, is it not pssble to connect some one who got treatment from this doctor. They are based in Gujrat, India. is it possble for someone who lives there to get connected and cross check.

They have taken reference from Charaka Samhita hence there is no harm to check.

There is surely no harm in getting this verified. I have asked one of my known, who will be visiting and meeting the doctor. Will keep you posted. Thanks

Agreed above.

There is no science and please don't lose your hard earned money to these tactics....

Hello,

When I was a child of 7/8 years, a close relative advised my mom to give me a glass of GOAT MILK everyday. He even presented us with one. One goat became two. and for 3/4 years I took goat milk regularly. and no, it didnt raise my

 People still don't know much on thal. So many people like these esteemed dr of Ayurveda and homeopath are coming up with things, to attract the attention of people who are always looking for alternatives to medical science, because of its inability to offer a  swallowable pill as treatment for sickness like thal. So I don't think one should waste money and time on GOAT BLOOD. Wonder what these goats must be going through!

But good if they can prove it.

Agreed above.

Have called the doctor. He is saying they do not charge anything from the patients and the treatment is free of cost.

Considering the potential for incurable and serious infections that can be introduced by cross contaminated human blood with animal blood - i would be highly highly fearful of this methodology.
And truly, if it were this simple would medical science not have discovered it?  If we can extract and harvest insulin and thyroid hormone from surely animal blood to cure anemia would have been used were it not extremely risky and have absolutely no basis/logic to suggest that it would be curative.   Humans are sensitive to the blood/bone marrow of other humans and I can't see why it would not be more dangerous to introduce the blood of another species.

Be careful!!

I'd agree with this too.

Goats, especially animals might be having several "hidden" infections that we do not know. For example flues originating from chickens, etc.

So it's better we maintain a safe distance from all these.

I also called up the Doctor and he is advising us to come to Gujrat for the treatment. Though we do not agree with this Goat blood technology but I also believe  that at times some small thngs leads to bigger innovation.
may be it is good subject to be further investigated by research scholars.
