Donations help fund this site and my efforts to help people reclaim their health. It also helps me personally because I am physically crippled and have very few options in income. Every little bit counts. I do not charge for this information because everyone should have access to it, and people learning to take charge of their own health makes me happy.
You can support me on Patreon by becoming patron on any of the available options and signing up for a monthly subscription. You have the option to opt out at any time!
