Steve_colour-se7en Report post Posted December 31, 2005 (edited) I had originally placed this news article on my own website, however I thought it may be of interest to some members on the forum here, for the whole of the article use the link below. A published scientific paper suggests gold salts -- the treatment that may have prompted improvement in the first child ever diagnosed with autism -- can affect mental conditions. "Although there is very little modern research on these applications for gold, historically one notable use of gold was as a 'nervine,' a substance that could revitalize people suffering from nervous conditions, a term we would today call neurological and psychiatric disorders, such as epilepsy and depression," according to the paper, "Gold and its relationship to neurological/glandular conditions." The paper appeared in 2002 in the International Journal of Neuroscience, co-authored by four researchers at the Meridian Institute, a Virginia-based non-profit group. It is online at meridianinstitute.com/ceu/ceu25gol.html. http://www.upi.com/ConsumerHealthDaily/vie...30-104250-2870r Steve..
