Re: A&G Hair Complex from A&G Skin Solutions

Guys, what's the likelyhood that this product would be pulled and no longer available for sale? I am currently undecided if I want to purchase this, because of money issues (and also about if it works or not). If only it was a little cheaper, I am just thinking about it now, I wait for people to po...

I had that idea of purchasing 2 right off the bat as well but I figure nothing can happen until results get reported.. and I should be in the first group to know since I'm trying it out.

nope, never. It's the same if I get sick though.. massive immune response. Fortunately I don't get sick often.. maybe once every 2 years, but when I do.. oh boy.

I really want to try immunotherapy and see if that works. Though I hear it doesn't work for everybody.

Well okay, let's try it this way. Humecants draw in moisture because they contain -OH groups which participate in hydrogen bonding with the water molecules. So maybe it's possible for upon exposure to air those weak H-bonds to be broken allowing for evaporation. In this case it would be the water ev...
