Coral Calcium

Ju$t another vitamin $cam

Robert R. Barefoot, of Wickenberg, Arizona, would like you to believe that limestone obtained from Okinawa provides "the scientific secret of health and youth" and can cure cancer. His ideas are promoted through books, lectures, his Web site, an audiotape, a 30-minute infomercial, interviews, and thousands of Web sites that sell "coral calcium" products.

I spent 8 years on Okinawa and never heard of the stuff. That was over 30 years ago tho. If you step on the coral, you can get a terrible infection, so I didn't see any reason to eat it.
