I'm sorry there's no one here to thank. Anyone connected to Wikipedia already knows, intellectually, that it touches millions of lives. Let me make this a little more concrete. I was really laid low by dyspepsia last year: hurting, scared, debilitated. My GI specialist told me science didn't understand dyspepsia and he had no remedies to offer. I found this article while looking for my own answers, and I've just written the manufacturer to thank them for all the comfort it's given me over the past year. Note that this didn't even turn up on MEDLINE, as far as I know. So, all I am trying to say is that if you contribute knowledge to Wikipedia, you never know who it may help, or how much. Thank you.

The reference used in this article refers to a study into it's (Iberogasts) ability to reduce the severity of induced mucositis in rat intestine. The study clearly states at the end of the abstract that "it conferred no significant protection".^[1] This product is often refered to as "clinically proven" in it's own advertising. Does this study represent the evidence for such assertions. The reference is used here to support the statement that this product has been part of clinical studies. However, as the following statement indicates that this product is effective the use of the reference is misleading.
