                          and Alternative Medicine
 Dear 
                          L. J. We 
                          have received your e-mail regarding Lloyd Wright's book 
                          on alternative treatments for Hepatitis C.  Thank 
                          you for sharing this information with us. The views 
                          of the public regarding our research are very important 
                          to us. NCCAM's 
                          mission is to explore complementary and alternative 
                          healing practices in the context of rigorous science, 
                          train complementary and alternative medicine (CAM) researchers, 
                          and disseminate authoritative information to the public 
                          and professionals. Mr. 
                          Wright's information will be made available to the staff 
                          at NCCAM.  NCCAM staff receive large volumes of 
                          information from scientists and concerned individuals. 
                           They are glad to consider new theories about CAM 
                          and use this information according to their scientific 
                          judgment.  We hope you will understand, however, 
                          that unless staff members have a question about the 
                          information presented, their heavy workloads prevent 
                          them from responding to each person who offers ideas. Thank 
                          you for your interest in NCCAM.  Sincerely 
                          yours,Terry Evans
