Fucking scam artists is all SLPs are. Chiropractors and accupuncturists have better results. They should cut funding and fire the lot and dump all the money saved into research. ...

It's for a good reason that people who stutter are skeptical of these miracle cures. In the past many snakeoil salesmen and scammers have preyed on the desperation in many of us in finding a cure....

I know of no science detailing this?... At any rate, you'd need a control group (and double blind studies, of course) to see whether there was any effect. At the same time, I understand supplements t...

Let's just say I'm highly skeptical. First, this isn't a peer reviewed paper or anything remotely close to it. One man's anecdote is basically worthless. Second, I believe something like 2/3 of th...

This is really hard to believe. I can't believe that dairy can be a cause of my stutter. I actually grew an intolerance to dairy a year after I started stuttering, roughly. It was the summer after fou...

Yeah, I was also told that I would grow out of my stutter but it didn't seem to help. Also, when I had a dental surgery I was told that I would not have a stutter, but that didn't fix it either....
