Firstly NextDNS won't even let me open your site:<p>> <i>habd.as is being blocked by Cryptojacking, Goodbye Ads, notracking and oisd.</i><p>Then when I bypass that, I see this:<p>You're selling an herb as a medicinal cure that hasn't been tested by labs or gone through human trials, could:<p>* cause severe side effects to internal organs that aren't immediately visible on the outside<p>* cause bad alergic reactions in some people<p>* react badly with other medicines<p>* very well kill someone.<p>There's a reason that you have to go through a years (or even decades)-long process to get a medicine approved. You haven't even tried to go through that.<p>I'm not saying this substance did not work for you - it might very well have. But you're a sample size of <i>one</i>. You have <i>no</i> idea about potential side effects or risks.<p>Remember, just because something is "natural" doesn't mean it's safe.<p>So yeah. I totally understand why a payment processor cancelled your account. You could literally kill someone with this stuff.
