I completely agree with the facts. However, some doctors, in extreme cases, recommend the comsumption of petroleum jelly (vaseline) as a laxitive. The buildup inside the body is damaging, but the buildup of toxins caused by inability to excrete waste can be infinitely worse. This should not be suggested for anyone unless it is an extreme case and no other means have helped solve the problem. Everyone has had experience with vaseline on the skin. It seals in moisture. Oils do essentially the same thing. Just imagine that inside our little gecko's body...=(
