This is what pseudoscience looks like under the guise of "integrative medicine" clinics. It's unethical to deceive patients by paying lip service to science. It's unethical to financially exploit people's emotional vulnerabilities and serious health conditions.

Mercola makes millions by scamming millions with alternative medicine pseudoscience and by spreading anti-vaccine propaganda. In his latest newsletter, he promotes the scientifically absurd idea that HIV doesn’t cause AIDS. But don’t forget to shop at his store on the way out.

Naturopaths: “Our training is just like a medical doctors’!”...🤗 Sure...you’re just missing medical school, residency, board exams, a single day in the e.r., ICU, CCU, any other wards, & ever being taught by a real medical doctor. Other than that...it’s like...identical! 🤨

Oh wow, this is a doozy of misrepresentation of cancer statistics - let us go through their claims and see what the evidence actually shows. Spoiler alert: there is an ongoing trend of increased cancer in young people (<50 years-old) since the mid-90s that is continuing.
