This Mayo Clinic article sums it up well about why people believe . They aren't unintelligent, maybe just out of hope they can find relief.

"It's frustrating to have persistent symptoms your doctor can't readily explain. But accepting a medically unrecognized diagnosis from an unqualified practitioner may leave the real cause — such as depression or fibromyalgia — undiagnosed, while it continues to take its toll."

If you work or have worked in the art world and think esotericism, alternative medicine etc. is dangerous, wrong and largely Nazi stuff, a lot of it really isn't that funny as for many other people. Serious ´, and this is really awful most artists I met, people around believe in this shit"!. This is a real problem. This is really no fun. Also this is also a bigger reason than they might realize that buyers don't take them fully "human" or sane... just special.

I'm collecting old - unintentionally. But each one is kind of fun and interesting.

I think this one must've been referenced in a podcast or another book I read (Vitamania) about . Published in 2006🤔. Reading it anyway. I always want to balance out the religious fervor around fads with some sort of science or fact. Not all popular things are bad, but I usually have a lot of questions.

Infuriating.

"Advertisements exploited the hope of patients with terminal and poor prognoses by sharing testimonials of past patients..."

More regulation & regulatory action needed.

It's widely been reported that died "after a long illness" of "kidney failure." What is being under-reported is the role of and especially in her death. Alternative Medicine is not "harmless." It kills people. Homeopathy kills people. They die because they trust charlatans. irishmirror.ie/showbiz/us-goss

🌱Clinic focused on the care of each unique individual 🌱

Conners Clinic aims to be one that puts the individual first, focusing on each unique quality.

We believe treatment is not a one size fits all protocol. Each person responds differently & needs something different than the next.

Focusing on the practitioner to patient relationship is important to us in the Clinic, as we hope to make our work our ministry.
