There is a risk here we are not talking about; Some significant number of people die every year trying low risk solutions to high risk problems, while not being qualified to judge risk.
Probiotics, tinctures, vitamins and a gluten free diet basically killed a friends mother who spent years on these things while her undiagnosed stomach cancer spread everywhere.
The issue as i see it, is that there is profit to be made stringing people along from one 'cheap and harmless shot in the dark' to the next.
- encryptluks2 4y agoI don't think people are advocating to not see a doctor and discuss issues, but that there are intermediary steps that can be tried. Sorry to hear what happened to your friend's mom. I've seen the opposite where doctors will over prescribe and rarely ever test and that ends up killing people too. There is absolutely nothing wrong with trying supplemental treatments and it is really no different than OTC remedies that people spend billions on each year.
