We seem not to discuss alternative medicine too much here, even though it is a form of woo. This is a great site to debunk a lot of it...

I was big on Dr. Merola last year (www.merola.com). I believed in his stuff because he had credentials and had a lot of followers.

Looked for a minute. One of the top articles immediately scare mongers with the 'protect your family and loved ones...' then the preview ends.

The alt meds claim Big Pharma treats disease and doesn't prevent it, therefore bringing in the most money.

At the same time, the alt meds have products that don't treat cure nor prevent disease.

And they often cost a ton of money.

Once again, South Park has an awesome take on it.
