And goes along with my statements about "ok, fine, now prove that this stuff actually works" -- suffice to say that this sort of evidence definitely does not, and even proves the opposite: that not only does it not work, but could very well be damaging in and of itself. Not a winning ticket for team alternative medicine (plus that it preyed upon someone in pain who was at their wits' end to find a way for the pain to stop, thus willing to suspend criticism on an off chance).
Or, I know too much about how food is grown to actually fall for buying a $4 "organic" tomato at some pimped out grocery store that sells hype as much as food products. (but admittedly indulge in buying lavender oil to use as perfume -- which is actually cheaper than buying actual perfume, but I wouldn't eat the damn stuff!).
Thought this might be a good one:
