Trouble is, we're not always rational about stuff like this. Says the woman with a cigarette in her hand :p

The problem is that there are people and organisations who take advantage of that irrational instinct. Now, when that is to offer remedies and cures for arthritis, or help to get generally more healthy, or alleviate pain from any number of conditions, then I see no real problem. People suck it and see, and if it doesn't help, they can go down the traditional medical route. No great harm done, and quite possibly some benefit gained.

Advising a cancer sufferer to rid themselves of their tumour with the power of fruit or healing energy alone, is unacceptable. Not urging a cancer sufferer who goes to them for help without considering mainstream treatment first or alongside to seek further advice from their doctor, is unacceptable.
