So let's see:
Ivermectin: Relatively low toxicity de-wormer
Fenbendazole: Relatively low toxicity de-wormer. However, it was actually investigated as a possible chemotherapy drug... but didn't produce notable results.
Aprocot seeds: Contain cyanogenic glycosides
Soursop tea: Contains annonacin, a neurotoxin linked to Parkison's disease.
Chlorine dioxide: Fuck no. Bleach/sterilizing chemical.
Dandelion root tea: Not gonna cure your cancer, but apparently fine?
Frequency therapy: Run of the mill "healing with tones" quackery
Antineoplastons: Never heard of this one. Apparently a term made up by a quack cancer center for some chemicals he found in urine.
I also find it amusing that they're railing against chemotherapy drugs... while pushing a drug investigated as a chemotherapy drug as well as some quack compounds pushed as chemotherapy drugs. I guess it's only bad when they're mainstream, hipster "You wouldn't have heard of them they're too underground" chemotherapy drugs get a pass.
Ivermectin for these people is basically like Windex in Big Fat Greek Wedding.
Was just about to say - you can probably find some literature on most of those that COULD sway someone who doesn't understand statitics or peer reviewed scientific papers, but fuck me... Chlorine Dioxide? It's fucking Bleach!
This is on the level of Trump's "inject some bleach in me to kill all the bugs" (paraphrasing) I suppose technically that would kill the pathogens, but most of them would outlive the host it killed first.
You can always find a study that "proves" your point, but that doesn't mean that the study was done right.
So now they think RF has health benefits, maybe they will stop spreading the cell phone cancer/covid/mind control/death ray nonsense.
As someone who works with RF for work I apparently never have to worry about cancer. So that's a plus I guess.
Dandelion tea... I guess it can be considered healthy alongside other vegetable soups.
Sounds like we should just leave these people to their own devices and let Darwinism take its course.
While i agree, there's a couple problems with that idea, imo. First--they insist on shoving their position on this down everyone else's throat. For the most part, we're talking about people who's central goal in life is to interfere with other people's liberties, choices, preferences. They aren't content to just take their ridiculous miracle cures--they insist everything mainstream (proven treatments used commonly everywhere) are actually poison or nonsense/fake/placebos etc. Covid made it clear what type of people we're dealing with.
The other problem is when this shit ultimately doesn't work, they still come to the hospital demanding treatment anyway. Often treating the staff like shit because they don't trust them plus they're eating crow over being wrong about their conspiracy-cures. Just lovely people lol
I do agree though--they should put their money where their mouth is and pioneer a whole new field of medicine since they all know so much better than the rest of us.
