Thanks Jim,

[Guest guest]

I found his web sites (there are many) and wrote him but I also found a site

discrediting him as a quack. What/how do you know about him? Thanks

so much for your help,

Oh, yes. The dreaded Quackwatch!

 

Now, Dave, please do some research on Dr. Stephen Barrett and his

soldiers.... And you really will have found some genuine " quacks " .

Barrett, apparently financed by big pharma, has been reportedly (from

mainstream sources), sued by several Naturopathic Doctors only to snap

back with amazing resiliency. As I recall, Dr. Mercola was one of

them. There are numerous sites pointing out the obvious, but start with

reading his web site and move on from there. He has stepped on a lot of

good people's toes and some have bitten him back successfully.

 

After reading his site, think back: Did you notice that Gary Null, Dr.

Weil, & virtually all non-mainstream/drug path Drs, all antioxidants,

all chiropractors, all acupuncturists, all ayurvedics, any forms of

electrotherapy, all chinese medicine, all herbalists, all forms of

alternative cancer treatment, MSM & Glucosamine, vit C ( & probably D and

Magnesium, in time) and all homeoepaths earn spots on his list of quacks

and quack treatments? Also, please note that our concerns with mercury

in dentistry are still a scam? And organic foods are a scam? In fact,

after reading his site, I gather that just trying to stay healthy is

simply a waste of time in Dr. Barrett's humble opinion.

 

From what I have read, Dr. Barrett has never actually practiced

medicine (psychiatry?) in his long and successful career as a

protagonist & he has never won a single court case (last I heard) so he

is well financed. However, I like having this clown around because he

exposes big pharmacy for exactly what it is.

 

Whenever you read the term Quack... always beware! Absolutely nothing

is good for you except pre-prepared foods... none is ever questioned,

but organic foods are a waste of time. Certainly, pharmaceutical drugs

are all great. He has never seen a bad one... from what one would

gather after reading his site.

 

In fact, Dave, when I see that someone has made his Quack List, I

consider it a high form of endorsement... And so do the courts.
