Naturopathy's "Seriously Misleading Claims": Ontario's Kingston Whig Standard and the National Post

here, some of the typical madness:

001. at thewhig.com, Sharon Kirkey writes in "Rabid Dog Saliva, Epsom Salt 'Detox' Baths, Coffee Enemas for Cancer Among the Most Bizarre Naturopathic Cures Online" [and the National Post] (2018-10-22):

"a B.C. naturopath who came under fire earlier this year after she boasted of using homeopathic saliva from a rabid dog to cure aggression in a preschooler has published new claims. She says she cured a two-year-old of 'tics' using a homeopathic remedy for 'frights' that his mother likely passed along during pregnancy; and fixed dyslexia in a boy who 'seems a bit spacey' and saw words floating on the page with a single dose of a homeopathic mixture made from marijuana [...]";

not suprising claims from a naturopath.

"many naturopaths promote 'treatments' for cancer [...] naturopaths offer treatments from infrared sauna therapy, ozone injections, ionic foot baths and coffee enemas to high-dose intravenous infusions of vitamin C and sodium bicarbonate []";

old junk that never seems to die.  Beware.

well, B.C., you let them self-regulate.  And why would nonsense have a problem with itself?
