Jeopardy! - Mayim Bialik's Naturopathic Homeopathic Pseudoscience

here, an interesting tidbit:

 001. at Mother Jones, in "Who Is Mayim Bialik? A Terrible Choice for Jeopardy Host", senior editor Kiera Butler writes:

"Bialik is also a long-standing proponent of the pseudoscientific field of naturopathy. She has hawked a questionable supplement that claims to enhance brain function, including in an ad that’s on air right now, and in which she leverages her degrees. She’s been featured recently on a naturopathy podcast. In April, on her own podcast, Bialik ran an episode called 'Alternative Medicine, Acupuncture and Adrenal Failure - Doulas Do It Right.' In the show, she interviewed midwife Elizabeth Bachner, whose naturopathic clinic in Los Angeles, Gracefull, peddles scientifically unfounded treatments, including IV therapy for anti-aging, oral chelation for heavy metals, and 'homeopathic hormone-balancing injections'";

really.
