The 10 worst health HOAXES pushed as “science” over the last 100 years

Beware of the 10 worst health HOAXES pushed as “science” over the last 100 years

LIE #1. If a health study is “peer reviewed,” then it is evidence-based, reliable and true. Did you know that as much as 90% of the published medical information that doctors rely on is completely wrong? It’s true. Many science “studies” and research have predetermined outcomes and results that are scripted first by the companies and corporations that will profit from the product, then, after that, the tests are “run” by shill scientists who twist, distort or even discard the findings that don’t fit the scripted conclusion. Then big bucks trade hands and the findings are published in quack journals like JAMA (Journal of the American Medical Association). This has been going on for a century.

LIE #2. If a food additive, prescription drug or immunization is approved by the FDA or the CDC, then scientists have tested it thoroughly for “safety and efficacy” and you should consume it without question. The CDC and FDA are businesses that function for profit at the health expense of Americans. Never rely on anything approved by these rogue “regulatory” agencies that are in the business of chronic sick care, and have been since their inception. Ask your naturopathic doctor for advice about food and medicine that’s “approved” by the FDA or CDC.

LIE #3. Cigarettes are good for digestion and recommended by more than 20,000 doctors in America. Yes, they did do that. Doctors advertised their favorite brands and lied to Americans for decades after science had proven cigarette smoke causes lung cancer.

Evolution is prob the worst of all lies, because it makes science itself look like a hoax.

Did you know that as much as 100% of the statistics published on Natural News are made up on the spot?  It's true.

http://rationalwiki.org/wiki/Argument_by_assertion.
I really wish that these sites would back up their statements properly, because I agree with a few of the things that they say (although a lot of it, e.g. climate change being a lie, is just straight-up bullshit).  If they wrote some articles that contained real information instead of sensationalist clickbait bullshit, it would be much easier to promote some of their views to other people.

These clickbait sites wouldn't exist if you stopped supporting them.

Wrong! Why are you wrong? Because Natural News gives linked bibliographies at the bottoms of their articles. This means that you can go to other sites, and from those sites to still more sites, to confirm what Natural News says.

I have always wondered about how many cancer patients died after all the chemotherapy and later have the cancer resurface again and this time even stronger than before and the cost of treatment is so outrageous to think that it barely works at all.

They look very much like similar sites.  Sites such as truthwiki.org, conspiracy-theory based sites with similar clickbait titles and little scientific research.  The few of them which are not like this are generally still opinion pieces (e.g. http://ahrp.org/lies-damned-lies-and-medical-science/

Rational Wiki details a different way of using the argument by assertion logical fallacy:

Alternately, the argument can be phrased as:
X has been asserted as true many times.
Things that have been asserted as true many times are true.
X is true.

If you can give me meta-analysis for several reputable studies suggesting that 90% of information doctors are relying on (very vague sentence there, I'll leave it open to your interpretation) are incorrect, then I'm listening.  Otherwise, it looks like you're getting caught up in clickbait.

Not to mention that Natural News hate Bitcoin anyway.

Number 3 goes against the doctor's oath. Those that were being paid by cigarette brands to advertise them to their patients should be made financially responsible for every confirmed case of lung cancer their patients report. They got money for advertising poison even though they swore to protect life and not do harm, now it's the time to pay it back.

Eeew. I'd rather have a poop transplant than have poop in my mouth.

Yup, poop transplant. It transfers the microbiota from one person to another. They tried isolating the microbes and cultivating those and transfer them rather than move all the poop but it was not as effective so they are now back to poop again.
