Alternative and complementary medicine are on everyone's radar screen. Not only are more Americans visiting alternative practitioners than primary care physicians, but the U.S. government's National Institutes of Health organized the National Center for Complementary and Alternative Medicine (NCCAM) to find ways to integrate alternative medicine into conventional medicine.
The downside to the explosion of knowledge about nutrition, natural alternatives, and increased health is that detractors are springing up determined to halt choice in healthcare.
Organizations like Stephen Barrett's Quackwatch and Robert Baratz's National Council Against Health Fraud (NCAHF) have seemingly bottomless pockets to attack natural health proponents with lengthy articles on their websites and through expensive lawsuits. Stephen Barrett solicits reader donations on his website. He no longer practices psychiatry. How is he funding his expensive lawsuits?
Because you can't patent nature (and thereby profit from it), pharmaceutical companies apparently are threatened by the rise of natural medicine and people seeking improved health through nutrition and the use of essential oils. Some even believe they may be the deep pockets behind these front organizations. D. Gary Young and his company, Young Living Essential Oils, have come under attack on the Internet. A lengthy article on Barrett's website has rumors, gossip, and innuendo presented as if they were fact.
Gary Young is not the only natural health proponent whose integrity is being questioned. Several hundred people have made the list on Stephen Barrett's Quackwatch site with articles assailing their beliefs and their personal lives. Others who Stephen Barrett has gone after are Andrew Weil, M.D., Julian Whitaker, M.D., Ralph Moss, Ph.D., Gary Null, Ph.D., Earl Mindell, R.Ph., and Bernie Siegel, M.D. Even the late Dr. Linus Pauling has become a target.
Please click here to see an article that explains in detail who these “quackwatchers” are, why they are attacking the leaders of the natural health movement, and why it is vital that people listen with discernment to their voices. The disinformation about Gary Young and Young Living Essential Oils is refuted and the truth is documented.
A person's right to determine what type of healthcare they choose is a valuable freedom that no one, including Stephen Barrett, has the right to endanger. Freedom is costly to uphold. If you are seeking answers, we urge you to become informed by reading this important document.
