Nutritionist Claims His Pre-Packaged Meals Are Dangerous

Posted by samzenpus on from the hoist-with-his-own-petard dept.

Nutrition guru Gary Null may be best known as an advocate for alternative medicines, or for his stance that HIV does not cause AIDS, but his recent lawsuit may raise more eyebrows. Gary is suing the maker of his pre-packaged "Power Meals," claiming that they will make you sick. From the article: "In a lawsuit filed in New York on April 26, Gary Null alleges that he became severely ill after eating a dietary supplement that caused him to develop a number of painful symptoms. In fact, Gary Null alleges, 'Gary Null's Ultimate Power Meal' almost killed Gary Null."

    I don't get this... he can easily convince me that HIV does not cause AIDS... just let himself get injected with a nice shot of the virus... oh, yeah, he believes in alternative medicine. from Tim Minchin: "You know what they call alternative medicine that works?" "Medicine!"

      Homeopathy has been proven countless, countless times to do absolutely jack-fucking-shit.
