Nutritionist Claims His Pre-Packaged Meals Are Dangerous
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."
And Tim Minchin is the fount of all wisdom? Natural, herbal, and homeopathic healing has been around a lot longer than so-called, western medicine. The Japanese and Chinese were expertimenting with all manner of plants and herbs to cure illness centuries before anyone heard of bacteria, let alone an antibiotic. The Japanese and Chinese have vastly more information and experience in healing than westernized medicine and it is outright ignorance and arrogance to disregard such knowlege, no to mention potentially dangerous. Tim Minchin speaks like a lobbyist for Big Pharma!! When has Big Pharma let us down? Imagine the imense financial losses that would occur if if got out that natural remedies for disease and illness are present. I would not agree with an insightful tag to rleibman. His argument is easily shot down.
