Yes, this research was a clinical trial with a veteran population, so I assume it had to be grant-funded within the VA. That's why I found it especially surprising that it was based on pseudoscience. I don't think I'm an outlier in thinking the mechanism being researched is pseudoscientific since it has been discussed extensively as pseudoscience including in talks I've attended at ABCT.
That's helpful feedback though from you and
@StellaB that it's not worth being concerned about the site based on a single person. Thanks for your thoughts!
