It also annoys me to no end when these alternative medicine people like Natureopathy follows get interviewed on a national radio or tv broadcast. Promoting books like "What your physician doesn't know, and it can kill you"
They are trying to sell others on their ideas so they end up attacking and trying to discredit physicians, this can hurt the patient doctor relationship. I once listened to some quack author say how certain drugs (like lipator) can damage your DNA and hurt children that live near you since you "sweat out the toxins". Saying doctors often only perscribe these drugs to get a commision from the drug corperations.
It leads to people not trusting their doctors. People were calling into this show saying how they "just dumped their persciption drugs down the toliet" and praising how this book author "opened their eyes and saved their family"
