It sounds as though Tennessee pharmacist, Larry Rawdon, is in trouble. According to a report in the Tennessean (11 Sept, 2007)

Then, in authentic Tennessee style,
“Rawdon calls his approach to health care “Health God’s Way.” It’s a form of naturopathy” using natural remedies such as foods, herbs and minerals to treat illness. Naturopathy is legal in some states, but not in Tennessee.
“It’s not me healing people, it’s God,” Rawdon said.
“God sent Joshua into the Promised Land and told him not to destroy the fruit trees because in them is a man’s life that he can eat and live,” he said. “So the life force that is in the fruits and vegetables, it’s what our cells need for the healing process.” ”
. . . .
The Board of Medical Examiners found Rawdon guilty of treating patients without a medical license in addition to practising naturopathy.
Now “Dr” (of pharmacy) Rawdon seems to work for Wellness America (no mention there of the fine). Their mission statement is
Our Mission is to gather, educate, and empower individuals to take control of their health and wealth by applying biblical principles to their everyday life. To promote prevention of illness, wellness from sickness, fitness for the body, freedom from debt, and health for the whole man BODY – SOUL – SPIRIT. |
You couldn’t make it up.
Very interesting uh? Someone fined a million dollars for pretending to be able to cure serious diseases by nutrition and supplements. I wonder if that could ever happen here?
For a moment when I read about the divine healing, I wondered if it was the chap that Orac wrote about:
You might savour natural cynic’s offered definition in the comments:
“The Lord” has given him a Masters degree? Wish I’d thought of that, would have saved me a lot of time and money.
Wilsontown – isn’t that what some honorary qualifications or visiting academic posts are for? It strikes me that both of these would save a lot of time, money and effort.
[…] is a branch of quackery that is so barmy that it’s actually banned in some US states. A pharmacist was fined $1 miilion for practising it. But Barts encourages […]
Too bad the ‘report’ only alledges guilt, but does nothing to disprove that Dr Rawson’s clients have not been delivered and helped by his counsel.
Oh, and by the way, of those who claim ‘quackery’, how will this stand up against those whose health did greatly improve, by applying the principles of Dr Rawdon, as he prescribed?
The ‘board’ of medical examiners may be perhaps influenced by the ones in whose pockets they dwell. The corruption of the medical field, the AMA, and the ‘pharm’ corporations -especially with undeniable proof especially since the COVID hoax nightmare-, including cases of ‘euthanasia’, has not disproven the work and track record of truly dedicated ones such as Dr Rawdon.
Even a self-respeting ‘kangaroo’ would be hopping mad at this extermity in what may be ‘his court’. Just returning the volley served.
Your reference to the “Covid hoax” show that you are a proponent of the Trump/ RFK Jr school of imaginary medicine. That is so dangerous that I almost deleted your comment. But I guess that it’s useful to get periodical reminders about just how far some people are from reality.
