@jonathanstea It sounds like it makes sense until you apply it to real life. If I'm in cardiac arrest, I want a defibrillator, not a vegeburger.
@jonathanstea Ironically, pharmaceuticals usually do treat the root cause while other therapies typically treat the symptoms.
@jonathanstea Are you trying to tell me that Oil of Oregano isn't going to kill the 5G nanobots?

@jonathanstea But when you promote imaginary "root causes" for diseases, you can sell imaginary cures for them.
