12-year-old Texas girl dies after parents used smoothies to treat life-threatening injuries
I saw someone post a video recently about how whole food 'unprocessed' (lol) smoothies are a cure for cancer and a bunch of other things. And she was 100% serious and had a not insignificant following. I just hope someone with cancer doesn't see it and believe it.
My dad tried treating his cancer with naturopathic remedies. They, uh, weren't doing anything. Then he had a stroke and was confined to the hospital for months. The hospital, naturally, gave him real treatments for cancer. He died about a year later, but his last test showed no cancer markers.
I mean, one high profile case of it was Steve Jobs. The dude followed an all-fruit diet that basically caused his pancreatic cancer, and then tried to treat the cancer with more fruits.
IIRC, Ashton Kutcher ended up trying his diet when prepping to play him in a biopic. And it caused so many health issues that Kutcher had to stop.
Had a colleague get diagnosed with cancer. Like really early and one of the ones that is considered very treatable with high success rate for treatment.
He said he didn't trust the medical industry and vitamin c would take care of it. He died from what was probably a very treatable disease.
Of course he had some family trauma, a loved one with colon cancer that tried long shot treatment but still died, despite suffering from the treatments along the way. He even says the doctors said the circumstances were way better for him, but he just wouldn't believe them.
