Analysis / Bias
In review, Get Holistic Health is a quackery-level pseudoscience website that routinely publishes false and/or dangerous medical claims. For example, they frequently promote miracle cancer cures such as these:
- The guy who cured stage IV prostate cancer with baking soda and molasses
- A healer from Austria cured 45 000 people of cancer with 42 days juice recipe
- ‘Every type of cancer can be cured in weeks’, according to this doctor
When not promoting miracle cancer cures, they publish misleading anti-vaccination propaganda such as these:
- Measles Outbreaks have nothing to Do with Non-Vaccination trends
- Why the Amish people don’t get autism, cancer, and heart disease
- Lead vaccine developer of Gardasil comes clean and says ‘adverse side effects much greater than the risk of cervical cancer.’
This source is also anti-GMO and promotes quack diets that promise impossible results.
Failed Fact Checks
- “Burning sage kills 94% of airborne bacteria, disease-causing strains stay gone for 30 days” – False
- Science just confirmed eating turmeric every day could ‘reverse cancer’ – False
Overall, we rate Get Holistic Health a Quackery Level Pseudoscience website based on promoting dangerous cancer cures and false information as opposed to the scientific consensus. (D. Van Zandt 12/15/2019) Updated (08/24/2022)
