So I'm bord, and tired of all this misinformation on this site so I'm going give some links to prove it's a bunch of crap. I just want to make sure your not using this site to get medical advice. because that would be like, :bonk:

I put this in the debate section just in case anyone wants to argue this is a good site, but I'm not all that worried about someone doing that

Most of the links have more to do with the man behind the site but I think you will still get the idea.

Um. What are you trying to disprove?


All the flashing and bad HTML on the first one makes my head hurt and I don't want to open the rest. : P

I'm really not sure.... I've been told that alot of people use this site for advice and after some reasearch that seems like a bad idea. Thats all, no more, no less.

I thought it was going to be about ducks too. Watching ducks quack.

QuackWatch.com=Organization dedicated to fighting health-care related frauds and hoaxes offers critiques of alternative medicines, dubious products, and questionable advertisements. With Dr.Stephen Barrett, M.D., a retired psychiatrist who heads Quackwatch.

So pretty much...watch out for the Duck doctors out there or qjust wacky stuff. They might be quacks :biglaugh:.
I read some of the links, it's all quacky to me.

Quackery and how it should be defined....
