    And you know who found out about all those issues? Other doctors and scientists. And not the random weirdo posting on Facebook about herbal tea or homeopathy

      Dunno. If you hear on Facebook about someone with the same symptoms as you having success with a different treatment because your doctor is too overworked to read the latest research, is that really a bad thing?
