>I thought the methylene-blue-for-cancer types continued their medicine while taking other things as extras

There's no way you don't know that for example Steve Jobs ignored his cancer until it killed him because of absurd beliefs about "health". Surely you know about cancer patients dying because they found someone who promised them a cure rather than their doctor offering them a 60% chance through immense pain and struggle.

>Personally, I've swung over to the laissez-faire side of medicine.

We had laissez-faire medicine. It cured almost no one and killed hundreds for no reason. We HAVE laissez-faire medicine. There's almost no regulation in the "Supplements" aisle.

So why doesn't it work?
