Gary Null is the Kent Hovind of Alternative Medicine

Thanks to all who mirrored. Gary Null is the “Grandaddy of All Quacks”. He was recently in the news, and I decided to do a little digging on his education, qualifications, and honors. What I learned was… well… not that surprising for a man that sells magnetic bras and chi-enhancing jock straps. Anyone who thinks Gary is a real contributor to the field of nutrition would do well to read his one 1982 article on garlic, or his Penthouse publications. I also find it highly suspect that he is both diagnosing the world’s ills, and also crassly selling the “cures” on his website. Gary Null’s “About Gary Null” gnhealth.com Dr. Lee Phillips examines Gary Null’s claims. lee-phillips.org Stephen Barrett, MD runs QuackWatch. Good background info. www.quackwatch.org

    I use Gary”s advice for mine and my families health. I don’t have to take any pain killers for my injuries. I was popping pills for years as prescribed by my old Medical Dr. these Doctors are just Drug pushers. They treat the Symptom not the cause. Gary Nulls advice helps people and it doesn’t have any side effects. Plus it doesn’t need a disclaimer like the Big Pharma commercials for prescription drugs. If you cannot figure that out, then too damn bad for you!

    I have always been a GN follower he has done some out standing work. Now after years I think this man is a fraud. I have my personal reasons I wont go into detail. Well I am in New York and after he was rushed to the ER for his kidney- it was stated he was so sick they had to isolate him from other patients. Now lets see how he pulls that off on his show. In my practice I have only known of one person that took the alternetive route 100%. And suceeded.

    3. Here is what a truly rational person would do, someone who doesn’t seem to exist anymore:

    There is this fellow, he’s a nut but he is right that vitamins can prevent many diseases, its interesting that he points out blah.. though I would advise against almost everything he says.

    There is this creationist, Kent.. etc.. he raises some very valid questions, like the standing trees in rock strata etc.. I disagree with his position of creationism.. etc. etc.

    You wouldn’t just snipe people.

  • SelfPromoting:

    2. The truth is, I’ve had small children point out things to me that I’ve never noticed before, and there is no way an intelligent full grown human being can’t say or have an opinion that is valid at least some of the time.

    You can disagree with creation etc.. but if you were TRULY rational you would actually listen anyways, and sift what was interesting and the real valid points from what you perceived as wrong. Instead of blanketing the whole person and everything they say as invalid

  • SelfPromoting:

    I don’t know why you guys who claim to worship logic and rationality seem to paint people black and white.

    This Gary fellow I believe is pretty bad but then you just lump him in with another guy Kent Hovind and I looked to see if you had a video on him so I could see what you meant but there wasn’t any.

    I’ve seen Kent’s videos and even if you don’t believe in creation etc. to say he is on par with this guy doesn’t add up and to think he doesn’t have a single valid point is beyond realistic.

  • abcwritestartread:

    @VitalVampyr I know if it weren’t for Gary, I’d have allergies, problems with my bloodsugar, headaches, his advice has saved many people’s lives. Oh, President Clinton is taking him seriously obviously, he’s practically vegan now. Too bad it took him heart surgeries to learn. Like I said, when you need help, Gary will be there for you.

  • VitalVampyr:

    @abcwritestartread
    Anecdotes are not a good source of medical advice.

  • HorusAmenRa:

    OMG i almost hit the floor when i googled “quackwatch”.

    I thought “skeptic magazine” was the apex of elitism, i thought wrong.

    I should be thankful that i can “see” myself as being wrong sometimes.

    i double posted 1.5 times. ooops :/

  • larrylopez420:

    gary null saved my life

  • MrWagman11:

    Snake oil salesman. Simple as that.

  • abcwritestartread:

    PS Big Pharma? Really? Suppose you support Monsanto. When you get sick, you might want to call Gary, he will help you. Enjoy!

  • abcwritestartread:

    I know someone who was cured of prostate cancer due to Gary’s advice. What do you say to that?

  • managarm1349:

    OmG i dont give a shit if people do stupid stuff to themselves, we all laugh at them on youtube dont we 🙂
    But assholes like that…human punshing ball comes to mind

  • SPAINole3:

    i love gary null he is as good as gold for the haters f..o..

  • amzuel420:

    @dharmakaya144 When Scottish naval surgeon Sir James Lind claimed that limes would cure scurvy, and a host of other health problems in long haul sailors, they treated him worse than they treat Gary or Kent. I still find it curious how people who’ve been sick all their lives are suddenly healthy after a year or two of juicing and sprouting. I’ve know these people for years. The doctors can’t figure it out either.

  • polhist:

    Gary Null is a liberal who uses nutrition to push his political views and agenda, and to keep his radio show on the air.

  • halinatsip:

    Your chanel is boring. why dont you call Garry and tell him all this, he will be happy to chat with you .

  • halinatsip:

    @TheMonkeyMedicine I agree 100 with you. This video made me sad! How some nasty people can talk about Garry Null like this!

  • halinatsip:

    No Offense to you! Who are you? People like you dont like Garry Null, because hes honest and he seeks good changes and he made a difference in many people lifes. I bet you didn’t write any interesting books. Your wasting your time making videos like this!

  • miketonon:

    No offense, but this video is stupid.

  • polhist:

    @DrSwindles

    I live in the NY area. That’s his biggest show, and he doesn’t take many calls on it.

  • DrSwindles:

    @polhist
    He takes calls all the time. In fact he has a show that is directed at taking calls. It’s called Talk Back, you can find it on Podbean.
    Try harder.

  • polhist:

    @DrSwindles

    I used to listen to him in NY on 91.5. He didn’t take calls often, and I didn’t hear debates.

  • DrSwindles:

    @polhist
    I have heard debates on his show. Also, if you call him and paraphrase this video, he would definitely have something to say. 🙂

  • hinatah89:

    Has anybody noticed that Prof. has chimpanzee-like features?.

  • altonator91:

    @malithe00 (bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-12222612) really because that source tells a different story.

  • malithe00:

    @theclewless, what’s a “meme”? Sounds like an old woman with a sweet of some kind. LOL

  • malithe00:

    @alteredtator91, LOL atheism was created to encourage sexual deviancy like pedophilia which is a natural occurrence from the gay agenda that comes from atheism, you dunce, LOL

  • gyokusai4ever:

    December 220, 2008? How did I miss this?? Absolutely wonderful, best interview ever on “alternative” medicine in general and homeopathy in particular.

  • altonator91:

    @malithe00 What about those priests who are paedophiles and the pope does nothing except relocate, and the prophet mohammad who married a 10 year old girl?? Atheists are not paedophiles.

  • altonator91:

    @7TJBarba In your understanding, you would rather send someone with cancer to the gym then feed them (with raw food) before giving them chemotherapy or radiotherapy. I hope you never get near the medical profession, it would be a catastrophe for public health.

  • lantalizer:

    @7TJBarba Healing cancer with raw food? Are you for real? I’m amazed you can even read and write…

  • Jim1905:

    @YourBooksAreWrong
    Well Luke 12:47 is a moral of the story speech about knowing the right thing to do and not doing it is sinful, it’s wrong. And the Matthew verse is about becoming like Jesus, which is a bad thing? I highly doubt you have better morals then a man who died for change. We can easily take anyone out of context to portray them how we please, but we must look at the whole.

  • 7TJBarba:

    @DSAhmed Please tell me you are joking. You literally believe chemotherapy and drugs do anything for cancer? This is the problem with conventional medicine. They only treat symptoms using toxic chemicals. Instead holistic and integrative medicine focuses on healing the body as a whole using nutrition, detoxification, exercise, etc. Surgery and drugs should always be a LAST RESORT. Brian Clement from Hippocrates heals people of cancer using the raw food diet, infrared saunas, and exercise.

  • malithe00:

    atheism was created by old white pedophiles who worship lucifer. like dickie dawkins. his real first name is sedgewick, he just loves “dick” so much…………
