Subscribe to the BlogWhen Naturopaths Try to Silence Public Discourse : The Harry Adelson Chronicles
I have been a big critic of naturopaths offering investigational stem cell procedures. In my opinion, one of the naturopaths who has pushed his practice act to its limits and beyond is Harry Adelson. I was recently sued by Harry for questioning whether his practice act authorized what he’s doing. Now that the suit is…read more
Invitrx Therapeutics: This FDA Report Scares the Snot Out of Me
Let’s face it, when a doctor uses live umbilical cord or amniotic products, he or she adds risk to the treatment equation compared to using the patient’s own tissues.

We were intrigued a few years ago by the claim, so we paid for several of the devices and tested…read more
