64. He is just way too out there.
Most - though not all - of his claims are based on shoddy research, and/or uses a closed-knit circular self-referencing group of so-called "experts" - they proceed to all quote each other on their "research". He takes some bits of "real research", attaches it to obscure bits of information (usually taken out of context) and creates some whole new "theory".

I don't many specifics off the top of my head - though "anti-vaccination" comes readily to mind, along with this "diet" cures and other pseudo-scientific and pseudo-medical claims. Or, for instance this coconut oil thing - he claims it LOWERS cholesterol - which it patently does NOT do.

The biggest clue for me is, he's always trying to SELL you something based on his alarmist pronouncements.


Oh - and before anyone asks, I think the Weston Price Foundation (along with Sally Fallon) is a complete and total whacksite - bordering on outright FRAUD.
