      If the choice between giving someone life saving antibiotics or disrupting their gut microbiom until they eat some yogurt, that’s an easy choice.

      False equivalency is what you’re doing, btw

        What you just said is harmful misinformation and 100% demonstrates that you didn’t read a damn thing that you’re responding to and acting like you’re an expert on.

          It isn’t, and a random website isn’t a source

          If you have an article from a medical journal, or a study with a sample size of over 1,000 diverse participants I’ll happily read that.

          I could make a website that contradicts everything in the one you linked and host that for free.

          Antibiotics save lives. Vaccines save lives. They are good things.

            So you clearly don’t understand how citations work. You shouldn’t even be engaging in discussions like this until you do.

            If you have an article from a medical journal, or a study with a sample size of over 1,000 diverse participants I’ll happily read that.

            Once again proving that you didn’t read anything you’re arguing about. You need to reassess your behavior.

            Antibiotics save lives. Vaccines save lives. They are good things.

            False dichotomy, further demonstrating your cluelessness.

              I know I’m not going to convince you, and that’s fine, but people like you get other people killed.

              Steve Jobs infamously had a treatable form of cancer, but instead of going to a doctor and doing the scientifically verified treatment he ate fruit that some nut job said would cure him and he died.

              The only medical advice anyone should ever give is go to a doctor. That’s it. Period. The end.

                Trippling down on your pigheaded ignorance to the point where you’re now projecting all your errors and flaws outward.

                Steve Jobs infamously had a treatable form of cancer, but instead of going to a doctor and doing the scientifically verified treatment he ate fruit that some nut job said would cure him and he died.

                Once again, a false dichotomy, demonstrating an inability of critical thinking and ability to differentiate shades of color.

                The only medical advice anyone should ever give is go to a doctor.

                This would apply well to YOU, because YOU clearly have no clue what you’re talking about. Yet you violated your own policy. You should have stayed quiet on this topic which you clearly know nothing about.

                And FYI, that is unfortunately not valid for everyone to abide by: https://forum.humanmicrobiome.info/threads/doctors-are-not-systematically-updated-on-the-latest-literature-what-t.27/

                I know I’m not going to convince you

                Yes, you would need actual knowledge and scientific citations to do that. Something you’re clearly devoid of.

                  My stance is consistent, clear, and concise. Medical decisions should be made by doctors.

                  Just so everyone reading this knows what your stance is, can you make that clear? So far I’ve heard nothing but contrarianism.

                    Projecting again. I was the one who started off by sharing information and you were the one who contradicted it.

                    Just so everyone reading this knows what your stance is, can you make that clear?

                    It is clear to anyone with the ability to click links and read the contents. It’s only unclear to you since you opted not to do that.
