    Yeah, there’s a big difference between “this herb has some naturally occurring anti-inflammatory compounds” and “this berry is a cure for cancer and lupus and the common cold.”

    Regarding yoga, stretching and bodyweight exercises are definitely a good part of fitness, but the mystical side of it is complete horseshit.

      I remember seeing a doTERRA ad some hon had put up at a Mexican restaurant. In English it said normal stuff about how aromatherapy helps with mood, maybe a vaguely defined “energy levels” but no legally defined health claims. En español it was literally claiming that the doTERRA oils could cure cancer!
