  1. That chiropractic spinal subluxation is safe and effective.

    In reality it is a good way to get vertebral artery dissection or cerebral infarction, both of which will kill you or leave you disabled.

    Chiropractors are not medically trained, they aren’t doctors even though they have a non accredited “qualification” which they refer to themselves incorrectly as doctors.

    Don’t go to a chiropractor, go to a physiotherapist.

  2. Cracking your knuckles will not give you arthritis.

    “Calories in, calories out” (in regards to weight) is a grossly reductive misunderstanding of thermodynamics and human biology.

    People are overwhelmingly more likely to get trafficked by someone they know (family member) than some international syndicate of supercriminals.

    Snake Oil actually worked (it was kind of like an 1800s version of Icy Hot).
