Among the fallacies examined in Gardner's book is _chiropractic_. As
he notes, though, lots of chiropractors do useful things that help
patients, but when that discipline originated, it included notions
like curing, say, tuberculosis by addressing subluxations of the
vertebrae.
Sounds like an illustration of the statement "if all you have is a
hammer, everything looks like a nail".
I don't particularly hesitate to interpret
a proposition that "All diseases are
fundamentally caused by ____" as bunk,
without scrutiny. And likewise
"effectively treated by". Say, stem cells.
Diseases are diverse.

I am getting anxious about the wide
application of vaccines to diseases which
don't look like a thing to get vaccinated
against. However, the theory seems to be
to persuade the patient's immune system to
pick a fight against something that it
usually ignores which is a disease component.
I wonder what a vaccine against sugar would do--
to public health?
