Call it a cosmic coincidence or maybe it was just merely synergism; but immediately after listening to the podcasts on Faith Healers and supplements, AOL posted an article on Faith Based Diets. They listed 8 diets, one of which was called the "Makers Diet". founded by Jordan Rubin. mmm, is this the same guy whose company (Garden of Life INC.) recently settled with the Federal Trade Commission for making unsubstantiated claims that his supplements cure everything from colds to cancer? I went to his site and he is making the exact same claims for this diet ("God's original eating plan"), as he did for his supplement "Primal Defense". What disturbs me the most is that his book has become a "best seller", along with AOL perpetuating this diet myth to unsuspecting subscribers. Would it be a logical fallacy (ad hominem) to call him a lying, thieving con man? Where do I begin to construct a logical argument debunking what I believe to be a hoax. I have to go now, I have a craving for honey covered locust.
PS I do not know how to insert hyperlinks to these sites i mentioned, if someone could enlighten me, it would be most appreciated.
