Medicine and the health industry are complex and often controversial areas, people hold very strong opinions about what’s best for themselves and rightly so. There is plenty of misinformation out there so you need to be careful and use common sense when self-diagnosing, blindly following random people’s ‘advice’ online can quickly become a fatal mistake.
Much better to trust health professionals, who have undergone rigorous education and training to give you the best and most up-to-date knowledge that medical science has so far uncovered. This poster certainly thinks so, after being shocked by someone suggesting that apple cider vinegar, lemon and olive oil will ‘get rid’ of a tumor growing inside of a gallbladder. Recognizing the danger of such a statement, Redditor PastyDeath decided enough was enough, and decided to set the record straight. PastyDeath’s response to the dangerous and outrageous claim has since gone viral, and is just the kind of straight talking, no nonsense talk that naïve, and probably a little scared, people need to hear when they are having health issues.
