That's the headline Chicago Magazine used -- not my own words. I suspect they're not the author's words either since his profile of Mercola makes it very clear that the man is not representing medical consensus. He even quotes from David Gorski (Orac). I really appreciate the author's ability to give us an idea of what Mercola the man is like without countenancing any of Mercola's nonsense. Well worth the 15-20 minutes it'll take to read through the whole piece.
