How about swimming with a mask on? That sure was a good one.

I like the last one the best- You cannot heal in the same environment where you got sick. So true. Have a wonderful vacation. Relax, be safe, have fun, and do something you’ve never done before!!!

I was disgusted to see the poor teenager was being abused like that. Having to unload the dishwasher twice in 24 hours?! This may have traumatized him for life. I hope someone called the police.

Quick reality-check, folks: the “90 % allergy cure” comes from one tiny, industry-funded German pilot (71 people, no placebo). Bigger, controlled trials of oral or IV vitamin C haven’t found anything similar, and megadose IV C has been linked to kidney-clogging oxalate crystals—the very villains Dr H usually blames on spinach.

The sunscreen meme forgets that commercial SPF has been on drug-store shelves since the 1930s. What’s new is our pattern of exposure: we live indoors, then roast on weekend beach binges—exactly the intermittent blasts tied to a 17-fold rise in melanoma incidence since 1950. Early detection keeps deaths flat, but the idea that “people never needed sunscreen” is sun-burnt nostalgia, not science.

Finally, RFK Jr.’s claim that chronic illness jumped from 3 % in 1960 to 60 % today evaporates on first contact with data: the 1962-63 National Health Interview Survey already showed 44.5 % of Americans had at least one chronic condition. Add almost a decade of extra lifespan and far better diagnostics, and the “20-times explosion” is more math magic than medical meltdown. In short, Dr H’s post serves spicy opinions—just don’t mistake them for the entrée. Pack some evidence-grade SPF before you share! 😎
