Pauling was way before Davis. Look it up.
Also look up the medical consensus on the "facts" claimed in the article.
Either he's unaware of them, or flat out lies. But he's clearly and verifiably wrong in nearly every paragraph he wrote.
A few evenings with Google scholar will verify that. The whole thing is misleading.
It makes it sound like Pauling died prematurely of cancer. He was 93 ffs.
In fact all the greats in the field Pauling invented died in their 90s.
Now go look at the ages of the people who claimed they're quacks died at. I think you might be a little surprised, that is, if nothing else, advocates of the sort of medicine Pauling espoused - which if, unlike the author of the hack article, is actually based on sound science if you care to research it, all die at a statistically significantly older age than average.
For I assert that when these proponents all die in their 90s while their critics mostly pass on before 60 then it might be worth taking the time to read their work more carefully.
And the interesting thing is if you do do that you'll read how they state how the drug companies deliberately improperly test these things to deliberately get false results.
For example the article mentions C and the cold a few times as if it did nothing. This is not true, if you look it up there is consensus that is limits the number of sick days and makes the symptoms less. That's in what Pauling would call a small dose, in higher doses the symptoms are even more diminished.
Yet the article pretends this isn't true. Why?
In each case the author makes a point about something nor working or being harmful it can be shown there is an other explanation than the one being offered; some of these are egregiously faulty test designs (See the one star reviews on Amazon to explore this further, they're well documented there). Lazy or lying? Which one?
The author implied that C is of no use in cancer. Currently, C has a higher cure rate than Chemo and radiation put together. He's unaware of this or is he lying?
Ignore this article. It's utter rubbish.
