I see your point, but the difference is that, generally speaking, people who watch Dan the Man have already decided to think for themselves, and understand that Dan is just sharing his own experiences. They aren't as likely to put blind faith into Dan like people do MDs. The people still locked into the allopathic mindset haven't even realized that there is a whole 'nother world out there. They're still in the mindset of needing permission to get off meds, and asking permission to change their diet or water. Dan the Man fans are already thinking for themselves so they aren't likely to consider him an authority; they just like him because he's cool, charming and inspiring.

No disrespect intended, but I never trust any health practitioner completely, whether on the internet or not. Look at how many different practitioners all disagree. I don't follow any one of them completely. Each one might have a piece of the puzzle but I have yet to meet one that has all the pieces. And most have a few ideas that I would consider inappropriate for me personally, or, in many cases, even inaccurate. That's why I cross reference everything.

Of that I have no doubt!
