Sunday House Call, #721, December 15, 2019: Legitimizing “Unproven and magic-based healthcare practices”. Even med schools are not immune.

In this week’s editorial, the creeping legitimization of pseudoscience from institutions that should know better is having a deleterious impact on public health.

Topics today include:

• The keto diet
• A woman told by friends not to use her CPAP device to treat her sleep apnea. Her friends should not practice medicine without a license.
• Cannabis use, drug interactions and management of terminal cancer pain.
