The health robbers
Quackery
"Those who embrace irrational creeds fervently, who throw themselves headlong into self-help regimens, furnish a fertile recruiting ground for unscientific health wares. Quacks are agile. They sense quickly and rush in to exploit people's real concerns. Thus, for many reasons, quackery may be expected to continue, to expand, and to remain a challenge to scientific health care."
