Magical instagram therapies really strike a nerve in me.   
This is the 2nd post that claims that it’s truly magical and can cure acne and detoxify liver. A few days earlier I saw another post where a magical oil can cure both Rheumatoid Arthritis and Osteoarthritis. 

What worries me more are the comments on such posts which I am sure are highly biased or paid comments because none of these treatments will ever work. 

I am a doctor myself and all these claims are just getting absurd and out of hand. What worries me more is that people even buy this kind of stuff with hopes that this thing can actually cure them. 

I will just say a few things here which I am sure that people will understand before believing such nonsense. 

First of all, your liver detoxifies your entire body. An organ which serves this purpose. Do you think it can’t detoxify itself? And it needs some special drink that will get the job done? 

Secondly, Acne is caused by various factors like closed comedones (pores in the skin in easy to understand language), bacteria, high sebum, high androgens. It’s multifactorial.   
One sip of this magical drink and it treats your acne. Really?!?! 

Don’t get me started on that oil one.   
Osteoarthritis (wear and tear of joints especially weight bearing ones like knees, hips, lower back due to either old age or more body weight)   
Rheumatoid Arthritis (your own immune system will destroy your joints)   
Notice how these 2 diseases are completely different?   
How can one magical oil solve both of these problems. 

Just think logically and you will yourself realise all these products are nothing but scams and a complete waste of money. 

If you still think I am here to support holistic medicine and I make money out of pharmacies.  
Do you own research. Look up clinical trials with such items. Do these people who sell this stuff. Do they have any evidence that backs up their claims?   
If so. Do let me know as well. 

All of this is nonsense and it angers me every single day! 

And then when patients come to us in a terrible state and when we fail to treat. Suddenly Doctor is arrogant, Doctor malpractices, Doctor this Doctor that. 

Seriously getting out of hand.
