So what was happening during that time is that these drugs were so widely used that
that it's what killed our president george washington he had ridden all night long in the cold and he woke up one morning in i think 1799 with a sore throat and had trouble speaking swallowing so we had four of the most prestigious doctors come in they drained within a 12-hour period 40 this is all in historical documents 40 of his blood supply and
and they gave him calomel every hour.
They basically poisoned him to death with mercury.
One of his physicians basically said, wait, we shouldn't be doing this.
And they just admonished that physician.
Interestingly enough, in like 1860s, there was a colonel
an army surgeon general named Dr. Hammond.
And he was court-martialed, Alex, because he decided that so many soldiers were dying from the mercury, from the calomel, that he took it off their formulary.
And even back then,
The institutions were so strong, and that was the best medicine money could buy.
That was the science.
He was court-martialed for it.
It's absolutely outrageous.
So naturopathic medicine was a backlash from that movement.
So there was a doctor named Father Sebastian Knipe, and he cured his own tuberculosis using basically like the Wim Hof method type, you know, like hot and cold compresses, hydrotherapy, sunlight.
And there was a young man named Benedict Lust who a doctor basically told him, go home and die.
I can't cure your TB.
He went back to Germany, was cured, and Father Knipe sent him back to New York and said, go help Americans with this.
So he opened up the first health food store ever.
