A take on the general ignorance of the average American consumer, and a demonstration of how easily it can be taken advantage of.

I see your point.

Possibly silly question here from a non-Facebook user:

Could somebody have hacked her account?

The comments are pretty funny.

...but many woos bought into it as if it were serious, and passed it on with serious concern.

A few woos have enough of a sense of humor about themselves (rare, I know) to have seen the DHMO thing as funny, and spread it around as a joke. Since Nancy's Facebook page also has this:



...she's probably in the latter category.

But a willingness to joke a bit aside, I'm pretty sure the rest of her Facebook page and her web site is meant seriously, the usual "natural = good, artificial = bad" woo, with the typical anecdote-based, personal-experience-based, cherry-picking of exaggerated interpretation of isolated studies-based recommendations that this food and that food amazingly accomplish this and that wonderful health goal.

Also a little frightening...

It's hard to tell the difference, however.
