Yeah....Dr Mercola sounds like a real whacko....here are just a few of his beliefs/claims....

Many of Mercola’s articles make unsubstantiated claims and clash with those of leading medical and public health organizations.

For example, he opposes immunization [11] fluoridation. [12], mammography [13], and the routine administration of vitamin K shots to the newborn [14,15];

claims that amalgam fillings are toxic [16];

and makes many unsubstantiated recommendations for dietary supplements.

He has advised against eating many foods that the scientific community regards as healthful, such as bananas, oranges, red potatoes, white potatoes, all milk products, and almost all grains [17].

He has also given silly advice, such as minimizing exposure to electromagnetic fields by avoiding electric razors, microwaving of foods, watches with batteries [18].

...

And...

Mercola has reacted to the COVID-19 pandemic by claiming that many of his products can boost immunity and by attacking the preventive advice given by public health agencies throughout the world.

He has claimed, for example, that masks cause “oxygen deprivation” and that the mainstream recommendation for mask-wearing “has nothing to do with decreasing the spread of the virus, but more to indoctrinate you into submission.” [29]

He is also encouraging “civil disobedience” in areas where mask-wearing is mandated [30].

A real crazy one, that Mercola.

Then, there’s this...

In the summer of 2020, the Center for Science in the Public Interest (CSPI) — a consumer advocacy group partnered with Bill Gates’ agrichemical PR group, the Cornell Alliance for Science,1 and bankrolled by billionaires with ties to Monsanto, the Gates Foundation, the Rockefeller Foundation, the Rockefeller Family Fund and Bloomberg Philanthropies2 — launched a social media campaign to put an end to Mercola.com.

In an August 12, 2020, email, CSPI president Dr. Peter Lurie5 — a former FDA associate commissioner6 — made the spurious claim that I “profit from the COVID-19 pandemic” through “anti-vaccine fearmongering” and reporting of science-based nutrition shown to impact your disease risk.

...It’s ironic that Lurie dismisses offhand peer-reviewed published science demonstrating certain nutrients can boost your immune function and help lower your risk of severe infection — be it from SARS-CoV-2, the seasonal flu or anything else — and touts mask wearing, which has no published scientific evidence to back its universal use, as one of the most important prevention strategies against COVID-19...

...In October 2020, I co-wrote a paper together with William Grant, Ph.D.,11 and Dr. Carol Wagner,12 both of whom are on the GrassrootsHealth vitamin D expert panel, demonstrating the clear link between vitamin D deficiency and severe cases of COVID-19. This paper was published in the peer-reviewed medical journal Nutrients.13...

...The FDA’s warning letter highlights statements in articles on my website that are fully referenced and supported by published science. I am committed to providing truthful information, for free, to anyone that wants it, and I’m all for having a rigorous scientific debate when necessary. CSPI has taken credit for pressuring the FDA to issue this warning letter to suppress free speech. The FDA’s warning letter is simply another attempt by CSPI to smear me with false accusations.

If scientists and researchers are publishing these studies, how can it be a crime to report their findings? At the end of the day, the CSPI’s attacks on this website amounts to an effort to suppress science itself....

As far as the ‘investigation’ goes....I can’t find any current investigations, but...it looks like the feds/fed associated entities are always dogging him.

Hmmmm.....wonder why that would be. 🤔

Could it be that many of the recommendations Mercola has made....not just over the years, but, specifically with Covid....have come to be proven true?

Look, I have no problem with many of the studies and information provided by Mayo Clinic.

But...your guy FRAUDci and Gates have already had their ‘science’ disproven so many times, it’s not even funny.

So, you go right on and keep following gov’t approved/FRAUDci/Gates paid for ‘science’.

Meanwhile....I’ll listen to people like Mercola, and other medical professionals, who have been sounding warning and alarms against BigPharma - and the decades of ill effects of MUCH of THEIR science.

Take care.

Thanks for your long reply. You can try to bolster him up so you want, but, he has a lot of beliefs that are wrong for Covid.
