About All Of Those Holistic Doctors Being Murdered

Breaking News – While conspiracy folks continue to add people to the list of murdered holistic doctors, including the CDC epidemiologist, keep in mind that many of them aren’t holistic doctors, most weren’t murdered, and of those that were murdered, it was typically by someone they knew.

Did you know that someone is going around the country and murdering holistic doctors?

The Health Nut even has an Holistic Doctor Death Series featuring all of the cases.

She is up to over “80 deaths” in her series. In fact, she has just reported on the “86th doctor found dead in our holistic doctor death series.”

Not that 80 people have died though…

Are Holistic Doctors Being Murdered?

Is anything about her story true?

Again, right off the bat, you notice that she has far fewer than 86 who have died on her list.

That’s because 29 or 30 of those on her original list were part of a group attending a German homeopathy conference who were ‘poisoned’ by Aquarust, an hallucinogenic drug that is used recreationally, but it was never determined if they took too much intentionally or were actually poisoned. Either way, these 29 homeopaths weren’t seriously harmed and definitely weren’t murdered.

Dr. Ron Schwartz was indeed murdered, but even the Health Nut states that “We don’t know if he was holistic.” It seems like he is on the list because “he ran an organic lawn service on the side.”

Dr. Lisa Riley was also murdered, and again, the Health Nut admits that “Besides being an Osteopath, I have no idea if she had any holistic or “alternative” training or beliefs.” She is still on the Holistic Doctor Death Series though.

So were any of the other holistic doctors murdered?

Some were, but more often than not, the person who did it was found and can’t be linked to any grand conspiracy. Many others committed suicide or suffered accidents. And again, some weren’t even holistic doctors!

What about her “reporting?”

What should you make of the fact that many family members report that these deaths are sudden, unexpected, and surreal, leaving everyone shocked? She seems to take these quotes from the initial Facebook announcements and posts about the persons death. What do you expect people to say, that they saw it coming for years?

That so many of the first deaths were from Florida gives you a good idea of how the conspiracy got started though (frequency illusion).

1. Jeff Bradstreet, MD – the only true outspoken anti-vaccine doctor on this list, Dr. Bradstreet, originally from Florida, also claimed that vaccines cause autism and “claimed he could effectively cure kids of their autism, cancer and other maladies simply by injecting them with protein shots.” The day before his death, his office had been raided by authorities looking into his GcMAF cure, as had a clinic he had links to oversees where 5 patients died. His death was ruled a suicide. At least one family member still believes that he was murdered, after reviewing the evidence with a ‘private forensic scientist.’
2. Baron Holt, DC – only 33, the North Carolina chiropractor who had been struggling with non-life threatening health issues, died on a trip to Florida to “seek correction for his own spine”
3. Bruce Hedendal, DC – the Florida chiropractor, age 67, was found dead in his car, reportedly of natural causes
4. Theresa Sievers, MD – with formal training in integrative and functional medicine, the Florida doctor was certified in transcutaneous acupuncture and had become interested in energy healing – she was murdered by two men, one of whom was a boyhood friend of Mark Sievers, the doctor’s husband, who had five insurance policies totaling more than $4 million on his wife, with whom he had lived in an open marriage.

17. Mark Ernsting, PhD – a biomedical engineer (not holistic, he was working on a nanoparticle based delivery system to deliver drugs to tumors) who worked at the Ontario Institute for Cancer Research, he was stabbed to death in what has been described as “a random attack, a crime of opportunity” and for which the attacker is being charged
18. John Marshall, MD – a surgeon at the Spokane VA hospital (not an holistic doctor), his body was found in the Spokane River and his death was ruled an accident, although a private investigator suspects foul play.

38. Jameth Sheridan, ND – there may be a conspiracy around the death of Jameth Sheridan (his real name is reportedly James Guenthur Dina), but not about how he died, well not that he was murdered as part of a holistic doctor conspiracy. Turns out the supplement company he founded never told anyone that he died and continued to sell and market his products. Anyway, he had apparently stepped down from the company to go “off the grid” to heal his body of kidney cancer naturally, but he had to go to the hospital because he eventually developed a wound/serious blood infection and went into septic shock. It was supposedly the complications of being treated in an ICU that killed him. The Health Ranger, no relation to the Health Nut, reports that he died because his products contain heavy metals that can cause cancer.
39. Trevor Tice – did the founder of CorePower Yoga die under suspicious circumstances? While he was hooked on yoga, he also “had a history of chronic alcohol abuse and opiate abuse” and died after several drunken falls in his home, where there was no evidence of foul play.

Robert Ashton, MD – a cardiothoracic surgeon, he died after he jumped off the George Washington Bridge and is talked about by the Health Nut in her series of Holistic Doctor Murders because Dr. Ashton and Dr. Jennifer Ashton, a medical reporter for ABC News, had recently divorced. And… the previous medical reporter for ABC, Dr. Jamie Zimmerman, MD, who focused on meditation medicine, drowned while on vacation in Hawaii. See the connection???
43. Juan Sanchez Gonzalez, ND – although the Health Nut led with the idea of how many times Dr. Gonzalez talked about Big Pharma wanting him to get “hit by a bus,” he was murdered by the husband of a woman who had died after Dr. Gonzalez had “guaranteed he could cure the man’s wife of cancer.”
44. Robert Mark Buller, MD – a bioterrorism expert and professor at St. Louis University (definitely not a holistic doctor!), he worked on poxviruses and died after he was hit by a car while riding his bike.
45. Psalm Isadora – a tantric healer who says that her practices helped her overcome anxiety, depression, and a previous suicide attempt – tragically, she killed herself

52. Ron Schmid, ND – a naturopathic physician, he almost caused his own heart to fail by taking high doses of cod liver oil each day, a product that his own company sold! He died in his sleep at the age of 71, still suffering from the effects of the cod live oil he had taken each day.
53. Glen Scarpelli, DC – the chiropractor and his wife jumped from the roof of his clinic in NYC. They had suicide notes in their pockets.
54. Andrew Hall Cutler, Ph.D. – Andy Cutler, a chemical engineer, he self-diagnosed himself as being poisoned with mercury from his tooth fillings and later pushed the idea that mercury poisoning causes autism. He even developed his own chelation protocols. He died of a heart attack in his 60s. He left behind a legacy of parents believing their autistic kids have been damaged by mercury poisoning and some suffering from unnecessary chelation treatments.
55. Ann Boroch – a naturopath, certified clinical hypnotherapist, and Certified Nutritional Consultant, she claimed to have “healed herself of multiple sclerosis,” was an expert on the “silent epidemic” of candida infections, and warned that “vaccines have live and dead strains of viruses, bacteria, mercury, formaldehyde, aluminum, and other substances that can injure your child now and later bring about retroviruses.” Family members had reported that she “passed suddenly of natural causes.” She didn’t. Tami Ann Boroch killed herself in her garage.

59. Achutha Reddy, MD – a holistic psychiatrist, Dr. Reddy died after he was stabbed 165 times in the alley behind his office by one of his “ongoing” patients.
60. Annie Fairbanks – a Master CHEK Practitioner and a doctor of holistic nutrition, Annie Fairbanks was recently murdered, but instead of the murder-suicide that the police are reporting, the Health Nut leads simply leads her story saying that a “Prominent Holistic Doctor and entire family found shot dead in AZ home.” And like other stories like this, the Health Nut is quick to report that some doubted the claim, wondering how they could have completed their investigation so quickly…
61. Michael Crespo, MD – the cancer researcher (not holistic) was found unconscious and unresponsive in the eighth-floor restroom of NewYork-Presbyterian/Weill Cornell Medical Center and died of an apparent drug overdose.
62. James Winer, DC – a chiropractor who ran a holistic wellness clinic, he died of a heart attack while visiting Florida.
63. Dean Lorich, MD – a celebrity orthopedic surgeon (not holistic) who had operated on Bono, he killed himself in his home (a knife was found in his chest). He had recently lost privileges at the hospital where he worked and had been sued by an NFL player for “ending his career.”

67. Norman Valdes Cotten Jr., DC – a chiropractor in Michigan, he was found dead in a burning car in the parking lot of an elementary school.

Does that put an end to the idea that someone is killing holistic doctors?

Probably not. Those who believe in conspiracy theories will still likely believe that these accidents and suicides were staged.

When writing about chiropractors in car accidents, the Health Nut states that “It could be a big coincidence, but I’ll just report the facts.”

What about the murders that have already been solved? Those can’t be linked to a conspiracy, can they?

What about the doctors who aren’t even holistic doctors?

When their children, grandchildren, or other family members look on the Internet to get more research about a deceased love one, are they going to have to find conspiracy theories about Big Pharma?

The latest person on her “Unintended Holistic Doctor Death Series?”

Dr. Timothy Cunningham, the CDC epidemiologist who had disappeared for several weeks and was later found dead in the Chattahoochee River, near his home. Although there are many unanswered questions about his death, there is no evidence that he was murdered and he wasn’t a holistic doctor.

What To Know About the Holistic Doctor Murder Conspiracy Theory

The holistic doctor murder conspiracy was thoroughly debunked when it first started, back in 2015.

It is obvious now that it should have ended then, but understanding that it continues will hopefully help folks question (or even better, dismiss outright), anything else they see on sites that continue to push the idea of a holistic doctor murder conspiracy.
