“The wellness movement to me not only is unjust in terms of expenditures, it's unjust in that its focus is on the better off. It's not wellness for all; it's wellness for the privileged. That, to me, is the worst moral offense of the wellness movement today.”

What Art Caplan, PhD has said

  • “There are many people who are being appointed [by the Trump administration] who have connections to alternative medicine and fringe remedies in terms of owning companies or promoting products which raise a lot of red flags. Even if they divested from them to take the appointment, the connection to that company would be disqualifying. ... It's not enough to say 'I don't sell it any more;' you'd say that you can't serve because you were promoting non-tested products.”
