It sounds like she is quite the media darling herself, kind of like Dr. Oz.
"In March 2005, Dr. Daniel was “media trained” by Joel Roberts, who dubbed her “a natural born entertainer” and a “naughty nutritionist” because of her quirky and naughty sense of humor. She has shared her gifts on the Dr. Oz Show, PBS Healing Quest, NPR’s People’s Pharmacy, ABC’s View from the Bay and Discovery Channel’s Medical Hotseat, and been quoted frequently in the media, including Washington Post, San Francisco Chronicle, London Observer, London Guardian, Toronto Globe and Mail, Vancouver Sun, Bon Appetit, Alternative Medicine, Townsend Letter Mat und Helse (Norway), Men’s Health, E!, Glamour, and other publications.

Sounds like a Suzanne Somers type with a medical degree.
Gracie, there are a lot of us out there who are alive thanks to prescribed medicine, as you and I know. I doubt seriously that most people, faced with a life-threatening illness--due to genetics, the environment (think Love Canal), or other factors--would reject medicine.
And oh... my friend who has the genetic disorder of too much cholesterol... he did not start running until
after he was diagnosed. Had a heart attack that doctors said would have killed him had he not been running. So no crazy disorder caused by over exercising, or whatever was stated by another poster, caused his heart attack.
