Los Angeles Holistic Medicine Clinic Says Coconut Oil Cures Cancer
Holistic Henryâs Holistic Clinic is once again in the midst of controversy. Holistic Henryâs is run by Henry Rackman, who initially made waves in the medical community 2 years ago when he opened Henryâs House of Medicine, a pain clinic in Los Angeles that specialized in the dispensing of narcotic pain killers. Â The pain clinic was almost immediately raided by the DEA, and shut down for a laundry list of infractions.Immediately upon Henryâs House of Medicine being shut down, Holistic Henryâs was opened. Rackman was convicted of dispensing pharmaceuticals without a license, but was given a suspended sentence.Holistic Henryâs has recently been targeted by the media for taking advantage of chronically ill patients that are dying of cancer. It is estimated that Holistic Henryâs currently has at least 40 chronically ill patients. It has been confirmed that at least 9 of the clinics patients have passed away this month.Treatments prescribed by Holistic Henryâs include frequent yoga, heavy applications of coconut oil, and âeating rightâ.Amanda Rotberg, the daughter of one of the recently deceased patients, has spoken out against the clinic and said her father was taken advantage of. She said he had a hard time digesting the news from his doctor that even with continued treatment, he would most likely only haveÂ 2 years alive. She says that her father was not in a clear state of mind and, was desperately searching for something that would cure his cancer.âMyÂ father thought he found what he was looking for at Holistic Henryâs, however what he actually found was a bunch of con-artists that convinced himÂ rubbing excessive amounts of coconut oil on his tummy every night would cure his stomach cancer,â said Rotberg. âItâs sickening what theyâre claiming, and they have no evidence to back it up whatsoever.ââThe worst part of the whole thing, is that insurance does not cover any treatment received at places like Holistic Henryâs, so my father paid out over $150,000 to the clinic. Exactly what is the overhead on coconut oil and yoga? Iâll tell you, itâs damn near nothing!âA Holistic HenryâsÂ representative was asked whatÂ services they offer to a patient suffering from cancer, and they said that it varies, but they have a basis of treatments that all patients should receive.âWe offer several modern treatments, but honestly, aside from heavy applications of coconut oil and frequent yoga, the best treatment for someone dying from cancer is to just be a good person.â
