Institute for Natural Healing

__NOTOC__
The Institute for Natural Healing (INH) is a pseudoscientific alternative medicine, cholesterol denialist, and cancer woo organization in the United States.
According to the INH, "We are fed up with the lies and stupidity of the medical establishment and are committed to exposing these falsehoods to the public." They claim to have uncovered thousands of natural alternative medicine treatments that can improve health without drugs or medical intervention.About Us. The Institute for Natural Healing.
The advisory board of the INH consists of various "natural health" educators such as chiropractic college Professor James Meschino, GP Malcolm Kendrick, and Doctor of Naturopathy Holly Lucille.Meet the INH Medical Advisory Board. The Executive Director and owner of the Institute for Natural Healing and New Summit Nutritionals is Angela Salerno; she has no medical training and has been criticized for promoting unproven cancer cures.Better Than Chemo, or a Modern Snake Oil Sale?.

The INH promotes Big Pharma conspiracy theories. They claim that "Natural treatments—even cures—for cancer are all around us. They're readily available to those who know about them. But they're actively hidden by Big Pharma, the FDA, and mainstream medicine."What Natural Cancer Cures Are “They” Keeping From You? They sell various pseudoscientific books such as 7 Cancer Cure Cover-Ups.Products. The Institute for Natural Healing. 
Their website has articles supportive of cholesterol and statin denialism.Don’t Fall for the Statin Hoax. The Institute for Natural Healing.The Great Statin Rethink. The Institute for Natural Healing.‘Bad’ Cholesterol Does Not Cause Heart Disease They have commented that "higher cholesterol levels may actually help you live longer." They recommend their readers to avoid taking blood pressure medication.High Blood Pressure? Beware of This Drug. The Institute for Natural Healing. One bizarre article talks about how high blood pressure is apparently good for health. They state that "If you’re on blood pressure meds and you’ve had a stroke, show your doctor this article. You’ll want to make sure that your hypertension is not being overcorrected. You may need to reduce your dosage or even stop taking blood pressure drugs."High Blood Pressure Could Save Your Life.

===Cancer Survival System===
The INH sells an unproven cure known as the Cancer Survival System for $149. It claims to be "the only program of its kind".Cancer Survival System. The Institute for Natural Healing. It promises a "natural compound" to destroy cancer stem cells, but never identifies what this compound is made from.

===The Heart Disease Scam===
The INH also sells The Heart Disease Scam, a 30-page report for $24.95.The Heart Disease Scam They use the word "scam" to refer to research from modern cardiology which they consider to be flawed. They assert that coronary angioplasty and stent insertion, bypass surgery and statins are all ineffective to treat atherosclerosis or cardiovascular diseases and are "money making scams".Urgent Health Alert... The Heart Disease Scam That May Cost You Your Life Instead, they claim that a "specific food group" (not named), eight antioxidant foods (not named), 10 vitamins (not named) and specific exercises (not named) are the real cure but this evidence is being supressed by the medical community. This is tinfoil hat quackery.
===Supplements===
They sell dubious vitamin and mineral supplements, at New Summit Nutritionals. A Quack Miranda Warning was added at the bottom of their website which claims "these statements have not been evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration. These products are not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease." This is contradicted by the description of the supplements they are selling; for example, they advertise their product Proluxan as offering "real prostate relief".Proluxan. New Summit Nutritionals. They also advertise their product VitaCardio as giving a "stronger more powerful heart" to improve blood pressure, cholesterol, inflammation, blood vessels, and circulation.Breakthrough science reveals that this 3,000 year old secret could be the key to maintaining… PERFECT BLOOD PRESSURE.
