Gaia Health is a website promoting alternative medicine, conspiracy theories, and all the usual CAM woo. It's consistently anti-evidence-based medicine, anti-vaccine[1] anti-chemical,[2] and pro-anecdote (obviously).[3] They really don't like the "pseudoskeptics" over at ScienceBlogs.[3]

Gaia Health is a fan of Big Pharma conspiracy theories, and bashes pharmaceutical companies and the government's oppressive regulation. In one article, Gaia Health expressed outrage at the unfair suppression of Hyland's Homeopathic Teething Tablets (which were found to have unsafe levels of belladonna), and called the FDA a servant of Big Pharma, and the FDA's actions an attack on health freedom.[4] Of course, the FDA also recalls pharmaceuticals, which doesn't really fit with this particular conspiracy theory. But never let facts get in the way of propaganda.

They have a humor section supposedly full of funny[5] anti-medicine and anti-chemical articles and videos.[6]
