Great! Until he does a double-blind pre-registered randomized study (with a control group) and it is published in a serious peer review journal (and reproduced a few times by independent research groups), it should be treated like snake oil.

The harm is indirect, because they are mixing real medicine wit pseudoscience. There are a lot of miracle "cures" that appear every month. Many of them steal the patients or the family money, other steal just time and hope. And in some cases, people following the alternative cures avoid following the standard treatment that is better ot at leas reduces the suffering.
