If you have even a passing interest in your health, you can’t spend long on social media before the algorithm brings you into contact with the infamous Q-word. Are you in touch with your quantum energy fields? Could you benefit from a consultation with a quantum dietician?
A dismissive snort is fully justified. But all the woo around “quantum therapies” can make it hard to talk about science that ...
The article showcases a pattern of Ambiguity (ARC-0024), as it discusses the potential role of higher-level quantum effects in biological processes while acknowledging that such effects have only been definitively shown at the level of trivial chemistry. This ambiguity leaves room for speculation and could potentially be exploited by those promoting unfounded claims about "benefits of quantum energy." The piece also highlights a pattern of Motte-and-Bailey (ARC-0043), as it presents the possibil...
