As a fitness guru, she does what fitness gurus do: claiming to have unlocked the non-existent secret of weight loss and getting in shape, by offering <a href="https://deansomerset.com/a-logical-argument-against-the-tracy-anderson-method/">standard fitness advice with some nonsense personal twists for marketing purposes</a> (she trains “<i>accessory muscles</i>” (?) instead of your large muscles, offers exercises to pull skin tighter to the muscle and warns women not to lift more than three pounds (or to run) or they’ll become bulky, with lots of vague woo and nonsense fluff and bullshit nutritional advice, and plenty of opportunities to pay her by using products she endorses for kickbacks. Some of the advice she gives will probably give you results, some won’t, and if they do give results it will rarely be for the reasons she suggest. She <a href="https://medium.com/@BornFitness/dear-tracy-anderson-stop-bbba22b2726f#.aegvf5f5c">doesn’t really have the faintest idea</a> when it comes to physiology, fitness or nutrition, <a href="http://www.myomytv.com/how-women-should-train-my-rant/">or she just doesn’t care</a> (there is a good takedown of the nonsense of her recommendations <a href="http://www.katwhitfield.com/2014/01/06/bikini-body-14-days-tracy-anderson/">here</a>, <a href="http://www.katwhitfield.com/2014/01/14/alliteration-makes-it-true-get-a-bombshell-bikini-body-in-14-days-with-tracy-anderson-part-ii/">here</a> and <a href="http://www.katwhitfield.com/2014/01/23/alliteration-makes-it-true-get-a-bombshell-bikini-body-in-14-days-with-tracy-anderson-part-iii/">here</a>). <a href="https://deadstate.org/why-your-guru-is-bullshitfbrefreshforce/">Just like most fitness gurus, really</a>. The first law marketing is to tell people what they need, and then make sure that your product is the only offering that fulfills the need. Of course, since there is no secret to weight loss and exercise, it’s all about packaging. Anderson is good at that – she’s even made it to <a href="https://rationalwiki.org/wiki/Oprah_Winfrey">Oprah</a>.</span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;"><span lang="EN-US"> </span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;"><span lang="EN-US">That the diet advice of the “Tracy Anderson Method”, as highlighted for instance in books like <i>The 30-Day Method</i>, will lead to weight loss is hardly surprising, since it’s basically just starvation: people should <a href="https://www.dailymail.co.uk/health/article-1367879/Gwyneth-Paltrows-personal-trainer-Tracy-Andersons-diet-plan-gave-blackouts.html">restrict their calory intake to 700 calories per day</a>. Any other bells and whistles Anderson adds to make her dietary schemes stand out really don’t matter. Of course, some of her additional claims are downright dangerous. According to Anderson, most foods are dangerous and lead to allergies (“</span><i><span style="mso-ansi-language: #0C00;">I can’t even eat yogurt, nor can I have a tomato or a strawberry! They all cause allergies!</span></i><span lang="EN-US">”). Needless to say, following Anderson’s advice is not how you develop a healthy relationship with food or anything resembling <i>long-term</i> health, but you didn’t think she cares much about that, do you? And then there is of course the <a href="https://tonygentilcore.com/2008/10/no-woman-should-lift-more-than-3-lbs-in-other-news-boston-based-strength-coachtrainer-just-went-postal/">relentless view of what women should look like underlying allher advice</a>.</span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;"><span lang="EN-US"> </span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;"><span lang="EN-US">There is a decent takedown of her particular advice <a href="https://medium.com/@BornFitness/dear-tracy-anderson-stop-bbba22b2726f#.aegvf5f5c">here</a>. As for the nonsense fluff bit, Anderson says things like “<i>[i]n research, the number of muscles in our body keeps going up because [scientists are] starting to look at smooth muscle differently. We need to be connected. Everything needs to be called into action, and our brains – which remain one of the most mysterious objects in the universe to this day – have got to participate</i>.” Yes, <i>scientists</i>. And <i>research</i>. This is prime guru talk.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></span><span style="mso-ansi-language: #0C00;"></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;"><span lang="EN-US"> </span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;"><span lang="EN-US">Anderson is perhaps most famous for being a trainer and fitness advisor for, as well as business partner of, <a href="http://americanloons.blogspot.com/2018/10/2084-gwyneth-paltrow.html">Gwyneth Paltrow</a>, and she has participated in Paltrow’s summit and conferences <a href="https://nypost.com/2017/06/11/inside-gwyneth-paltrows-ridiculous-goop-summit/">warning people</a> for some reason to avoid cross-training and boasting about working with Microsoft to access people’s “<i>neural pathways</i>” so they’d connect with her online presence. She has also become known for <a href="https://www.thedailybeast.com/madonnas-trainer-fights-back">questionable financial practices</a>.</span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;"><span lang="EN-US"> </span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;"><span lang="EN-US">There is a decent resource on Tracy Anderson and her charlatanry <a href="http://willlevy.com/tracy-anderson-a-charlatan-and-a-disgrace-to-the-fitness-profession/">here</a>.</span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;"><span lang="EN-US"> </span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;"><b><span lang="EN-US">Diagnosis: We’ll designate her a loon. The alternative, which is hard not to characterize as “vastly more likely”, would make her a truly horrible person. In any case, Anderson’s got plenty of fans, since her advice works as well as anything other health and wellness guru advice and because those who fail to achieve results tend to shut up, and of course because her marketing is glitzy.</span></b></p> <p><style>@font-face {font-family:"Cambria Math";

And <a href="https://respectfulinsolence.com/2019/04/30/ioncleanse-antivax/">Anderson does have fans</a> – indeed, Anderson currently seems to have established himself as a major-league quack and something of an authority in the altmed and conspiracy theory community. </span><p></p><span style="font-family: inherit;"> </span><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><span lang="EN-US"> </span></span></p><span style="font-family: inherit;"> </span><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><span lang="EN-US">Anderson runs something called Advanced Medical Technologies, which seems to be some kind of franchise system (apparently pseudoeducation promoter and quack authority <a href="http://americanloons.blogspot.com/2019/12/2282-leanna-standish.html">Leanna Standish</a> is affiliated with Anderson’s group) that offers e.g. infusion therapy (IV), <a href="https://quackwatch.org/related/hbot/hm01/">hyperbaric oxygen therapy</a> (HBOT), and <a href="https://rationalwiki.org/wiki/Sauna#Infrared_sauna">infrared sauna</a> – <a href="https://sciencebasedmedicine.org/bad-documentary-review-cancer-can-be-killed/">mild hyperthermia</a> (IRMHT). According to Anderson, mild hyperthermia can be used for “<i>anti-infective, cancer, toxicity and many others</i>” – in a sense it can be <i>used </i>for that, but it’s not going to achieve anything. He also offers <a href="https://quackwatch.org/related/chelation/">chelation therapy</a> and “<a href="https://sciencebasedmedicine.org/top-ten-signs-your-detox-may-be-a-scam/"><i>detox services</i></a>”. None of his offered regimes <a href="https://quackwatch.org/chelation/">are even remotely effective</a> for the kinds of things <a href="https://quackwatch.org/related/hbot/">quacks tend to use them for</a>, and several of them <a href="https://quackwatch.org/related/harmquack/">are genuinely dangerous</a>. In his promotional materials <a href="https://sciencebasedmedicine.org/be-careful-what-you-wish-for/">Anderson emphasizes that</a> he e.g. uses “<i>infusions that have been designed and formulated from the collective experience of over three decades from the minds of Dr. Anderson and the other physicians at AMT</i>,” and that they are “<i>customized and tailored</i>” to you. <i>Evidence for safety and efficacy</i> seems to be less of an issue. The FDA has already <a href="https://sciencebasedmedicine.org/the-ftc-cracks-down-on-the-company-selling-iv-bars-for-false-advertising-claims/">cracked down on some providers of the kind of intravenous “<i>micronutrient therapy</i>”</a> Anderson offers, though it seems that Anderson himself has thus far escaped their attention; chelation therapy, meanwhile, can and <a href="https://sciencebasedmedicine.org/the-price-of-anti-vaccine-fanaticism-a-story-in-three-parts/">demonstrably does</a> kill, and is equally demonstrably useless – pace the claims of quacks – against anything but acute metal poisoning, which you are not suffering from. Detoxification therapies, against mostly unnamed “toxins”,<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><a href="https://sciencebasedmedicine.org/fashionable-toxins/">are a scam</a> that is <a href="https://sciencebasedmedicine.org/detox-ritual-purification/">interestingly reminiscent of religious purification rituals</a> and far less reminicent of medicine. <a href="https://quackwatch.org/related/cancer/oxygen/">Intravenous ozone</a>, <a href="https://quackwatch.org/related/pauling/">high dose vitamin C</a>, and the wide range of other infusions Anderson offers are equally medically worthless. </span></span></p><span style="font-family: inherit;"> </span><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><span lang="EN-US"> </span></span></p><span style="font-family: inherit;"> </span><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><span lang="EN-US">Anderson might, however, be most famous for championing <a href="https://respectfulinsolence.com/2017/04/12/death-by-intravenous-turmeric-naturopaths-circle-the-wagon/">IV curcumin as a treatment</a>, something that has <a href="https://respectfulinsolence.com/2017/04/11/death-by-intravenous-turmeric-why-licensed-naturopaths-are-no-safer-than-any-other-naturopath/">demonstrably led to deaths</a>. When a young woman in California died from the treatment Anderson advocates, the <a href="https://sciencebasedmedicine.org/naturopathy-and-dubious-compounding-pharmacies-a-deadly-combination/">naturopaths circled the wagons</a> and Anderson himself <a href="https://sciencebasedmedicine.org/naturopathy-and-dubious-compounding-pharmacies-a-deadly-combination/">issued a tellingly clueless defense</a>, <a href="https://respectfulinsolence.com/2017/04/12/death-by-intravenous-turmeric-naturopaths-circle-the-wagon/">mostly focusing on</a> the fact that </span><span style="mso-ansi-language: #0C00;">turmeric and curcumin</span><span lang="EN-US"> are different things, something that the press initially got it mixed up and which was … really, really not the problem here. (The woman died from intravenous curcumin, which is what Anderson promotes.) Anderson and <a href="https://respectfulinsolence.com/2018/02/02/more-naturopathic-propaganda-claiming-lifestyle-interventions-as-their-own/">the quack cabal</a> the American Association of Naturopathic Physicians (AANP), of which Anderson is a prominent member, also emphasized the importance of using <a href="https://sciencebasedmedicine.org/legislative-alchemy-i-naturopath/">a licensed naturopath</a>; Kim Kelly, <a href="https://respectfulinsolence.com/2017/08/14/the-death-of-jade-erick-from-intravenous-curcumin-mystery-solved/">the naturopath who administered the curcumin</a>, was licensed in California, <a href="https://respectfulinsolence.com/2017/04/11/death-by-intravenous-turmeric-why-licensed-naturopaths-are-no-safer-than-any-other-naturopath/">as if that matters</a>, but it’s easy to see why naturopathic organizations might want to give an impression that she wasn’t.</span></span></p><span style="font-family: inherit;"> </span><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><span lang="EN-US"> </span></span></p><span style="font-family: inherit;"> </span><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><span lang="EN-US">Anderson is also a zealous and tireless campaigner against FDA attempts to rein in or create any sort of accountability system for compounding pharmacies of the kind that produced the curcumin that resulted in the aforementioned death. In 2019, for instance, Anderson testified before the Pharmacy Compounding Advisory Committee (a panel of experts advising the FDA) in support of sodium dichloroacetate, stating that his group had administered over 10,000 doses orally and IV as an adjunct treatment for cancer. Which is <a href="https://www.raps.org/news-and-articles/news-articles/2019/9/fda-proposes-adding-five-new-substances-to-pharmac">not evidence for the safety and efficacy of sodium dichloroacetate</a> but <a href="https://sciencebasedmedicine.org/new-fda-rule-cracks-down-on-compounded-drug-ingredients-alarming-cam-practitioners/">should serve as a stark warning</a> to anyone considering approaching Anderson’s group.

Now, it is hardly very surprising that quacks and woomeisters have been using the pandemic to push their particular brands of woo and quackery hard, and the AANP is no exception. <a href="https://sciencebasedmedicine.org/naturopaths-exploit-covid-19-with-unproven-treatments-and-self-promotion/">According to at least one of their press releases</a>, the group urges physicians and hospitals <a href="https://www.factcheck.org/2020/02/fake-coronavirus-cures-part-3-vitamin-c-isnt-a-shield/">to utilize IV Vitamin C</a> as “<i>an effective and affordable intervention</i>” (<a href="https://eu.usatoday.com/story/news/factcheck/2020/03/24/coronavirus-fact-check-could-vitamin-c-cure-covid-19/2904303001/">it isn’t</a>) for “<i>high risk and hospitalized patients</i>”, while also offering to be “<i>a resource to physicians and organizations looking for clinical guidance in the proper use of this intervention</i>”. Purely coincidentally, IV Vitamin C has been one of Anderson’s long-time sources of income; indeed, Anderson has “<i>been using IVC safely and effectively … for over 20 years</i>” and his review of the evidence “<i>shows that the use of IVC in hospitalized COVID-19 patients has a high probability of reducing hospital stay, duration and improving outcomes.</i>” We are not particularly surprised this was the outcome of Anderson’s own review;

Anderson had actively petitioned the shool board (“<i>[t]he majority of parents do not wish to have there [sic] children taught that the gay lifestyle is a normal acceptable alternative</i>”) and managed to get the school board to adopt a “No Homo Promo” directive pronouncing that within the health curriculum, “<i>homosexuality not be taught/addressed as a normal, valid lifestyle</i>.” Of course, people like Anderson and the Minnesota Family Council refused to assume responsibility for their actions, instead trying to put the blame on the people who actually tried to help while ramping up the insane anti-gay rhetoric. Tom Prichard, head of the MFC, for instance, said </span><span style="mso-ansi-language: #0C00;">that his group would continue to fight anti-bullying efforts in the Anoka-Hennepin schools, </span><span lang="EN-US">and</span><span style="mso-ansi-language: #0C00;"> that the suicides were not the product of bull</span><span lang="EN-US">y</span><span style="mso-ansi-language: #0C00;">ing but rather</span><span lang="EN-US"> (imaginary)</span><span style="mso-ansi-language: #0C00;"> “<i>homosexual indoctrination</i>”</span><span lang="EN-US"> and the students who died had adopted an </span><span style="mso-ansi-language: #0C00;">“<i>unhealthy lifestyle</i>”</span><span lang="EN-US">. Anderson, meanwhile, <a href="https://www.rightwingwatch.org/post/minnesota-religious-right-activist-blames-lgbt-rights-advocates-for-anti-gay-bullying/">accused</a> safe-school groups such as GLSEN of trying to use the student suicides “<i>as a Trojan horse</i>” to instill “<i>pro-gay training</i>” in schools. At least the evil rot Anderson and her ilk fostered in the district <a href="https://www.rollingstone.com/culture/culture-news/one-towns-war-on-gay-teens-232572/">didn’t escape attention</a>. When the school district finally adopted new guidelines, <a href="https://www.rightwingwatch.org/post/anti-gay-activists-warn-homosexual-references-in-school-will-bring-many-of-the-kids-into-the-gay-lifestyle/">Anderson called</a> the </span><span style="mso-ansi-language: #0C00;">anti-bullying efforts “<i>child abuse</i>”</span><span lang="EN-US"> and</span><span style="mso-ansi-language: #0C00;"> said that </span><span lang="EN-US">the</span><span style="mso-ansi-language: #0C00;"> new guidelines regarding sexual orientation </span><span lang="EN-US">would</span><span style="mso-ansi-language: #0C00;"> turn kids gay</span><span lang="EN-US">.</span></span></p><span style="font-family: inherit;"> </span><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><span lang="EN-US"> </span></span></p><span style="font-family: inherit;"> </span><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><span lang="EN-US">When Anderson’s group Parents Action League was belatedly and <a href="https://www.splcenter.org/fighting-hate/intelligence-report/2015/active-anti-lgbt-groups">obviously correctly labeled a hate group by the SPLC</a>, Anderson <a href="https://www.rightwingwatch.org/post/linda-harvey-and-barb-anderson-decry-school-districts-decision-to-try-to-stop-anti-gay-bullying/">complained that</a> the SPLC is “<i>totally opposed to Judeo-Christian values [for Anderson: primarily </i>hate<i>], they really hate Christians and hate evangelicals</i>,” and that it should the SPLC “<i>that should be considered a hate group</i>.” (She later <a href="https://www.rightwingwatch.org/post/bachmann-and-gingrich-will-address-anti-gay-organization-thats-proud-to-be-a-hate-group/">characterized the designation as</a> “<i>a badge of honor</i>”).</span></span></p><span style="font-family: inherit;"> </span><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><span lang="EN-US"> </span></span></p><span style="font-family: inherit;"> </span><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><b><span lang="EN-US">Diagnosis: Hateful monster.
