Evidence-based medicine and not so much

50% of medicines on planet Earth are prescribed incorrectly. On the same planet, 50% of patients take medicine incorrectly. Not very optimistic, indeed. Add to that alternative medicine, homeopathy, Instagram gurus without medical training who are giving out their advice left and right, and bacteria trained by our "prophylactic" use of antibiotics, and you get the full picture.
The book by doctor and author of the popular medical blog MED GOblin Andriy Semyankiv is a kind of guide to the medical underworld: from how drugs work and what is hidden behind folk medicine, homeopathy and stem cells, to conspiracy theories and the skills of recognizing prescribed fuflomycins.
Why are bacteria on the hospital floor more dangerous than those in your kitchen? How do anti-vaccination myths spread, and why does the queen need a homeopath? Why can antibiotics usually be combined with alcohol (and what does beer, gonorrhea and syphilis have to do with it)? What do oxolin ointment and hematogen actually do and should I tape my body? The author of the book also talks about phytotherapy, inhalations of boiled potatoes, diets, injections, umbilical cord blood and other progressive (actually not very) methods, explaining at the same time how to critically analyze medical information.
