Trump surgeon general pick praised unproven psychedelic therapy, said mushrooms helped her find love

I looked at her Wikipedia page for all of ~15 seconds and I found this gem.

Means has spoken in support of raw milk, stating, "When it comes to a question like raw milk, I want to be free to form a relationship with a local farmer, understand his integrity, look him in the eyes, pet his cow, and then decide if I feel safe to drink the milk from his farm."

When paired with talk therapy, it has been studied as a treatment for psychiatric conditions and alcoholism, but very little research has been done in healthy people.
Little research has been done because it's a controlled substance.
It's a controlled substance because we lack research. 🙃
And since psilocybin can't be patented, there is no profit incentive to fund research. Most efficient system.
Bill Burr credits mushrooms for improving his personality.
