With a bit of research, EBM Medical appears to be a MLM program for healthcare providers. Here's the company explaining how selling their products to patients will up the revenue to one's practice: https://ebmmedicalacademy.com/p/building-practice-revenue1 Curing everything under the sun. And "medical foods" in the form of capsules? That's very iffy, with little science to back it up. FDA does not regulate it (just monitors) so you would be taking whatever gunk someone decides to mush into a capsule. (Note, too, that this EBM site is cash-only, no insurance... in part bc most insurance won't cover such things).

I’d say this fits in “if it sounds good it will work” rationale. It might be in the “what do you have to lose?” Category. Then again “I’m so smart and experienced so do this” may apply. How about “there is no downside so why not?” Most of these things in different modalities or combinations have been tried. The only work that has credibility is the treatment and data Batch has presented. From a strictly science point of view its easy to poke holes in the data but it’s well presented and he has decent follow up. I would take someone seriously if they did half the work Batch has done. In the end we really don’t have any one size fits all answers. My guess is we will find a combination of genetic predisposition and environmental factors are in play. It’s hard to imagine a selective advantage that allowed cluster headaches to survive the genetic pool but someday in retrospect it will all make sense. If it is genetic then I guess we really are all related.
