They don’t stay in their lane sometimes. Years ago, a neighbor visited a chiropractor and bought a coupon book for multiple visits. Later she was diagnosed by her MD as diabetic. The chiropractor warned her about insulin, and put her on an orange juice diet. They carried her body out of her home a month later.
