Schizophrenia can be cured with niacin (vitamin B3). Search for Adam Hoffer's achievements

[smolder]

It's weird that you would state that so confidently when, as wikipedia says, "Hoffer's ideas about megavitamin therapy to treat mental illness are not accepted by the medical community." It didn't pan out.

Didn't pan out because it's not the plan to pan out. The plan is to make people think there's something wrong with them and recycle them with insurance.

Enzymatic cofactors (vitamins) many not a be cure, but maybe a better, cheaper, less harmful, treatment. Take pyridoxine (B6) as an example.
