They have 'gem essences' in them, so full-on homepathic BS.

For real. I suspected that was even bullshittier BS even by snake oil standards and indeed it is. Made by placing gems in water and infusing their essence into the water? LOL. I shit you not:

May people who shill this garbage and rip off customers get herpes.

He genuinely believes in that stuff. His personal religious beliefs are a hodge-podge, Buddhist, sort of modern religion that believes animals and people both have spirits that are affected by that sort of thing.

He always recommends seeing a doctor first, never talks down medicine.

The stuff is questionable. But he's not selling it for the money-making motives (at least not only). He really believes they work.

IMO, it's not okay for people to advocate harmful things or take advantage of others just because it's their religion.

He always recommends seeing a doctor first, never talks down medicine.

Don't be naive. You must know that there are people out there who can't afford vet visits every time their pet gets sick, and they won't be consulting a vet or any other trained professional. But they might take a chance on a $30 vial of super natural good medication that Jackson Galaxy recommended, because he's so sincere and his cat videos are so helpful. That's unethical, and you know it.

The stuff is questionable. But he's not selling it for the money-making motives (at least not only).

Sorry, but that's nonsense. Let's read the list of ingredients for one of these vials of "behavioral wellness" holistic solutions:

Ingredients: Natural Spring Water, Proprietary Blend of Flower and Gem Essences including Arnica, Crab Apple, Olive, Alcohol (as a preservative)

You honestly believe that a 2 oz. bottle of mostly water that's touched a rock and a tiny bit of flower juice costs $30 to make? If he wasn't doing this to make money, why does it cost $30? Nah. That's a big profit for him, and the fact that he'd encourage people to give their pets water to help with behavioral issues and "extreme physical distress" is both stupid and dishonest. To help sell this snake oil, he puts his picture, signature, and personal guarantee on every item, and urges people to "buy with confidence"!


He really believes they work.

Believing in bullshit doesn't make it okay to sell that bullshit to others, at huge profit. I'm sorry, Phil. I know you like Jackson Galaxy a lot. But con men are charming and likable, that's how they trick people into giving them money and/or making excuses for conning people out of money.

Tom Cruise really believes in Scientology, but his faith doesn’t negate the harm he’s doing either.
