Marion, KS 66861

Bottom line

Funnel-first framing that runs on persuasion, light on published evidence.

  • Of 9 health claims, 7 run counter to or conflict with the published evidence.
  • Primary persuasion tactic: Practitioner-branded supplement storefront.
  • Stated credentials look inflated relative to the advice given.
  • Profits from the products and labs they recommend, with no clear disclosure.
  • Gives advice beyond what their license covers.
Dr. Trust Me Bro says

Behold the practitioner storefront: every body system gets a product tile, every product can become a recurring shipment, and the footnote handles the legal heavy lifting. Kansas Functional Medicine has built a tidy little supplement supermarket where 'support' is the word doing all the selling.

Credentials
No degree or license is stated, so there is no demonstrated credential behind the practitioner-authority framing; that is an identification gap rather than proof of a fake credential.

Manipulation
The page combines practitioner-authority language, organ- and adrenal-themed claims, a footer disease disclaimer, and a commercial catalog without explaining evidence or financial ties.
84/100
Sales funnel
A large Standard Process catalog, cart controls, prices, and AutoShip create a clear supplement-retail funnel, though no lab-test upsell or affiliate recruitment is shown.
65/100
Grift map
Health-interest labels lead to branded products and recurring AutoShip, while the FDA disclaimer limits liability and the missing compensation disclosure keeps the commercial relationship conveniently foggy.

Evidence gap
The strongest gap is the implied medical significance of adrenal, kidney, gallbladder, immune, respiratory, and emotional-health support claims without product-specific clinical evidence or disease-specific safeguards.
58/100
Bro energy
The page sells practitioner-approved solutions for multiple body systems while keeping the seller's credentials and compensation structure vague—a compact retail version of the doc-bro playbook.

Direct answer

Paul Daniel Fay is licensed in Kansas as a chiropractor (DC), not as an MD or DO, and Kansas's chiropractic scope statute (K.S.A. 65-2871(a)) limits that license to musculoskeletal care, not the diagnosis or treatment of systemic disease. Even so, they advertise diagnosing or treating Thyroid Complex, Albaplex provides advanced kidney support, A-F Betafood supports gallbladder health, Allerplex provides environmental support, and Branded adrenal-support supplements, conditions that belong with endocrinologists and allergy and immunology specialists. Those same pages route patients toward supplements and paid programs that Paul Daniel Fay profits from.

Claims & evidence

In their own published words, they present themselves as qualified to treat, or give advice on, 9 conditions or treatments. A chiropractic license covers the spine, joints and muscles, and the scope review placed each one outside it. Each box leads with state-board scope notation; literature cross-check follows when we matched a specific claim. Every card carries its receipts: the quoted wording, a live source link, and an archived copy.

Outside scopeListed service

Paul Daniel Fay is not licensed or approved by Kansas State Board of Healing Arts (Chiropractic) to diagnose, treat, or cure Thyroid Complex.

Thyroid Complex

Supports
Thyroid disorders do have licensed, evidence-based treatments, but these depend on the specific diagnosis: levothyroxine is standard treatment for primary hypothyroidism, while hyperthyroidism may be treated with antithyroid drugs, radioactive iodine, or surgery. [2][3][10][11][12] The claim uses the undefined term "Thyroid Complex" and does not identify a disease, medicine, product, or treatment outcome. [4][6][9] Evaluation of thyroid nodules requires thyroid-function testing and ultrasound, with surveillance, biopsy, or surgery based on risk.
Contradicts
No cited paper establishes "Thyroid Complex" as a recognized diagnosis or demonstrates that a single licensed treatment applies to it. [11][12] The other index papers concern autoimmune encephalitis, depression, lung cancer, and related conditions, not a thyroid treatment claim. [1][3][4][6][7][8][9][10] Without a specified intervention, indication, regulatory jurisdiction, or outcome, there is no direct evidence supporting the claim as stated.
Mainstream view
Mainstream practice requires identifying the specific thyroid disorder before treatment. [2][10][11][12] Recognized management includes levothyroxine for hypothyroidism, antithyroid medication, radioactive iodine, or surgery for selected hyperthyroidism, and risk-based evaluation and management of nodules. [3][4][6][9] "Thyroid Complex" is not sufficiently specific to establish a licensed treatment claim.

Thyroid Complex

Rule: K.S.A. 65-2871(a)

Outside scopeListed service

Paul Daniel Fay is not licensed or approved by Kansas State Board of Healing Arts (Chiropractic) to advertise Adrenal Health Pack supports healthy adrenal function and emotional balance as within their scope of practice.

Adrenal Health Pack supports healthy adrenal function and emotional balance

Supports
Some individual ingredients sometimes marketed in adrenal-support products, such as ashwagandha, have low-certainty evidence for modest reductions in self-reported stress or anxiety, but this does not establish efficacy of an unspecified Adrenal Health Pack or improvement of adrenal function. [15][16] Broad-spectrum micronutrient formulas may produce subtle mood or stress improvements in some healthy adults, although studies are heterogeneous and specific treatment benefits are difficult to identify. [17]
Contradicts
There is no reliable evidence that a generic adrenal-support supplement improves healthy adrenal function, and the concept of adrenal fatigue lacks demonstrated validity; studies assessing it have produced conflicting results and used inadequate methods. [13][17] Over-the-counter adrenal supplements lack adequate efficacy and safety evidence. [14] Evidence for supplements and emotional outcomes is ingredient-specific, generally limited, and often low-certainty; systematic reviews do not validate unspecified combination products. [15][16] Some products containing adrenal extracts may pose risks including secondary adrenal insufficiency or adrenal crisis after discontinuation. None of the indexed papers directly evaluates an Adrenal Health Pack.
Mainstream view
The mainstream medical view is that clinically meaningful adrenal dysfunction requires medical evaluation and evidence-based treatment, not a nonspecific adrenal-support pack. [13][14][17] Emotional balance should not be inferred from adrenal marketing claims; any benefit from a particular ingredient would need to be demonstrated in appropriately designed trials of that exact product, while supplements may interact with medicines and can carry safety risks. [15][16] The claim as stated is unsupported.

Adrenal Health Pack

Rule: K.S.A. 65-2871(a)

Outside scope

Paul Daniel Fay is not licensed or approved by Kansas State Board of Healing Arts (Chiropractic) to diagnose, treat, or cure Adrenal Desiccated provides short term adrenal support for immediate energy needs.

Adrenal Desiccated provides short term adrenal support for immediate energy needs

Supports
No high-quality direct evidence supports adrenal desiccated supplements for short-term adrenal support or immediate energy. [18][19] Limited indirect evidence concerns DHEA, not adrenal desiccated products, and found no significant improvement in fatigue in a randomized trial of people with adrenal insufficiency. [20][21] A clinical practice guideline allows a cautious DHEA trial only for selected women with confirmed primary adrenal insufficiency and persistent low energy despite optimized hormone replacement, not for immediate energy or routine adrenal support.
Contradicts
The available evidence does not establish that adrenal desiccated products increase energy acutely or provide meaningful adrenal support. Adrenal-support supplements have been found to contain variable and undeclared thyroid or steroid hormones, including cortisol and cortisone, creating potential safety risks. [19][20] Expert medical guidance states that safety and effectiveness of adrenal glandular supplements are unknown and that they are generally not recommended because they may suppress the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis. [18] Adrenal fatigue has not been verified as a disease, and supplements marketed for it may be unsafe. The supplied index papers are unrelated clinical trial registrations and provide no supporting evidence for this claim.
Mainstream view
Adrenal desiccated products are not an evidence-based treatment for immediate energy needs or nonspecific adrenal support. [19] True adrenal insufficiency requires diagnostic evaluation and clinician-prescribed, appropriately dosed glucocorticoid replacement; fatigue should prompt assessment for other medical, sleep, psychological, medication-related, and lifestyle causes. [20] Unregulated glandular products may have inconsistent contents and potentially harmful hormone exposure.

Provides short term adrenal support for immediate energy needs

Rule: K.S.A. 65-2871(a)

Outside scope

Paul Daniel Fay is not licensed or approved by Kansas State Board of Healing Arts (Chiropractic) to advertise Adrenal Complex provides stress response support as within their scope of practice.

Adrenal Complex provides stress response support

Supports
Some individual ingredients marketed in adrenal-support products may modestly improve stress-related outcomes. Randomized-trial meta-analyses report that ashwagandha can reduce perceived stress, anxiety, and cortisol in adults, although evidence certainty is low and studies are heterogeneous. [20] A separate meta-analysis also found reductions in stress, anxiety, and cortisol with ashwagandha. [23] A small randomized study found that a specific phosphatidylserine/phosphatidic-acid formulation altered ACTH and cortisol responses to an acute stress test in chronically stressed participants, but it did not improve the psychological stress response. [22]
Contradicts
The listed index papers do not evaluate Adrenal Complex, its formulation, or the claim that it provides stress-response support. [22] They are unrelated clinical-trial registrations involving diabetes, bariatric surgery, COPD, gastric metaplasia, cancer, fertility, hemp fiber, and hepatitis B. [24] There is no established diagnosis of nonspecific adrenal fatigue for which an unspecified supplement is proven effective. Evidence for adaptogens is based on particular standardized ingredients and products, not interchangeable “adrenal complex” formulations; studies are generally short, small, and heterogeneous. The ashwagandha evidence has low certainty and substantial heterogeneity, and long-term effects remain uncertain. A pilot study of whole-food supplements for purported adrenal fatigue was uncontrolled or otherwise preliminary and explicitly called for double-blind randomized trials, so it cannot establish efficacy. DHEA is not a general substitute for an unspecified adrenal-support product; a systematic review found only small or possibly trivial benefits in women with adrenal insufficiency and no significant anxiety benefit. [20][23]
Mainstream view
The claim is too nonspecific to be considered clinically established. Some named ingredients, especially ashwagandha, may provide short-term modest improvements in perceived stress or cortisol in selected adults, but this does not validate an unspecified Adrenal Complex or demonstrate restoration of adrenal function. [22][23] Clinicians evaluate suspected adrenal insufficiency with appropriate testing and treat confirmed disease with guideline-directed hormone replacement rather than over-the-counter adrenal-support products. [20][24]

Stress response support

Rule: K.S.A. 65-2871(a)

Outside scope

Paul Daniel Fay is not licensed or approved by Kansas State Board of Healing Arts (Chiropractic) to advertise Albaplex provides advanced kidney support as within their scope of practice.

Albaplex provides advanced kidney support

Supports
No high-quality, product-specific clinical trials or systematic reviews were identified showing that Albaplex improves kidney function, prevents kidney disease, or provides clinically meaningful renal support. [27][28][33] The provided index papers concern kidney pathophysiology, biomarkers, and disease mechanisms rather than Albaplex or its claimed effects . [26][29][32][36]
Contradicts
The claim is not supported by the supplied literature, and the product’s ingredients, dose, safety, and relevant kidney outcomes are not established in the evidence provided. [27][28][29][35] A systematic review found that evidence for nutritional supplements in chronic kidney disease was generally low or very low quality and did not show improved CKD prognosis . A review of curcumin, a commonly marketed renal-support ingredient, found weak or nonsignificant effects on creatinine, blood urea nitrogen, GFR, and other clinical kidney outcomes apart from possible effects on proteinuria . [26][32][33][36] Supplements may also have adverse effects or nephrotoxic ingredients, so a generalized kidney-support claim cannot be assumed to indicate safety .
Mainstream view
Mainstream medical practice does not recognize Albaplex as an established treatment or preventive therapy for kidney disease. [28][31][36] Kidney support should refer to a defined intervention with evidence for specified outcomes, such as blood pressure and diabetes control, avoidance of nephrotoxins, appropriate medication management, and guideline-directed treatment of the underlying kidney condition. [27][29] Albaplex should not be used as a substitute for evaluation or evidence-based kidney care. [35]

Advanced Kidney Support

Rule: K.S.A. 65-2871(a)

Outside scope

Paul Daniel Fay is not licensed or approved by Kansas State Board of Healing Arts (Chiropractic) to advertise A-F Betafood supports gallbladder health as within their scope of practice.

A-F Betafood supports gallbladder health

Supports
One small randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial in 50 overweight adults at risk of gallbladder insufficiency found that 12 weeks of A-F Betafood was associated with reduced gallbladder wall thickness and within-group improvements in gallbladder volume and ejection fraction. [37][38][39][40][41] These findings provide limited direct support for improving selected ultrasound measures of gallbladder function in a narrowly studied population.
Contradicts
The trial did not demonstrate statistically significant between-group differences for gallbladder volume or ejection fraction, and only 42 participants completed it. [39][40][41] It assessed surrogate ultrasound outcomes over 12 weeks, not prevention or treatment of gallstones, cholecystitis, biliary obstruction, symptoms, or clinically important gallbladder disease. No independent systematic reviews, meta-analyses, or major guidelines establish A-F Betafood as effective for general gallbladder health. [37][38] The remaining indexed records are unrelated clinical studies or a trial registry entry and do not provide additional corroboration.
Mainstream view
A-F Betafood may have preliminary evidence for short-term changes in selected gallbladder-function measurements in a small, specific group, but evidence is insufficient to recommend it broadly for gallbladder health or to treat or prevent gallbladder disease. [37][38][39][40][41] Standard care depends on the diagnosed condition, and persistent right-upper-abdominal pain, fever, jaundice, vomiting, or suspected gallstones requires medical evaluation rather than reliance on this supplement.

Gallbladder health

Rule: K.S.A. 65-2871(a)

Outside scope

Paul Daniel Fay is not licensed or approved by Kansas State Board of Healing Arts (Chiropractic) to diagnose, treat, or cure AllergCo supports seasonal stress, immune, respiratory, and skin health.

AllergCo supports seasonal stress, immune, respiratory, and skin health

Supports
The provided index papers do not evaluate AllergCo or its effects on seasonal stress, immune, respiratory, or skin health. [43] A systematic review found limited and ingredient-specific evidence for some supplements in allergic rhinitis, but emphasized the paucity of high-quality evidence and recommended shared decision-making; this does not establish efficacy for AllergCo as a product. [42] A review of immune-related supplements concluded that overall evidence is not strong for healthy consumers seeking immune support or prevention of respiratory infections.
Contradicts
None of the listed clinical-trial records evaluates AllergCo, and they concern unrelated interventions and conditions. Evidence for individual ingredients cannot be transferred to an unspecified combination product, and the claim provides no defined clinical outcome, dose, or population. [42] The available evidence does not demonstrate that AllergCo improves seasonal stress, immune function, respiratory health, or skin health. [43]
Mainstream view
AllergCo cannot be considered clinically proven for these four broad health claims without product-specific randomized trials using validated outcomes. [43] Some ingredients in some supplements may have limited or condition-specific evidence, particularly for allergic-rhinitis symptoms, but this is insufficient to support broad claims about stress, immunity, respiratory health, and skin health for AllergCo. [42]
In their own wordsView sourceArchived copy

Seasonal stress, immune, respiratory & skin health support

Rule: K.S.A. 65-2871(a)

Outside scope

Paul Daniel Fay is not licensed or approved by Kansas State Board of Healing Arts (Chiropractic) to diagnose, treat, or cure Allerplex provides environmental support.

Allerplex provides environmental support

Supports
Some low-certainty evidence concerns dietary supplements or individual ingredients for allergic-rhinitis symptoms, but none of the retrieved evidence directly evaluates Allerplex or establishes that it provides the broad benefit described as environmental support. [47][48] The systematic review found promising signals for several individual supplements but emphasized limited high-quality evidence and recommended shared decision-making.
Contradicts
The supplied index results are unrelated clinical-trial registrations and provide no evidence for Allerplex. There is no identified peer-reviewed randomized trial, systematic review, or guideline evaluating Allerplex itself for environmental allergies or any defined clinical outcome. Evidence for other supplements cannot be generalized to this branded product, especially when its formulation, dose, and target outcome are not established. A systematic review of supplements for established atopic eczema found no convincing evidence for benefit and concluded that supplements could not be recommended for routine practice. [47]
Mainstream view
Allerplex is not an established evidence-based treatment or preventive measure for environmental allergies. [47] Management should be based on a defined diagnosis and validated options such as allergen avoidance when feasible, intranasal corticosteroids, antihistamines, or allergen immunotherapy; any supplement should be considered separately because product-specific efficacy and safety evidence are lacking.

Environmental support

Rule: K.S.A. 65-2871(a)

Outside scope

Paul Daniel Fay is not licensed or approved by Kansas State Board of Healing Arts (Chiropractic) to advertise Andrographis Complex provides short-term immune system support as within their scope of practice.

Andrographis Complex provides short-term immune system support

Supports
Systematic reviews and meta-analyses of Andrographis paniculata, a principal ingredient in many Andrographis products, report modest short-term improvements in symptoms of uncomplicated acute upper-respiratory-tract infections, including cough and sore throat, compared with placebo or usual care. [50][51][52][53] A review of seven double-blind controlled trials also found preliminary evidence of a preventative effect, although it emphasized that further research was needed.
Contradicts
The indexed papers supplied by the user are unrelated clinical-trial records and provide no evidence for Andrographis Complex. The available evidence generally concerns specific standardized Andrographis paniculata preparations used for treatment or prevention of upper-respiratory symptoms, not an unspecified product called Andrographis Complex or a broad enhancement of immune-system function. [50][51][52][53] Evidence for immune support as a general biological outcome is therefore indirect, and product formulations, doses, and quality vary. Reported adverse effects are usually nonserious but can include gastrointestinal and skin reactions; safety evidence does not establish efficacy for the claim.
Mainstream view
Some standardized Andrographis paniculata preparations may modestly reduce symptoms or possibly shorten uncomplicated common-cold or upper-respiratory infections when used short term, but this should not be generalized to every Andrographis Complex product or described as proven nonspecific immune-system support. [50][51][52][53] Major conclusions are limited by heterogeneous preparations, subjective outcomes, variable study quality, and limited evidence for prevention or broader immune enhancement.
