Funnel-first framing that runs on persuasion, light on published evidence.
- Of 14 health claims, 5 run counter to or conflict with the published evidence, and 9 were not independently checked.
- Primary persuasion tactic: Chiropractor as Internal Medicine Doctor.
- 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.
Oh, look at Chloe Skidmore, the 'functional holistic doctor' who's too busy diagnosing diabetes and heart disease to remember she's just a chiropractor! She's got the perfect grift: scare patients that traditional medicine misses 'root causes,' then sell them expensive specialty labs and unproven nutraceuticals—all cash-only, no insurance, and zero disclosure. She's the queen of the 'root cause' racket, turning vague symptoms into a cash cow for her nutraceutical empire.
High grift signals
Score breakdown
Direct answer
Chloe Skidmore 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 conditions, Autoimmunity, Hashimoto’s, IBS & SIBO, and Anxiety & Depression, conditions that belong with rheumatologists, endocrinologists, and gastroenterologists. Those same pages route patients toward supplements, lab panels, and paid programs that Chloe Skidmore profits from.

Diagnosing and managing diabetes, heart disease, hormonal imbalances, and digestive problems
- Supports
- High-quality evidence supports that diabetes is diagnosed and managed using standardized criteria and ongoing evidence-based care. The ADA Standards of Care explicitly cover screening, diagnosis, treatment goals, and management of diabetes and its comorbidities, and recommend diagnosis by A1C or plasma glucose criteria with confirmatory testing when needed . [4][5][6][7] The ADA also states that diabetes care includes prevention, screening, diagnosis, and management of diabetes-associated complications and comorbidities, which includes cardiovascular risk management . For cardiovascular disease, major guideline frameworks support evidence-based diagnosis and management of blood pressure and related risk factors, and hypertension guidelines are a core part of heart-disease prevention and treatment . [1][3][8] For digestive disease, evidence-based guidance exists for specific conditions such as inflammatory bowel disease and nutritional management, showing that gastrointestinal disorders are routinely diagnosed and managed through specialty guidelines . [2]
- Contradicts
- The claim is very broad and nonspecific, so the evidence does not support it as a general statement about one person or one practice. The provided index papers support diagnosis and management of specific conditions, not an all-encompassing ability to diagnose and manage diabetes, heart disease, hormonal imbalances, and digestive problems in general. [6][7] The indexed GI and nutrition guidelines apply to specific clinical scenarios such as inflammatory bowel disease or parenteral nutrition, not all digestive problems . [2][3][4][8] The hormonal-imbalance part is especially weak because no indexed peer-reviewed guideline directly supports broad diagnosis and treatment of unspecified hormone imbalances, and endocrine practice generally requires condition-specific testing and specialist interpretation rather than a generic claim. Also, a hypertension guideline is not the same as comprehensive diagnosis and management of all heart disease . [1]
- Mainstream view
- Mainstream medicine recognizes that diabetes, cardiovascular disease, endocrine disorders, and gastrointestinal diseases are diagnosed and managed through evidence-based, condition-specific clinical guidelines, usually requiring appropriate testing, differential diagnosis, and disease-specific treatment. [1][2][3][4][6][7][8] The broad phrase diagnosing and managing diabetes, heart disease, hormonal imbalances, and digestive problems is too general to be considered a validated standalone claim without specifying which diseases, what level of expertise is meant, and under what clinical scope. Deterministic PubMed cross-check found no matching indexed studies for these terms (absence of indexed evidence is not evidence against the claim).

Chloe Skidmore is not licensed or approved by Kansas State Board of Healing Arts (Chiropractic) to diagnose, treat, or cure Thyroid conditions.
Thyroid conditions
- Supports
- The broad claim that thyroid conditions are real, clinically important disorders with established diagnostic and treatment pathways is strongly supported by multiple high‑quality guidelines and reviews from major endocrine societies and national bodies. These guidelines consistently recognize hypothyroidism, hyperthyroidism (including Graves disease), thyroid nodules, subclinical thyroid dysfunction, Hashimoto’s thyroiditis, and pediatric thyroid disease as well‑defined conditions requiring structured evaluation and individualized management. [11][13][14][16] Evidence‑based recommendations emphasize serum TSH and free T4 as the primary biochemical tests, with thyroid antibodies and imaging (ultrasound, sometimes scintigraphy) used when indicated for etiologic clarification and risk stratification. Large guideline documents and narrative reviews synthesize RCTs and observational data to support the use of levothyroxine monotherapy as the standard treatment for overt hypothyroidism, with dose titrated to normalize TSH and relieve symptoms, and regular monitoring once stable. They also support antithyroid drugs, radioactive iodine, and thyroidectomy as the three main evidence‑based options for treating hyperthyroidism, chosen based on age, etiology (e. g. , Graves vs toxic nodules), comorbidities, and patient preference. Major guidelines on thyroid disease assessment and management further endorse individualized management of subclinical hypothyroidism and hyperthyroidism, generally reserving hormone therapy for higher TSH levels or specific risk groups, and recommend structured follow‑up schedules. [9][12][15] There is long‑standing evidence that untreated overt hyperthyroidism and overt hypothyroidism are associated with increased cardiovascular morbidity, adverse obstetric outcomes, bone loss, and reduced quality of life, and that appropriate treatment reduces these risks. Overall, mainstream thyroid guidelines from American and European thyroid associations, NICE and other national bodies, and major reviews in endocrine journals provide robust, high‑quality support for the basic claim that thyroid conditions are common, clinically significant, and should be managed according to evidence‑based algorithms. [10]
- Contradicts
- The generic claim “thyroid conditions” is too vague to be fully assessed, but there are several areas where influencer narratives commonly diverge from high‑quality evidence. First, many influencers imply that thyroid conditions are universally underdiagnosed and that very minor TSH deviations or nonspecific symptoms should be treated aggressively with thyroid hormone; this is contradicted by guidelines that recommend against routine thyroid hormone therapy in most adults with subclinical hypothyroidism, because randomized evidence shows little or no benefit in symptoms or quality of life for many such patients. [9][10][12][15][16] Second, some claims promote desiccated thyroid, high‑dose T3, or compounded preparations as superior to standard levothyroxine; major guidelines currently do not support these therapies as routine first‑line treatments due to insufficient RCT evidence of benefit and concerns about safety and stability. Third, popular content sometimes portrays thyroid autoimmunity or Hashimoto’s thyroiditis as requiring immediate surgery or extreme dietary restrictions; surgery is rarely indicated in Hashimoto’s, being reserved for compressive goiters, suspicion of malignancy, or rare autonomous function, and evidence for restrictive diets as primary therapy is limited and not part of guideline‑based care. [11][14] Fourth, influencers may claim that thyroid medications should be stopped once people “feel better” or that normal lab values are not meaningful; evidence‑based recommendations emphasize maintaining biochemical euthyroidism and monitoring TSH and free T4 at defined intervals, because both undertreatment and overtreatment carry long‑term risks. Finally, there is little high‑quality evidence to support many proposed “natural” cures, detoxes, or supplement regimens for thyroid disease; these are generally absent from major guidelines and systematic reviews, and can sometimes interfere with appropriate diagnosis or treatment. [13]
- Mainstream view
- The mainstream medical position is that thyroid conditions are common, well‑characterized endocrine disorders with strong evidence‑based frameworks for diagnosis and management, but that treatment decisions must be individualized and guided by both biochemistry and clinical context. [9][10][11][13][14][16] For overt hypothyroidism, levothyroxine monotherapy is standard of care, titrated to normalize TSH, with long‑term monitoring and attention to drug interactions and comorbidities. For hyperthyroidism (including Graves disease and toxic nodular disease), the accepted mainstays of therapy are antithyroid drugs, radioactive iodine, or surgery, chosen based on patient factors, disease severity, eye involvement, and reproductive plans; beta‑blockers are routinely used for symptomatic control. Subclinical thyroid dysfunction is approached cautiously: in general, routine thyroid hormone therapy for mild subclinical hypothyroidism is not recommended in most adults, and treatment is reserved for higher TSH levels, pregnancy or pregnancy planning, significant symptoms, or specific cardiovascular risk profiles. [12][15] Major guidelines discourage non‑standard thyroid hormone preparations as routine first‑line therapy, pending more robust trial data, and they emphasize shared decision‑making, evidence Deterministic PubMed cross-check found no matching indexed studies for these terms (absence of indexed evidence is not evidence against the claim).

Chloe Skidmore is not licensed or approved by Kansas State Board of Healing Arts (Chiropractic) to diagnose, treat, or cure Fertility and pregnancy support.
Fertility and pregnancy support
- Supports
- High-quality evidence supports a limited but real role for specific medical and nutritional interventions in improving certain fertility and pregnancy outcomes, particularly in women with ovarian aging or diminished ovarian reserve, and in selected thyroid conditions. A recent systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized trials in women with ovarian aging found that antioxidant supplements (including coenzyme Q10, melatonin, myo‑inositol, and vitamins) significantly increased the number of retrieved oocytes, high‑quality embryos, and clinical pregnancy rates while reducing gonadotropin dose, with coenzyme Q10 showing the most pronounced benefit. [22][26][28] This supports the idea that targeted antioxidant therapy can modestly improve fertility parameters in women with ovarian aging. The systematic review and meta-analysis of therapeutic management in women with diminished ovarian reserve (DOR) reports that oral nutritional supplements such as vitamins, coenzyme Q10, and DHEA can reduce FSH, increase AMH and antral follicle count, increase oocyte and high‑quality embryo numbers, and improve clinical pregnancy rates in DOR women undergoing IVF/ICSI, although the recommendation is weak and framed as complementary therapy rather than primary treatment. [25] For thyroid-related fertility, a systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials on levothyroxine treatment in women with subclinical hypothyroidism (SCH) examined fertility and pregnancy outcomes, indicating that thyroid hormone replacement can be clinically relevant in a subset of women with thyroid-related fertility issues, although effects on live birth and pregnancy outcomes are nuanced. [23] Regarding structural uterine factors, a systematic review and meta-analysis of fibroids and natural fertility supports that fibroids may interfere with natural fertility, and other evidence indicates that fertility-sparing surgical management (e. [24] g. , myomectomy for submucosal fibroids) can improve pregnancy rates in infertile women, thereby indirectly supporting the claim that appropriate medical/surgical management can aid fertility and subsequent pregnancy. Overall, these high-quality studies support the concept that evidence-based, condition-specific interventions (antioxidants in ovarian aging/DOR, levothyroxine in selected thyroid conditions, surgery for fibroids) can enhance fertility and support pregnancy in defined clinical populations, but they do not support broad, universal claims that generic supplements alone reliably “support fertility and pregnancy” for all women. [27][29]
- Contradicts
- Evidence also indicates important limitations and contradictions that weaken broad claims of fertility and pregnancy support, especially for generalized supplement use. [27] The systematic review and meta-analysis of antioxidants in women with ovarian aging shows improvements in intermediate fertility markers and clinical pregnancy rates, but it does not demonstrate strong or consistent effects on live birth rates, and benefits are most evident with coenzyme Q10 at specific doses and timing rather than with all antioxidants or supplement regimens. [22][24][25][26][28][29] The DOR management meta-analysis likewise concludes that oral nutritional supplements may help and have “certain clinical value” but only supports a weak recommendation, emphasizing that these are complementary therapies and that evidence quality and consistency are limited. The systematic review and meta-analysis of levothyroxine treatment in subclinical hypothyroidism examines fertility and pregnancy outcomes and highlights that levothyroxine does not uniformly improve live birth, miscarriage, or overall pregnancy outcomes across all women with SCH, contradicting any blanket claim that thyroid hormone therapy broadly enhances fertility or pregnancy in mild thyroid dysfunction. [23] The fibroids and natural fertility meta-analysis specifically notes that epidemiological data suggest but do not definitively demonstrate that fibroids interfere with natural fertility, indicating that the relationship between fibroids, fertility, and pregnancy is complex and not fully resolved. This undermines overly simplistic claims that any treatment for fibroids automatically supports fertility and pregnancy without careful patient selection and evidence-based management. Taken together, these findings contradict strong, generalized influencer-style claims that supplements or single interventions reliably “support fertility and pregnancy” across the board. Benefits are conditional, modest, and dependent on the underlying diagnosis, with notable gaps in high‑quality data on live birth and long‑term pregnancy outcomes.
- Mainstream view
- The mainstream medical and scientific position is that fertility and pregnancy outcomes are best supported through comprehensive, diagnosis-driven care rather than generic supplement-based approaches. [23][24][29] Current evidence and specialist guidelines support individualized evaluation of women with infertility or adverse pregnancy outcomes, including assessment of ovarian reserve, thyroid function, uterine anatomy (e. g. , fibroids), and other systemic factors. In women with ovarian aging or diminished ovarian reserve, mainstream practice recognizes that certain antioxidant or nutritional regimens (especially coenzyme Q10 and related supplements Deterministic PubMed cross-check found no matching indexed studies for these terms (absence of indexed evidence is not evidence against the claim).

Chloe Skidmore is not licensed or approved by Kansas State Board of Healing Arts (Chiropractic) to diagnose, treat, or cure Immune dysregulation.
Immune dysregulation
- Supports
- High-quality evidence shows that immune dysregulation is a well-established medical concept describing abnormal immune responses, including inappropriate activation (autoimmunity, allergy, cytokine storm) and suppression (immunodeficiency, immune exhaustion). Narrative and systematic reviews on inborn errors of immunity describe primary immune regulatory disorders where genetic defects in pathways such as type I interferon signaling, regulatory T-cell function, and other key immune regulators lead to autoimmunity, hyperinflammation, and immunodeficiency, directly framing these conditions as immune dysregulation diseases. [31][32][33] Reviews of immune dysregulation in sepsis and severe infections (including SARS-CoV-2 and related coronaviruses) show a pattern of simultaneous hyperinflammation, cytokine storm, and immune paralysis, with altered innate and adaptive cell function, apoptosis, and disturbed Th1/Th2/Th17/Treg balance, which is explicitly described as systemic immune dysregulation. A systematic review on pesticide exposure mechanisms concludes that many pesticides have immunotoxic effects, interfere with immune tolerance and control, and can initiate or amplify detrimental immune responses, which constitutes environmentally driven immune dysregulation. [30] Another systematic review focused on pesticide exposure and cancer risk similarly notes that chronic exposure can dysregulate Th1/Th2/Th17 cytokines and lead to immune exhaustion and poor outcomes in breast cancer, again reinforcing that immune dysregulation is a recognized mechanistic pathway. Meta-analyses and systematic reviews of immune checkpoint inhibitors demonstrate that these drugs deliberately disrupt inhibitory immune pathways to enhance anti-tumor immunity but also break immune tolerance and cause immune-related adverse events such as autoimmunity and organ-specific inflammation, which major oncology guidelines describe as treatment-induced immune dysregulation. Major clinical reviews and institutional descriptions of primary immune regulatory disorders (PIRD) define immune dysregulation in mainstream terms as disturbed immune tolerance with excessive inflammation and autoimmunity due to defects in regulatory T cells and other checkpoints. Overall, these high-quality sources support the general claim that immune dysregulation is real, clinically important, and mechanistically well documented across genetic disorders, environmental exposures, cancer immunotherapy, infections, and sepsis. contradicts

When the service is also outside their license
This pattern gets sharper when the service routed to your FSA or HSA also sits outside the practitioner's licensed scope. A provider advertising to diagnose or treat conditions their state board does not authorize is already operating past the edge of their license. Pair that with a cash-pay, FSA or HSA funded model that keeps the work away from any insurer or government program, and there is no claims reviewer, no audit trail, and no payer left to ask whether the care was appropriate or even within the provider's remit. The tax advantaged dollars do the paying, the patient carries the substantiation, and the scope question never reaches anyone with the authority to raise it.
