A bold and provocative title - Barbara O’Neill is very much alive - this book by Michael O’Neill delves into the coordinated attempt to silence a powerful voice in natural health. At the heart of the controversy is a 66-year-old grandmother who spent decades educating others on natural healing. Despite no evidence of harm, Barbara was targeted by the Health Care Complaints Commission (HCCC) and labelled a public health risk - based not on action, but hypothetical danger.

This book reveals how the Friends of Science in Medicine and the media contributed to a smear campaign, raising questions about censorship, control, and the suppression of non-mainstream medical voices.
