Prevalence of functional somatic syndromes and bodily distress syndrome in the Danish population: the DanFunD study, 2019, Petersen et al

I'm sorry, this was published in Nature?

When an expert process produces something that is indistinguishable from Goop or any other weird pseudoscience, you are destroying the validity and credibility of expertise.

I do love this part, though:

Multi-syndromatic FSS and multi-organ BDS were associated with female sex, poor health, physical limitations, and comorbidity.

Poor health is indeed associated with poor health. What a surprise. Who knew?

Post-hoc... ...criteria

Sounds familiar.
