⚖️ LSAT Exam Prep

"Natural remedies are safe because they come from nature." The flaw is:

A Appeal to nature — natural does not automatically mean safe (e.g., arsenic, poison ivy)
B Straw man
C Post hoc fallacy
D Equivocation

✓ Correct Answer: Option A

The appeal to nature fallacy assumes that "natural" equals "safe" or "good." Many natural substances are toxic (hemlock, mercury, etc.).
