You would hope they would but probably not Suzy... As you know they want you to use THIER STUFF,they want the $$$$$$$$$$ .. They wouldnt use an alternative treatment!! (@ least and tell anyone)
The difference is that conventional medicine has to have evidence that it works. Alternative medicine does not.
If it works, it's not alternative medicine, it's just medicine.
Well, why shouldn't they. Pharma hasn't been doing too shabby for a LOT of decades. Alternative/holistic medicine is working to keep a lot of our population in improved health and out of doctor's offices. Speaking for me for sure.
Holistic remedies are nothing but placebos sold to the gullible..Some supplements are fine, but others not so much...
Homeopathic "remedies" enjoy a unique status in the health marketplace: They are the only category of quack products legally marketable as drugs. Homeopathy: The Ultimate Fake
Simply put Health Care is a business. They need repeat customers.
Exactly THEY need sickness and disease. Dr. Google is pretty inexpensive.
I prefer to "support" the vitamin/supplement industries. I eat pretty good but with aging so much changes and the foods just don't do it, that's why many supplement.

I use some homeopathics and they are not fakes. A homeopathic topical called Topricin keeps me walking and hopefully free from a surgery by our surgery world.
I also use a sleep remedy, Calms Forte' and it's a salvation.
Have you used homeopathics? Or just spouting what you have no clue. I spent time on a homeopathic forum years ago as I considered going totally homeopathic and the folks around the world had such a hard time with the Americans and their drugs.
Wait Jam, I thought is was the PainRx (or whatever it's called that you started after ibuprofen) that kept you walking? Or the myrrh oil? As per all your threads you are still buying more things to try. And didn't your swear by DMSO?
I gotta say, the stuff you swear by that keeps you healthy, doesn't seem to work very well.

It will be easy to get too because many people are "sheeple" and will blindly follow doctors just because they have a degree. They won't even bother trying it because the doctors say it's bad and even when they do try it they don't realize that they are just one person and there are just as many people that could be different than them as there are the same. They also forget that conventional medicine could be a placebo too.

Yes, Mikala....I use them all. HOPE you are doing great at close to the 80 mark in your life. I'm so messed up from the hip surgery and the body structure is pretty shot. What I use keeps me walking. I was great at your age and had no surgery etc. PLEASE.....You sure do a good job keeping track of what I use.
I call it my arsenal...do you have an arsenal?

No I don't do a good job of tracking what you use - your list is amazingly long so I few stick in my mind. What I mentioned were just your most recent.
I take about 1 drug per condition. 3 general suppls (fish oil, curcumin, Bcomplex). Plus a couple Rx for as needed.
I don't go around swearing by anything as you do. Everything cures what ails you, until the next thread where you claim something else does. After reading you for awhile it has become apparent that nothing is working for you.
You have actually turned me farther away from alternative meds.
