Merits of alternative medicine

Natural supplements are unscientific.  The government must ban them from being sold and impose heavy fines on the retailers.

it may work, but it may not, it might even be counter-productive,’ we argue this is most certainly the reality that practitioners should keep in mind. no conventional medicine is based in ancients practices that are originated when psychopathology and action mechanism of substances were unacknowledged

Natural supplements have to use because like laughter strengthens your immune system,boost mood,diminishes pain and protect you from the damaging effect of stress.I read one sentence in google they said:"A joyful heart makes for good health,but a broken spirit dries up the bone."If you eat good food and live a good life i think we might live longer.

Some may say that the FDA requirements are unreasonable. Billions of people take turmeric as a natural antibacterial, and you can buy turmeric pills for a small price. If I make turmeric pills and say on the bottle "Helps Fight Bacterial Infections", the FDA will send the police to arrest me. Instead, they want me to pay tens or hundreds of thousands of dollars in application fees so they can "test" my product to allow me to say that on the bottle. I could never compete with big pharma companies that make synthetic drugs.

while is true positive attitude is beneficial for our health. It is not the case with the all kind of no conventional medicine. Indeed, all the benefits that practitioners claim make be due just to the place effect. There is not evidence of the improvement in health is actually due to that supplements.
