A premise: there is no "official medicine" and "alternative medicine . There scientific medicine and the unscientific.
Scientific Medicine: Text with double-blind, reproducibility, anti fraud, significant sample.
Medicine unscientific : untested, or tested, but with negative results (risk / benefit ratio \u0026lt;1, or with the same outcome with placebo).
Some herbs, for example, are not tested. May work, who knows. We urgently need a serious trial.
Homeopathy is part of the second category: the head, never gave different results from the placebo. It means that unless you are convinced of its effectiveness, you do not care. Of course, scientific medicine is often badly abused or prescribed, and in some cases is even better than a placebo, which certainly has not improved outcomes of care at all.
But the idolatry of alternative medicine, consider by the media as the answer to human genius and stupidity of cold medicine controlled by wicked corporations, leads inexorably to a endless stream of people to leave scientific health care for non-scientific. In some cases (not so rare), causing the death of a child . The
repeat till you drop, and is to be written on all those vials of fresh water that the quacks continue to sell even in a pharmacy:
HOMEOPATHY MAKES NO RESULTS OTHER THAN THOSE OF THE PLACEBO
