Alternative Medicine (Hint: This is NOT really medicine)

[The Valkyrie]

I am thinking that this is why people fall for the whole 'Alternative Medicine' woo.

We don't understand our own bodies (through trial and error), everyone is different, and mainstream medicine isn't as advanced as we would like to think it is (in terms of the previous)

I do have what I call 'First-First Aid' it only goes so far; then it is off to the doctors.

I rmember when I graduated, talking to an older doctor who was getting ready to retire. He said to me (paraphrasing), "I don't envy you. Medicine is progressing so fast these days you're likely to spend as much time keeping up with it as practicing it."
