“I’ve met many a western medical doctor who could do nothing but prescribe pills.”
Western doctors do all sorts of things besides prescribing pills. They can tell you to get at least 30 minutes of vigorous excercise every day. They can tell you to eat less fat, red meat, and sugar and more green vegetables. They can tell you to reduce emotional stress. No one listens. That’s not the fault of western medicine.
“No one listens. That’s not the fault of western medicine.”
bah! way to give a simplistic answer to a complex question.
MDs are very good at Symptomatic treatment.
Poor patient compliance is just as much of a problem for an herbalist as well. They don’t work if you don’t take them and take them properly.
People with a lot of money and a self-serving agenda are capable of hijacking just about anything. Politics, government, medicine, education, etc.
