Several years ago he contracted an (entirely natural) intestinal infection while vacationing in Central America. For over a year he minimized antibiotics and other modern medical treatment, attempting to deal with the situation with meditation, herbs, diet, etc.

Most of the folks I know are not that extreme about it. Years ago, when living about 20 miles from Lyme, CT, I contracted Lyme Disease, as did 20% of our small town. Once the bulls-eye rash was found, $10 of anti-biotics and three weeks got rid of it completely. My landlord's wife tried the natural stuff first, but after it failed completely she used the anti-biotics successfully. No harm done in either case, and have seen colloidal silver (which has anti-biotic properties) do some amazing things.

Interesting you bring up Lyme Disease.

It’s a classic example of doctors refusing to believe a disease existed because they didn’t have an explanation for it. Therefore it must be “in the minds” of those suffering from it.

The cause and treatment of Lyme Disease was discovered very largely because residents of this area refused to accept the doctors’ magisterial pronouncements that they weren’t really sick.

But that’s a failure to do good science, not a failure of the science itself.
