Hey individual,
I watched a short youtube documentary a while ago which discussed a different kind of approach to medicine, but I can't find the link to it.

Instead of trying to fix the body with all these legal drugs;
The people in the video advocated an approach something like this:

Take a kind of a broader view of the human body and it's essentially needed vitamins, minerals nutrients etc; then:

Remove what shouldn't be there;
And put back what should be there.

- With the result being that the body should then repair itself.

Seems simple and logical enough.
I wish I could find the link to it again or remember what they called it.

Belly,

Politicising vaccination will only do harm in my view.

ACs

I think you are outlining the fad junk science of today. I think it total crap directed at conning people, not helping them. As a long time sufferer of chronic illness I can say that modern medicine has worked miracles for me and junk science is junk. That has been my experience.

Seems simple and logical enough.
Armchair Critic,
Only one problem with that, Govt doesn't fund simplicity & logic !

Fester IF the subject has been politicized it was not by any of us
It in fact is a world wide concern and in truth beggared if I know how you can think it is not well and truly a political issue now
Truth is the thread started with the news the Australian Government has asked facebook to take some control over anti vaxx pages on its site
AC the British Royal family have been known users of Natural therapy , you touch on a form of that in your post
BUT the defeat of Cholera is just one achievement of modern medicines we need such and hope, or at least I do, a cancer cure maybe be in the form of a shot in the arm

Modern medicine seems to be like building a large aircraft with no runway to land it on !

Fester you posted while I was doing the same
I did not say I support Alternative medicines, however some clearly seem to work
Take Aspro, first a product of willow trees
In fact science constantly searches for new medicines in plants around the world
Linking anti vaxx to Alternative treatments is a bridge too far for me
After all the only link I see is both have true believers on both sides of any debate about their use
