Re: Blended Medicines - From "Alternative" to "Complementary"

MP: Most allopathic treatments are symptomatic at best. That is not a
cure. Illicit drugs
are also symptomatic relief for many ailments. This is why they are
illegal. This
gives allopathy semi-legitimacy. Allopathy is primarily
palliative(goal) and alternative is
primarily curative(goal). I read the article you linked to. Opinion &
Garbage - 2 cents worth.
Allopathy isn't legitimate treatment, it's fraud, and frequently
dangerous.

Of course, many mainstream physicians are still leery of alternative
therapies-and some still call them worthless. But many more have come
to realize that their brand of medicine doesn't have a monopoly on
healing and that alternative approaches often are quite valuable.

And some are saying that it is time to correct the terminology:

There is NO alternative or complementary *medicine*.
