    I mean, concentrating the good thing and removing the crap is the basis of medical care.

    You know what we call alternate medicine that is proven to work? Medicine. If it worked we wouldn’t need “alternate”.

      I always try to point out that “alternative” means it’s something different than. Like an alternative to something that helps. You wouldn’t eat “alternative food.” Because it’s not food.

        I’m not sure where you are but I firmly believe a lot of what passes for food in the US is some sort of “food-like product.”
