Chinese are the biggest consumers of Antibiotics in the world. I lived in China for several years and it is available without a scriipt everywhere. For every single sore throat most of Chinese take Antibiotics . A lot of them suffer from candida and traditional chinese medicine can't do nothing for them. I've been there for a while so I know that.
I speak chinese and I have seen more than 10 differents traditional Chinese doctors. What they proposed to me did nothing to help my condition on the long run.
Before western medicine got in China at the end of the 19th century, life expectancy was below 50 years old and now it is 73, and even over 80 in large cities where western medicine is the most available.
