Re: Quackery today
Quackery is used by the official medical industry to try and attack it’s opposition, the alternative medicine system, much of which is thousands of years in existence with a wealth of knowledge. Big pharma has taken many herbs researched them, marketed the “active ingredients” and called it medicine and then turned around and discredited the herbal medical source of the drug as quackery.
They claim “unproven according to scientific principles” but when you look at the
Science that is done by the pharmaceutical labs you find the
Science is BAD SCIENCE. For example they do dozens or hundreds of trials and only report the two where they got the result they were looking for. This is not
Science but fluke. And then there is giving the control group a high dose of an old drug and the trial group a low dose of the new drugs. This makes it look like the old drug had a lot of side effects and the new one doesn’t. This is bad science. In reality it is not science at all.
Also you need to mention that the placebo effect is seen in EVERYTHING, i.e., all drugs have a placebo effect and so do all medical procedures.
