Thank you 20070 & Tracey, who loves pigeoniers, nobugsplease, Johhny V, MentalNomad

I'm sorry if I come over as a "know-it-all". I dont know how to post about something I know about without coming over that way. Guidance welcomed.
To give you a bit of background. I have a BSC in chemistry (not the pharma sort) and was part way through a PhD when I decided I didn't want to spend my life as a chemist. I changed tack and became an investigative journalist. My research training in the first career helped enormously in the second.
I am a huge fan of alternative medicine, but I cannot accept that everything about alternative medicine is GOOD and everything about conventional medicine is BAD, as many here believe.
Yes, conventional medicine kills. I have a friend who was lucky not to be one of those statistics. However, more people are cured by conventional medicine than are killed and alternative medicine also kills. No-one is without fault and that goes for alternative practioners as well as conventional ones.
Yes, there is huge corruption in the conventional medical world and I loathe the drug companies as much as anyone here, but that does not mean that I consider that drugs are never needed.
Yes, conventional medicine practioners lie, but so too do alternative practioners; for example, if - as I have - you had ever seen someone with agoria, acquired from taking Colloidal Silver bought over the internet, you would know that CS selling sites that say "There has never been a case .... blah blah..." are lying.
I am entirely committed to a marriage of the good parts of alternative and conventional medicines. That is what the focus of my book will be about.
I would love to be able to say in it " Liver Cleansing gets rid of gallstones", but how can I when thousands of people have flushed and there is not one verifiable piece of evidence to show that the results were gallstones.
I'm not asking for proof for me, but for the world. Why doesn't someone from CureZone undertake a flush and test under controlled conditions to produce results that would convince everyone that the results of a flush ARE gallstones. Why just go on citing stuff about dyes, which soesn't hold scientific water?
I realise I am knocking my head on a wall, because most people here are American or English and cannot comprehend the different (and very positive) attitude that exists towards alternatives in most of continental Europe. Please try to accept that, though it does not happen in the US and UK, there are plenty of places where conventional and alternative medicines work together for everyone's benefit. Tweet
