Internet Marketing ConsultantGreat post. I am a fan of alternative medicine which treats not only the symptom, but instead concentrate on the person as a whole, including their environment and more. Jul 13th 2011 05:19 |

 Health, Wellness, e-BusinessI am a big fan of alternative medicine mainly because they are (and I quote you): "a holistic form of medicine which treats the entire body, mind and spirit." Conventional medicine has it's positives but has one major weakness: It regards the human body as if it is some kind of mere machine - as if it is not connected to the environment and has no mind or spirit of its own and thus seems to concentrate on mainly dealing with the symptoms of diseases instead of the root cause. Real genuine alternative medicine addresses the disease from its root cause. Jul 18th 2011 02:17 |
