    My little battle with alt med.

    As many of you probably don't know, my niece has cystic fibrosis. My brother came across a certain thread in the Aussie CF web site. I took up arms. My aim was not to convince the proponent, but to leave the information there for any future person who might come accross it. I would appreciate...

    Canadian Med School Adds Alternative Treatments to Curriculum

    http://www.cbc.ca/story/science/national/2005/12/05/alternative-medicine051205.html bolding mine I wonder if they've faced any criticism for teaching this, and how they've managed to get around the "evidence-based thing".

    Benefits of Alt. Med on animals

    Ok, my wife informed me that the paper is actually on Alt. Med on animals, not just homeopathy. She has the common misconception that homeopathy is synonymous with alternative medicine. Anyway, now I guess the scope of the paper changes to a wider spectrum. Anyone know of alt med studies on...

    A Confession... med. professionals please read

    Alt med show

    Okay, alternative medicine gets on my nerves (actually, it doesn't - it's ◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊, and it works mostly in the mind). But it was last week that it finally hit me. The altmed crowd are coming to my local town. My old school are going to be hosting an alternative medicine exhibition - a...
