Having seen an old thread where people vehemently attacked alternative medicine a quackery, I'm wondering if I should mention it in all those how are you diverse essays.
First off, I believe in the scientific method and scientific and expirmental basis of allopathic medicine. I am not attack an MDs or DO's out there (the same cannot be said the other way around). I have background in research and hard sciences. Moreover, I believe the value of CAMs should be determined through empirical research, which believe will find that some of the more established ones, such as TCM, are of benefit.
With that said, is it a good idea to mention that CAM exposure gives me a unique prespective of allopathic medicine, and that I blieve with proper research and study that CAM theories and practices can be reconciled with traditional allopathic practices?
