most medicines are synthesized from naturally occuring plants, and most original medicine before the 1920s was what we refer to today as "alternative medicine". And a lot of it is hit and miss.

While some or the herbal remedies and 'alternative' medicine does have a deep background of science and study behind it; a lot of this new shit sucks and isn't based in science at all.

What I'm referring to is the wide field of study and research and herbal medical science that was abandoned in western medicine with the emergence of the study of synthetic medicines. A drug is a drug, if it comes from Pfizer or if it comes from a bush in your backyard. I'm not saying that we should embrace everything that is 'alternative' or 'herbal' medicine, but seriously regard the science that is behind it as a serious study. That's all. Drug companies don't have a monopoly on science, even it seems so with all these parrots repeating the same spiel over and over again because it's proper scientific manners.

God damn, she's one of these fucking con people who run shit like pyramid schemes dazzling people with scientific terms. Even though I have some faith in magic and the paranormal, this woman doesn't even know what she's talking about.

Science is a serious undertaking that requires laborious study. If you can't put that type of grit into your work, even if you are studying magic, you should never expect to be taken seriously. You can't just spend two hours skimming the basics of what Einstein and Hawking are all about.

Yes, it's so much better to make a product that does nothing other than enrich yourself with money from sick people who can't afford to get treated with real medicine and your water at the same time. After all, if you do nothing, you aren't actively killing people - just passively killing them by con artistry. I don't care if you believe in it - you're a con man, and should feel bad.

Homeopathy may have once, emphasis on once to make it clear it's completely pseudo-scientific nowadays, had a basis in a possible cure for allergies whereby the sufferer was given tiny doses of the substance they are allergic to, too little to give them a serious reaction, which is then increased very slightly every day for a year.
