Illusion Dealers

Traditional medicine includes all traditional beliefs and practices which were used to diagnose and treat illnesses, especially in earlier times. Many of those practices had no merit or basis.

Moreover, they could also be responsible for other illnesses as well, instead of curing them. This is caused by the dangerous reactions that these unlicensed herbal medicines and other unlicensed practices cause which can lead to acute bleeding, poisoning and other life-threatening complications.

Alternative Medicine

 Alternative Medicine includes all practices that aim to heal without the use of modern medicine. These practices can differ between societies, but they collectively share the fact that they are not based on any scientific research or evidence.

 

Many depend on alternative medicine instead of modern medicine even though it is based on old, ancient healing experiences without any factual and scientific evidence. In many cases, people prefer using alternative medicine as the primary method of treatment.

Common Misconceptions About Alternative Medicine

  If it’s natural, it is safe

Many believe that if the medication was natural then it would be safe. This, of course, is false because many plants contain poisonous ingredients to the human body and some can cause permanent damage to the liver kidneys with frequent consumption.

In the case of pregnant and breastfeeding women, the risk is compounded since many of these ingredients are as dangerous as any other drugs and should not be consumed during pregnancy without the consultation of a doctor.

 

  Consumption of Herbs with Medications

It is quite common when patients consume herbs with their medications. However, this is dangerous because these herbs can react with the medications and either hinder or complicate the treatment.
