<raises eyebrow> Actually, Kevin, 'alternative medicine' is _not_ just garbage; some of the herbs/plant products _do_ have health/medical benefits and uses. People seem to forget that many of our current drugs are derived from plants or microbes (aspirin and penicillin, frex). The problem with many herbal/alternative products is lack of decent research; frex there is some evidence that glucosamine is helpful for arthritis, but the 'studies' re: chondroitin are very poorly done.
