No I do understand that, my point was those good ND's should be going out of their way to condemn fellow ND's to step away from the unproven and bunk stuff they peddle.
But really, who can resist homeopathy, vials of water that sell for more by volume often than a bottle of perfume.
All I care about here is simplicity, if you make a claim back it up with evidence. If alternative medicine did this, I'd be its biggest cheerleader, but very little of that industry does; it thrives on gullibility and the negative view on modern drug companies.
Just go to a Chinese health shop and look at all the ridiculous powders and vials of things claiming to help with a gambit of problems. How many animals are killed to fullfill this nonsense without a shred of evidence.
If I felt something helped me and wanted others to benefit from it, I'd want it researched to find out exactly what it was doing. But you don't see the vast majority of alternative medicine doing any of this, in fact its the opposite they go out of their way to appeal to emotions and avoid the dirty little part about not having a shed of proof to back up the claims they make, be they small or bold ones.
