Medical Forum / General / General / May 2006Systems of medicine explained: Conventional, alternative, integrative, complementary and more
http://www.newstarget.com/019365.html By Mike Adams Monday, May 01, 2006 Excerpts: What's the deal with all the different systems of medicine? And what's the difference between "Western medicine" and "conventional medicine?" Here, you'll find some honest answers. "Conventional medicine" refers to the classic medical training offered through mainstream medical schools. This is a drugs-and-surgery approach to medicine that largely excludes nutrition, wellness, mind-body medicine, patient education, and other natural therapies. "Organized medicine" refers to the collection of organizations that promote conventional medicine. This encompasses pharmaceutical companies, the FDA, hospitals, doctors, medical schools, and medical organizations such as the American Medical Association as well as disease organizations like the American Cancer Society and the American Diabetes Association. It's called organized medicine because it is an organized system of profit-minded players who engage in the marketing, screening, diagnosis and treatment of diseases, all under the watchful eye of the FDA, using tactics that resemble organized crime. "Advanced medicine" refers to the future of medicine, based on supporting the patient's health and wellness rather than attacking the patient with various chemicals or procedures like radiation and surgery. Advanced medicine is the first step to the new age of understanding about the true underlying causes of health and wellness. Advanced medicine makes conventional medicine and Western medicine obsolete, and it includes therapies like phototherapy, sunlight, nutrition, sound therapy, vibrational medicine, electromedicine, mind-body medicine, energy healing, and other similar modalities that were once considered experimental, but are now well-known to be both safe and effective at supporting the health of the patient.

Mark Probert That is not what I said in my comments regarding this opinion piece. You snipped them without mentioning them. Here is what I said: Not correct. Many evidence based medicine doctors do provide serious nutrition counsellings. My internist does. Anecdotes are bullshit when someone is trying to prove a scientific point. However, when the discussion is of social issues, as is the case here, anecdotes are completely valid. >>> "Organized medicine" refers to the collection of organizations that >>> promote conventional medicine.

This post is clearly within the parameters of "live and let live" as I am discussing issues, not the person who posted them. Further, discussing the person who wrote the article is also within the parameters of "live and let live". >>> "Advanced medicine" refers to the future of medicine, based on supporting >>> the patient's health and wellness rather than attacking the patient with [quoted text clipped - 13 lines] > I regret having to point out that this post is not in the spirit of > 'live and let live.'

Wow! My doctors must have been away the day they didn't learn about nutrition and patient education. I must read on. Will more bullshit follow? >"Organized medicine" refers to the collection of organizations that promote >conventional medicine.

Why, yes it does. >"Advanced medicine" refers to the future of medicine, based on supporting >the patient's health and wellness rather than attacking the patient with [quoted text clipped - 7 lines] >well-known to be both safe and effective at supporting the health of the >patient. And there is more! Who would have thought that "Advanced medicine" would almost exclusively consist of ancient crap that has been proved ineffective many times over not just years but decades and even centuries? Who would think that the "future of medicine" is identical to "the history of medicine"? I don't see "taking the waters" and "adjusting the humours" in the list. Oversights, I'm sure.

Peter never agreed to that, and furthermore, this post is clearly within the parameters of "live and let live" as I am discussing issues, not the person who posted them.
