Curtis Josef: No. It's just seudo science in a fancy coat with matching pants. Apply reason and logic to it, and it dissolves like sugar in water. More accurately, it's religion in a white lab jacket.http://quackwatch.com/Happy reading....Show more

Providencia Jalbert: It depends on what you need it for. I have used the esstianal oils and those work for me. i have a friend that was having some pain on her side, she put some of the oils on it and it turned red. she went to the doctor and she had some kidney stones. i guess you need to try it for yourself and see what you think.

Ronald Moehr: Any suggestions appreciated, - it's been a problem all year!

L! on Pennington: oh yes! My wife went to a naturopath after seeing both doctors and specialists, and he did a 2 hour Q and A with her, said her liver was damaged from having mono as a kid, and told her how to take vineger to help. And it did! I had a bad elbow, and motrin for months did not help, so I started on a juice called Xango, which has anti-inflamatories, and within 10 days, I am good to go. And, as a bonus, I did not have hay fever for the first time in twenty years, and I think it was cause of the juice. Pharmasuedical (sp? ) companies make huge money, and they get their biggest sales from doctors writing out prescriptions. The pharm companies encourage MDs to sell their stuff. But more and more MDs are looking to natural stuff. My wife's doc is actually getting deeply into eastern medicne as a study, and accupuncture....Show more

Clementina Collelo: Yes they most definitely do, But because of peoples lack of knowledge on what herbs and oils to use for what part of the body that needs repairing they need guidance. And another thing is that most people are use to man made meds. and the quick effect they get, where alternative healing takes time and the benefits are a long term reward..

Barrett Zhen! g: Yeah it gave my mum a panic attack! LOLI'm not entirely sure how it ! works so I can't be for or agisnt it really ut i won't be touching it.

Helen Zafar: pineapple is good

Joie Kemmis: Has anyone heard about or does anyone know about the P90X workout that I see on tv? I'm skeptical of a scam?!

Ricky Frazer: Yes it works ,that's why these are getting popular day by day,especially homoeopathy.It is not psuedo science If it is the placebo effect that cures most of the terminal disorders then ,why the followers of modern medicines were giving a lot of dangerous drugs for these conditions instead of any placebo?

Freeman Rutkin: it does...since most of the medicines found in drug store are made up of different herbs extracts...and if you will also notice animals found in the forest uses herbs to cure their sickness...it is a natural way of healing for them....likewise also for us humans..if you want to be healthy try eating a lot of fresh veg. and fruits ....

Chanda Wittwer: Yes, For the past 3 years I have suffered ! with asthma. Every night and morning I wake up needing my inhaler. I started taking VIDACELL when a friend suggested I give it a try. The very first night I used VIDACELL, I slept straight through the night and awoke without trying to catch my breath. I have now been taking VIDACELL for 10 days, and I haven't used my inhaler once.more infowww.GreatLifeIntl.com/adelailitzky...Show more

Lissette Semon: Sometimes yes and some times no. But that is the case for western medicine as well. Alternative medicines also tend to focus on general health more than specific issues. The thought being that - if your in good health then you are less likely to need to deal with a specific illness. One of the many alternative medicine categories is Aromatherapy.

Rhett Kaines: yes ! heard of it bought it and love it. well its not a scam BUT your not go! ing to RIPPED in 90 days if you are 500 lbs. it a workout routine not a miracle or LIFO suction. also your not going to get ripped by doing the workouts and eating cheese burgers and french fries everyday of the week. i would have to agree with one of the previous answers to the question that YES it is pretty intense workouts and good luck with soreness your going to experience after a few days but hey that part of the game right...Show more

Donovan Stallons: reduce or avoid altogether:- dairy, wheat, sugar and refined foodseating a radish a day helps get rid of excess mucous toothere are various herbs and foods good for drying up excess mucous too but you would need to see a professional as they would give you things specific to you.Homeopathy is a good alternative therapy but use a qualified homeopath - (ive just started training and there is so much to learn!)...Show more

Ignacio Imbier: anything that tells you that you can get ripped within 90 days is a sc! am unless you are in amazing shape yourself. try downloading the videos from torrents or limewire or shareaza or something for free so u can try them out beforehand. remember, with any workout tape like the P90X - they always put you on a low cal, low carb, low fat diet... best of luck:)

Edwina Fu: Yes it obviously works. My personal Experience. I am particularly saying about homeopathic medicines.

Filiberto Ranalli: Sometimes yes, I think a person needs to keep an open mind and use whatever works. If you have a problem that many have had use the standard treatment such as strep throat take the antibiotic but some things just don't respond to normal treatment so there is plenty of room for alternative meds. Good Luck -k-

Curt Broadhead: Yes Absolutely I am 57 and living testimony. Healthy, happy and active! Ask around for a good Naturopathic Doctor. Presciption drugs are toxic to the human body, and should only be used in an extreme emergency .

De! xter Dicostanzo: Oh Sean…it’s EXTREME!First of all, they give you a! full DVD on how to get the most of the workouts. The trainer, Tony Horton, gets serious, and gives you serious motivation to get the change in your body you are looking for. Then, they give you a whopping TWELVE DVDs. That’s twelve hour-long workouts! These guys are nuts! Not only are they twelve workouts, but also if you are not in shape like a professional athlete, you WILL NOT be able to finish the workouts. I’m serious, and so are the workouts. Their strength workouts are based on circuit type training. The strength workout DVDs are: chest and back; shoulders, triceps, bicep; back and legs; chest, shoulder, triceps; back and biceps and finally the “Ab Ripper X”, as they like to call it. Each one starts with a warm up and stretch, and each one has a cool down period…so you are completely done in 1 hour.About the P90X nutrition plan, they give you meal plans, down to the last calorie, carbohydrate and protein, so that you know EXACTLY what is going on in your b! ody.Jason Homan...Show more
