Modern medicine is armed with cutting-edge science and developing day by day, then why the number of sick people is not decreasing?
We have serious increase of chronic diseases including cancer, diabetes, heart disease, and high blood pressure. In 2005 WHO (the World Health Organization) announced every year 35 million people are losing their lives due to chronic diseases, which represents 60% of all deaths. Chronic illnesses are the biggest illness of the modern people. A natural medicine is a wise method of proposing and practicing the method of making our body and environment healthy. In addition, among the treatment methods of traditional remedies, there are treatment methods which have cured the diseases given up by modern medicine. Each country has their best traditional medical practices. Although there are many people who were benefited from such traditional medical practices, there are no case reports on systematic researches. It is because they fall into an illegal treatment method within the medical laws of modern medicine. Seeing in the perspectives of the patients who are the actual medical consumers, a treatment method with less pain and cost must be reviewed. For those patients given up by the hospitals, a condition where they can attempt other treatment methods besides the modern medicine should be provided. Whether it is modern medicine or alternative medicine is not important. What is really important to patients is the effectiveness of cure.
