A question

because, we don't really know. and for those who claims that they know,
actually, they don't.

it works only in some case, alternative medicine might be as effective as
mainstream medicine, which only around 70% in success rate. which the same
rate as prognosis in acupuncture, i found it somewhere.

"Alternative medicine" cures all sorts of things that medicine cannot
cure, but doesn't seem to have an answer for any of those things which
medicine can cure.

Why?

Where?

Those numbers sound like they just came out of thing air.

Please document that the "alt" cures are effective.

Like what did you have in mind OP?

Can traditional medicine cure TB?
Can traditional medicine cure exzema?

I ask that question because I was recently reading part of an interview
with the appointed Homeopath to the Queen (Elizabeth II that is) & he
said that while he wouldn't use homeopathic remedies for tuburculosis,
he would use it for exzema. I thought that interesting.

BTW, my kid brother, when he was approximately 5 years old (in 1947-48)
at the time, was in a TB sanitarium in Pontiac, Michigan for over a
year. I guess they cured him (though I don't remember how, beyond rest,
though maybe "sulfa drugs" rings a bell) as his 63rd birthday is coming
up & he's in excellent health.
