  1. Before giving "National Center for Complementary and Alternative Medicine"
    (cam) it's "scientific" stripes, the below should be considered in light
    of:

    Problems with "CAM" Peer Review and Accreditation

    http://www.quackwatch.org/04ConsumerEducation/peer.html

    And quackwatch search results for "Complementary and Alternative
    Medicine":

    National Center for Complementary and Alternative Medicine (NCCAM)
    http://nccam.nih.gov/
    NCCAM is dedicated to exploring complementary and alternative healing
    practices in the context of rigorous science, training researchers,
    and disseminating ...

    Why don't you try educating yourself, once every 30 years?

    Unlike Quackwatch the National Center for Complementary and

    unworthy of credibility" in the opinion of the Appeal Court of
    California.

    His opinion is not relevant, the quality of the references and the picture

    Do tell us what percent of conventional medicine is
    scientifically proven??


    Actually, none, as science is not about proof it is about evidence, as
    any introductory text book on the philosophy of science will tell you.

    And, I thought that medicine was about talking out of both sides of your mouth?

    Ha, ... Hah, Ha! What a rube.

    Why don't you try the real world, Peter?
