User:Tiger970

The purpose of tiger970 is to present information concerning alternative medicine remedies and treatment. Unfortunately, the system by which remedies and treatments are authenticated via United States Food and Drug Administration standards as well as in many other countries counterpart to the FDA, there is a lack of funding to meet the requirements of the system. A common criticism of alternative medicine is that meaningful research has not been conducted to verify the efficacy of many different remedies and treatments, but this rings hollow because the only real source of funding for medical research is the private sector. The only way funding will shift to medical research about alternative medicine is if there is something that can be patented. Much of what is used in alternative medicine is not patentable because the types of products used in alternative medicine are taken from botanical sources or are composed of various nutrients that are not patentable. Occasionally, what would be considered to be an alternative remedy, treatment or diagnostic approach has been patented but sill does not receive the funding necessary to gain government approval for disease claims.

Some areas of alternative medicine that can be portrayed more accurately on wikipedia involve Aloe Vera glyconutrients and vibrational/energy medicine. Over time various articles will be posted by tiger970.
