Facts versus opinions
There is a subtle writing issue that will help you write in a more neutral way about this topic. There is a difference between these two statements:


 * 1) This program tries to identify successful applications of CAM therapies with anti-cancer effects.
 * 2) This program identifies successful applications of CAM therapies with anti-cancer effects.

The first is an unambiguous and uncontroversial statement about the aim of the organisation, this could be referenced to the organisations' website. The second is a statement about the achievements of the organisation: this would require successful clinical trials of the identified therapies that unambiguously demonstrated that they were effective. Even then, this might still be an controversial issue! Tim Vickers (talk) 18:17, 1 September 2009 (UTC)
