Alopathic vs homeopathic is a serious issue that needs looking into, do we treat the symptom or the whole body?

My body is comprised of many different organisims working together as a whole, no wonder when we take any medicine it has side effects, we are all connected.

Some say homopathic is psychosomatic in its working, by medicine uses placebos and those work.

This is confusing for poor old totty and she was told to use homeopathic by a massage person for her to stop getting repeated colds.

Chinese medicine too, teas, ginsing are very expensive and my dad took them for weeks and they have not worked at all.

I cannot understand the resistance, even vitamin pills are according to some a waste of time too.

So should I take homeopathic medicine or not?

I usually never take any kind of medicine, even if I have a headache, or unless I'm extremely sick. Although I hardly ever get sick.

I take a mixture of natural remedies and pharmaceuticals. In the end it depends on what your condition is and how you feel about using pharmaceuticals. I strongly believe that people are taking way too many drugs these days, especially for things they don't even need drugs for. But if you have a more serious condition that does require medicine, then by all means, take it.

Wherever possible, I use a natural cure. For example, there is no denying that cranberry juice helps clear up a UTI and improves bladder health. So instead of taking antibiotics I'd prefer to take cranberry extract or cranberry juice, since it definitely works for me. Same goes for a headache, common cold, pain, and stuff like that. I'd prefer to just drink fluids, or a soothing herbal tea, take a hot bath, and get enough rest - as opposed to filling my body with unnecessary drugs.
