Acupuncture: Alternative medicine

Alternative medicine is medicine that hasn’t been proven to work.

50 Years Ago, This Was a Wasteland. He Changed Everything

Almost 50 years ago, fried chicken tycoon David Bamberger used his fortune to purchase 5,500 acres of overgrazed land in the Texas Hill Country. Planting grasses to soak in rains and fill hillside aquifers, Bamberger devoted the rest of his life to restoring the degraded landscape. Today, the land has been restored to its original habitat and boasts enormous biodiversity. Bamberger's model of land stewardship is now being replicated across the region and he is considered to be a visionary in land management and water conservation.

While religions are the oldest institutions in the world, they are the slowest to respond to modern issues such as drugs, homosexuality and changing family relationships. As we move into the second decade of the 21st century, it is important to re-examine the place religion holds in the world today.

Wes Hobson on alternative medicine and treatment

I got at blood test, which turned up normal with the exception of high iron content. I aslo saw two Chinese medicine specialists and one internist, had a massage once a week and acupuncture three times. I tried herbal teas, vitamin supplements, and pure magnesium for better absorption into the cells. My state of fatique didn't change for six weeks.
