I thought I addressed this in my earlier post:

Quote:
Yes, regular MDs in a way are "selling something" too, every time your doctor suggests a remedy to you or writes a prescription for you. That doctor is hoping that you will follow the advice he/she gives or take the rx prescribed. It's entirely up to you, and yes, you're still in a marketplace even in a mainstream doctor's office or clinic.

But at least you're in a community where there are some standards that they have to live up to, with policing agencies overseeing those standards and whether people are complying with them. There's very little oversight in the world of alternative medicine, unfortunately, and there is a lot of marketing of products that are worthless or even dangerous out there.
