    Traditional Chinese medicine doesn't even work in China. So why would anyone think it'll work elsewhere other than to separate gullible non-Chinese from their cash?😏https://twitter.com/frank_kooy/status/1090219622312353792 …

        Replying to @gorskon

        Nope, it's because "..they already know some basic concepts of how [TCM] it works; drinking hot water being a good example. On the contrary, it is a common opinion amongst the Chinese that westerners drink icy-cold drinks too often..." This is what I call irrefutable evidence!!

        If water can have memory why can’t an acupuncture needle know when it’s crossed the Chinese border and just stop working properly? 😂
