    There is no "alternative treatment" for breast cancer—or any other cancer. There are only three kinds of medicine: Medicine scientifically shown to work, medicine not shown to work, and medicine shown not to work. Alternative medicine falls into one of the last two categories. https://twitter.com/UtahMamah/status/960556709046468608 …

        Why are you retweeting a blatantly obvious #FalseCause fallacy?

        The irony here is that it can be demonstrated that often the best "medicine" is NO medicine. I got off like 7 "scientific medicines" just by changing my diet. All the meds were doing was treating the symptoms, not the cause.

        What makes a medicine "alternative" or not is its status in the medical profession which doesn't always correlate with its state of evidence, unfortunately.
