VS CONVENTIONAL MEDICINE. COMPLEMENTARY MEDICINE 
are many terms used to describe approaches to health care beyond the realm of conventional medicine. The doctors who practice medicine (MD), doctor of osteopathy (DO) and allied health professionals such as physiotherapists, psychologists and nurses. complementary and alternative medicine is a diverse set of systems, practices, and medical and health care that is not currently considered part of conventional medicine. Conventional medicine is medicine as practiced by holders of MD (medical doctor) or DO (doctor of osteopathy) degrees and their allied health professionals such as physiotherapists, psychologists and nurses. Some practitioners of conventional medicine professionals are also complementary and alternative medicine. While there are some compelling scientific data on some therapies Complementary and alternative medicine in general are key questions that remain to be answered through well-designed scientific studies-questions such as safety and efficacy of these drugs in relation to disease conditions for which they are used.
Is complementary medicine an effective alternative to such an extent that can compete on an equal footing with conventional medicine? This is a question that many extremists respond with a resounding NO, while others thoughtlessly, would conclude with a yes to dry that would only prolong the debate without valid arguments. The basic conclusion to that reached in the middle of this debate is: scientific studies are needed. This real and concrete can not be accompanied by a discussion without argument or really abstract in every sense and more to contribute, subtract, in a ridiculous competition between conventional and alternative medicine does not lead to any fruition.
The truth is that if they fail to support scientific arguments that conventional medicine works better with the alternative against the alternative (and vice versa) the debate will not come to any conclusions accurate and complete. But why scientific studies are lacking?
The biggest problem is that herbs are not patentable, and therefore there is a lack of institutions willing to finance projects, which usually leave the initiative of universities and public bodies, which, of course , slows things. The way forward is to approach this debate with the premise that both types of medicines can work hand in hand and a good way. Only then can institutions be made to understand that betting on a scientific development of alternative medicine not only serves this type of medicine in itself, but also to the conventional. This is the only way to understand what is necessary is that both drugs compete, but work as a team.
biological therapies in CAM use substances found in nature, such as herbs, foods and vitamins. Some examples include the use of dietary supplements, the use of herbal products and other therapies using so-called "natural", although not yet proven from scientific point of view (eg, the use of shark cartilage cancer treatment).
Some applications Dietary supplements have been incorporated into conventional medicine. For example, scientists have discovered that folic acid prevents certain birth defects and a regimen of vitamins and zinc can slow the progression of eye disease called macular degeneration associated with age. The truth is that one should not exclude the other. Ms. Carmela
