Reminds me of the joke: What do you call alternative medicine that works? Medicine.

If any of the wild things posted in threads like these actually worked, those things just be considered standard care.

For sure, I have an example from my life even.

I've seen a well regarded specials for a neurological issue I am having. She knows everything I've learned over the years and all about emerging research and treatments.

Suggested supplements I already knew about and meds. Also, said nothing is a silver bullet.
