In the understanding of Western medicine, the term medicine includes both conventional medicine and alternative medicine. Conventional medicine or conventional medicine is a medical practice that follows the scientific method and is most commonly practiced by licensed physicians.
Conventional medicine relies on evidence-based interventions and uses the latest technological and scientific findings. Modern diagnostics can be used to detect, treat, and even prevent diseases. Alternative medicine, on the other hand, is a group of different medical and health concepts, practices and products that are not part of conventional medicine. The word “alternative” can be misleading, as the treatments can be either effective or ineffective compared to the treatments used by “conventional” doctors.
The transition between conventional medicine and alternative medicine is fluid today, as many orthodox physicians have adapted to demand and offer homeopathic treatments. Today, health insurance companies also reimburse certain therapies and remedies of alternative medicine if they are prescribed by a doctor.
In recent years, the proportion of medical prevention in the medical field has increased significantly. Unfortunately, this also has to do with the fact that a lot of money can be earned with the treatment of possible diseases. Because the market for the fight against potential (perhaps later) diseases is much larger than the market for the treatment of real diseases. A healthy lifestyle is the best way to prevent disease.
