Traditional Chinese Medicine is thousands of years old and takes into account the entire person: physical, emotional, psychological, etheric, spiritual. Western medicine treats symptoms - the goal is never to cure. Big Pharma funds medical schools and writes the curricula; medical students learn nothing about the whole person, nothing about nutrition or emotional wellbeing; basically, they learn to pedal drugs. There is also a homeopathic physician in France who, with homeopathics, has reversed stroke 100% in 100% of patients. Thanks for sharing your uncle's experience.
