A big part of the Power Of Medicine is that if you know it will work it's more likely to work than if you know it won't work.
My mom (almost 92) knows that only Bayer Asprin work. Another brand, or a generic won't have any effect.
Accupuncture, homeopathy, chiropractic (for curing cancer, etc.) , or honey, or silver, or "cleansing" may or may not work for a person....awesome. But it may be belief, as opposed to an actual mechanism, that makes it effective.
Feel free to get yourseld bled if it cures what ails you - but keep your fleams off of my veins. My humors are fine.
To the "local honey" proponentes - what is the theory behind "local" (and what defines local) being better than from other places?
