Gee, you sound awfully angry. I'm sorry for that.
The first thing I recommended, and I'll quote myself here....

"Before vitamins and herbs, he should be looking at diet changes.
Foods play a major part in the prevention of heart disease."

In your opinion, is a proper diet "alternative medicine"? Where do you get "figment of someone's imagination" from? MD's are teaching people proper heart care, which number one is diet changes and nutrition.

After a heart attack? Just leave it alone? Ignore it and it will go away?
Ignore your teeth and they'll certainly go away. Ignore your cancer, it'll just spread.......

And I can also give titles of many different books, too........

You are certainly entitled to your opinion, and it's okay to have one.
Just so know...I have 11 years behind me in the conventional Nursing field, am certified in Nutrition and Internal Body Wellness, and am working towards my PhD in Natural Health. I don't discredit conventional medicine at all. I do, however, believe people should learn, research, and gain knowledge for themselves. There health decisions should be up to them whether they choose alternative medicine, conventional medicine, or a combination of both.

I guess I'm not sure what you are complaining about. What alternative medicine did I post about? Diet change? Vitamins? Giving Christy the definition in layman's terms for chelation on minerals? How did I offend you? I was writing in response to Christy's questions. She was grateful for the help. Helping others and teaching them is my goal. What they choose to do with it is their business.
I guess you don't have to read the posts if you don't like what they contain. I'm sure you have a "delete" button or a "mark as read" button to click and ignore. Just my opinion.....
