A has an evidence
B has no evidence
Integrating A+B and getting the result of A doesnt prove the working of B.
Integrative medicine is all about falsely proving -> B works.
Thats one of the tricks of pseudoscience like Ayush - Ayurveda, Homeopathy and all the CAM practices.
The Indian govt is pushing for combining Ayurveda (Ayush) and Scientific Medicine teaching in medical colleges across the country to promote Integrative Medicine
This comes after their successful integration of the best of ancient and modern technology in automobile industry
The government of India is blocking my posts on Instagram that criticizes Homeopathy based on a directive from the Homeopathy Council. This is very shameful of the government...protecting pseudoscience and it's practitioners from scientific scrutiny.

For the umpteenth time:
Vaccines work.
Chemtrails do not exist.
mRNA is in everything you eat.
Everything is made of chemicals.
Natural is not a synonym for safe.
It’s the dose that makes the poison.
Most internet health scares collapse the moment you learn basic chemistry.
@Capt_Biswadeep I don't about the latter part of your statement. This corrupted hell hole won't change. Useless boomer uncles in power positions needs to be changed first.
Im also thinking about this. Stop sending children to CBSE. Start looking at IB/Cambridge syllabus in Indian schools. If children want to opt for medical career, then UCAT/BMAT exams will help entry into good foreign universities. If anyone has experience in this switch, please discuss here. I have lost complete faith in this country and its pseudoscience infiltrated educational system.
The BJP Government in India has masterfully done this.
All the major central healthcare institutes now have department of "integrative medicine", which are made to beleive to be "better or upgraded" standards of care.
They are not.
Like what Prof. @EdzardErnst writes here. INTEGRATIVE MEDICINE is undeniably, an attempt to smuggle unproven treatments into healthcare.
And this can only happen through public healthcare systems or highly promoted private corporates (eg: Apollo Hospitals, Medanta etc.) For integrative medicine departments, patients are consumers and clients and commodities. A larger business opportunity.
The modern medicine community is not asking for integration. The public is not asking for integration. The patients are not asking for integration.
So who benefits from integrative medicine? Pseudoscience promoters, alternative medicine practitioners and political entities that back them. Integrative medicine helps utterly useless business practices such as Ayush survive into the future. Beware.
By rejecting vaccines, you put others in danger.
You reject decades of immunology, epidemiology, clinical trials, and real-world evidence involving billions of doses.
You promote the idea that every hospital, university, regulator, and doctor on Earth is part of one giant conspiracy — while viruses, measles, polio, and whooping cough quietly come back.
Vaccines are not perfect.
But pretending infectious diseases disappeared on their own is historically illiterate.
Modern medicine dramatically increased human life expectancy.
The real danger is turning public health into a conspiracy theory.
The most dangerous virus right now isn’t biological.
It’s the belief that expertise itself is oppression.
So when science tries to reduce suffering or prevent deaths, people call it tyranny.
A society that treats public health as the enemy stops protecting itself from reality.
The Minister of Education Mr. Dharmendra Pradhan must resign not only because he screwed up the National Testing agency's credibility by allowing the medical entrance exam papers to get leaked and destroying the future of 2200000 young women and mens careers...
...but also for manipulating The National Council of Educational Research and Training (NCERT) to create utterly nonsensical chapters on pseudoscience such as Ayurveda that will be taught to students in higher schools. They are made to forget science and rationalism and taught rubbish such as vata, pita, kapha for disease diagnosis and management.
Further, they have also strategically placed parts in the chapter which makes it look like learning "science" is anti-National (because the British destroyed Ayurveda) and embracing primitive traditions and dmbfckry of the highest order such as ancient Ayurvedic knowledge will make them successful nationalists.
These guys ruining our country by creating obstacles to progressing with science and ridiculing rationalism, and damaging critical thinking skills among our children must be booted out.
No increase in cancer risk following mRNA Covid vaccines in large data sets from Norway 🇳🇴 and Sweden 🇸🇪
They don't cause cancer
It's a myth invented by anti vaxxers to scare you off vaccines
Either RFK Jr is the only recorded person to develop the voice disorder spasmodic dysphonia after a flu shot
Or it's got nothing to do with the vaccine at all and he has made it up because it suits his anti vaccine agenda
I think l can guess which it is....
Got my copy after a long wait, excited to finally dive into this book by @theliverdoc.
Looking forward to the science, patient stories, history, myth-busting, and honest take on medical ethics around the body’s most fascinating and regenerative organ — the Liver.
Thanks Doc! ✨
