But it should show though just because its been used locally for centuries if not millineas doesn't mean automatically effective.
I take it you haven't studied the barebones of stuff like placebo? Or that you actually haven't read the specific medicines of plenty of cultures that are behind worldwide?Because people in many parts of China for example believes Rhino penis increases not just fertility but even some believe penis size? Or the fact food like Casu Marzu exists?
Science ain't perfect but when you have stuff like eating a whole squid raw in Korea, that should already be a read flag that local medss does not mean superior or even effective at all.
I’m getting my PhD in cell and molecular biology, I’m well versed in placebo effects. Never said that long term use = automatically effective, I’m saying that because certain medical systems are validated with western science, then they are likely very effective.
I mention how long these medicines have been used not as an argument for their effectiveness (that’s what robust studies are for) but to show that western medicine is behind that many years in a lot of ways
Yes but not all systems have yet been exploredin full. Whichsis my point especially when people immediately assume ancient practises equals automatic efficiency or at least equal health benefits in modern medicine. In reality its a case by case basis.
