    alternative medicines and treatment instead of visiting their usual doctor.


    Do you think this is a positive or negative development ?

    More and more people with health issues are now choosing alternative remedies and
    therapies rather than conventional treatment recommended by their physicians. This essay
    will point out the overwhelmingly negative development of this phenomenon.
    On the one hand, non-mainstream medicines and treatments also bring certain positive
    advances. Admittedly, People can save money and time from medical institutions. For
    instance, herbal medicines would be much more affordable, compared with the costly
    therapies in the government hospitals. Moreover, patients have to take turns queuing to get
    diagnosed in the hospitals which is satisfied by alternative treatment such as acupuncture
    and aromatherapy.
    On the other hand, non-mainstream medicines and treatments pose negative
    development. Firstly, it leads to health-related dangers which are unsafe for people. Certain
    vitamins and minerals, according to several medical experts, are reported to raise the risk of
    cancer or other illnesses, especially if huge medicines are taken. Secondly, alternative
    therapies would have late diagnosis of serious diseases. To illustrate, people with symptoms
    such as cancer or tumor that need to be relieved immediately, might not be cured fast and
    scientifically by alternative medicines and treatment. Last but not least, if people opt for non-
    mainstream remedies, graduating in the medical field would be unemployment.
    In conclusion, despite the fact that alternative medicines offer several benefits in limited
    ways, i generally believe that the tendency towards such non-standard ways way of
    treatment has been changed for the worse.
