Wow, I take offense to that extreme statement, that's just your ignorance and prejudice then.
Now I go back and read my post again, I do see that it is a little extreme. I apologize for that.
However, to be honest, I snapped because I was a little offended by the statement that Chinese medicine is "scientifically proven". As a scientist myself, I fight everyday to maintain a good scientific integrity, unbiased investigation with well-designed controls. I went through close to a decade of formal training (PhD and postdoctoral fellowship) to learn various ways to minimize bias in my research. Chinese medicine, to be honest, is the exact opposite of everything science stands for. I don't hate Chinese medicine but am immensely annoyed by it. Many ways Chinese medicine doctors use to convince people of their legitimacy are the same methods used by con artists to scam people.
Even experts of Chinese medicine try to separate Chinese medicine from science. Many even argue that Chinese medicine predates science...
