Everything inter-relates <A. Einstein and/or me>.

The (some of) Europeans are manifestly emphasizing herbs rather than
what is generally porescribed in the USA.

My humble pov/perspective:

Medicine is also an art, a business, a model(s), a category and
whatever else complex phenomena.

I myself take many herbs along with conventional prescription drugs,
and my degree is in the "social sciences" of which I'll argue are also
"social studies."

I hereby also concede there are perils in doing both (consuming herbs
AND prescriptions simultaneously), neither, or one or the other.

For instance: I've noticed firsthand In treating Type II diabetes, I
can certainly "overly-treat" with cinnamon & "percolate" AND the
terrific Glyberide (a prescription drug for diabetes).

I'm a layman, and these are obviously only my layman perceptions which
I've chosen to post for myself as in layperson duiscussion.

Stephen is obviously a real medic, and I must respect such.

Of course: Anybody may post/comment in anyway s(he) deems.
