Complementary and alternative medicine (CAM) is the term for medical products and practices that are not part of standard care. Standard care is what medical doctors, doctors of osteopathy and allied health professionals, such as registered nurses and physical therapists, practice. Alternative medicine means treatments that you use instead of standard ones. Complementary medicine means nonstandard treatments that you use along with standard ones.

Pesticides Increase a Farmer's Cancer Risks Too
No surprise, based on new findings from the government-sponsored Agricultural Health Study, day-to-day exposure to diazinon increased a farmer's risk of lung cancer, even when the results were adjusted for smoking.
Don't expect those numbers to improve anytime soon either, considering U.S. farmers treated their crops with 4 million pounds of diazinon last year.
So, if pesticides are hurting the people who grow the foods you buy in the grocery store, have you given any thought lately about what those harmful chemicals, as well as other toxins may be doing to your health?
