Medicina Alternativa
On this essay, I will talk about the alternative medicine, usage, classification, criticism, and efficacy. On the following pages I will talk broadly about these points. We know that the word: ‘‘Alternative Medicine’’ has the word medicine so, since that statement here are some questions…
Do tablets or pills come from alternative medicine?Or
Are alternative medicines effective to the people?
... To answer these questions we will need to see the following pages…
Alternative medicine
The alternative medicine is part of the medicine that uses the natural plants, traditional remedies, methods and special techniques, to heal the peoples´ diseases, illness, or injuries.
The alternative medicine is like ‘‘another option’’ ofconsuming medicine in this case natural plants or traditional remedies. A great part of the people that consumes these natural medicines are from little towns or villages. The alternative medicine is not a new branch of medicine, however is the opposite of new is old why? because we can see on history that on the past people didn’t know too much about medicine, but they used some plants to healpeople.
The alternative medicine is known also as the natural medicine, specifically because the alternative medicine is based on natural plants. The same word describes what is the alternative medicine, the word alternative which meaning is: to find something other.

Also the alternative medicine warns the people about a disease that can be contracted, but the conventional produces the pills to fight back the disease. The two main types of medicine are the conventional and the alternative, the complementary is associated to the conventional, and the integrative is the joining of the conventional and the alternative medicine .
Clasification
