Alternative medicine is a broad category of treatments that range from (1) the largely innocent (i.e. nutritional supplements, herbal remedies, diet changes, avoiding certain chemicals, etc) to (2) the pseudo-scientific (i.e. homeopathic remedies) to (3) the spiritually compromising (i.e. treatments based largely on eastern religions).
So what would you gather is the Christian approach to alternative medicine? Does 1 Corinthians 8 come into play at all (or are there other applicable verses that you can think of)? Have you had any encounters with the alternative medicine market? Is there anything you think should be forbidden, is merely a matter of conscious, or is completely acceptable?
