Modern quackery. Proof that there's always a sucker born every minute.
Alternatve medicine? Since when did amanita toadstools and belladonna supplements become therapeutic?

Alternative Medicine 

Medicines or treatments that can used separately from other treatments. In the case of PTSD, an example of an alternative treatment could be Adaptive Disclosure, where different treatments are implemented based on the type of trauma.
As the patient was strongly opposed to man made medications, we suggested the use of an alternative medicine, herbal supplements that had proven to have a similar effect.

Don't allow Big Pharma to trick you into hormone replacement therapy - cure yourself with alternative medicine instead. There's literally nothing that can't be fixed by a chiropractor.

alternative medicine 

Stuff that is not medicine, and has no medicinal properties, but conspiracy theorists and other dumbasses insist is the REAL medicine, because the entire healthcare field is a sham, or something, and the knowledge of people from 500-1000 years ago when they didn't even have toilets is superior to modern science.
Don't listen to those Big Pharma quacks telling you to get radiation treatment for your cancer, here, drink this soup of tree bark and lemongrass, it's alternative medicine.

Complementary and Alternative medicine (CAM)

The term Complementary and Alternative medicine, simply describes any medical practice or product that is not included in the western worlds definition of standard care.
The 2007 National Health Survey, which included a comprehensive survey of CAM use by americans, showed that approximately 38 percent of adults use Complementary and Alternative medicine (CAM)
The word 'flag' as pronounced by people with thick Belfast accents. The term is a perfect encapsulation of the disproportionate and overblown reaction to the removal of the Union Jack (as in 'de fleg') from above City Hall in Belfast. Where previously it had flown for 365 days per year, it is now flown on 17 designated days of the year - in line with many other British cities.

The event caused a portion of the Protestant community ('fleggers') to make international pricks of themselves as they proceeded to wreck the fucking place, claiming it was another erosion of a 'British' identity they perceive to have been under attack since the horrifying spectre of equality reared its head in Northern Ireland.

The word 'fleg' - and indeed 'fleggers' - fittingly describes a section of humanity unconcerned with knowledge, reality or the vagaries of the English language. Like America's tea-baggers they are ruled by instinct, fear and paranoia with a side dish of rampant bigotry and startling ignorance of the world around them.
"Wat de fuck like! The taigs got de fleg took down! Let's wreck de fuckin place! No surrender!"

"De fleg has been took down! Before ye know it there'll be a united Ireland! Attack Short Strand! God Save The Queen!"
