Okay, today we're contrasting and comparing some of these terms referring to different types of medicine, different types of treatments.
00:14
So, here we go.
00:23
So i thought it started us off with alternative and regular.
00:29
So alternative really just means anything that's kind of non -main, any medical therapy outside the bounds of orthodox medical therapy.
00:44
And then regular, you can also say it's conventional, provided by someone with a degree in their field.
00:53
Someone who had to go get a degree.
00:58
Okay.
01:02
And then we could contrast conventional or regular with unconventional.
01:06
Medical practices that are not in conformity with the standards of the medical industry.
01:14
And up here we now have traditional.
01:18
Now this is a little tricky.
01:20
Sometimes when you read traditional medicine, it might be referring to conventional, but there's also a definition of traditional medicine, which means something else.
01:34
All the knowledge, skill, and practice based on the theories, beliefs, and experiences, indigenous to different cultures.
01:43
I don't know how great of an example that says, but this kind of gets there.
01:50
My grandma, one of her recommendations when you were sick was to make you chicken soup from scratch.
02:00
And, you know, she didn't have a degree in medicine or anything.
02:03
It was just based on her experience, we're raising lots of kids.
02:07
Fresh made chicken soup helped you get better when you had a cold...
