    Given how most ancient Greek myths end, I might just give those a miss!

    Odd journal that one, there's a mix of what looks like good quality content and a few bits of what could be amazing snake oil. I don't have full access though (only to the abstracts) so the papers might well be showing that the alternative medicine techniques have little to no effect and are being published as a warning because huge parts of the world still rely on that type of medicine. In a paper, to be able to rubbish a claim you need evidence or good reasons. I guess those papers will provide that.
