How To Use NatMed Pro (previously called Natural Medicines)

Answer

All About

What You Can Expect To Find Here: "Natural Medicines relies on a solid evidence-based foundation. Each product monograph in the Database and its associated Safety Ratings, Effectiveness Ratings, and Interaction Ratings are supported by the best available scientific evidence. This evidence is systematically identified, critically evaluated, and applied using the same high standards used to evaluate evidence related to other therapies. We do not believe that there should be different standards of evidence for conventional therapies compared to alternative therapies. Therefore, we do not consider anecdote, tradition or folklore to be scientific 'evidence.'"
