Is there like a course in medical school where they sit aspiring doctors down and tell them how to respond to proponents of herbal medicine? They all throw the same keywords around.

- Sentiments
- Baseless
- Quackery
- Kidney issues

Every single one of them.
None of them referred me to any studies that they themselves or someone they know have done concerning how herbal treatments relate to kidney issues.

I'm not a doctor but i believe the scientific routine should be something like.
Get a bunch of people together. Maybe 2000. Pay them and perform an experiment on them averaging over a number of years.

One group , they ONLY take orthodox medicine. Never herbs.

Another group will take only herbs administered by registered practitioners
of herbal medicine.

The third group will mix both methods.

After the period of experimentation. You bring all groups together again and test the quality of their kidney however you're supposed to do that.

If the group that takes only herbal medicine come out top in liver
damage, then you can conclude that your assumptions is indeed correct.

If you fail to isolate them like that, than how can you prove it scientifically that herbal medicine is the leading course for kidney failure as you all seem to believe?
There are quacks in every field and these same people that take herbal medicine might also buy fake drugs from all those motor park pharmacists contributing to the said kidney issues. But the blame seems to be pushed on only herbal medicine, why?
A conductor that buys agbo gbogbo nishe from Iya sikira is the same one that'll buy paracetamol from Mr Benson the motor park pharmacist that sells his drugs from inside a big bowl, he's the same that'll buy Aboki Sule's penis strengthening pills. So all these over the years
does immeasurable damage to his kidney. But somehow doctors are focused on his agbo jedi history.

Just as there are quack pharmacist who sell fake expired drugs to the unenlightened. There are fake gbogbo nishe (all powerful) herbal drug sellers who sell to the unassuming.
They both contribute to damaged kidney. But somehow we talk about herbal medicine and we get the "kidney failure" keyword, like the herbs are the main and only cause. Who taught you to assume that?

The same senior fellow who learnt his trade from med books, the same med books
which are written by scientists, the same scientists whose studies are funded by big pharm cooperations and public health agencies led by people like Dr Fauci. Same big corps and agencies, including university professors who own patents to several drugs thereby profiteering
from these drugs? And once profit becomes the motive, we know how competition is a bad thing. This was what people like John D Rockerfeller knew and why they advocated for control of the pharm and medical sector.
So yeah maybe you are actually doing your best with your best intentions at heart. You want to help people. But the information on which your knowledge is built is supplied by people who are funded by big pharm companies and professors who own patents. So they sell you a
narrative that benefits their pockets. It is impossible to convince me and many more that herbal medicines is useless by default. Yes we have a research problem and we have too many quacks parading themselves as herbal medicine practitioners which has led to the problem
of kidney failure through their unresearched herbal concoctions. The vaccine you're told to push for also will be tested on a large scale on humans and most of this vaccines remain experimental and will harm a lot of people in the process before we know what absolutely works.
All medical breakthroughs come at a cost. Because you're not the one paying it doesn't mean it doesn't exist. The 3rd leading cause of death in the US is medical error. Did you advocate for cancellation of all medical procedures? No, you gain knowledge to improve upon them.
So why are you not giving herbal medicine the same benefit of the doubt? Is it because it is different from what you learnt and will only give you the people you like to refer to as "illiterate quacks" as competition because that's there own forte?
But remember you all swore an oath to "do no harm". And shutting down other methods of healing on sight is harm. Maybe we should advocate for research instead of cancellation by default. What says both cannot exist together. We all know Tianshi and GNLD all the other
variations basically sell packaged standardised herbal products. It hasn't led to the fall of orthodox medicine. It is simply an option. So why shut down our own options?

We should all be able to think beyond what we learned in school.
And until you do that experiment and prove beyond reasonable doubt that herbal medicine is the leading cause of kidney failure after isolating all other factors including bad feeding habits. Then it is what it is, just a buzzword. And even after it has been proven, we don't
cancel, we research to improve, just like every other medical procedure and drugs.
