 I will discuss how these ways could be harmful.
First
 of all, alternative cures
such
 as meditation, yoga, and changing your eating patterns or ingredients can not be a truthful method to deal with several diseases. The reason for
this
 is the limitations of their effects.
For example
, immune system diseases which are life and death situations need medical interventions. To solve
such
 defects, community services should organize
health
 education classes.
Thus
, society's awareness will increase.
Moreover
, alternative treatments usually are expensive and cost loads of money.
For instance
, hair and skin products from India are rare to find and
people
 can easily fall into a bad deal where they could buy a cheap substance at a high price. To clarify, actions that are not medically that
people
 use to handle
health
 problems could be ad additional damage to their
health
.
This
 is because of the illusion they might hear from unqualified
people
 who never had academic training. To correct these errors, authorities need to put some rules and conditions in order to prevent possible complications.
As a result
, there will be fewer chances of misleading and
people
 will not suffer any of the previous issues.
