to find alternative medicines and treatments as opposed to going to their own doctors. In my view,

this

trend can have both positive and negative consequences in equal measure.

To begin

instead

of losing money which can be spent on other than their expectations. Another glaring advantage of home treatment is time-consuming.

For example

, if a patient suffering from a serious disease, they tend to spend other extra days and money on them. In the end, they probably choose alternative medicines without any thinking. When it comes to the drawbacks, many alternative medicines and cures are not reliable enough.

, when individuals visit doctors, they might get to know the symptoms of their particular illness. In that way, they get the right advice and knowledge about the serious
