Herbal supplements and alternative treatments are a booming business; and while much of it is hocus pocus and snake oil, there are legitimate non-traditional therapies your doctor may be unaware of. Fortunately, Consumer Reports has just released a new online product aimed at consumers who wish to explore natural treatment options, but want proof of efficacy.
Boasting a database of over 13,000 natural products, each is ranked according to its effectiveness for the specific condition. The site also warns of possible safety risks and drug interactions.
Access to the site runs $4.95 a month or $19 annually, and can be reached here.
