and cannot function properly without it (Hoenders, et.al, 2018). This displeasure with conventional medicine has made alternative treatments a growing interest among patients and therapists (Gureje, ONortje, Makanjuola, Oladeji, Seedat, & Jenkins, 2015). Patients are motivated to try non-addictive, natural supplements that are easier to access. Therapists and physicians are willing to learn about holistic methods that are less intimidating to their patients to help patients better commit to treatment and development. Therapists should proceed with caution and be well-versed in the pros and cons of using alternative medicines because they too, can have negative side effects.

Human pluripotent stem cells produced islet cell lines that can eventually be used for transplantation. Understanding the entire process of stem cells could even lead to the prevention and treatment of birth defects and cancer.For it or against it? I am entirely for it.

Animal Testing In Medical Research Should Be Illegal
Animals are being killed every day due to research in cosmetics, medicine, and other human products. Drugs we get from animal testing are extremely dangerous to both animals and humans. Creatures used in medical labs get treated poorly. What happens to animals after they are done with their research? There are other options, which are more successful in testing medicines, than killing animals to research medicine. God didn’t create all these animals just so we could kill them and destroy their homes.

The pharmaceutical industry is facing many key issues today that have a huge impact on
millions of people throughout the United States. This issue is the societal sin of commerce without morality, which is the indulgence to make more money by any means necessary.
Pharmaceutical companies have used this sin by inflating the prices of medicine, causing
unethical effects, and increasing insurance costs, all for the advantage of profit for the company.
Throughout the past decade, insurance and medicines have increased by 20%, making it

Death and Dying
Death and dying is normal process that every human being will go through, even though the process may vary from person to person. Not everyone will have the same experience and every case will be unique. Whether we acknowledge or not many people fear death, we tend to view death as an enemy and try to avoid it with technology and medicine. People die from many causes from age to terminal cancer.

The Structure of DNADNA, or deoxyribonucleic acid, is the hereditary material in humans and almostall other organisms. Nearly every cell in a person's body has the same DNA. Most DNAis located in the cell nucleus (it is called nuclear DNA), but a small amount of DNAcan also be found in the mitochondria (U.S. National Library of Medicine, 2009). ADNA molecule consists of two chains of nucleotides (polymers of nucleic acid eachcomposed of a phosphate, a five carbon sugar, and a nitrogenous base) that spiral to formthe double helix shape. The nucleotides that forms the DNA structure are organized sotheir sugar-phosphate components face the outside and form

prevents such deterrent effects, best outlined by Lord Denning in Whitehouse[footnoteRef:11], like doctors refusing to work on patients that are complicated and high risk due to fear of liability if something goes wrong; young people being deterred from the medical profession; and doctors becoming extra-cautious which could lead to unnecessary treatment and defensive medicine to avoid liability which in itself is bad for patients financially, emotionally, and perhaps physically if too many treatments have negative effects on their health. In this way, the standard of care in place can be seen to protect patients. [11: Whitehouse v Jordan [1981] 1 WLR 246.]

This did not discourage Freeman, and he began to perfecting the lobotomy, but needed to make a few initial and drastic changes to the procedure. First, he decided that most surgeons were more concerned with defending the safety of their approach than they were with demonstrating its effectiveness, and so he created a cheaper alternative that resulted in the same general outcome.

He condemns the Attorney General Jeff Sessions’ decision to go after marijuana suggesting that it “will only make the opioid epidemic worse”.

Nevertheless, there is still more research needed on this topic and hopefully, larger scale and more in-depth studies will be conducted in the future.
