Which category of complementary and alternative medicine do you think is best for the typical American to adopt? Offer reasons to support your choice
1 . The vast majority of Americans are already using biologically based therapies, like vitamins and dietary supplements, so they would be best for the typical American, since they would likely be most accepted.
2 . Because the vast majority of Americans are already using biologically based therapies, like herbs and vitamins, they would not be the best choice. Instead, the best category would be something like energy therapies, to which they might have had little exposure.
3 . Mind-body medicine, like yoga, deep breathing, and meditation, is the fastest growing category of CAM. As such, it would be a great option for a typical American to adopt.
4 . Due to the stress relieving properties and studies like the rabbit study at Ohio State University, manipulative and body-based therapies have the potential for the greatest impact on a person's overall health, and therefore would be best for the typical American to adopt.
