Why has CAM increased over the years


Anysha 
Many people will choose what is readily available to them. The easiest route possible for some is to swallow a pill every day rather than locating a CAM provider to help with well being or an illness but others would prefer CAM. The use of CAM has increases dramatically in the United States. The 2002 National Health Interview Survey showed that 62 % of adults had used CAM therapies within the last year. Why is the use of CAM so high? People have lost trust in the health care system. Doctors will prescribe a patient medicine for anything now days. It has been said that pharmaceutical companies pay doctors for prescribing certain medications. Regardless of some cost of CAM the common and costless are practice deep breathing and relax. People could do this at home with their own leisure time.
