Alternative Medicines in Australia Background and Importance
Persuasive Essay: Alternative Medicines in Australia
Introduction – Background and Importance of the Issue
Healing wounds, making sick people healthy again, determining the exact condition of people who are ill, and keeping society as healthy as possible – these are all goals of the healthcare industry in Australia. There are very few things as important to a nation as the good health of its people. There are always incidents and injuries in any society, and there are health problems due to the imperfection of the human body and the intervention of substances that can cause a person to be ill. Cancer is one of the leading causes of illness and death in Australia. According to the Cancer Council of Australia, on in five cancer deaths result from smoking cigarettes and 3% of cancers are due to alcohol consumption; moreover, in Australia in 2012 an estimated 534,000 "…new cases of cancer will be diagnosed" (www.cancer.org.au).
The Cancer Council of Australia also explains that more than 43,000 people died from cancer in Australia in 2010, and that one out of every two Australians will be diagnosed with some form of cancer by the age of 85. The leading cause of death in Australia is in fact cancer, not auto accidents or other diseases (www.cancer.org.au). Hence, cancer and the other diseases that affect Australians must be treated well, and there are many who feel the traditional types of cancer treatments – and treatments for other maladies – are not always the right way to go about the healing process.
Thesis: There are many holistic / alternative / natural medicines that have been proven to help individuals resist disease and even help to cure diseases. Despite the criticisms by some in the country of using alternative medicines, Australians should embrace proven alternative medicines because in a society dominated by traditional medicine and healthcare, there is room for proven alternatives.
