Synopsis
Do alternative medicines really work?
Medical herbalists are lobbying Holyrood today over new European laws which could ban sales of a large number of herbal remedies. Have you put your faith in herbal remedies or other alternative therapies such as acupuncture, homeopathy and reiki healing, or is it all just quackery?
Graham Stewart takes your calls, texts and emails.
Guests
Professor Edzard Ernst, UK's first Professor of Complementary Medicine;
Dee Atkinson, owner of Napier's Herbalists, Edinburgh;
Helen Campbell, registered homeopath who stood for Holyrood in 2003.
