- Abstract
The article presents several research studies related to alternative medicine. Clinicians reported that three prepubertal boys have developed gynecomastia and was traced in skin care products which contain Lavendula officinalis (Lavender) oil and Melaleuca alternifolia (tea tree) oil. It mentioned that an increase of magnesium sulphate intake can lower bronchial reactivity that leads to asthma. Researchers suggest that taking proton pump inhibitor drugs may increase risk of hip fracture.
