Question

What signs would you look for in order to tell if a particular medicine or treatment was a fake cure? How can you avoid quackery?

Answer 1

Simple really... If say you were looking for a cure for say a fracture, all you have to simply due is touch the broken bone... You feel crepitus and it still hurts, than it is still broken. Pretty much physical interactions are the most obvious ways tell that something was a fake cure.

Answer 2

Answer:

Well sometimes there so ridiculous you can just tell if its legit or not. In some cases, it can be hard to tell. Although sometimes questions may seem plausible. You can prevent this by simply just doing a quick minute of googling, just to be safe. Some remedies can be partly true and some can be completely trust-worthy. In all scenario's doing research is the safest way of deciphering whether a remedy is helpful or not.

Another way to determine if a remedy is legit or not is speaking with your doctor, it is not as quick as researching but it is still safer than trying it. You can also just ask someone you have tried it. If someone you know happens to have tried the remedy.
