Homeopathy was removed from the platform and replaced with an explicit commendation of alternative medicine. While I respect the party's mistrust of the pharmaceutical industry, I'm wary of those who would recommend 'alternative' medicine to anyone as a viable treatment. I'm absolutely skeptical of the industry as well, but I at least trust it to act in its own self interest and find a way to grow their profits wherever possible. If it were proven that alternative medicines were effective treatment, I'm pretty confident the pharmaceutical industry would themselves turn around and find a way to profit from them.
