Labor is trying to exclude natural therapies from private health fund rebaes.

It is all too easy and tempting to purchase nutritional supplements. They are available in massive displays at the supermarket, chemists and health food stores. The internet provides further temptation to ‘research’ any health condition and offer a myriad of ‘cures’. Friends and colleages are often too forthcoming with ‘advice’ and personal recommendations. Before you…
