-THERE IS NEED FOR TIME AND PROOF REGARDING TRADITIONAL CHINESE MEDICINE, AKDAG

BEIJING (A.A) - 22.04.2009 - Turkish Health Minister Recep Akdag said Wednesday Traditional Chinese Medicine needs time and proof.
Minister Akdag held talks at the Guanganmen Traditional Chinese Medical Hospital in Beijing.
Akdag visited several cancer patients at the hospital and proposed to Chinese authorities to work together with Turkish medical experts.
By working together in the health field, we can better serve the humanity, Akdag said.
Speaking to Turkish journalists, Akdag indicated that Traditional Chinese Medicine has not proven itself as a means of treating cancer patients.
"Traditional medical practices are worth considering and implementing. Traditional medicine may provide treatment but it needs to be proven," Akdag said.
Minister Akdag is scheduled to visit a children's hospital and a pharmaceutical factory in Beijing on Thursday.
Akdag will meet with his Chinese counterpart Chen Zhu on Thursday.E)
