“The latest issue of the Health-EU Newsletter spotlights Complementary and Alternative Medicine (CAM). CAM is becoming increasingly popular in Europe, with up to 65% of the population reporting that they have used this form of medicine. ...

“The newsletter highlights EUROCAM, the alliance of patients, doctors and practitioners in the field of CAM, which is committed to raising public awareness of the public-health benefits of CAM, especially in terms of prevention and health promotion, patient safety, patient-centred health services, mental health, palliative care, health economics and healthy ageing. 

“Responding to increasing use of CAM by the European public, the European Commission's Directorate-General for Research has funded CAMbrella, a project to develop a roadmap for future European research in CAM that is appropriate for Europe's health care needs.”
