  You'd think so, but things like probiotics, and diet-based approaches to curing disease is still considered alternative medicine. Many doctors are way behind on this stuff, and we'll probably be waiting on a Kuhnian scientific revolution to occur before this really enters mainstream medicine. For example, I have a family member with Crohn's and the majority of doctors they saw were adamant that diet would not alter the symptoms of the disease, and the only way to treat it was using drugs like prednisone (steroid) or Humira (TNF blocker), both of which can have awful side effects. With some major dietary adjustments, and the guidance of "non-traditional" doctors, my family member is in full remission, and has met countless other people with Crohn's, Hashimoto's, and other diseases caused by chronic inflammation who have essentially been cured this way, too.
