Alternative Science refers to theories and practices that diverge from mainstream scientific consensus. These ideas often lack rigorous testing and peer review, which are fundamental to traditional science. Examples include concepts like pseudoscience, fringe theories, and various forms of holistic medicine that may not be supported by empirical evidence. While some alternative science claims can be intriguing, they often face criticism for not adhering to the scientific method. This can lead to misinformation and confusion, especially when these ideas are presented as valid alternatives to established scientific knowledge, such as evolution or climate change.
