Wrong - ppl haven't "exoticised" anythjng, in fact, here in the west in general and US in padticular, most ppl w/o knowing much abt traditional chinese medicine think like you unfortunately and think w its just quackery and that Chinese medicine yielded no real health benefits, beyond a "placebo effect," until the influence of the west's modern medical standards
Sad
