Answers:

Do a higher percentage of people in China die of cancer, or just more people? But, to answer your question, I believe that people put stock in "Eastern Cures" because they are mysterious and it may make the affected feel special or like they're getting a treatment other people with the same problem aren't. You know what I mean mean? Besides, there are plenty of "Western Cures" that don't really work all the time. In fact, I wouldn't say that any cure works all the time.
