Not true.  Are you suggesting there is never a need for traditional
western medicine?  While natural healing type stuff has its place western
medecine definitely does as well.

Always?  Why do we get sick, die, etc. ?  Imbalance of nutrients, neglect
of natural ways?  Only to a certain point, obviously, then we will get
sick and/or die eventually anyway.

My (possibly incorrect understanding) was that it used to help us digest
tough meat/grisel in past times, before the food enters the ascending
large colon.  BTW - this would imply that it shriveled due to lack of
use;  i.e. we evolved away from meat (not completely, of course - more to
this argument - no time now).
