Medical Doctors Don't Always Tell The Truth

There is a myth (lie) that you can get all the nutrients you need from your food. That is simply NOT true unless the soil on which the food is grown has an ample amount of ALL the elements known to be essential. In many cases, the soils contain few or none of the essential micronutrients. In addition to the macro minerals (calcium, Magnesium, Phosphorus and Potassium) there are trace minerals, amino acids, enzymes, co-enzymes and bio-elements, which we need to live and to have and maintain a healthy immune system. Yet, farmers only put back the three main nutrients needed to stimulate growth of the plant they produce: (N) Nitrogen, (P) Phosphorous and (K) Potassium (NPK). (Plants have the capacity to produce vitamins, but not minerals.) There are various diseases associated with a deficiency in each of the required nutrients.

Some among the healing professions affirm that there are over 900 diseases attributed to nutrient deficiencies. Whether this number is true or not I cannot say for sure. Nevertheless, I'm certain there are some diseases that simply go away within weeks after certain nutrients are provided. Since medical doctors have little interest in nutrition, but are trained to prescribe medicine, many times they are not telling you the truth when they send you away with a prescription and telling you, "This should take care of it. If it doesn't, come back in two weeks." When/if you go back they increase the dosage or change or add to the medication. When will medical doctors learn that the human body works essentially the same way as the body of animals, and realize that most of the same diseases that are prevented or cured in animals, by nutrition (to include supplements), can be prevented or cured in humans?

There are essential nutrients that many of us will be deficient in if we do not take quality supplements. The result will likely be a weak immune system resulting in various health problems. For the price of a soft drink, you can supplement all the essential nutrients for a day; and the soft drinks should be given up anyway.

There are medical doctors who help people and even save lives regularly. However, I challenge you to start taking note of the benefits that you and/or your friends and family are getting from traditional medicine. All too often, people spend thousands of dollars on tests, operations, hospitalization and medicine only to find that they are no better, or worse off, than if they had simply rested at home. Unless they had insurance, often the expense and debt they incur will result in them never being the same again.

As I write this, it was just yesterday that I talked to a man who came into my office that said he had received seven back surgeries and was still in such pain that he could not work. He stated that he probably was going to have to sell his farm. This is not an isolated horror story.

Speaking of insurance, the price is outrageous because of the malpractice lawsuits and the expense of testing and bringing to market various medicines, which virtually always prove to have side effects that are often worse than the disease. Medicine is expensive because the pharmaceutical’s products hurt and kill many people, resulting in personal and class action lawsuits, which often run into the millions of dollars in each particular case.

Is There A Double Standard?

Yes, there is a double standard in America. One person can die from an herb and it is splashed all over the news, along with talk of doing something about herbs and other nutritional supplements not being controled by FDA. Yet, it has become accepted that drugs are going to make a certain number of people sick and it often takes the death of thousands before any action is taken to withdraw a drug from the market.

Are There Alternatives?

There are alternatives to drugs and surgery, in many cases, and this website is designed to help you find the health information, which would benefit you most. You will have to make your own choices based upon your own needs. You owe it to yourself to check out the alternatives rather than blindly accept the advice of a physician, who makes his living prescribing drugs and/or doing surgery.

Conclusion

Obviously, you do not like to get sick, and your employer does not like you getting sick either because it costs him money. Once you have learned how to provide your body with the things it needs to ward off disease and to heal itself, you will experience a level of proficiency of which you and your employer will be proud. I encourage you to continue caring for your physical body throughout your days. No one should want to die before having lived a long life and having done all possible to help others in important matters pertaining to life on earth, and the life after death.
