Why Are People Choosing Ill Health

Why Are People Choosing Ill Health?

Why indeed? Great PR for one. Over the last fifty years
TV & Radio has built that PR, paid for of course, by the
pharmaceutical industry who, silently and without
fanfare, took over the medical world about twenty-five to
thirty years ago, while I watched and tried to warn
people. Nobody wanted to listen then and isn't
listening now! Then, in conjunction, they built up the
PR about all those terrible illnesses that are going to
happen to you so you needed a health insurance
policy to pay for all that illness. "Those illnesses,"
caused by their chemical medications were just
beginning, and continue to grow. As the PR grew
then people ran to the doctors in droves, because
it was free! Once they hooked you on that
propaganda you had been had!

Up until that time most of the diseases we see
today were unheard of! Yes people died then
and will continue to die, but not from mega bacteria
brought about by today's chemical medications!
Not from heart disease and cancer caused by the
same chemical medications.

Doctors were for emergencies and insurance was
all but nonexistent! Doctors were chemists of sorts
and mixed their own Medications with natural easily
digestible wild herbs.

The pharmaceutical companies in conjunction with
the insurance industry has built up such PR that
people have bought into it hook-line-and-sinker.

The subtle message is, "Don't treat your cold,
see your doctor!" another PR nightmare, "Don't
take supplements as they are not beneficial to your
health." "Ask your doctor about ------ Medication if
you have heartburn, PMDD, heart irregularity,
bowel irregularity, mood swing, et.!" Get the idea?
You're being brain washed! All you ever hear on
the news or news-magazines are things hand fed
the news media by the pharmaceutical industry,
either on the eve of the release of a new product
or to try and kill a supplement that they are unable
to make money from. Don't believe me? Watch,
listen and learn!

Wake up, start looking and listening to the real story!

First, heart irregularity is usually a wake up call that
your system is low on potassium, calcium, zinc and
other minerals. Bowel irregularity is telling you that
you are low on fiber, minerals and nutrients, caused
from wrong eating habits. Heartburn is saying, hey
don't eat/drink that stuff, improve your diet! PMDD
is a term the pharmaceutical industry planted in the
minds of women to sell them on a treatment that will
make them and doctor's lots of money. Colds will
clear up with or without treatment but all you need
to do is get lots of rest, fluids, vitamins, minerals and,
as a smart doctor I worked with used to say, "14 days
without antibiotics or two weeks or more with
antibiotics." All of those problems are treatable easily
and without a visit to the doctor. But lazy people
want lazy quick fixes, thereby setting them up for an
illness sooner or later!

What brought this article about? I get angry every year
when the new stats come out and illnesses have gone
up so drastically, yet all I hear from JAMA, AMA, etc.,
are about all the great treatments available and how
they are beating the diseases. And since the inception
of the Heart Association, Diabetes Association, Cancer
Research, Breast Cancer Foundation, etc., donate
your dollars we're an inch away from a cure! If that's
true why are the illnesses increasing every year?
Because people are buying into that crock of crap!

Who has the answer here? Cancer is still only 20% to
40% curable with traditional Westernized medicine,
yet alternative medicine has a 75% - 80% cure rate?

What's true is that people can be healthy and refuse
to be ill, if they will stop listening to the PR on TV, in
Magazines & on Radio. PR put out by the
burn/cut/poison pharmaceutical/medical industry,
the billions of dollars a year cash cow!

Even though the industry released a report on the fact
that taking vitamins is a necessity, they forgot the
most important element that should have been
included in that report. It should have read take
minerals then vitamins in order for them to work
properly. Of course that report was put out just prior to
a new vitamin supplement being released by a
pharmaceutical industry, without sufficient mineral
content!

See
http://www.antibiotic-alternatives.com/senate_document.htm
to understand why minerals are so important! This
information is available to anyone who wants to
read and understand it! That includes the
medical/pharmaceutical industry.

The winners for the top illnesses are! - Sounds like
the Academy Awards, doesn't it? - Not so
glamorous as that and not a good report, but one
that continues to grow yearly.

The latest report listed the following numbers and
dollars it's costing the public! Listed in order of
most expensive to least expensive!

~ 17 million people diagnosed with heart disease,
spent $58 billion,
~ 9 million cancer patients spent $46 billion,
~ 37 million who suffered a traumatic injury,
spent $44 billion,
~ 20 million with mental disorders, shelled out
$30 billion.
~ 10 million people, Diabetes, $20 billion,
~ 27 million people, Hypertension (high blood pressure)
$18 billion,
~ 2 million people, Stroke-related conditions, $16 billion,
~ 16 million people, Osteoarthritis, $16 billion,
~ 4 million people, Pneumonia, $16 billion,
~ 13 million people, Back problems, $13 billion,
~ 2 million people, Kidney disease, $10 billion,
~ 18 million people, Endocrine disorders, $10 billion,
~ 20 million people, Skin disorders, $9 billion,
~ 16 million people, Infectious diseases, $6 billion,

In spite of all the billions of dollars raised each year
and put into research of these illnesses and medicine
the number continues to rise. Even though we have
more medical treatments than ever! Why?

The Agency for Health Affairs states, "Not surprising,
that many of the conditions in the top 15 are chronic
diseases that require long-term care."

This is billions of people who are buying into the
largely useless medications and medical treats out
there. Now I do not say never see a doctor! If I'm
injured in an auto accident get me to the doctor. If I
break a bone, get me to the Orthopedist! Doctor's are
great things to have around, when needed. But while
I was in the medical offices I watch medicine change
so drastically when the HMO/PPO mentality took
over. In the 1980's good doctors started to leave
medicine for other fields by the droves, either retired
or went into other professions, leaving those
educated and paid for by the pharmaceutical industry
to take care of the masses. Thus the take over and
mentality of cut/burn/poison as treatments. Doctors
who really care about their patients and want to treat
them as people with both traditional and/or
alternative healthy medicine are drummed out of
practice with false accusations of using quackery!

The good doctors left the U.S. and went across the
border to Mexico. What happened? The fast and
furious propaganda said that those practicing
medicine across the border are quacks and will kill
you, when in actuality if you want a cure go across
the border! I'm not saying 100% of those are good,
just the majority!

I have watched people overcome a multitude of
problems and become healthy, not in the medical
office but with alternatives, yet the majority still
prefer to go with OTC and prescribed medications
that create the largest number of their diseases,
as shown in side effects listed with each medication.

Heaven forbid that anyone should read the side effects,
might depress them! Beats me why people prefer to
stick their heads in the sand and give their health
care over to someone else completely, namely the
doctor. Not Smart! But guess the majority will have
to be considered not smart, if these figures are an
indication of smartness! I believe it is!

Since the world revolves around money, maybe
we can get results by looking at what is coming
out of your pocket caused by a
stick-your-head-in-the-sand attitude.

Researchers for Healthcare Research and Quality
say, private insurance paid for about 35% of the
expenses, and Medicare covered nearly 45% of
heart disease expenses, 20-25% of cancer costs,
and 16% of expenses related to treating mental
disorders. Medicare totals 65% and is public
funds from our tax dollars! Medicare can be at
any age, if a person is considered disabled. Heart
disease usually renders a person disabled, putting
them into the Medicare/Medicaid system. Paid out
of the working class's pocket! That can be changed
but only when people take their heads out of the
sand!

Off my soap box for today,
Please pay attention to your health and get smart!
