Medicine's Dark Age
Below is an excerpt from the original Hippocratic Oath translated from Greek.
I swear... to keep according to my ability and my judgment, the following
Oath and Agreement:
To consider dear to me, as my parents, him who taught me this art;
to live in common with him and, if necessary, to share my goods with
him; To look upon his children as my own brothers, to teach them this art.
I will prescribe regimens for the good of my patients according to
my ability and my judgment and never do harm to anyone.
Sadly this oath is not required by most modern medical schools.
One study by Dr. Lucien Leape concluded that 999,936 deaths
were attributed to adverse drug reactions and medical errors in
1997. This is not my idea of "never do harm to anyone". The
medical monopoly is arrogant and greedy with one overriding
purpose - PROFIT.
1,600 of a famous medical school's 8,900 professors and lecturers
admit that they or a family member have
ties to drug companies that could bias their teaching or research.
The pharmaceutical industry contributed more than $11.5 million
to this school in 2008 for “research and continuing education classes.”
Were the healing benefits of natural organic herbs part of that research?
We live in an age where the medical "profession" has evolved
from "healing arts" to "healthy profits". Most drugs and surgery
cause countless uneducated victims to suffer needlessly.
Lack of nutritional training in medical school further hampers
most MD's ability to use natural "real" food and herbs as medicine.
Furthermore most doctors have huge egos and are very condescending
when an educated patient questions their authority. I personally
have encountered several doctors that were not even decent
human beings, much less "caring" practioners of health. The modern
medical establishment could care less about healing the cause
of illness (a very small percentage of dedicated and caring holistic
alternative MDs excepted).
If people would start learning about their bodies and conditions,
and taking responsibility for their own health, a big and very positive
change would occur. Search until you find an MD that believes the
body is made to heal itself with intelligent and natural help. Organic
foods, excercise, herbs, stress reduction, proper breathing and specific
supplements suggested by a dedicated and compassionate doctor
can work wonders if given a chance.
Dr. Richard Schulze the renowned natural health expert says it simply: STOP doing what made you sick and START doing what makes you well.
Drugs and surgery is not the answer in my opinion, what do you think? Let's put the Dark Age of medicine behind us one by one, and enter the "Age of Healthy Enlightenment".
