Imagine catching a nasty cold and going to the doctor after several

days of coughing uncontrollably, only to receive a made-up diagnosis

and a fake prescription that didn't do anything for your cold. More

than likely, you would never want to go back to that doctor.

 

In our modern environment of pretend diseases and fabricated

treatments, this is exactly what's happening in most conventional

clinics and hospitals. Read today's NewsTarget feature to find out why

doctors, drug companies, medical journals, the FDA and even patients

buy into a make-believe world of pretend medicine.

Pretend medicine: Let's play doctor!

Conventional medicine, as practiced today, is actually pretend

medicine. Doctors and drug companies pretend to make patients

healthier by giving them drugs. The FDA pretends to protect the safety

of the public. Medical journals pretend to print only rigorous,

scientifically-sound research papers. Drug companies pretend to care

about the lives and health of patients. Non-profit disease front

groups pretend to be searching for the cure while, in reality, most of

them are only searching for more ways to recruit patients into

conventional medicine treatments like drugs, surgery, chemotherapy and

radiation.

 

How do we know it's all pretend? Aside from all the junk science,

corruption, fraud, collusion, conflicts of interest and intellectual

dishonesty that characterizes modern medicine, there's one more

all-important thing to consider: The results. If modern medicine

really worked, and wasn't just pretend, wouldn't we be the healthiest

population in the world?

 

Seriously. We Americans pay more for health care, per capita, than any

nation in the world. We take more drugs, undergo more surgical

procedures, and log more hospitals visits than anyone else. If the

drugs-and-surgery approach to medicine actually produced healthy human

beings, shouldn't we be the healthiest people on the planet?

 

But look around. We are the most diseased people on the planet. We

have more disease, disorders and illness than any population that has

ever been observed in the history of human civilization (aside from

plagues and the like). The reason is because the medicine being

practiced today is pretend medicine.

 

Yet it seems impossible: How can everybody be pretending? Let's find out:

 

Conventional medical schools: They pretend to teach health, but they

actually teach disease diagnosis combined with a drugs-and-surgery

approach to treatment that excludes nearly all other treatments,

including the ones that really work.

 

The FDA: This highly corrupt agency pretends to regulate

pharmaceutical companies while protecting the health and safety of the

American public, but in reality in protects Big Pharma profits at the

expense of public safety.

 

Health insurance companies and HMOs: They pretend to offer coverage

for health costs, but in reality, they are largely in the business of

denying coverage and thus limiting payouts while driving health

clinics to the brink of bankruptcy due to late payments.

 

Medical journals: They pretend to be the gatekeepers of scientific

truth, but in reality most are for-profit publications that

predominantly print pro-drug articles. By sheer coincidence, most

medical journals are also largely funded by drug money (advertising

dollars from drug companies).

 

Non-profit disease groups: They pretend to be raising money to find

the so-called " cures " for their flagship disease (breast cancer, for

example), but in reality they are more interested in the business of

promoting a particular disease as a way to increase disease screening,

diagnosis and treatment with expensive drugs (that just happen to be

made by the same companies that help fund these non-profit disease

front groups).

 

Chemotherapy: This highly toxic cancer treatment -- a poisoning of the

patient that compromises all future healing -- pretends to treat

patients for cancer. In reality, it only destroys the artifacts of

cancer while irreversibly damaging the patient's internal organs,

thereby harming the patient's ability to ever heal again.

 

Drug companies: These sinister corporations pretend to be working for

the public good, charging us outrageous prices on prescription drugs

so that they can fund the expensive research to find cures for

tomorrow's diseases (most of which they will invent out of thin air in

order to sell more drugs, by the way). In reality, drug companies are

in the business of disease mongering in order to expand the

definitions of disease as a clever marketing strategy. The more people

who can be diagnosed with something, the more drugs they can sell on TV.

More than 80% of all chronic disease is preventable, but only if you

know how. Learn the proven, yet simple prevention strategies for

cancer, heart disease, diabetes, depression, Alzheimer's and many

other degenerative health conditions.

Clinical drug trial researchers: These so-called scientists pretend

to run honest, objective clinical trials, yet in reality they know

that if they don't produce the results that please their sponsors

(usually drug companies), they'll be blacklisted from the industry. So

they pretend to conduct real science and thus protect their own

careers. Amazing, isn't it, how drug trials almost always produce

results that support their sponsors?

 

Mainstream media: The press pretends to write honest, objective,

well-researched stories on health issues. In reality, however, the

biggest publications and news outlets simply parrot the same old

propaganda pushed by deep-pocketed advertisers (Big Pharma), without

bothering with any real critical thinking or skepticism on most

stories. Too many journalists pretend to be health experts but are, in

fact, largely illiterate when it comes to nutrition, human physiology

or the truth about the health care industry.

 

Psychiatrists: This sorry group of professional sickos pretends to

help children with their mental health " disorders " by drugging them up

with powerful amphetamines like Ritalin and calling it treatment.

Having sold its soul to the pharmaceutical companies, psychiatry is

now little more than a drug-dealing front group engaged in chemical

atrocities committed against children and adults alike. Their best

skill? Pretending to diagnose children with fictitious diseases that

have absolutely no verifiable pathology or physiological basis.

 

Old-School Doctors: Old-school MDs pretend to treat patients suffering

from chronic disease, but in reality most of these so-called

treatments are little more than a chemical hijacking of the patient's

body with harmful synthetic chemicals (prescription drugs). The

overzealous writing of prescriptions to a never-ending line of

symptomatic patients isn't real medicine, it's just old fashioned drug

dealing and snake oil salesmanship. Real doctors -- that is, the good

ones practicing today -- actually help educate patients about health

and only turn to drugs as a last resort.
