Disease names like diabetes and osteoporosis are misleading and misinform

patients about disease prevention.

 

There is a curious tendency in conventional medicine to name a set of

symptoms a disease. I was recently at a compounding pharmacy having my bone

mineral

density measured to update my health stats. I spotted a poster touting a new

drug for osteoporosis. It was written by a drug company and it said exactly

this: 'Osteoporosis is a disease that causes weak and fragile bones.' Then, the

poster went on to say that you need a particular drug to counteract this

'disease.'

 

Yet the language is all backwards. Osteoporosis isn't a disease that causes

weak bones, osteoporosis is the name given to a diagnosis of weak bones. In

other words, the weak bones are the result of excess acidity, and then the

diagnosis of osteoporosis followed.

 

The drug poster makes it sound like osteoporosis strikes first, and then you

get weak bones. The cause and effect is all backwards. And that's how drug

companies want people to think about diseases and symptoms: first you 'get' the

disease, and then you are 'diagnosed' just in time to take a new drug for the

rest of your life.

 

But it's all hogwash. There is no such disease as osteoporosis. It's just a

made-up name given to a pattern of symptoms that indicate you are over-acid

which causes your bones to get fragile.

 

As another example, when a person follows an unhealthy lifestyle that results

in a symptom such as high blood pressure, that symptom is actually being

assumed to be a disease all by itself and it will be given a disease name. What

disease? The disease is, of course, 'high blood pressure.' Doctors throw this

phrase around as if it were an actual disease and not merely descriptive of

patient physiology.

 

This may all seem silly, right? But there's actually a very important point

to all this.

 

When we look at symptoms and give them disease names, we automatically

distort the selection of available treatments for such a disease. If the disease

is,

by itself, high cholesterol, then the cure for the disease must be nothing

other than lowering the high cholesterol. And that's how we end up with all

these pharmaceuticals treating high cholesterol in order to 'prevent' this

disease

and lower the levels of LDL cholesterol in the human patient. By lowering

only the cholesterol, the doctor can rest assured that he is, in fact, treating

this 'disease,' since the definition of this 'disease' is high cholesterol and

nothing else.

 

But there is a fatal flaw in this approach to disease treatment: the symptom

is not the cause of the disease. There is another cause, and this deeper cause

is routinely ignored by conventional medicine, doctors, drug companies, and

even patients.

 

Let's take a closer look at high blood pressure. What actually causes high

blood pressure? Many doctors would say high blood pressure is caused by a

specific, measurable interaction between circulating chemicals in the human

body.

Thus, the ill-behaved chemical compounds are the cause of the high blood

pressure, and therefore the solution is to regulate these chemicals. That's

exactly

what pharmaceuticals do -- they attempt to manipulate the chemicals in the body

to adjust the symptoms of high blood pressure. Thus, they only treat the

symptoms, not the root cause.

 

Or take a look at high cholesterol. The conventional medicine approach says

that high cholesterol is caused by a chemical imbalance in the liver, which is

the organ that produces cholesterol. Thus the treatment for high cholesterol

is a prescription drug that inhibits the liver's production of cholesterol

(statin drugs). Upon taking these drugs, the high cholesterol (the 'disease') is

regulated, but what was causing the liver to overproduce cholesterol in the

first place? That causative factor remains ignored.

 

The root cause of high cholesterol, as it turns out, is primarily an over

acidic diet. A person who eats foods that are acidic will inevitably cause the

body to go into preservation mode and produce more cholesterol to neutralize the

excess acid thus showing the symptoms of this so-called disease of high

cholesterol. Its simple cause and effect. Eat the wrong foods, and you'll

produce

too much acid which will cause the body to release cholesterol from the liver

to bind up that acid which can be detected and diagnosed by conventional

medical procedures.

 

You see it is not the cholesterol that is bad it is the acid producing food

we eat that is bad. Reduce the acid producing foods like beef, chicken, pork,

dairy, coffee, tea, soda pops, etc and you will reduce the protective

cholesterol that is saving your life from excess acid foods.

 

Yet the root cause of all this is actually poor food choice, not some bizarre

behavior by the liver. If the disease were to be accurately named, then, it

would be called Acidic Food Choice Disease, or simply AFCD.

 

AFCD would be a far more accurate name that would make sense to people. If

it's an acidic foods choice disease, then it seems that the obvious solution to

the disease would be to choose foods that aren't so acidic. Of course that may

be a bit of simplification since you have to distinguish between healthy

alkaline foods and unhealthy acidic foods. But at least the name AFCD gives

patients a better idea of what's actually going on rather than naming the

disease

after a symptom, such as high cholesterol. You see, the symptom is not the

disease, but conventional medicine insists on calling the symptom the disease

because that way it can treat the symptom and claim success without actually

addressing the underlying cause, which remains a mystery to modern medicine.

 

But let's move on to some other diseases so you get a clearer picture of how

this actually works. Another disease that's caused by poor acidic food choice

is diabetes. Type 2 diabetes is the natural physiological and metabolic result

of a person consuming refined carbohydrates and added sugars in large

quantities, undigested proteins from beef, chicken, and pork without engaging in

regular physical exercise that would compensate for such dietary practices.

 

The name 'diabetes' is meaningless to the average person. The disease should

be called Excessive Acid Disease, or EAD. If it were called Excessive Acid

Disease, the solution to it would be rather apparent; simply eat less sugar,

eliminate all animal proteins, eggs, dairy, drink fewer soft drinks and so on.

But

of course that would be far too simple for the medical community, so the

disease must be given a complex name such as diabetes that puts its solution out

of reach of the average patient.

 

Another disease that is named after its symptom is cancer. In fact, to this

day, most doctors and many patients still believe that cancer is a physical

thing: a tumor. In reality, a tumor is the solution of cancer, not its cause. A

tumor is simply a physical manifestation of bound up acidic cells so they do

not spoil other healthy cells. The tumor is the solution to cells damaged by

acids not the problem. The truth is cancer is not a cell but an acidic liquid.

When a person 'has cancer,' what they really have is a latent tissue acidosis.

They are absorbing their own acidic urine. It that would be a far better name

for the disease: Latent Tissue Acidosis or LTA.

 

If cancer were actually called Latent Tissue Acidosis, it would seem

ridiculous to try to cure cancer by cutting out tumors through surgery and by

destroying the immune system with chemotherapy. And yet these are precisely the

most

popular treatments for cancer offered by conventional medicine. These

treatments do absolutely nothing to support the patient's immune system and

prevent the

build up of acids in the tissues. That's exactly why most people who undergo

chemotherapy or the removal of tumors through surgical procedures end up with

yet more cancer a few months or a few years later. It's also another reason

why survival rates of cancer have barely budged over the last twenty years. (In

other words, conventional medicine's treatments for cancer simply don't work.)

 

 

The main reason is current medical science wrongly perceives cancer as a cell

when in reality cancer is an acidic liquid, like lactic acid. This whole

situation stems from the fact that the disease is misnamed. It isn't cancer, it

isn't a tumor and it certainly isn't a disease caused by having too strong of an

immune system that needs to be destroyed through chemotherapy. It is simply

latent tissue acidosis. And if it were called latent tissue acidosis disease or

urine in the tissues, the effective treatment for cancer would be apparent.

 

There are many other diseases that are given misleading names by western

medicine. But if you look around the world and take a look at how diseases are

named elsewhere, you will find many countries have disease names that actually

make sense.

 

For example, in Chinese medicine, Alzheimer's disease is given a name that

means, when translated, 'feeble mind disease.' In Chinese medicine, the name of

the disease more accurately describes the actual cause of the disease which is

caused by acids or urine on the brain, whereas in western medicine, the name

of the disease seems to be intended to obscure the root cause of the disease,

thereby making all diseases sound far more complex and mysterious than they

really are.

 

This is one way in which doctors and practitioners of western medicine keep

medical treatments out of the reach of the average citizen. Because, by God,

they sure don't want people thinking for themselves about the causes of disease!

 

 

By creating a whole new vocabulary for medical conditions, they can speak

their own secret language and make sure that people who aren't schooled in

medicine don't understand what they're saying.

 

That's a shame, because the treatments and cures for virtually all chronic

diseases are actually quite simple and can be described in plain language, such

as making different alkaline food choices, getting more natural sunlight,

drinking more alkaline water, engaging in regular physical exercise, avoiding

specific acidic foods, supplementing your diet with green foods and green drinks

and alkalizing nutritional supplements and so on.

 

See, western medicine prefers to describe diseases in terms of chemistry.

When you're depressed, you aren't suffering from a lack of natural sunlight; you

are suffering from a 'brain chemistry imbalance' that can only be regulated,

they claim, by ingesting toxic chemicals to alter your brain chemistry. When

your bones are brittle, it's not acidic brittle bones disease; it's called

osteoporosis, something that sounds very technical and complicated. And to treat

it, western doctors and physicians will give you prescriptions for expensive

drugs that somehow claim to make your bones less brittle. But in fact, the real

treatment for this can be described in plain language once again: regular

physical exercise, vitamin D supplementation, mineral supplements that include

calcium and strontium, natural sunlight, and avoidance of acidic foods such as

soft drinks, white flour and added sugars.

 

In fact, virtually every disease that's prominent in modern society --

diabetes, cancer, heart disease, osteoporosis, clinical depression, irritable

bowel

syndrome and so on -- can be easily described in plain language without using

complex terms at all. These diseases are simply misnamed. And I believe that

they are intentionally misnamed to put the jargon out of reach of everyday

citizens. As a result, there's a great deal of arrogance in the language of

western medicine, and this arrogance furthers the language of separation.

Separation

never results in healing. In order to effect healing, we must bring together

the language of healers and patients using plain language that real people

understand and that real people can act upon.

 

We need to start describing diseases in terms of their root causes, not in

terms of their arcane, biochemical actions. When someone suffers from seasonal

affective disorder or clinical depression, for example, let's call it what it

is: Sunlight Deficiency Disorder. To treat it, the person simply needs to get

more sunlight. This isn't rocket science, it's not complex, and it doesn't

require a prescription.

 

If someone is suffering from osteoporosis, let's get realistic about the

words we use to describe the condition: it's really Acidic Bones Disease. And it

should be treated with things that will enhance bone density, such as

nutrition, physical exercise and avoidance of acidic foods and drinks that strip

away

bone mass from the human body to neutralize the excess acids in the blood and

tissues.

 

All of this information, of course, is rather shocking to old-school doctors

and practitioners of western medicine, and the bigger their egos are, the more

they hate the idea of naming diseases in plain language that patients can

actually comprehend. That's because if the simple truths about diseases and

their

causes were known, health would be more readily available to everyday people,

and that would lessen the importance of physicians and medical researchers.

 

There's a great deal of ego invested in the medical community, and they sure

don't want to make sound health attainable to the average person without their

expert advice. Doctors all want to serve as the translators of 'truth' and

will balk at any attempts to educate the public to either practice medicine on

their own. But in reality, health (and a connection with spirit) is attainable

by every single person. Health is easy, it is straightforward, it is direct

and, for the most part, it is available free of charge.

 

A personal connection with our Creator is the same if we ask humbly in prayer

for a relationship with Him, and guidance. Don't believe the names of

diseases given to you by your doctor. Those names are designed to obscure, not

to

inform. They are designed to separate you from self-healing, not to put you in

touch with your own inner healer. And thus, they are nothing more than bad

medicine masquerading as modern medical practice.
