Thursday, May 19, 2005 Ten Lies About Health Your Doctor Taught YouLie #1: Prescription drugs will make you healthier. Truth #1: Prescription drugs only mask symptoms. They do nothing to correct the underlying biochemical causes of disease. Simultaneously, most prescription drugs cause nutritional deficiencies which lead to further progression of chronic disease. See http://www.newstarget.com/001352.html Lie #2: You should actively treat the swelling of sprains, strains and other injuries. Truth #2: Swelling is your body's natural strategy for enhancing the flow of blood and nutrients to the injured area. If drugs or hormones are used to prevent swelling, the injured tissues won't heal correctly, greatly increasing the likelihood of repeat injuries to the same area. Lie #3: Mammograms prevent cancer. Truth #3: Mammograms actually cause cancer. They dose the breast tissues with harmful radiation. Even when they spot breast cancer tumors, they aren't "preventing" breast cancer; they're merely detecting breast cancer. True prevention requires changes in food choice and lifestyle, not the use of imaging technology. See http://www.newstarget.com/000895.html Lie #4: Vitamins give you "expensive urine." Truth #4: The most expensive urine in the world is created by taking multiple overpriced prescription drugs, not vitamins. With more than 40% of the U.S. population now on prescription drugs, the drug content in human urine is now so high that trace amounts of antidepressant drugs can be found in public water supplies. Compared to drugs, vitamins are cheap prevention. See http://www.newstarget.com/001891.html Lie #5: The sun will give you cancer. Truth #5: The sun will prevent cancer due to the creation of vitamin D by the skin. Most Americans (and Canadians and Europeans, for that matter) are deficient in vitamin D. As a result, tumor cell growth in the breast and prostate is unregulated. Sensible exposure to natural sunlight generates cancer-preventing vitamin D... at no charge! Sunburns are actually caused by nutritional deficiencies (lack of antioxidants in the skin), not by sensible exposure to sunlight. See http://www.newstarget.com/Vitamin_D.html Lie #6: CT scans (CAT scans) are perfectly safe. Truth #6: CT scans expose patients to 1000 times the radiation of chest X-rays. Repeated exposure to CT scans raises a patient's cumulative radiation to levels experienced by many hydrogen bomb victims in Hiroshima. In addition, rigorous studies have concluded that CT scans offer no medical benefit whatsoever. See http://www.newstarget.com/004060.html Lie #7: The U.S. health care system is the best in the world. Truth #7: The health of U.S. citizens is actually the worst of any industrialized nation. We pay double, triple, and even quadruple the price for prescription drugs as any other country. We also have the highest rates of obesity, Alzheimer's, cancer and diabetes, plus the highest health insurance costs in the world. The U.S. health care system ("sick care system") is so bad that people are fleeing the country to seek medical services in Asia. It's a trend called "medical tourism," and it's flourishing. See http://www.newstarget.com/007097.html Lie #8: All surgical procedures have been proven safe and effective. Truth #8: There is currently NO requirement whatsoever that surgical procedures must be either safe or effective in order to be practiced. Hundreds of thousands of medically unnecessary surgical procedures are performed each year in the U.S. alone, including hysterectomies and prostate cancer surgeries. See http://www.newstarget.com/002608.html Lie #9: You can get all the nutrition you need from three balanced meals a day. Truth #9: Today's foods are nutrient depleted, and they come from depleted soils. Processed and manufactured foods would have to be eaten at the rate of 10,000 calories a day just to meet minimum RDA requirements for basic nutrition (see related ebook on nutrition). The only way to get adequate nutrition is to supplement with superfoods or whole food concentrates (vitamins, whole food powders, supplement capsules, etc.) along with eating healthy meals. Organizations like the AHA, however, insist that nutrient supplementation is actually bad for your health. See http://www.newstarget.com/001587.html Lie #10: All these lab tests are for your own good. Truth #10: At least half of all diagnostic tests ordered by doctors are medically unnecessary. They're often conducted merely to generate revenues for the hospital or medical group that owns the doctor's clinic. Some doctors are actually required to generate a certain dollar amount of lab test revenues in order to keep their jobs.

Thank you so much for sharing this.I am saving this. I wish I could share more knowledge with y'all. This group has very much opened my eyes. I wanted to mention that due to my hubby losing his job, and only, having a part time job, we have No health insurance for us. We got some inexpensive insurance for my daughter. It scares me just in case an emergency happens. We just can not afford it. Do any of you have any advice on this. Both my hubby and I are very healthy. Neither of us are on any prescriptions.

Hi,

I've lived without health insurance most of my life as do many

people. Keep in mind people have lived without health insurance for

most of humanity's history. We have to take personal responsibility

for our own health and not give our power away to others for that.

There are things I do to put that into motion, like eating healthier

(which isn't a problem because it tastes better than that processed

crap) and working safer (ALWAYS wearing eye protection when running a

saw, being concious of my biomechanics when doing a lift, etc). Right

now I take my panther piss and codliver oil and bee pollen every

morning and play with herbs a lot. These types of actions and a

POSITIVE ATTITUDE do far more for your health than a fearbased

insurance scam that the establishment runs to profit off people's

suffering. Not that I'm opposed to insurance and having hospitals,

it's just that I take responsibility for how I think, feel, and do.

I too liked the 10 lies write up. I think an unspoken lie is

defining our health care system as the medical system. Health

involves a positive state of mind, physical fitness, and

skills/knowledge such as what this site provides. The more knowledge

we have the more choices we can make. That what it boils down to, we

make CHOICES.

Dawn, I have not had insurance on myself or my child for years. Hubby has it but it is through work. Course if they decide to implement their "cholesterol + test" at work, then he will be dropped when he refuses that and a few other free tests they offer.

 

We trust our bodies to speak to us. I have not seen a doctor in many many years. DS saw a dentist almost two years ago (has another appointment 7/14), and dh saw a doctor about two years ago also, twice in one week, for stitches. The doc charges 30 dollars no matter what he does if a client doesn't have insurance. Weird how insurance pays 65-95 dollars and without office visits are really inexpensive. Myself, I have always cleaned my wounds and taped them. Works for me. It comes-- LOL-- with my home tetanus inoculations---aka accidents/rips/gashes/jabs on the farm. I stay inoculated.

 

My only advice is to live the herbal remedy/holistic health way from the get-go. Smile and laugh allot. Happy people don't usually get sick. People who worry do get sick--so don't. Don't anticipate problems, it is like inviting them. Just supplement immunity and health. You should be fine.

Hi Doc

I am sorry, but I cannot agree with you totally.

Lie # 1:

I agree that script drugs cannot make you healthier, however, some of them can indeed save your life.

Lie #2, I totally agree with your with your assessment on this one.

Lie #3, I agree that Mammograms cannot prevent Cancer in the way you describe, but they can and indeed do detect growths that maybe be a cancererous growth.

Lie #4, I totally agree with your description, however, Vitamins taken without thought can and indeed do cause problems, i.e..e Vit. A & Vit E taken without careful thought can kill you, as can Vit. K.

Lie #5, With the very large hole in the Ozone layer, in the upper atmosphere, especially in Australasia, can and indeed does cause skin cancer.

Lie #6, CAT scans have saved thousands of lives, especially those who have brain tumours, without CAT scans, they have no chance.

Lie #7, I totally agree with you on this one. The best health care systems in the world are in the UK and Sweden.

Lie #8, Yes, not all surgical procedures are safe and indeed some are wasted. However, without my heart bypass, I would be dead now!.

Lie #9, I agree with you on this one with the exception of taking vitamins and other herbs without knowing what they do to you without knowing what dosage one should take. Most people have not a clue to what their RDA should be.

Lie #10, I do not agree with you here. Without a lab test and indeed a biopsy, my wife would never have known that she had Hepatitis C.

 

Note!.

I am a Brit, and married to a beautiful American lady. I believe our Heath system to be one of the best in the world. My wife has told me horrendous stories about the US so called health system and to my mind, it stinks of money making from the ill and infirm.

Please keep up your good work.

Kind regards

I had no health insurance most of my adult life (50 some years). I wish I had dental insurance because I have had gum/teeth problems and, although my dentist gives me a break, things like root canals etc. can get expensive. I now have health insurance (but not dental) because 2 years ago I was offered something very very affordable. I've only used it once for an emergency accident. I think it's something nice to have, "just in case", but for many years I lived without it and got along fine. I have a friend in AZ who has no health insurance and he just found out there is state program that will pay for his tests and prescriptions. They may even pay for other medical situations.You have to make under a certain income, but apparently these little known programs exist if you ever need them. He's lived there for over 5 years and never knew about it. It isn't welfare. I don't know what category it falls under.

I have a friend that is going out of the country to have his dental work

done since it is less expensive. If I run into him in the next few

days, I'll try to find out more. It sounds like he has done some

research on this.

This is all so very true.

 

prescription drugs are poison. Today on the news they were talking

about Viagra making men blind. Then they proceded to tell how many

millions of dollars medicaid spends on Viagra and even for sex

offenders. But they won't help me buy the herbs and other natural

therapies I need for my breast cancer.
