doctors (was: Transition to raw)

[Guest guest]

Grrrr! I think doctors have their place in society today, but so many people

put ALL their faith in their doctors! It just annoys me to suggest something

to a friend and they say " Well, let me see what my doctor says about that. "

or " I can't try that because my doctor says to do this. " I just want to

scream " IT'S YOUR BODY, YOU CHOOSE YOUR TREATMENT!!! " I think doctors are

great for diagnosing and in some cases perhaps (for some people) treating or

at least offering different options, but they get paid so much from drug

companies to offer 'trial drugs' so you can be a guinnea pig! That should be

recognized as a conflict of interest at the very least. I could go on all

day, but the bottom line is money. They (drug companies included) are trying

to make another dollar, not get people well. They are trained very little,

if any, in nutrition and are taught to treat the symptoms and not the

problem! If they actually had a cure for the common cold, for example, that

would really hurt their business! So they go on treating the symptoms, then

you get side affects, then they treat those symptoms, then more side

affects, etc. It's an endless cycle that continues to give them job security

(and create more jobs). It just makes me mad to think about it, so I'd

better stop now.

This thing about eating meat with the AMA people.!!!! It's how Hilary and

Bill got rich....beef stocks. I am a diabetic and was completely vegan for

a year. Then the AMA found out I had diabetes and I got told to quit

carbing it so much and eat more meat. At the time they discovered my

diabetes the number <fbs> was 119!!!!! Before they lowered the guidlines

140 used to be the cut off number. So I went back to meat as told to do by

my doctor. No matter what I did my numbers kept climbing......... and the

meds kept getting switched around til finally I shrugged it all off~~~~

going to be diabetic if I did eat meat and diabetic if I

don't................ so guess what I am attempting to do again???????????

Talk about them killing the goose that laid the golden egg!! I've had it!!

I struggle like you but I tell you something my numbers were WORSE after

going back to meat!!!!! An average 30 day fbs number of 119 is not a bad

number if I can ever get back to that. I think it's <american medicine &

big drug companies > all about making money these days and NOTHING to do

with helping and caring for others.It's all about manipulating the masses

and making HUGE amounts of money. One has to dive deep and do what feels

good to *YOU* to do. One has to watch very closely what works and then do

it!
