(NaturalNews) The number of famous people dying at the hands of conventional medical doctors is increasing at an alarming rate. Today comedian Bernie Mac (best known for appearing in
Oceans Eleven and
The Bernie Mac Show) died following hospitalization and treatment for pneumonia. At the young age of 50, Bernie Mac joins an increasing roster of other notable celebrities who have died while being treated with conventional pharmaceuticals or chemotherapy: Heath Ledger, Peter Jennings, Tim Russert and many more.
Pneumonia is the name given to a common
infection that fails to be properly handled by the body's own
immune system. Bernie Mac's immune system, it turns out, was suppressed by
pharmaceuticals due to treatments for an autoimmune
disorder he was previously diagnosed with, called
sarcoidosis.
The most common
treatments for sarcoidosis are dangerous steroids (like Prednisone) or immune system suppressing drugs like Methotrexate. Following his
treatment with one or both of these pharmaceuticals, Bernie Mac was described as having his sarcoidosis go into "remission." That's conventional medicine's code word for masking symptoms with dangerous
chemicals while ignoring the underlying cause of the
disease.
"Sarcoidosis," meanwhile, is just a fancy-sounding name for an out-of-control autoimmune response caused by an imbalanced immune system which is disrupted by dietary imbalances and exposure to
toxic chemicals through
processed foods, pharmaceuticals, personal care products and other environmental sources (like pesticides or cleaning solvents). Bernie Mac didn't really
have sarcoidosis; he was merely given that label by
doctors who attached a fancy name to a pattern of
symptoms that Bernie Mac expressed.
How doctors destroyed Bernie Mac's immune system
Rather than addressing the underlying causes of his autoimmune disorders, doctors pumped him up with more chemicals that suppressed his immune system. From there,
Bernie Mac was a pneumonia case just waiting to happen, because at that point he was walking around with a suppressed immune system.
In my opinion, this is why Bernie Mac has now passed away: Because his doctors destroyed his immune system and called it "treatment" for a disease, practically guaranteeing that he would be vulnerable to
infections. Meanwhile, doctors completely ignored the underlying lifestyle factors that Bernie should have been told were causing his symptoms in the first place.
Bernie Mac was a brilliant comedian. He was wildly entertaining in
Oceans Eleven,
Oceans Twelve and other movies in which he appeared.
He radiated a likeable charm and possessed a captivating wit both on and off the screen. Sadly, conventional medicine's dangerous
medications have hastened his
death and taken from us an uplifting artist who could have lived another 20 - 30 years if he had not has his life stolen from him by
modern medicine.
Modern medicine takes another talented soul from our world
Modern medical treatments are the leading cause of death in the western world, surpassing even the number of people killed by cancer. That's because most cancer
deaths, of course, are actually "deaths by medicine." It is the
chemotherapy that kills the patient before the cancer! Individuals who put their faith in modern
medicine are playing roulette with their lives, and many of them pay the ultimate price for that misplaced faith.
So what should Bernie Mac have done instead? It's simple: Visit a naturopath, get off all the chemicals and medications, eliminate all the junk from his diet (processed
foods, etc.) and transition to a mostly plant-based
diet rich in superfoods and living foods. His lung condition would have disappeared and his immune system would have been strong enough to withstand common infections. (He also would have experienced increased energy and lost some excess
body fat.)
But doctors never told Bernie Mac this information.
They never even gave him the option to be healthy. Doctors are predominantly in the business of causing the deaths of
patients through a process of authoritative ignorance -- keeping patients unaware of
natural alternatives, and thereby forcing them to rely on toxic treatments that unfortunately harm more people than they help.
I truly believe that Bernie Mac would be alive right now if he had been given the option to pursue natural medicine (which BOOSTS immune function) rather than conventional medicine (with DESTROYS immune function).
Bernie Mac will be missed.
