You: Staying Young: The Owner's Manual for Extending Your Warranty Mehmet C. Oz., M.D. and Michael F. Roizen, M.D. See book keywords and concepts

Yeah, we know what you're saying: All your little tribesmen stories might make good fodder for a campflre and med school reunions, but what the heck are you going to do about my hot flashes, Doc? We hear you. We're not saying that you need to just accept a drop in hormone levels and an increase in life-altering side effects. What we want you to do is acknowledge the fact that aging occurs for a reason, and that reason may actually be good for society. When it comes to your hormones, the problems—as we'll talk about in the following chapters—happen when they fluctuate too much or decrease.

The Most Effective Natural Cures on Earth: The Surprising, Unbiased Truth about What Treatments Work and Why Jonny Bowden, Ph.D., C.N.S. See book keywords and concepts

Today From the time medical students enter med school to the time they retire, their lives (and continuing education) are influenced by pharmaceutical companies. The companies buy them lunch when they're starving residents putting in ninety-hour weeks and can barely afford cafeteria fare. They give them gifts. (Take a look at the prescription pad your doctor uses or the paperweight on his desk. That's just the tip of the iceberg.) They sponsor and fund the research they read and the journals that publish it.

My best friend in med school was a vet," Petterson says, "and that's what they always do when an animal is sick. They withdraw food and let them sleep. That's what an animal does in the wild, and that's what your dog does if he's sick. He stops eating and sleeps a lot. He instinctively knows that's what it takes to heal." As in many areas of life, we can learn a lot from our dogs. The lesson here is that your body has a natural tendency to heal itself, a fact that many of us seem to have forgotten. Natural medicine simply helps that process along.

The Killing of California Almonds (and why dead foods lead to dead people) Mike Adams, the Health Ranger See article keywords and concepts

Medical doctors still aren't taught nutrition in med school, and the whole raw foods movement is only starting to gain mainstream momentum. Sure, in twenty years, most people will understand there's a huge difference between living foods and dead foods, but right now, most health authorities and consumers are stuck in the world of immutable macronutrients that have no "living" properties whatsoever.

New research shows vitamin D slashes risk of cancers by 77 percent; cancer industry refuses to support cancer prevention Mike Adams, the Health Ranger See article keywords and concepts

And curing cancer is a threat to all the criminals participating in that industry: The non-profit employees, oncologists, doctors, federal regulators, drug company executives, med school propaganda teachers, pharmaceutical reps and many others. These people cannot allow cancer to be prevented or cured. Their jobs and careers are at stake. Another outstanding source for learning more about the evils of the cancer industry is G. Edward Griffin. Click here to read our article about Griffin or click here for his website.

The new rules of imperialism: Economic warfare, consumer products and disease exports Mike Adams, the Health Ranger See article keywords and concepts

Chinese medicine, for example, is routinely discredited in China by arrogant Chinese doctors who went to med school in America then returned home to betray their own fellow citizens. Drug companies see China's one billion people as nothing more than revenue-generating patients, and convincing all those people to take more medicines will require a well-planned, well-funded economic and philosophical assault on Chinese medicine.

Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma prevented by natural sunlight, but doctors still don't teach it Mike Adams, the Health Ranger See article keywords and concepts

The vast majority of the physicians, researchers, med school teachers, and university professors still teach people that they need to avoid the sun because it will kill them. This bad information results in the untimely disease and death of countless people around the world. People need to hear the opposite information. They need to learn the true link between ultraviolet radiation, the creation of vitamin D, and the prevention of chronic disease.

Vitamin D myths, facts and statistics Mike Adams, the Health Ranger See article keywords and concepts

Shocking Vitamin D deficiency statistics: 32% of doctors and med school students are vitamin D deficient. 40% of the U.S. population is vitamin D deficient. 42% of African American women of childbearing age are deficient in vitamin D. 48% of young girls (9-11 years old) are vitamin D deficient. Up to 60% of all hospital patients are vitamin D deficient. 76% of pregnant mothers are severely vitamin D deficient, causing widespread vitamin D deficiencies in their unborn children, which predisposes them to type 1 diabetes, arthritis, multiple sclerosis and schizophrenia later in life.

Drug companies allegedly defraud state Medicaid programs with 54,000% markups Mike Adams, the Health Ranger See article keywords and concepts

The so-called "free market" system of organized medicine is really only free and open to those organizations that control the media propaganda, FDA decision makers, medical journal content and med school agendas. And, of course, those are the organizations with the big bucks. What we're increasingly learning is that they got the big bucks by defrauding customers and hyping drugs with fatal side effects that they knew were dangerous long before now. In other words, it's blood money.

As cold fusion events demonstrate, modern science is ruled by conformity, not the search for scientific truth Mike Adams, the Health Ranger See article keywords and concepts

If you challenge the beliefs of your professors in med school, they're going to fail you. If you challenge your mentors during residency training, they are not going to support your continued training. If you challenge the beliefs of your peers in the scientific community, you are not going to get published. This is how today's system of conventional medicine ("scientific medicine") suppresses the emergence of new ideas and new theories that could produce true breakthroughs in our understanding of health, medicine, science and the nature of the universe.

Study shows the public is turning to alternative medicine and away from dangerous prescription drugs Mike Adams, the Health Ranger See article keywords and concepts

I love the fact that all of the organized medicine researchers and med school doctors who graduated from these alternate realities say that alternative medicines and therapies are unproven. What are they talking about? We have more than 5,000 years of documented history of herbs being used safely throughout China, Japan, Europe and even South America. We have acupuncture and its proven clinical use in China. We have naturopathic physicians, massage therapists and chiropractors today with literally millions of hours of clinical observations on what works for patients.

Plant-based diet greatly reduces risk of cancer, say studies Mike Adams, the Health Ranger See article keywords and concepts

That's why med school graduates are generally clueless about nutrition and disease prevention.) All this leads us to a startling realization, which is that we now have a system of medicine based on a collection of clinical evidence that was derived from studying how unhealthy, chronically diseased, malfunctioning human bodies respond to certain chemicals. That's what we have today. So when people call it evidence based medicine, it's actually not based on any realistic evidence of how healthy bodies might respond. It's all based on running clinical trials with diseased individuals.

The Diabetes Cure : A Natural Plan That Can Slow, Stop, Even Cure Type 2 Diabetes Dr. Vern Cherewatenko and Paul Perry See book keywords and concepts

I was forty pounds heavier than I had been when I left for med school. I had gained ten pounds per month. Jill continued to talk to me, but all I could hear in my mind was the classic quote from Luke: "Physician, heal thyself." The sad thing was that I didn't heal myself, not right away, at any rate. I continued to gain weight until I weighed 318 pounds, and then I did something about it. I had been diagnosed with borderline diabetes and given a glucose control drug to lessen the effects of glucose imbalance.

The Medical Racket Martin L. Cross See book keywords and concepts

The false theory also protects those among the white and Asian male students who perform poorly as well. Med school's laxity is absolutely unbiased. By now one would hope that the licensing exam would catch the incompetent young physicians—of whatever gender or race—even if the school lets them graduate for social and political reasons. Unfortunately, it will not. On its surface, the three-step licensing test sounds impressive: Step One: At the end of the second year, the students take the United States Medical Licensing Exam (USMLE) on their command of biomedical knowledge.
