Grocery Warning: How to recognize and avoid the groceries that cause cancer, diabetes, heart disease, high cholesterol, high blood pressure, and other common diseases Mike Adams See book keywords and concepts

William Duffy, Sugar Blues Conventionally trained modern doctors seem no wiser, by the way. When they see a pattern of symptoms that should clearly be identified as an obvious nutritional cause (such as Attention Deficit Disorder), they rarely consider the dietary causes and, instead, proceed to write prescriptions in order to mask the symptoms of the "disease." It's sort of like seeing that your yard needs water because it's turning brown and then going to the hardware store to buy green paint rather than simply watering your lawn.

The four steps to getting more vitamin D to prevent cancer, osteoporosis, depression and more Mike Adams, the Health Ranger See article keywords and concepts

This is information that doesn't get told to senior citizens, and modern doctors don't even understand it. They think that you treat osteoporosis with drugs, which is ridiculous. The only thing you need in order to treat osteoporosis is sunlight, calcium and a little bit of physical exercise. You will rebuild bone mineral density very rapidly on that kind of program. The bottom line: Get some sun on your skin Make sure that you're getting sunlight on your skin. If you do this one thing, and do it consistently, it will create such a positive health outcome.

Experiment shows medical doctors to be glorified drug dealers, easily manipulated by drug companies Mike Adams, the Health Ranger See article keywords and concepts

A true scientist runs experiments, or asks questions and tries to get nature to provide some answers. But modern doctors, medical researchers, drug company executives, and FDA bureaucrats think they've conquered nature. They have egos so big it's amazing they can walk through doors. They think they are better than nature. They think they can overtake the nature of your body, overriding the chemistry. They think they can run your immune system, or that they can declare war on your body, attacking it with chemotherapy, radiation and other highly toxic therapies.

Acomplia drug hype reveals mythology of prescription drugs, shortcut philosophy of American culture Mike Adams, the Health Ranger See article keywords and concepts

People may be harmed by Acomplia in ways that modern doctors and the makers of Acomplia cannot foresee. And when that happens, the very people who are taking the drug will then turn around and blame the drug companies for their problems! Because once again, the takers of the drugs are taking on the role of the victim. They believe they have been victimized by bad genes. They have been victimized by having bad luck in getting chronic diseases like diabetes and heart disease.

In fact, the placebo effect may be one of the most powerful healing tools in our arsenal, and yet modern doctors foolishly toss it out as useless. In truth, the placebo effect may become an important tool in the future of medicine, once we finally get past the Dark Ages of modern medicine in which we live today and make room for the emergence of new, advanced ideas in healing.

Vibrational Medicine: The #1 Handbook of Subtle-Energy Therapies Richard Gerber, M.D. See book keywords and concepts

Because of great strides in technology and organic chemistry, digitalis (or rather its synthetic counterpart, digoxin) is now manufactured in test tubes and beakers. modern doctors have dispensed with the plant source of digitalis in favor of the pure synthetic drug. Utilizing synthetic digoxin, exact dosages based on a patient's body weight and age may be given. Blood levels of the drug can be easily monitored for maximum therapeutic vs. toxic effects. In a sense, drug therapy is a cleaner form of herbal medicine.

Do We Still Need Doctors?: A Physician's Personal Account of Practicing Medicine Today John D. Lantos, M.D. See book keywords and concepts

There was tension between the modern doctors in the hospitals, who wanted to set up immunization programs, and the traditional healers, who reportedly delivered babies at home, cut their umbilical cords with a rusty knife, and dressed the wounds with spider webs. The Nigerian doctors I worked with were from the villages, but they had been educated in Europe and the United States and had come back with the firm convictions of any religious convert. My time in Nigeria shaped my career, but not in straightforward ways. I saw how pitifully easy it would be to save lives.

It is not easy to suppress the impulse to ask questions about the meaning of illness or suffering or death, but such questions cannot be answered by experiment, and modern doctors learn to ignore answers that have not passed the appropriate epistemological screening tests. By this process, whole traditions and alternative ways of thinking about the world, our place in it, and the meanings of faith and truth and health are not so much opposed as they are simply invalidated. That vision for medicine was itself once articulated in a novel.

Breast Cancer? Breath Health! The Wise Woman Way Susun S. Weed See book keywords and concepts

References: 7, 10, 12, 21 See Burdock, Sheep Sorrel, Slippery Elm, Turkey Rhubarb Most modern doctors scoff at the idea that herbs could cure cancer. Fifty years ago, a Canadian nurse, Rene Caisse, found it just as difficult to believe. But when a patient claimed to have cured herself of breast cancer with herbs from an Ojibwa medicine man, Caisse experimented with them, and eventually offered them—as Essiac (her name backwards)—to thousands of people with cancer. Her results?

Principles and Practice of Phytotherapy: Modern Herbal Medicine Simon Mills and Kerry Bone See book keywords and concepts

Almost everything now prescribed by modern doctors would have been classified as cooling. There was one striking exception to the cautions linking cooling to reduced vitality. As referred to in the Galenic classification, the most gentle category of cooling remedy (those 'cold in the first degree') did 'qualify the heat of the stomach and cause digestion'. Digestion was widely seen as a cooling activity, marked of course by a shift of blood flow from the periphery to the core (so that excessive exercise after a big meal can lead to cramps).
