Ok. go to your wellness dr and have at it. I hope they have the latest technology to treat your heart attack and can take your appendix out when it goes bad — or are you like the millions of others that do natural medicine the. come running to conventional medicine abs berate is for not being able to fix years of neglect instantly?
I have people who have done coffee enemas for their treatable cancer until it is no longer treatable the. show up to the hospital 90% dead and are shocked and angry that I can do nothing for them. So I hope you don’t really need one of us a holes as you call us one day
Not many health nuts that express contempt for “conventional medicine” are crazy enough to run to the health food store if they are bitten by a rabid fox. If they do it will cost them their life. They will also come around to conventional medicine for trauma injuries and conditions that bring about severe pain.
I had an idiot conventional MD recommend heart meds 25 years ago, after a 2 minute consultation, because I had a little white coat syndrome. Another d***head endocrinologist had his drug sales rep sit through my entire private consultation. She was hot, but she had no right to be there. It was so heartwarming to know that the hot babe with no medical training got to participate in the appt.
Speaking of heart trouble, you people are partially responsible for the explosion of heart disease. Anyone who has listened to Dr Sinatra, a real MD and brilliant cardiologist who takes a wellness approach, knows that the conventional approach is 99% nuts.
As to cancer, our rates are much higher than the rest of the world. And probably 80% of the population is diabetic or pre-diabetic (the top of the pyramid for disease). All brought about by big Pharma, big Medica, big Agri and biotechnology. You people don’t solve anything.
The rare exception is trauma care and surgeons. Best in the world. They’re not stupid.
“I hope they have the latest technology to treat your heart attack and can take your appendix out when it goes bad”
That is silly. There are conditions nutrition and diet won’t solve - like a broken arm or a stab wound. But there are a LOT of things that can be largely solved - diabetes & many heart problems. And there are many more where diet and nutrition and exercise can greatly improve the odds - like COVID.
Who has better odds with COVID - a physically fit man or a lumbering hippo?
The doctor who wanted to put me on statins based 100% on “Your total cholesterol is 201” was an idiot. Blood pressure is fine. Low triglycerides. Pulse is 55. My gut is half the size of his. But when he started reading the lab results to me - never having looked at them before entering the room - he wanted me to go on statins because my total cholesterol was 201! Just a mindless application of a number and a trust drugs are the solution.
It isn’t either/or. Not everything can be solved by diet, but a huge number of issues can be greatly improved by diet!
“because physicians can change peoples genetics and hobits?”
Don’t know about hobbits, but no, doctors cannot change people. However, they CAN stop giving guidance like “Try to eliminate all fat from your diet” - which is an almost guaranteed way to create fat people! They could stop telling people to eat bran muffins and praising high-carb diets!
Frankly, medical professionals could try to start with “Do no harm” - because right now, a lot of medical professionals are medically STUPID.
When we relocated and had to choose a Primary Care Physician the only one taking new patients was a DO. We weren’t sure how she would be, but we love her. She has no problem prescribing pharmaceuticals, but goes into the big overview of what can help naturally and logically as well.
We just learned she’s quitting in December to take care of her new baby so now we’re on the hunt again.
I have 2 docs...one is for structural issues, ie broken bones, heart attacks, etc” and the other is a wellness doc for prevention, or at least alternatives. I appreciate both.
