"Western Medicine:" The World
Has Suffered Enough...

The five components of Western Medicine
are guilty, in my opinion, of more crimes against humanity than any other
entity in mankind's history. As we sit here, the very structure of western
civilization is at risk because of the sheer murderous greed of the number
(1) component of Western Medicine - Big Pharma. Health Care costs in the the
US and Europe have gone over the top, just because Big Pharma thinks it's OK
to gouge. US Seniors on a limited income have to make choices between food
or drugs each month. The Vioxx scandal points out just how murderous Big
Pharma executives can become, in the name of profit.
So many drugs are pushed through the
average American's body each month that our water supply now contains a
plethora of pharmaceuticals, simply because our sewer plant systems are
unequipped, and were never designed to filter out any laboratory produced
drugs, much less the volume it is faced with. The number (2) component, the
American Hospital System, is the number one killer of Americans, with 783,936
deaths annually. If you have to check a loved one into a hospital, plan on
staying with them 24 hours a day - or there's a good chance you'll get them
back in a bag. The number (3) component, the health insurance insurance
industry, charges you for a Rolls Royce, but delivers the K-Mart Blue Light
special.
The number (4) component, the
Regulatory System for health care is completely corrupt. The FDA, and the
State Health Practitioner Regulatory Boards, are a waste of time. The FDA,
recently, admitted that it can't protect Americans. Medical boards are
"Good Ole Boy" clubs designed to protect bad practitioners. The number
(5) component, the
"quackbuster" operation, designed, and operated to inflict damage on
competitors to components (1) and (2), has never been truly analyzed to
determine the damage they've inflicted on North America. But, that's
beginning.
These five components of Western
Medicine, make up the "Status Quo" in health care. The "Status Quo, holds in
place expensive, but fruitless medical offerings, and prevents any research,
findings, paradigms, etc., that compete for health dollars. The same "status
Quo" is responsible, by its policies, for the numbers two, three, and four
causes of death in America - Heart Disease, Cancer, and Stroke. Western
medicine is ONLY about drugs, drugs, more drugs, surgery, and radiation.
And, it's killing us.
Thank
God it's ALL coming down...
The number (1) component of Western
Medicine - Big Pharma, is on its way out. They've reached the self destruct
mode. Doubt that? Than you're not reading the newspapers, or listening to
the financial news.. The number (2) component, the American Hospital System
is just beginning the slide down the slippery slope. The days are over when
they could slide through the body fluids of their victims heading for the
Mercedes Benz parking lot. Just a few days ago, a major Los Angeles hospital
lost its accreditation in an inspection. I predict that this will happen a
lot more.
The number (3) component, the health
insurance insurance industry, is about to lose, due to the new Bush
administration "health plan," a fortune in business. All they'll have to
offer is "catastrophic" insurance. The number (4) component, the Regulatory
System for health care is completely corrupt. We know that. The FDA, and
the State Health Practitioner Regulatory Boards, are a waste of time. We
know that. But all that is under pressure - and the change is beginning. The
number (5) component, the
"quackbuster" operation, designed, and operated to inflict damage on
competitors to components (1) and (2), is falling apart. They're heading for
an incinerator.
The future of health care is up for grabs...
So, what will happen? That's the question.
Stay tuned...

DRUG THERAPY
http://www.healmarketplace.com/herbs/htnp2.html
If you have a headache, the doctor prescribes aspirin. The headache disappears
and everyone is happy. No one ever asked the question, "What caused the
headache?". Based on the treatment prescribed and the resultant "cure", we can
conclude that the headache was caused by an "aspirin deficiency". However, a
little research will tell us that aspirin is composed of salicylic acid - an
absolute poison to the body, thus an "aspirin deficiency" is out of the
question. In fact, any drug on the market, we will find, is composed of chemical
toxins which are poisonous to humans. How then can drugs alleviate symptoms,
cure ills, wipe out disease and generally make us feel better if they are
poisonous?
To understand how drugs "cure" symptoms, let us look a little deeper into how
aspirin takes away a pain. Did you know that aspirin will relieve any pain in
the body, whether it be a headache or a toe ache? The only exception to this is
stomach pain. Aspirin will not help stomach pain. Ask the pharmacist how aspirin
works, he will tell you that it has some sort of numbing effect over the entire
body, so regardless of where the pain is, it is relieved. But isn't the stomach
part of the body? Why doesn't aspirin take care of stomach pain? He will reply
that this is one of the great mysteries of aspirin.
Let's say you are out on the farm hunting and you get a thorn in your finger. It
is quite sore, so you decide to head back to your truck to get some tweezers to
take care of the problem. As you pass through the barn yard you step on a nail.
Do you still feel the pain of the thorn in your finger, in fact do you even
remember it is there? Was it suddenly cured when you stepped on the nail? No,
not at all. Then why is the thorn no longer a concern? Simply because your body
now has a higher priority - something more life threatening to worry about - the
nail in the foot.
Then as you are passing through the barbed wire fence to finally reach your
truck, you shoot your toe off with the shotgun (the other foot of course). Are
you now aware of the thorn? No. How about the hole in your foot from the rusty
nail. I don't think so. Why not? Once again the body shifted its focus to the
most life threatening situation. There is only x amount of energy in the body.
If we create a crisis in one part of the body, energy must be "borrowed" from
other parts of the body to cope with the crisis.
Every aspirin (buffered or not) causes a teaspoon worth of bleeding in the
stomach. If you have a headache, which is generally caused by toxic blood from
something we've eaten which is harmful to us, and you take an aspirin causing
internal bleeding, which do you think would be more life threatening? In most
cases the internal bleeding. The body must now shift its attention to the higher
priority problem (stomach), and the headache disappears. Did the aspirin remove
the toxins from the blood stream? Not at all, just created a more life
threatening situation.
If the aspirin does not take away the headache, it simply means that the
internal bleeding is not more life threatening than the toxic blood. So now take
six aspirin, and a more life theatening situation will take place in the stomach
and the headache dissipates.
Why doesn't aspirin take care of stomach pain? If you have stomach pain then
your body's attention is already focused on the stomach. Additional stress there
will not force the body to shift its attention elsewhere in the body. Tylenol,
however, will alleviate stomach pain because it plays havoc with the liver,
causing the body to move its attention from stomach to liver. Thus all drugs
produce symptomatic relief without actually removing the cause.
A drug "cures" your complaint by creating a disease of its own. If the poison of
the drug, whatever drug you want to name, is more life threatening to the body
than the symptom for which you took the drug (or the doctor's prescription for
such), then your symptoms will disappear. If the drug is not more life
threatening, then it will not produce symptomatic relief and the doctor will
prescribe a stronger, more poisonous, more life threatening drug. Now the body
will be forced to focus on the drug so that the drug literally doesn't kill the
body. You become symptom free. Yet the cause of the disease was not eliminated,
and true healing did not take place. Since there is no such thing as a drug
deficiency, the body simply put the disease process on hold to eliminate the
drug.
How many children do you know that take antibiotics for infections? The
antibiotic stops the symptoms. As soon as the antibiotic is stopped, the
infection returns. It is because the antibiotic does not kill the infection,
rather the antibiotic is so toxic to the liver and rest of the body, that the
body must wall off, or put on "hold" the infective process to deal with the drug
before it kills the body. Once the drug is dealt with, the body will, as soon as
it has built up adequate nutrients and energies, resume the cleansing process
via the infection. If the taking of the antibiotic was so devitalizing to the
body, lowering its frequency, the infection may not return, only a more serious
chronic disease at a later date.
One of the great laws of nature is the law of cause and effect. We do not gain
anything without working for it. Diseases are not "caught", they are earned by
not taking care of our bodies. How then can we not stop doing the wrong that
made us sick, take a drug and get well? It is the same as the drunk saying,
"Sober me up with a pill, but let me keep drinking". Impossible to do. Disease
is no exception.
When anesthetic is administered to knock one out for surgery, the same principle
applies. The anesthetic is so poisonous to the body, that the body must put
itself to sleep to free up the tremendous amount of energy that is used for
consciousness. This energy is then utilized to eliminate the toxic anesthetic
from the body before it causes death.
Why do you think people are so sick and groggy after surgery. Why do something
like 2% of people who undergo surgery die from the anesthetic if it weren't a
poison? Different drugs rob energy from different parts of the body, thus they
have various effects or "cure" different symptoms.
The bottom line is that they rob energy from the body, change the body's
priorities to focus on the drug - a more life threatening situation - and the
cause is not eliminated. We are actually still sick, just as some must stay on
drugs a lifetime to stay symptom free, constantly increasing the dose as they
become sicker and sicker. Others are "cured" by the drug and can stop taking it,
only to face another more serious disease down the road.
If we would just listen to the body when we become ill, let the illness tell us
our symptoms are due to something wrong we are doing (wrong diet or life style),
stop doing it, then the illness as well as the need for drugs would be
eliminated and a more healthy life would result.
Side-Effects
"Side-effects" which often result when drugs are administered are the body's
effort at eliminating the drug. Eg.: breaking out in a skin rash - body pushing
drug out through skin, getting drowsy - body conserving conscious energy in
order to stay alive while eliminating the drug.
The Logic of Drug Therapy
Drug therapy defies all logic when we consider that any drug administered to a
healthy person will make him sick, and yet the doctor prescribes these very
poisons to a sick person and expects him to get well. How can a body be poisoned
back to health?
"We have allowed (the drugs) industry to subvert the rules of science. We have
watched quietly as governments and academics have colluded with industry to hide
information critical to our patients. We have remained silent as our medical
schools have churned out graduates who have no knowledge of the dilemmas and
scandals of medicine. We have allowed many of our medical journals to become
corrupted and timid," - Dr Aubrey Blumsohn
