UPDATE, MARCH 2019.
We just learned of a new medical hazard in Canada. Hospitals in Canada are paid for each
operation they perform, and paid quite well for them. This has given rise to a type of corruption in which medical
practitioners receive kickbacks from hospitals if they refer people for
surgeries of any kind.
What occurs
is if a person goes to one of these ÒdoctorsÓ for any reason (and there are
many of them), the doctor may recommend surgery for questionable conditions in
order to receive a payoff.
WORSE
UNDER SOCIALIZED MEDICINE
Interestingly,
this type of corruption is worse in Canada, which has socialized medical care,
than in the USA, which has a more private health care system. The reason is that in the USA,
insurance companies pay for the surgery and they have a strong incentive to
check every surgery to make sure it is needed.
In Canada, the
government pays for the surgery and government bureaucrats have little or no
incentive to check up on the hospitals and doctors to see if the surgeries are
really needed. When the government
pays, if costs become too high, the government just raises taxes on the citizens. Some government workers also may
receive kickbacks so they will not investigate the questionable surgeries.

Modern
medical care is far better in some ways than it was 200 or even 150 years
ago. It is cleaner, some diseases
are much better understood, most medical personnel are caring, and surgery,
trauma care, childbirth and other situations are handled far better than they
were in times past.
However, and
in part due to the success of conventional medical care in the first half of
the 20th century, in particular, certain flaws in conventional care
that have been largely ignored for 100 years or more are now taking their toll
on populations around the world.
As a result, modern medical care has become a serious threat to health.
For example,
recent statistics show that the average chance of being harmed by conventional
medical care is about 9000 times greater than the chance of being harmed by gun
violence in America. This sounds
absurd, but it is a true statistic, based on the number of problems that occur
from allopathic medical care compared to the number of problems due to gun
violence in the USA – where guns are legal in many homes.
The hazards
of conventional medical care include: medical disease, labeling disease, fragmentation
disease, hospital-caused infections, drug poisoning, environmental pollution of
all our water supplies, and too often disabling mistakes. These problems occur all over the
world, regardless of whether the medical system is a fee-for-service system or
is government-run.
We believe
that these problems, which most people just accept, are not necessary and would
not occur if there were true medical freedom in America and in other
nations. America, in particular,
had a free market medical care system until around 1910 that provided far
better care without these problems.
Around 1910,
the fraudulent Flexner Report On Medical Education was issued, and more medical
licensing laws were imposed in America.
This shut out most of the competition to the drug system, or allopathic
system of medical care. Shut out
were systems of healing such as chiropractic, nature cure, herbalism, and
osteopathy that are much safer for the people and for the environment. They are also often more effective, as
well.
BACKGROUND FOR THIS ARTICLE
Before
discussing the topics of this article, let us begin with our understanding of
what is really going on in the health care field. We apologize if it sounds like a rant and a rave.
We observe that so-called modern medical care is one of the
most important causes of illness, disability and death today around the world. This is not just our view. Articles in several mainstream journals
such as the New
England Journal of Medicine and the Journal of the AMA rank the medical system as
the third leading causes of death and disability in America. The reasons for this include:
á
A very dysfunctional approach to disease based on diagnosing
disease entities rather than prevention. This approach is only one way to handle human illness, but
very few people realize this. For
example, nutritional balancing science often does not require a diagnosis of
disease. If this is shocking, it
is because you are brainwashed by drug companies, doctors and other public
health officials who only know the diagnose-and-drug approach to healing.
Most
diagnoses are just names and do not tell the doctor enough about the
problem. Some of the names are
scary and many are needlessly esoteric.
What is needed are simple explanations of the cause of a symptom, and
this is provided often by the simple hair tissue mineral analysis, when one
understands it. For example,
instead of a diagnosis of ÒarthritisÓ, a better description might be copper
toxicity, as revealed on a hair mineral test. This tells the practitioner what must be done to remove the
cause. One is no longer interested
in treating a label with pain killers that do not address the cause. One can address far deeper causes.
á
Almost 100% control of the profession by a cartel. A cartel is a relatively small
number of individuals or groups that have control of an industry. In this case, those in control include
the drug companies, the hospital and insurance companies, and the AMA and its
friends. All support the
diagnose-and-drug approach to health care exclusively.
á
A dysfunctional
and tyrannical legal approach to health care based on occupational licensing. This
is what keeps the diagnose-and-treat with drugs cartel in power. Many brilliant authors such as Milton
Friedman and Congressman Ron Paul have written that occupational licensing is
what holds the Òmedical cartelÓ in power, and nothing else. Otherwise, we would be years ahead in
health care, as America once was over 100 years ago. This topic is discussed in The Case Against
Medical Licensing on this website.
á
Gross ignorance
by the public, and health professionals regarding the importance of a healthy
lifestyle, oneÕs diet, and the need for basic food supplements for everyone.
á
Often gross
ignorance of the critical problem of toxic metals today and the need to test
everyone for them.
á Corruption and spreading of misinformation at all levels. For over 100 years, the medical cartel has engaged in a concerted effort to destroy their competition, which is the natural healing fields. They regularly use propaganda, fear, phony studies, phony arrests, payoffs and bribes to officials and legislators, fake advertising of drugs that should be banned, fake educational materials for doctors, medical students and the public, and even sheer violence against those who oppose them worldwide.
This
is amply documented in a number of books that are readily available. They have corrupted the FDA and FTC,
which have just become tools used to stop those who oppose the drug medicine
cartel, and they have thoroughly forgotten their role of protecting consumers.
á
As a result of all the above, medical care is
top-heavy and lopsided, with extreme dependency upon the use of toxic, patented
drug remedies and surgery.
Doctors are actually indoctrinated to believe that diet, lifestyle, and
simple, natural, non-patentable and therefore far less costly but less
profitable products do not work.
This is nothing short of insane.
á
A supreme
arrogance in some cases that blocks many doctors and public health officials
from learning about nutrition, lifestyle and other topics of which they know
very little.
á
A slavish
attitude on the part of the public that does not challenge the medical
professionÕs dangerous and often outrageously costly interventions.
Instead, people just demand that the government or insurance pay for
it. They do not realize that for
many conditions, far cheaper and better alternatives are readily available such
as nutritional balancing science.
RESULTS OF THE ABOVE
These are the
root causes of our health care systemÕs problems, not the need for more money,
more doctors, more nurses, more research, more drugs or more ÒcareÓ. As a result of the causes above, the
problems manifest in the following ways:
á
Hospital and clinic infections. These are often the result of the overuse of
antibiotics. Other reasons are the
use of more and more high-tech and costly machinery that is hard to keep clean,
and gross ignorance of basic hygienic principles taught by pioneers such as
Florence Nightingale. She taught
of the importance in hospitals of the best quality food, windows that are large
and open, fresh air, sunlight, ultraviolet and infrared to help kill germs, and
even certain aspects of cleanliness that are ignored in so-called modern
hospitals for various reasons.
á
Overprescribing of drugs and drug toxicity with often
disastrous consequences. While it is
rarely reported in the media because drug advertising pays for so much of it,
roughly 100,00 people die annually just from NSAIDS, or non-steroidal
anti-inflammatory drugs, for example.
Doctors know that adverse drug reactions are widely underreported and
the cause of death is often given as something else. Other classes of drugs also cause tens of thousands of
unnecessary deaths and disability each year in all Western nations that use
them. Those that do not die are
made more toxic and sick by the use of most drugs.
á
Horrendous
prenatal and post-natal care of children. This causes thousands of
unnecessary birth defects, complications of pregnancy, and worst of all,
disease and nutritional disaster in the babies and children who then grow up to
be even more unhealthy.
á
Vaccine damage
– among the worst features of ÒmodernÓ allopathic medicine. This is discussed in separate articles on this website. It is such a horror I am amazed the
public does not rebel against it more.
The worst, by far, are multiple vaccines either in one injection or in
separate injections given at the same time. These easily overwhelm the immune and other systems of the
bodies of young children, in particular, and are causing a virtual epidemic of
autism and many other childhood conditions today. They also introduce many more toxins such as aluminum,
mercury, formaldehyde and others into the most vulnerable members of society,
our children.
á
Errors, mainly
in hospitals but also in doctorsÕ offices and clinics. These
can cost one a life, or a kidney, or cause some other disability. Some of this is inevitable in a large
institution. However, much of it
is not inevitable. It is due to
sloppiness, the use of many dangerous drugs and procedures, fatigue of nurses,
doctors and interns who are sometimes on a 12-hour shift, cost-cutting because
the whole system is collapsing, and often brain fog or spaciness of doctors and
nurses because they are so ill.
The cause is not a need for electronic medical records, as the government
contends. Nor is the cause a need
for more licensing, which is the other solution proposed by the
establishment. Licensing, we
observe, is a root cause of the problem because it control the doctors
effectively preventing new methods of care from being introduced that are
cheaper and better.
á
Toxic effects of
surgeries, many of which are unnecessary to begin with, and most of which would
be unnecessary if natural methods were used first. All
surgery is quite toxic due to the use of anesthetic drugs, antibiotics, and
more. If surgeons would only
insist that patients take vitamins for a week before surgery, the infection and
complication rates would diminish significantly. This has been shown in a few studies. That they do not do this routinely is
so insane to anyone who understands even basic nutrition that it is appalling.
á
The toxicity or
invasiveness of some tests and procedures. This is a less severe problem, but affects thousands of people each
year nevertheless. Toxic or
dangerous tests or procedures include angiograms, mammography, other x-rays
such as CAT scans, the use of contrast media in some cases, liver biopsies,
spinal punctures, and even toxicity from repeated MRIs.
At
times, these tests are lifesaving, so we do not opposing testing. However, many would be totally
unnecessary if natural healing methods were used and lifestyles were improved. Also, the public does not realize that
doctors and especially hospitals routinely practice Òdefensive medicineÓ which
is hardly medicine at all. It is
the unnecessary use of tests and procedures to satisfy attorneys and little
else. This adds cost, inconvenience
and occasionally disability and death for no good reason.
á Environmental degradation due to the presence of allopathic drugs in every water supply in America and Europe. Whenever you take a drink of tap water, you ingest residues of birth control pills, heart drugs, blood pressure drugs, anti-depressants, and much more. Few people want to talk about this problem, but it is real. Once in a while it is discussed on the television news. Usually it is just suppressed.
MEDICAL DISEASE
This
is a common phenomenon, especially among those over about age 50 today. It is a perception that one has done
all one can do to overcome a health problem by visiting often a dozen or more
doctors, specialists, psychotherapists and perhaps other members of the medical
cartel, all to no avail or at least with very little help. The result is a kind of depression or
despair that sets in with thousands upon thousands of individuals around the
world.
I
call it medical disease because it is distinctly a product of the allopathic
medical care system that is extremely limited in its range of diagnostic and
treatment methods. In other words,
most people with medical disease can be helped with what are called holistic,
alternative or complementary healing methods that are basically shut out of the
medical system by the drug medicine cartel that runs the system. However, the public does not understand
any of this truth, so they become dejected and often even suicidal or least quite
despairing.
As
a natural practitioner, I must continually fight this disease in the clients
who show up at the door, as the despair and depression have the following
effects:
á
The clients have been taught to fear natural methods, even
though they are thousands of times safer than drugs and often more effective.
á
The clients donÕt respect my advice, as they have been
taught to be wary of alternative practitioners, and also they are so
despondent, in some cases.
á
The clients
donÕt follow instructions, because they may seem odd or just because they are so
depressed.
á
The clients
fail to stay in touch for the same reasons.
á
The clients
actually have trouble believing in healing. That is, they have lost hope in
many cases. This also slows
healing.
á All the above actually depresses the immune response and other systems of the body, slowing or even halting the healing process.
á Some clients have few financial resources, having spent them on cartel doctors, drugs, tests, procedures and surgeries that were not needed and were often harmful.
á The clientsÕ bodies are extremely toxic and depleted nutritionally, making healing much harder.
á The clients have a much lower level of health and vitality as a result of all of the above.
á The clients are often angry with health professionals of all stripes as a result of their years of dismal failure with the medical cartel. This anger is another poison that impairs their healing.
á The clients have more trouble with the simple discipline of a healthy lifestyle and diet. Yet these are essential. The clients have been taught, perhaps, that it is silly, or not needed, and secondly, they are so tired and toxic that any effort is difficult. They also do not believe, deep down, that it works when, in fact, it is often the only thing that works.
á
The families
of the clients are often skeptical or downright hostile to natural
healing. They are also brainwashed
and often depressed. This exerts
another powerful downward pull on the clients, further suppressing the immune
response and other body systems.
á
Spiritually,
the clients are either ignorant or very confused by the propaganda of the
medical profession. No longer do
doctors teach people to turn to god, for example, to pray, to sit and meditate
quietly, and so on. These used to
be important and even taught to doctors.
However, the legal drug cartel wants only drugs and surgery, not prayer
and god, which are free and cannot be patented.
THE ULTIMATE PROBLEM WITH MEDICAL DISEASE
The
outcome of all the points above is that many people, by age 50 or even younger,
have decided that they have done all they can and basically there is no hope
and they might as well just accept their illness and their drugs and live a
life of quiet despair. This is
what is meant by medical disease.
It
is a physical, emotional, mental and spiritual phenomenon, all wrapped up
together. In total, one might call
it a depression syndrome, for which of course the medical profession has a drug
such as Prozac. But no drug and no
surgery will cure the disease.
REVERSING MEDICAL DISEASE
Those
who offer nutritional balancing spend hours on the telephone and emails
attempting to reverse medical disease.
It is not an easy process.
The standard way that doctors and hospitals operate will usually not
work. Here are a few ideas that
may help:
á
Stay in close touch with clients. This means make friendly calls or send
an email at least once a month or even more. Most people like this very much. If they do not, they will usually tell you. Many clients tend to just drift away,
or become fearful for silly reasons, such as a news bulletin or something else
that is not even closely related to their program. Most people need this kind of contact to stay with a new
type of healing regimen.
á
Inform your clients. Education is the name of the game. You must become the teacher or counselor. Most clients need a lot of truth. I call them affectionately
ÒkindergartenersÓ because there is so much for them to learn that I consider
basic but it is not taught in school or by their doctors. That is the goal of this website, more
than anything else.
The
truth will set a lot of people free.
So share educational materials freely such as articles, audio clips,
video clips, newsletters, and more.
It is easier and less expensive today than ever before. Remember, you must overcome a ferocious
propaganda machine that controls the radio and TV news, the FDA, the mainstream
medical journals and popular magazines, most politicians and public health
officials, the Òconsumer protection agenciesÓ, and more.
á
Learn patience and love with people. This is often the way to break through
their depression and despondency, which are so common that they think it is
ÒnormalÓ. This is not easy for
some practitioners, especially the healthy ones who donÕt relate to people who
are quite ill, even if they donÕt look ill. This may be one reason why the best natural healing
practitioners are those who have been quite ill and depressed. They simply relate better or understand
medical disease better than the others.
á
Realize what you are up against and do your best to relax
with it. This may sound strange, but it means
that a natural healing practitioner must expect more resistance, perhaps more
legal and financial scrutiny, and other inconveniences that mainstream medical
people do not suffer.
So
settle in for the long haul and try to resist becoming despondent or angry
yourself. Knowledge of the truth,
or awareness, and being a leader, is never easy and can be lonely and scary, at
times. If it is not, you are
probably not actually on the front lines doing your job.
á
Take excellent care of yourself, and move ahead using the
nutritional balancing program yourself as much as you possibly can. This is the remedy for the problem
above.
I
sometimes comfort myself by imagining what leaders and revolutionaries like
Jesus or Moses endured. In many
ways, natural healing is a movement that can change the world, but it is in its
infancy, resistance is still fierce and most of the people are still in
bondage, as in Egypt (the word means bondage in Hebrew).
á
Love yourself above all else. This is difficult one for some
practitioners and clients, but I think it is absolutely necessary, especially
at this time. It is also excellent
to teach to your clients. It is
necessary for all to do this, but especially practitioners in order to stay the
course and to deter efforts by friends, family members and other perhaps
well-meaning souls who want to derail your efforts, perhaps even Òfor your own
goodÓ.
LABELING DISEASE
This is the
product of the diagnose-and-treat method of health care in which a critical
step in handling illness is to label or give a name to your problem. Medical texts are loaded with thousands
of diagnoses, diseases and syndromes, most with complex Latin names.
This is fine
as far as it goes. In fact, giving
groups of symptoms a name and piecing together the cause is a vital step, at
times, to identify and correct the cause of illnesses.
However,
many of the newer medical labels, and even many of the older ones such as arthritis
and even cancer, set up a psychological dynamic that is highly
destructive. It is this
psychological and spiritual dynamic that I am calling labeling disease.
Millions of
people today literally give up their old identities and gain a new identity
based on some disease label. As
the label gains strength, the true identity of the person can become submerged,
and this can seriously impair healing.
ROLE OF THE INTERNET IN LABELING DISEASE
The internet
is the most fabulous information resource ever devised by mankind. I would never want to go backwards and
live without it. It is the common
manÕs library, lawyer, accountant, doctor, and so much more.
However,
with the advent of the internet, labeling disease has become far worse. Before the internet, one had to pour
through medical books at a library to learn about oneÕs label or disease. Today, a few mouse clicks and one finds
mounds of facts and figures to strengthen the new false identity created by the
disease label. Besides this, one can
visit hundreds of website, join chat groups, make ÒfriendsÓ who have the same
label, and much more that can also strengthen your new identity based on a
medical diagnosis.
Older
physicians and health practitioners may not realize the power of the internet
in this regard. While it can be
used for good, and I hope I am doing this, it can also deepen the false
identity that I call labeling disease.
For more on this topic, please read Internet
Research And Its Problems on this site.
THOSE MOST AFFECTED BY LABELING DISEASE
The worst
labels I have encountered include autism, multiple chemical sensitivity,
chronic fatigue syndrome, yeast or candida albicans infection, depression,
anxiety and perhaps a few others.
When I say the worst, I mean those labels that seem to cause people to
become most stuck with their label, and thus unable to move out of the labeled
identify or disease.
ULTIMATE EFFECTS OF LABELING DISEASE
The main
effect is to slow or stop healing.
This happens because:
á
Stuck in a rut and afraid to come out. Clients can become locked into the new
identity. In other words, one can
actually become comfortable with the new identity. It can become an excuse, for example, as to why one canÕt
work much, cannot be social, cannot do things, and so on. Giving it up actually becomes stressful
and unpleasant for some people.
This causes fear of changing the identity.
á
Fear of natural healing. The support groups and
websites often induce fear of diets, supplements, or other procedures that are
outside of the prescribed methods for this label.
á
Wrecking a
specific program. The support groups and blogs can also
cause the client to abandon the program or add other foods, supplements, or
procedures that wreck it, even when he or she is specifically warned against
this practice.
á
Skepticism. The client often will not follow lifestyle
directions that are not ÒprescribedÓ for his label.
á
Secret despair.
Often, the client secretly does not believe a cure is possible, since
that is the thrust of many of the websites and blogs, I have found. This can block healing in many subtle
ways.
á
Wasting of time and money. The client often
wastes money on new tests, drugs, vitamins, procedures and therapies
recommended on the label websites.
á
Reinforcing negative feelings and ideas. The
client becomes depressed reading the horror stories on the website and from the
support groups. Often they just
reinforce oneÕs anger, fear, and other negative feelings that need to be healed,
not reinforced.
á
Spiritually, the
client falls into a trap. Instead of knowing and feeling that
oneÕs true identity is the holy and beloved child of god, the client believes
he is just ÒautisticÓ, a Òyeast problemÓ, a Òchronic fatigue caseÓ, or
something else like this. All
these are physical identities, not spiritual ones, and they are all false at
the deepest level. We are each the
amazing and incredible child of god and nothing else. All is possible to those who ask. Any other identity is deadly, at one level, and definitely
can cripple the healing process.
Spiritually, we must let go of all physical identities, even identities
such as someoneÕs child, wife, husband or parent.
á
Intellectual
confusion. Clients who are stuck with a label can
become extremely confused, so much so that working with them becomes difficult
or impossible. They are always
checking the websites, trying the newest cure, and getting bored with a simple
program such as nutritional balancing.
CORRECTING LABELING DISEASE
How hair
analysis helps. Hair analysis
helps greatly. We intentionally
shift the personÕs focus from his disease to items such as toxic metal
poisoning, fast or slow oxidation, a low sodium/potassium ratio, a calcium
shell, or a low phosphorus level.
This
may sound corny or even false, but it is a step in the right direction. First, these are not diseases. Second, they are not all over the
internet. Third, they are
temporary states of body chemistry that we explain are often easy to change and
fix. Fourth, they are really far
more true on a physical plane level, at least, than fancy Latin words like
arthritis, or English words like HashimotoÕs disease that have a scary ring
about them when, in fact, this condition is relatively simple to correct in our
experience with nutritional balancing science.
THE ULTIMATE END OF LABELING DISEASE
Some
labeling is common and hard to avoid.
Ideally, realize that labels are only helpful to a degree, in almost all
cases. Your true identity is not found in any book or on any website. Watch our for fear that results from
labeling and reject it consciously.
Even
positive-sounding labels can be dangerous, in fact. Calling someone beautiful or brilliant can also be very
false and misleading. I find it
helpful to try to transcend all physical-plane labels, in my opinion, so as to
be able to focus on moving ahead to develop oneÕs potential, which is quite
unknown to all of us.
FRAGMENTATION DISEASE
This
is the situation in which patients who see three or four doctors for various
problems are given drugs by each one of them, but no one coordinates the care
and checks the drugs carefully for hidden side effects or interactions. The problem is extremely widespread,
especially in the elderly on Medicare.
This problem of allopathic care is familiar to most doctors, yet it
continues unabated.
Causes. These include:
á
The system of specialization that rules the medical system
at this time. Most doctors prefer
to be specialists and the insurance and hospital systems support the idea.
á
Sloppiness and carelessness on the part of many medical
specialists who fail to take the time to read through all a patientÕs
conditions and particularly all of a patientÕs medications.
á
Ignorance on
the part of most doctors of drug side effects, especially the adverse effects
of combinations of drugs.
á
Insurance,
especially government-supported insurance such as Medicare, that is rigged or
ÒlegislatedÓ to pay for all the drugs.
If the patients had to pay out of their pockets, the problem would
likely vanish overnight.
á
Lack of a
coherent view of life and health in allopathic medical care. Doctors are not taught about health and
wholeness. They are taught mainly
about diseases and drugs for them.
So this is how they approach their patients, too often. Patients are viewed as a Òstomach
ulcerÓ or a Òhigh blood pressure caseÓ.
If one has four or five conditions, as many older people do, the doctors
pile on the drugs instead of looking for a common thread such as a poor diet or
lifestyle that would address many of them.
Results of fragmentation disease. These include:
á
Too many drugs, with complex side effects of not only
individual drugs but their combinations.
á
Extreme cost of health care.
á
Toxic side
effects of all the drugs.
á
Plainly stupid
medical care that ignores the patient and just treats diseases.
á
Ultimately, a
poorer quality of life and a shorter lifespan for millions of people in Western
nations, in particular.
The cure for fragmentation disease. There are several steps anyone can
take:
á
Shift your thinking and hopefully your approach to health to
a unified system of healing such as nutritional balancing science, which is
described on this website. I find
most symptoms are due to a few conditions such as a sluggish oxidation rate,
copper toxicity, inflammation, toxic metals, nutrient deficiencies, yeast in
the intestines from eating sugars and too many carbohydrates, mainly, and
perhaps a few other imbalances that are more complex such as a four lows
pattern.
á If you prefer an allopathic approach, find a doctor who is not quick with the prescribing pad, and who always reviews all of your health conditions and drugs on every visit. Be sure to do this with nurse practitioners, surgeons, natural doctors, and even dentists and other disease professionals, since today the laws extend prescribing privileges to many types of practitioners.
