Most Astonishing Health Disaster of the 20th Century

Posted by Maria Kang on June 2, 2008

Thanks Dr. Mercola for creating this youtube video and expressing EXACTLY how I feel about the whole health care industry.

The other day, I was at the gym talking to an elder gentlemen around 70 years old. He looks like he’s in great shape – I see him there all the time – and we started a conversation while on the stairmasters. He told me how annoyed he was with his doctor…because he was forced to take a ct-scan because his doctor wanted to ‘make sure’ everything was okay. He told his doctor that he was feeling great because he was working out, eating right and not feeling any pain whatsoever. BUT, his doctor insisted…so Sam (the elder guy at the gym) took the test, and as Sam suspected…he was perfect.

I am certain that other times doctor’s find something…but Sam said something very intriguing. He said, “the don’t focus on the things that are RIGHT with me…they are always looking for something WRONG with me.”

Well…in my mind, if a person were in ‘good health’ what good use would the doctor be in that patient’s life, right?

Just like the all ugly world of medicine….GOSH I HATE MEDICINE. I hate it when people prescribe stuff because it’s not like it’s going to fix anything?? It creates side effects, that create side effects…that gets diagnosed for something else…etc.

My whole life, my mother had been on medicine. Besides having a poor diet and lack of exercise, I’m sure overconsumption of prescription drugs has contributed to her kidney failure. BESIDES, it’s not like my mother ever was given REAL EXERCISE as prescription to her problems…

Anyways – I’m ranting because I watched this interesting video made by Dr. Mercola and sent to me by my girlfriend Janelle Haney.

Check it out – you’ll be intrigued.
