Hello
Do you agree with this statement?
"If I had health problems or developed them, I'd go to my doctor to make sure I don't have anything serious, and to get treatment options so I can feel better and avoid future complications."
So far, so good, right? How about this statement?
"If my doctor diagnosed me with a "chronic" disease and recommended a long-term medication, I wouldn't be happy about it but would probably take the meds to avoid more problems in the future."
("Chronic" means it doesn't go away or keeps coming back, such as blood pressure, cholesterol, depression, diabetes, digestive problems, anxiety, female hormone problems, etc.)
Did you accept this, or did you have doubts?
Did you feel that long-term drugs were inevitable, or were you upset that your health had fallen to this?
Did you wish for some other solution than drugs but have no idea what to do?
Did you realize you just received a "life sentence"?
When you are prescribed a long-term medication, you are being told that you'll have this disease long-term, maybe for the rest of your life.
These medications do NOT "cure" your condition, they (attempt to) manage the symptoms. Meanwhile, the condition will often worsen, and almost always new conditions will occur.
Did you wish for some other solution than drugs but have no idea what to do?
Your prescriptions may be protecting you from some serious consequences of your condition but may not be effective with the concerns and symptoms that affect your day-to-day life. Also, your health isn't improved by these drugs, and your now-compromised body is very likely to develop more problems.
Your Prescription May Be Causing New Health Problems
Many medications affect your nutrition:
- The medication can attach itself to a nutrient and pass it out of the body
- The medication can alter the pH in the gut so that the nutrient can't be adequately absorbed
- Some medications need specific nutrients for them to be able to work and may cause deficiencies.
See below for more information: "Blood Pressure Medications and Nutrient Deficiencies."
The Failure of Conventional Medicine
The philosophy of using pharmaceuticals for any and every health problem has resulted in a society where 60% of all adults have unresolved, long-term health conditions (per the CDC).
What I'm complaining about here is simple: This philosophy and the practice of a drug for every ill doesn't work.
You CAN Be Happy and Healthy
What's needed is a different approach to health care that addresses improving health instead of suppressing symptoms.
It was my own frightening health experience that inspired my clinic. I understand, personally, how it feels to have a health problem with no solution.
For 30 years and 10,000 patients, I have pioneered an approach to health care that has successfully changed the lives of myself and my patients.
