It's hard to say, unless you've been in and out of the system for years, maybe decades, and have been serially disappointed by the results to the point that you stay away to save your own life. At one job I had years ago, I found myself driving northbound on Interstate in Los Angeles toward the San Fernando Valley in California. A critic of the healthcare system was pointing out how healthcare insurance for single folks was almost unnecessary, that all you really needed as a single man was catastrophic insurance. Otherwise, folks with insurance have a tendency to go to their doctor for non-emergency issues, things that might resolve themselves from an improved diet, exercise, maybe some vitamins, a walk around a peaceful park, or up a trail whose trees form a welcomed canopy from the August sun. Health insurance is mainly for young couples who want to start a family. Even there I have my doubts. Nutritional supplements can go a long way to fortifying mother and child that most mothers and fathers don't know about. For example, Dr. Barry Sears recommends expecting mothers consume fish oils so that their child's brain gets adequately nourished during pregnancy. John J. Cannel, M.D. of the Vitamin D Council persuades convincingly that children can take up to 1,000IU of vitamin D as a maintenance dose to fortify all of their organs--brain, heart, kidney, liver-- including their bones. Talk about preparing your child for childhood hazards. Health insurance is not the first benefit that younger employees think about until stress takes its toll and they need it. Health insurance benefits will not confer health benefits. Don't look to surgery to cure what ails you. Even if it is cancer; that can be undone, stopped, and reversed with nutritional compounds, like beta-glucans, glutathione, vitamin D, C, and others. But to return to the question, "Why does modern medicine have a big problem with natural health? Market share, in other words, money.
I will never forget the first time that I took 2 teaspoons of olive oil and what that did for the migraines I was suffering from. Two teaspoons, and voila. Headaches, gone! That was a miracle, I thought. But Jon Rappoport pins it down with example after example.
Well, there is the money, of
course.
When millions of people forego
expensive and toxic medical drugs; when they rarely see conventional doctors;
when they don’t receive vaccinations and don’t have their children vaccinated;
when they opt for natural remedies; when, worst of all, THEY STAY HEALTHY, this
is a hammer blow to drug-based medicine.
These “natural health” people are
also going against The Plan, which is a cradle-to-grave system, whereby humans
are diagnosed with 30 or 40 diseases and disorders during their
lifetime—requiring large amounts of toxic and debilitating drugs—and then they
die. Note: The effects of the drugs are labeled “diseases,” which in turn are
treated with more harmful drugs, resulting in new diagnoses of “diseases,” and
so on. It’s a self-feeding, self-replicating parade of destruction.
You can see the final stages in
nursing homes, where the elderly are warehoused. On their night tables are a
dozen or so drugs. The tragic end-game.
This pathetic, vicious,
pseudoscientific medical assault is praised to the skies, as “the best” in
human care. On television, hired hands parade through show after show,
insisting that modern medicine is the most brilliant program ever devised for
the human race.
At the same time, untold millions
of people who opt for natural health expose, by their choices, this titanic
lie.
Here is how medical propaganda
works, in the big picture. When delivered by competent caring personnel, acute
crisis emergency care can produce remarkable results. People who have been
damaged in accidents, who develop sudden life-threatening situations
(unconnected to medical drugs) can be put back together. However…
Propagandists then parlay this
specific success by pretending it applies over the whole field of medical
practice, in every aspect. This assertion is absurd, false, and highly
dangerous.
The case of a person who is lying
in the road after a car crash, and a person who is suffering from chronic
immune-system weakness, are as far apart from each other as an ant in Idaho and
a rocket on the moon.
The propagandists’ job is to make
these two people “the same.” They both need medical care, and medical care is
wonderful. The big lie.
More and more people are waking up
to this deception, and they are pursuing non-medical means to arrive at a
better state of health and maintain it.
The scale is tipping in the
direction of natural health–herbs, nutritional supplements, proper food,
exercise, clean water, “alternative” practitioners.
Medical propaganda is on a long
decline of failure.
That problem is very worrying to the
medical cartel.
When you’ve had populations under
your control for a long time, with the simplest kind of public relations; when you’ve been
very sure your tactics were working; when you’ve blasted the same messages with
the same rewarding results; you suffer from overconfidence.
When your tactics don’t work
anymore, you don’t know what to do.
Your only option is trying to
MANDATE medical treatment. You put populations in a box. You demand they obey.
Now you’re heading toward a
showdown. At what point will your prisoners decide they’ve had enough?
Here is a statement to shake up the
princes of modern medicine:
“The combined death rate from scarlet
fever, diphtheria, whooping cough and measles among children up to fifteen
shows that nearly 90 percent of the total decline in mortality between 1860 and
1965 had occurred before the introduction of antibiotics and widespread
immunization. In part, this recession may be attributed to improved housing and
to a decrease in the virulence of micro-organisms, but by far the most
important factor was a higher host-resistance due to better nutrition.” Ivan Illich, Medical Nemesis: The Expropriation of Health, Bantam Books, 1977.
For decades, authors have been
punching holes in medical myths. Their efforts have not gone in vain. Educated
readers have been taking their findings to heart.
The truth has been trickling up,
down, and sideways in the culture. Remember, we are talking about people’s view
of, and concern for, their own bodies. There is nothing abstract about this.
The desire for knowledge is intimate. The empty word from on high, spouted by
experts, can easily take a back seat. When the issue is pain and suffering vs.
well-being, people will shrug off what they’re supposed to think and they will
dig for answers.
Here are several statements from a
widely beloved American physician, Robert Mendelsohn. During his life, his
views served to awaken readers all over the world:
“Modern Medicine would rather you
die using its remedies than live by using what physicians call quackery.”
“Almost half of the 100,000 or so
surgeons we actually do have right now are superfluous. Those 50,000 or so
extra unsheathed scalpels do a lot of damage.”
“The greatest threat of childhood
diseases lies in the dangerous and ineffectual efforts made to prevent them
through mass immunization…..There is no convincing scientific evidence that
mass inoculations can be credited with eliminating any childhood disease.”
“When I was Senior Pediatric
Consultant to the Department of Mental Health in Illinois, I cut out a certain
kind of operation that was being performed on mongoloid children with heart
defects. The stated purpose of the operation was to improve oxygen supply to
the brain. The real purpose, of course, was to improve the state’s residency
programs in cardiovascular surgery [by training new surgeons], because nothing
beneficial happened to the brains of mongoloid children—and the surgeons knew
that. The whole idea was absurd. And deadly, since the operation had a fairly
high mortality rate. Naturally, the university people were very upset when I
cut out the operation. They couldn’t figure out a better use for the mongoloid
children, and, besides, it was important to train people. In prepaid group
practices where surgeons are paid a steady salary not tied to how many
operations they perform, hysterectomies and tonsillectomies occur only about
one-third as often as in fee-for-service situations.”
“I can remember when if a
hospital’s incidence of Caesarean deliveries went above four or five percent,
there was a full scale investigation. The present level is around twenty-five
percent. There are no investigations at all. And in some hospitals the rate is
pushing fifty percent.”
“Today your child has about as much
chance of contracting diphtheria as he does of being bitten by a cobra.” [In
the DPT vaccine, the “D” stands for diphtheria.]
Mendelsohn, Ivan Illich, and many
other rebel authors have cut across the full range of medical propaganda.
They’ve raised red flags on every front. You can’t overestimate the effect
they’ve had.
In private meetings, medical cartel
front men complain, “The people aren’t listening to us!” They’re right. That’s
what happens when gross lies and deceptions are spread out across the planet.
You can diagnose and damage some of
the people some of the time, but you can’t damage all the people all the time.
Also because of money and influence, it's the reason why big pharma owned the airwaves.
