Does anyone agree with me about natural cures?

Question

Do you agree that there are cures out there that have been banned in America because doctors and pharmacies and drug companies cannot make a profit from them, and therefore dismiss their effectiveness?

Yes, I did read Kevin's book, and he is not looking to make money selling remedies. He just recommends them, for someone else to make some money. He makes money on his website, but it's minimal compared to the medical association, who depend on us to stay sick so they can be rich.

Answer 1

Yes, I believe their are many cures out there and that yes they are suppressed or outlawed because they are not part of the AMA philosophy and not profitable.

Personally, I live in the USA. My husband (at 32) was diagnosed with poly-cystic kidney disease, a degenerative genetic disease. There's nothing but wait, dialysis, and death available in Western Medicine. We found results with Acupuncture and Chinese Medicine. As a result of our experience, we go to a clinic of Chinese Medicine for everything - kids included 2 & 4. I did alot of research on the medical/pharmaceutical systems plus both my parents are in medicine - and I can say that I think most every pill is poison and most procedures do more bodily/systemic harm than good.

As far as the clinic is concerned, I am always amazed at the things they treat and cure - regular colds and flu, cancer, hepatitis, anything degenerative MS-lupus-fibromyalgia back/spine injuries, IBS, diabetes, even AD/HD in children - just about anything but emergency trama. But, now that I think about it, I saw more than one person with a back injury come from the ER to the clinic for pain management.

We don't carry major insurance anymore - and probably never will again. By going to the clinic we are engaged in preventative healthcare which actually comes out cheaper than insurance per year plus we have the benefit of knowing our health is great all the time. I go to the health dept to get the vaccines - so unless one of us needs surgery, we probably won't be seeing another doctor ever.

One last thing: Since the MDs couldn't help us, I went on a rampage learning about herbs so I could at least do something for my husband. After months and he was getting worse, I chose Chinese Medicine because of the herbology. Even though Chinese Medicine is cloaked in metaphor - they have an understanding of the body's biochemistry as a complete system that is not existent in Western Medicine. This is why most of Western Medicine hurts instead of cures.

Answer 2

I have been in the VA system for a long time due to disabilities. I have been using natural cures for the last 5 years and have not had any hospitalizations since that time. I feel better and have a great outlook on life. I think western medicine feels threatened by the eastern practices. Home cures have been around for thousands of years, so it must do something right. Home cures go with the body and are not a foreign substance fighting inside of our bodies. I agree that the companies fight the home cure methods due to all profits they would lose. More medicines cause sickness than what a lot of people start with.

Answer 3

I hope you don't get cancer any time soon with your head full of such paranoid mush!

If there were "natural cures" for ANYTHING that actually worked, they would be so well known through word-of-mouth that any kind of ban would be completely ineffectual. There are many, many so-called "natural" products constantly advertised by private individuals with no scruples and a desire to profit from other people's sickness. THOSE are the people you should be afraid off!

If you really think that there is a financially-driven conspiracy between literally millions of people who are doctors, pharmaceutical industry workers, distributors and ancillary workers, why don't you just stop using their products?

But like I said, I hope you don't get cancer! (You have about a one-in-three chance, unfortunately, but maybe you'll be lucky...)

Answer 4

That is quite possible.What i do know is that docs wont prescribe alternative meds 1)because they don`t get a kickback from it 2)they are ignorant about food supplementation 3)medical aid would not pay for it 4)most supplements are not to be trusted.
Most illnesses can be treated and prevented by supplementation. Your immune system was built to produce antibodies for most illnesses within 20 minutes.The condition is that the immune system must have all vitamins,minerals and amino acids at its disposal.If your immune system is running at 100% constantly you cannot get ill.I would not call it a conspiracy to keep us in the dark but as with the church in the middle ages we are kept ignorant.Then most people are ignorant as to what the color pigmentation in fruit and veggies does in our body and so it is with almost every other food product.People think they have to eat to stay alive.They fear starvation but do not realize the greater danger of wrong diet.

Answer 5

You Said It !
I agree with you 100% !
They are intrested in just giving us medicines which make us sicker than what we were before we took them and create all sorts of complications. Like who is responsible if the doctor prescribed ASPIRINS to thin your blood and you start to have stomach ulcers its like trading one sickness for another, It cannot be called curing ! Could it be .?
Natural Cures are the best no side effects no complications
Take care and God Bless

Answer 6

you are very much right. they have to live and protect vested interests. FDA is a genuine body. # pardon a small diversion! donot so called alt med people come forth with fancy cures for all illnesses with no known meds. like psycho,viral diseases etc. what meds are out there? drug companies go out and grab them and extract the chemical and develop a drug. 1970 USA Edgbert study found only 22% people who were cured were from the allopath meds and doctors. 28 thru placebos[homoeo ,magic ], 30% thru simple belief. the rest unknown factor, called spritual. so what is nature? i am allo but follw nature. no meds unless am sure. i can cure dry cough with tracheal manipulation. any one can try. i dont give pain killers unless emergency. the body will respond to the pain in its own corrective curative way. in the forests there are cures and there are deadly poisons.# half my cases are relieved by my patient listening to their long list of real and feared problems. # But u see people have to live .

Answer 7

There is no evidence supporting your claim.

Any cure, whatever the source, would be a source of great profit for whoever can prove their effectiveness in clinical trials. There is a great incentive to sell ineffective treatments by those who cannot prove their effectiveness (kevin trudeau, for instance). You are right that there is a money issue here. That you trust the snake-oil salesmen is sad, though.

Answer 8

Of course. And as we all know, every medicine, manufactured or not, comes from herbs or otherwise which has been grown. Utilizing supplements and natural herbs, you will do the best for your body as any specialist, so long as you take the time in researching what you need, and listening to your body.

Answer 9

Sure. Besides - where do you think most drugs come from? Derivatives of foods, plants, etc that are then synthetically manufactured and sold for profit. Do you think it would be beneficial to drug companies to have people of the world healthy?

Answer 10

you just finished the book Natural Cures "They" Dont Want you to know about, by kevin treduea, Havent you?
