The Merry-go-round Of Conventional Medicine!

I'm not here to scare you but to try and get you to think before you act on that medical treatment.

Will the medication really help? Are there safer alternatives?

Prescription and OTC (over-the-counter) drugs that man has created and decided has all the answers to human ailments are sadly creating a world of more illness and disease all by themselves! Getting worse daily!

The "The merry-go-round of medicine starts with on Medication"!

Let's start with the most often prescribed treatment of today for high blood pressure aka hypertension!

You go in for a check up and are told you have high blood pressure. Here begins the merry-go-round.

Maybe you do and maybe you don't really have high blood pressure since the normals have been lowered so much in the last few years that what use to be normal is now considered high?

The one blood pressure prescription usually starts the merry-go-round in your prescription life!

Most common BP treatment used; One pill to cause the blood vessels to open up, thereby speeding up the heart, which is dangerous in itself. A second medication is then prescribed to slow the heart down. The slowing down of the blood flow causes the body to retain fluid creating swelling throughout the body, most often the lower limbs (legs, feet and ankles). That bring on a third prescription to remove the fluid in the body, called a water pill or diuretic. Diuretics remove minerals and vitamins the body needs to function creating problems with vital organs as well as decimating the immune system making you a magnet for any virus or bacteria around you...

That loss of nutrients in turn causes dizziness, weakness, and even headaches in a large number taking it. Loss of those nutrients most often raises cholesterol levels and then the doctor feels he/she must give a prescription for lowering cholesterol.
Cholesterol
lowering drugs are famous for further decimating the nutrient system creating bone and joint pain along with the other symptoms that are then diagnosed most often as arthritis and more prescriptions are written.
Before I forget; blood pressure lowering drugs create impotence in men and loss of libido in women.

There exists your merry-go-round of medications that lead to more serious problems the longer you stay on the merry-go-round.

You now have four medications for one health issue and those that lead to more serious problems further along, such as heart attack and/or stroke, which lowering blood pressure and or cholesterol is suppose to prevent?

Second BP treatment in conventional medicine: Another class of hypertension drugs called beta blockers, which most often cause depression, hallucinations, insomnia, liver and kidney damage. This too creates circulatory problems that will result in swelling, loss of nutrients, etc. activating more prescriptions listed above, so continues the merry-go-round.

If you smoke, have any kind of respiratory problems, such as asthma, allergies then the beta blocker is even more dangerous making for not a lot of wellness in my book.

Sadly all those drugs and your blood pressure could still remain high, as it does in fifty percent of those taking all those drugs.

So what have they accomplished? Nothing except setting yourself up for more serious health problems and early death!

This is just the tip of the iceberg with prescription and OTC drug treatments that the body is not designed to accept as natural, so it is forced to react in ways that can and do kill people minute by minute...

That same scenario is played out hourly with a multitude of other perceived health problems through out most of
the world and don't even ask me about the cancer treatments out there in traditional medicine. It would almost require a book to write about the horrific side effects and deaths occurring from chemotherapy and radiation. Those treatment success figures are; deaths from the chemotherapy and radiation treatment 60% and living through the treatments 40%. I don't find that very comforting!

Doesn't it make more sense to try natural herbal/mineral treatments that the body recognizes as normal and natural and can work within the body to reverse the problems in about 80% of those who choose alternative treatment... I like 80% versus 40% better health odds myself!

Think about it before accepting manmade drugs for your health problem! I daily watch people successfully using herbs and minerals for treating and getting healthy all without the side effects of chemical medicine… I only see alternative medicine fail when people shop around and take an imbalance of herbs and minerals… Healing will only happen if you don't shop and try more than necessary! “Too much of a good thing is just as bad as a bad thing!”
