In many cases natural methods work better than most drugs prescribed by doctors.
This is why the force of law has been and is being used to drive the natural, often
superior, medicines from the marketplace, to remove the word "cure" from the
medical vocabulary and to undermine the very concept of a free marketplace in the
medical business.
Now it is clear why the "cure" word is so vigorously suppressed by law. The FDA
has extensive Orwellian regulations that prohibit the use of the "cure" word to
describe any competing medicine or natural substance. It is precisely because many
natural substances do actually both cure and prevent disease that this word has
become so frightening to the drug companies and mainstream medical community.
The Commercial Value of Symptoms
After the drug development policy was redesigned to focus on relieving symptoms
rather than curing disease, it became necessary to reinvent the way drugs were
marketed. This was done in 1949 in the midst of a major epidemic of insulin-
resistant diabetes.
So in 1949, the US medical community reclassified the symptoms of diabetes along
with many other disease symptoms into diseases in their own right. With this
reclassification as the new basis for diagnosis, competing medical specialty groups
quickly seized upon related groups of symptoms as their own proprietary symptoms
set.
Thus the heart specialist, endocrinologist, allergist, kidney specialist and many
others started to treat the symptoms for which they felt responsible. As the
underlying cause of the disease was widely ignored, all focus on actually curing
anything was completely lost. Instead of treating the cause of all these problems,
they were broken down and treated separately by themselves.
Heart failure, for example, which had previously been understood often to be but a
symptom of diabetes, now became a disease not directly connected to diabetes. It
became fashionable to think that diabetes "increased cardiovascular risk". The
causal role of a failed blood-sugar control system in heart failure became obscured.
Consistent with the new medical paradigm, none of the treatments offered by the
heart specialist actually cures, or is even intended to cure, their proprietary disease.
For example, the three-year survival rate for bypass surgery is almost exactly the
same as when no surgery is undertaken.
