Modern Western Medicine vs Alternative Medicine

Now here's something to think about…

  • Modern medicine refuses to consider how stress lowers immunity.
  • Modern medicine refuses to consider the role of processed foods in disease.
  • Today 90% of the money spent on food is on processed food.
  • Modern medicine refuses to consider how the thousands of toxins in our world cause illness.
  • 50,000 people die from cancer each year because they’re told to stay out of the sun.
  • Bad handwriting causes 7,000 patient deaths every year.
  • Avoidable medication mistakes hurt 1,500,000 patients each year.
  • 106,000 people die from adverse drug reactions every year.
  • The death rate rose 90% in five years for people between age 45-64 who took their medications correctly.
  • Most adverse reactions are mistaken for new diseases, which leads to more medications and medical procedures.
  • 7,500,000 unnecessary surgical and medical procedures are performed each year.
  • More than 50% of the population of the USA has received unnecessary medical treatment.
  • 42% have been directly affected by a medical mistake.
  • In 2001 Pfizer was the most profitable company of the Fortune 500 companies.
  • Modern medicine is a profit oriented disease industry that only makes money if millions of people get and stay sick.
  • The American medical system is the number one killer in the USA.
  • The amount of money being spent every year on medical care should give us the best care in the history of the planet.
