Why do some get sick, and why do others escape it?
The truth is, medical and health sciences are in the “Dark Ages”. We understand far less than what is claimed in all of the blogs, posts, advertisements and government pronouncements.
For example, the CDC recommends folic acid over the folate found in nature, giving the excuse that the real thing “hasn’t been studied enough”. Yet we do know that in many people folic acid can block folate from being absorbed from food, leading to birth defects and even autism. Folic acid does, however, cost much less and does have a longer shelf life than the real thing, and satisfies the government mandated fortifications. So, we’re stuck with supporting the chemical and processed foods industries.
We believe that everyone must be responsible for their own health.
Yes, diet, exercise and avoidance of environmental pollutants are very important. Avoid ultra-processed foods, be suspicious of all food additives, manage your weight, exercise, eat a diet that is appropriate for YOUR body (our needs are NOT the same!), discover what foods you should avoid.
Psychological factors are also important. Understand the stress you feel. Stress is NOT caused by hard work or poor relationships, but rather by how you react to them. If you feel stressed, seek out a good therapist and explore why. Stress is certainly near the top of causes of disease, and may be number 1!
Have PURPOSE to your life. We all have heard how many die not long after retirement. Your job or profession is not your purpose, but just your means to satisfy this inner need.
Importantly,
- Monitor your health with appropriate lab tests on a regular basis.
- Pay attention to symptoms. Mood symptoms often have physical causes. Treating sadness with antidepressants will never rebalance a thyroid issue, or anxiety caused by a medication!
- Understand what YOUR BODY needs nutritionally, and use supplements to make up for lifestyle and genetic factors that influence how your body absorbs and uses its nutrients.
- Explore natural treatments including herbs, enzymes, amino acids and vitamins to correct imbalances BEFORE they turn into diseases. Western medicine does well at treating illness (although I believe the pharmaceutical approach should only be a last resort!)
- Seek out the correct trained professional for help. Physicians are trained to be doctors of disease, not doctors of health. Naturopaths, Doctors of Chinese Medicine, Acupuncturists, Chiropractors, Curanderos and Curanderas all contribute to health and well being; their contributions are increasingly being acknowledged by those with licenses proclaiming “Physician and Surgeon”.
- Psychotherapists and psychologists are trained to help you understand your WHY and help you discover PURPOSE.
A true story: In Germany, pharmacists can prescribe medicines (which makes sense, since they have FAR more education in drugs that physicians). Several years ago I asked a German Pharmacist if he felt threatened by the push, common in America, to have only those holding an M.D. or D.O. degree prescribe. He chuckled, “My profession has studied these things for thousands of years. Those upstarts have only been around about 100 years. (Physicians were first licensed in the U.S. in 1910!)
