Hello Doc Dinesh,
Seems we have gotten off to a rough start but I do want to welcome you to the forum.
Now that I see that you are from India it does clarify some things perhaps, in my mind, about you.
Perhaps you are not aware of the battle that rages in the USA between the alternative practitioners and the allopathic doctors. We stand on the precipice of loosing much freedom here to think and act for ourselves, to protect ourselves nutritionally, to heal herbally, to use homeopathy.
Medical doctors in our nation are woefully undereducated in nutrition. They use drugs and surgery and that is mostly it. Those who are integrated and educated in alternative cares are very few and far between and not available to the general public who rely on insurance our even out of pocket payment.
I am aware of some of the splendid work being done in India and perhaps in time they will role model for the world the true capacity for integrated medicine.
By profession I am a nurse. I have known many doctors in the USA, worked by their side and have watched them practice and watched them destroy lives. I have also watched them dedicatedly work to help people past some very critical and frightening health issues.
My conclusion after 27 years in this work is that they do not understand the needs and nature of true healing. They view the body as a machine and try to repair it as such. In this approach, they loose many. There is now a real battle going on in our nation due to the damage that drug therapy has caused. New levels of crippling and deadly disease are present and spreading through communities, created within hospitals and now transferring through the general public. We have Candida, MRSA, C-diff, psuedomonias and other mysterious infections, Autism and a multitude of behavioral disorders, Asthma, increasing allergy diseases, and drugs being forced down the throats of very small children.
Whats their latest? The use of statin drugs on 2 year olds? OMG!
Not only are the therapeutics that are learned and practiced here deadly, much has been done to stifle the truth, to withhold information, to maintain ignorance and to financially ruin or imprison those who would speak and practice the truth. Over the last 50 years leading physicians and researchers and practitioners of alternative medicines who have endeavored to speak out, to truly heal, have been run out of the country and have been fully ruined. These practices have been promoted and condoned by the AMA, with their first initiative against Homeopaths, then Chiropractors, then Naturopaths. Still Naturopaths can only practice legally in about 12 states. Homeopaths are only fully legal in a few states, where individual states have mandated dictates and guidelines of practice and education for them.
Many times over the years I have had to turn to "illegal" practitioners to protect myself and my children from the ravages of drugs that pediatricians would have inflicted upon them if I allowed it. Fortunately there are homeopaths who venture and risk all to help people. Now my children are perfect pictures of health. I cringe to think of what would have happened to them if I left them to the hands of the allopaths. I know first hand, having been a pediatric nurse for 15 years, the devastation they bring to children with their steroid injections and inhalers, their antibiotics, their deathly vaccinations, their crappy baby forumulas. They know how to CURE nothing.
Now the pharmaceutical industries are endeavoring to take away individual rights and liberties for individuals to make private decisions on the vitamins and minerals they choose to use. Few physicians are skilled and trained in this and individuals have had to educate themselves to protect and heal themselves. Before too long I suspect we will go the way of Canada, and our rights to purchase products will be removed, ruining the lives and livelihoods of countless hundreds of thousands, if not millions. We will be controlled by a pharmaceutical lobby who has brought to us the likes of vioxx and countless other drugs that maim and kill. We have politicial leaders who have vested interest in pharmaceutical companies and that have torn protective walls down resulting in the poisioning of millions solely for greed, for profit.
I have been a part of this forum since its inception. I have very strong views and there are others here who also have similar views. In many ways many of us here are survivors of a battle to survive in this allopathic drug infested society. I do hope we can find ways to learn from each other.
Sincerely,
Arrow
