Unfortunately, the medical establishment and the people have been conditioned to focus on the symptoms and not the cause. One just has to view the TV advertisements: psoriasis, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, constipation, acne, insomnia, hair loss, overweight, chronic fatigue, and on and on. I can’t remember ever seeing an advertisement focusing on the cause for cancer, high blood pressure, vertigo, acne, obesity, cataracts, insomnia, fatigue, etc. Big Pharma has taken control and brainwashed the doctors and public to accept treating the symptoms as good medicine and normal.
The real problem is that the medical schools do not train doctors to diagnose the cause. All the fancy blood tests, MRIs, CAT scans, nuclear medicine radioactive testing, and PET scans reveal the body’s reaction to the underlying causes but not the real cause(s). A perfect example, in 2011 a patient came to me because the doctors wanted to do a liver transplant on Fred. Luckily for Fred he rejected their proposal and for good reason; he most likely he would have died from a virus because the steroids that Fred would have been on for his entire life would have suppressed his immune system. For twenty-seven years, Fred had a swollen liver and the golden standard of medicine could not diagnose the underlying cause(s) for his swollen liver. So their solution was simple give Fred a “new” liver via an organ transplant.
This Newtonian mentality pervades medicine and society today. It’s easier to treat the symptom. Suppress the high blood pressure; surgically remove a “dysfunctional liver; prescribe sleeping pills and give chemo to kill the cancer. Because the doctors do not have the diagnostic skills or knowledge to define and treat the root causes for patient problems they simply mask the symptoms.
It takes a physician who is willing to take the road less traveled to learn the real causes of disease and the real natural remedies to cure them. Just like conservative political views, the establishment doesn’t want any doc veering off the reservation and using remedies that are not drugs and will reduce their revenue stream. Diagnosing the root cause(s) takes years of learning and skills to perfect their accuracy. Then the doctor is faced with the big hurtle that of educating the patient to accept real medicine. Most people want the pill for every ill rather than have to take responsibility for changing their lifestyle. The take away message is simple, masking the symptom only delays the damage of not addressing the underlying cause(s). Just like the commercial says, pay now with an oil and filter change or pay later with an engine job. If you want to enjoy a quality of life, one must pay their dues and make the right choices.
