Modern medicine does not treat symptoms as symptoms are subjective to the patient but rather medicine is designed to treat the signs of disease. and as i stated above to gwb235 i do not wish to come across aggrssive or emotional about this, that isnt my intention.
also like i said to gwb235 i believe education on our diet and what we put into our bodies is key but just because something is the "first" does not make it the best.
Big pharma i agree do not care about people and i know the medical system in the U.S is extremely flawed, but here in Australia big pharma have alot less influence over these sorts of things. Of course they still try and peddle their drugs to doctors and patients but i believe we have a very good medical system here and to ignore that for herbal treatments and remedies seems ignorant to me.
I have a friend who was recently diagnosed with a type of lymphoma and required bone marrow transplants blood infusions and a large selection of pharmaceuticals but hes now in full remission and recovering well. Sure an Ayurvedic diet may of helped him before the onset of the disease but i doubt it would of helped him once it was there.
As for vaccinations like you say yes they contain mercury, but if youre going to attack vaccinations in that way please cite peer reviewed studies and reference where your information has been observed scientifically.
Im very open minded but without proof it is simply an opinion and so far the only medical professional to put forth anything against vaccines has been proven time and time again to be completely fabricated. Argue against vaccines all you want but the removal of diseases like polio in modern society due to vaccines speaks for itself, along with the thousands and thousands of case studies that back it up.
As i said i believe that holistic and herbal remedies and prevention have a part in society but they cannot and will not replace actual medicine when it comes to treating disease that has already formed.
Again i wish you luck in your endeavor and sincerely hope you achieve success and can genuinely help people but rather than putting down science based medicines let your results speak for themselves.
