WHY DO WE TRUST WESTERN MEDICINE?
Hi, my name is Dick Miller. I am just a normal guy a little over 70 years old and of course, I am very concerned about my health. There are a number of things that frustrate me a great deal about standard conventional medicine. In many ways, it is very corrupt. Yet, there are doctors and others that are trying to clean up the mess and create a more successful system. In my opinion, we have a number of problems which are so frightening no one wants to solve them. Ignorance on the part of the public-at-large is one of the major problems. There are those that take advantage of this ignorance to make very large amounts of money by herding the ignorant into health care programs that only increase the sales of the drug companies and hospitals.
Dr. Michael Ozner, considered to be the world’s leading preventive cardiologist, has written a book titled “THE GREAT AMERICAN HEART HOAX”. He exposes the corruption that exists in the care of patients suffering from heart disease. The fact that the United States spends over $60 billion dollars a year for invasive cardiovascular care is overwhelming. Dr. Ozner makes a point that research has shown procedures that are now common heart procedures, i.e. Coronary artery angioplasties, stent placements, and coronary bypass surgeries, are of little value and do little to extend life. He goes on to point out that there are cases on record showing these procedures quite often can make things worse for the patient. Another disturbing stat says the United States has five percent of the world’s population, but 50% of the bypass surgeries and stent placements are performed in the USA. The rest of the nations on Earth have smaller per capita heart attacks and far fewer heart-related deaths.
Dr. Ozner does not believe we have to live with clogged arteries and a growing risk for heart attack or stroke. He believes there is a better path of treatment not relying on invasive procedure, costly surgery, and a constant loss of quality of life. He has seen many; many patients avoid heart disease and actually improve their health and life.
In short, heart disease can successfully be treated by improving the patient’s metabolism. Research has shown that the secret to improving a person’s heart is to pay attention to their diet. Dr. Ozner puts his patients on the Mediterranean diet. Research has shown heart disease is a direct result of the heart and body not receiving the nutrition it needs. This is supported by the fact that the Mediterranean Diet has over a thousand years of history to support it. To this, science is adding the antioxidants Resveratrol and Quercetin. Research will play a major role in the future. I will concentrate my energy to explore the prospects for each of these supplements.
