Re: Part Five
...I'm a layperson who has had to educate myself regarding the human body, nutrition and the diseases that affect the body. Like most people, I blindly trusted the medical community and naively believed that their first priority was to the good health of the patients they see. Unfortunately I had to wake up to the truth that a change had occurred in conventional medicine, where first priority was to the business of medicine and increasing the pockets of the pharmaceutical companies.
Now medicine has gone from healing the body of disease to modern day suppression of the symptoms that signal disease (a dangerous practice). There is a big difference between the two. Where the medical community went wrong is in the fact that they assumed because we were laypeople (uneducated in the field of medicine) that it also meant that we were unintelligent. As a result, they believed that whatever they told us, no matter how foolish (like good nutrition and water consumption is irrelevent to good health), we would believe it.
We didn't trust the medical community because we were stupid; we trusted them out of respect. Now the blinders are falling off and the laypeople are finding cures where doctors said there were none. You don't have to be a mechanic to know that a tire salesman is ripping you off when he's trying to sell you a square tire. In the same way, you don't have to be a doctor to know that water and good nutrition are essential to the good health of the human body. This is how the body functions; and is where it gets its nutrient sources. It is a 'square tire' for the medical community to suggest otherwise. What you put in your mouth has a major impact on the health of your body.
You deserve much better treatment than you've been given over the years. You also are worth taking better care of yourself. I like your honesty and your forthrightness regarding your poor eating habits over the years and hope that you understand the importance of replacing those poor eating habits with good ones. Your questions deserved thorough answers and I wasn't going to let anything deter me from bringing them to you. The human body is resilient. You can reverse the damage done. When you do, teach what you have learned and help someone else to end the unnecessary suffering.
