Bacterial Viral medicine ignored

If modern medicine was focused on attacking the CAUSES of illnesses that are related to a bacterial or viral infection, and giving therapies to CURE those illnesses caused by bacterials and virals, we would be a much healthier people.

The ulcer example is the easiest one to see - H Pylori infects the gut and stomach and that is the cause of ulcers. When those bacteria are removed, there is no more ulcer. Anti-biotics do not work very well however, as all the good gut flora is lost too. Therefore, either setting up the gut to acidic or base enough to kill the H Pylori off [which one is right, I am not sure], OR - using Colloidal Silver or H2O2 (Hydrogen-Peroxid) or Oregano oil or Probiotics or any number of treatments for killing hPylori off would work.

Instead, patients with ulcers are treated by doctors with whatever pills and surgery are available. That does not take care of the problem however, the H Pylori are still there!!! Notice that only in rare cases do medical treatments by doctors actually CURE a problem, mostly it just helps to ease the symptoms of ulcers. It is like taking painkillers for a broken leg when it really just needs to be set.

now, more and more, illnesses are found to have a bacterial or viral cause. Several cancers [cervical for one] are caused by viruses, dental decay is caused by bacteria, heartburn and ulcers are too, and chronic illnesses too. The list gets longer every week now. Anything to do with the gut is obviously affected by bacteria, either good ones missing or bad ones taking over. But that too is ignored by doctors.

At some point, more patients than just me will be demanding a look at the 'bug cause' of our illnesses and refusing to take the symptoms pills offered by docs.
