Re: The high cost in dollars and lives of mainstream medicine

i heard nearly all drugs are made from herbs.  isn't that correct?

yeah, the drs did that to my friend.  everytime i saw him, they had him on many drugs and were always running tests.  it began with a simple pain in his elbow or something a rather.  before i knew it, they were giving him sleeping pills and indigestion pills and he was waking up in the middle of the night and running into the wall.  so, guess what, they had a couple pills for that, too.  i saw this guy go from not taking anything to getting so wrapped in the system he ended up having a stroke and in in a care home.  he's only like 77 and he always was young and got around well, had a big old motorcycle, 1600 honda, i think it was.  within 6 yrs, the drs made his life go to hell.  it sickens me how many people we have to lose because of the greed for money.  i see no end to it in our present economic system.  big pharma is in control.
