Outlawing ALL unproven medical practices,
#28
RE: Outlawing ALL unproven medical practices,
I think that the first point would go further than copper bracelets and hoodoo dolls. What about outlawing SSRI depression medication. In Exploding the SSRI Myth I read that SSRI (selective serotonin re-uptake inhibitors) medication was no more effective than placebos in all tests. A great moment was when someone asked the author is that meant they had no effect, and he said "oh no, they certainly have side effects". Here in the States it seems retired Pharma men end up working for the FDA and it is becoming undeniable that the FDA is not doing it;s job. Look at it passing all of Monsanto's dangerous, unethical and poorly designed (and very dangerous) "patented genetics". And the passing of SSRI's which may cause far more harm than good.

If we're gonna ban the bullshit medicine, we have to get all of it. I would assert that I think a lot of modern medicine is snake oil. Did you see the newest commercial about so-called "preventive medicine"? Take these pills every day, and you won't get sick. They could be vitamins, or they could just be chalk. But at $120 a bottle or whatever ridiculous prescription price, why not?

What about Canadian companies making HIV and Malaria drugs for cheaper to sell and donate, and getting sued by the owners of the intellectual information? The brown people living on a dollar a day can't afford you 4000% mark-up, so we are not stepping on their toes or affecting the bottom line...

I am all for the re-thinking of medicine, but instead of trinckets and flim-flam I want to take a serious look at the retardation that is modern medicine. Fluoride in the water! A topical! It's like drinking skin cream and hoping it has some effect. Oh, it will have some effect for sure...

Silly modern medicine. Thinking positive thoughts, controlling what we can and not what we cannot. Having faith, and mostly just being brave in the face of the unknown. Much better for you health than all these pills combined...
