Guy Evans just sent me an email about the spice curry curing cancer. Of course, we reported this many years ago (curcumin, a component in curry), but Guy’s email really made me think that, in advancing science today, we are more accurately advancing nutrition! The sad part is, they want to make curry a drug, so they can profit from what Guy has had in his fine products all along! Absolutely nothing shocks me anymore with regards to scientific “breakthroughs.” Dr Jennings’ Ms. November is another in her fascinating updates on the value of thinking “antifungal.” How I wish every doctor was this advanced, but we have to remember that 60 years ago (in my lifetime!), 4 out of 5 doctors smoked Camels! In another 60 years, 4 out of 5 doctors will use antifungals! Let’s see, I’ll be 120, but Methuselah made it! Dr. Jennings also gives thanks in her great article!

Mark Twain once said, “The reports of my death have been greatly exaggerated.” Sadly, Mark, the exaggeration legacy lives on, at least in science, and it has now become an epidemic.

The very core of medicine is crumbling, and I am smiling, because following closely behind this failed system may come a kinder and gentler healthcare system. I’m not particularly smiling for those who fail to acknowledge how important it is to take good care of their health, because they may continue to require our current mediocre medical system, procedures and pills. To that end, ignorant patients are absolute gold to the very system that now questions their own procedures and pills. To those of you whom I meet at every lecture throughout the USA, congratulations! You have taken back the responsibility of your health and your ship has come in.

Resocialization-the best way to get us to take our Swine Flu vaccine!

 

Dictionary.com defines the term “resocialization” as a noun meaning “the process of learning new attitudes and norms required for a new social role.”  I know what many of you are asking; “what’s wrong with our current social roles?  Why do we need to reestablish new attitudes and norms?”

I literally cannot watch television, listen to the news in my car or open my laptop computer screen that the “Swine Flu” isn’t getting 95% of all coverage.  I’m 59 years old and was my son Evan’s age when the first Swine Flu scare came about back in 1976. I recall thinking what hype it was and learned about 8 months later that my recollections were accurate.  Worse, we learned that Swine Flu vaccines, rushed to the market in 1976, were injurious.  What has changed?

Although I have no statistics to prove this, if I were a betting man, I’d wager a handsome sum that Pediatric Allergists’ offices are deluged with patients in September each year. I’ve known many allergists throughout my career and, unlike other physicians, they really do try to locate “the cause” of their patients’ maladies. Even if I believe that implicating a simple plant like ragweed is erroneous….give them credit, they are trying. It is likely that every September, tens of thousands of parents rush their sniffling children into an allergist’s office. But why September, and why all of the sudden is this child allergic to ragweed?
