No reason I can summon, that is why I do not trust doctors. Among the many things they try to foist on patients, is the notion that drinking, at any level, is bad. I have heard this from almost every doctor I have seen, the ones who did not say so only omitted doing so because they were actually far too busy doing something that they actually do know something about (or think they do?). Here is one indication of how wrong doctors are. My guess is this also works with other things. Smoking tobacco, I might agree with the general findings. However, I will not stand by that absolutely. As for chewing tobacco, I doubt the prevailing medical opinion absolutely if without concrete evidence. What I have found though, is there has been NO RESEARCH into health benefits of chewing tobacco. Why? It is political in nature. Tobacco gives to Republicans, and despite what any particular doctor eventually smartens up to believe (if he gets beyond his indoctrination), the system which indoctrinated him from professor to dean to member of the AMA is so leftist it is scary. Researchers to physicians, this group cannot be relied on to use the science they claim as their cover. Anything regarding diet, health practices, to... almost anything they suggest, is at least questionable.
If doctors knew what they were talking about, there would be a lot less drug use in their ranks, they would be healthier and happier people, and they would honestly be able to help people with serious complicated health issues. Here is another example, how many overweight people have been helped by modern doctors? How many people do they functionally cure, from any disease, illness, or imbalance? These are not doctors who heal. These are pseudo scientists who use humans as guinea pigs. If I had a way to do it, I would make sure my doctor could not sell my file (even stripped of "personal information") to researchers. That, I think, is as much about what they do as anything. Do you honestly trust researchers? Bah!
One day they tell you drink will kill you, next it'll save you, same for just about everything.
ReplyDeleteDoctors can only help and advise, the rest is up to us to figure out for ourselves.
One thing i've learned recently, it's mighty hard to find a good doctor and not one who just wants to push you through to the next patient.
Let us be honest. Doctors used to receive little pay. They did the work because they were called to it. Today, it is the money and prestige that convinces some average Joe (and they are average) to step into the indoctrination mills we call universities and medical schools. Much of what they are taught is implied, much of that is "liberal", none of this is good for medicine.
ReplyDeleteTrust is earned, and you are right, a good doctor is hard to find. Then again, since they have to hide behind lawyers, half of our medical care is court implied anyway.
Our parents took what our grandparents made and pissed on it. I guess we are the beneficiaries of the 60's and 70's. Those of us who made it out of the womb.
