As a nurse practitioner, I agree with this. It is why I left the medical profession and devote myself to encouraging people to trust their bodies.

Great article - needs to be read by EVERYone. Specially doctors that try to stop the body from healing itself, and all the people who constantly run to the doctor for everything. Rest and warmth are two of the best things to do when sick!

Makes perfect sense when you present so clearly. Night sweats when I was drinking heavily was clearly helping my poor body clear from the toxins I was ingesting. Sleep, my professor told me, is when our neuro transmitters are made. When I sleep really well, I always feel as though I have a "clean windshield and a full tank of gas" and I am ready to GO! Everyday I am soothed by your knowledge and insight. Not to throw the molecular biology out the window at all, but to work with the molecular biology instead of messing around with it just because we can MANipulate, doesn't mean that MANipulation is useful or healthy. Relating to Western medicine is tricky and you help so much.

It's simple; doctors and drugs are the death of health. Without your health, you feed these monsters until your dying breath and dying dollar. If you be healthy, the medical mafia becomes desperate to trap you in its eternal clutches. For torture and profit.

Thank you. This is a fascinating essay that has helped me consolidate my instincts & thoughts.

I purchased Dr Pitcairn’s book this morning.

Insights into the healthcare system, the role of the pharmaceutical industry, and the broader context:

I usually don’t mention my professional background. I don’t believe in "expertise." University studies and specialization in a particular field often result in otherwise intelligent people becoming conformist—and arguably less, rather than more, intelligent.

The most important prerequisite for understanding, gaining insights, uncovering the truth, and personal growth is the constant questioning of everything and everyone.

Another foundation of intelligence is the ability to make connections—to apply insights from one area to other, sometimes completely different, areas. Terms like "generalizing" or "thinking from first principles" aptly describe this.

After all, almost everything is interconnected. The human body is a prime example of this: all organs and cells interact and influence one another. It is a highly complex system that we understand, at best, only in its broad outlines.

Medical doctors are increasingly trained as specialists, an approach that fails to reflect reality. We treat symptoms; hardly any doctors investigate the root causes of diseases. Disease prevention and the factors contributing to a healthy lifestyle are barely covered in medical school. Yet, even the actual curing of illnesses receives little emphasis.

Having firsthand experience with the healthcare system, I'm confident enough to say that this is intentional.

It's not so much the doctors themselves. I think most doctors want to help people. It's the training and the system they work in that's the fundamental problem. There are parallels to most professions here. Teachers are a prime example.

But back to the healthcare system.

The entire healthcare system is designed to produce as many sick people as possible. Virtually every sector within the system profits most when as many people as possible are sick for as long as possible. The incentives are set up in precisely this way—perversely.

This is an obvious and fundamental insight that receives far too little attention.

The pharmaceutical industry certainly plays a crucial role in this. Chronic illnesses and serious diseases like cancer, ...
