Doctors Only Know What They Were Taught
Our medical system which includes Education, Hospitals, and Pharmaceutical’s evolved over time. There are various conspiracy theories about our medical system, one popular theory suggests that the Rockefeller family played a significant role in shaping modern medicine. According to this theory, John D. Rockefeller, through the Rockefeller Foundation, had played a major role in medical education, hospitals, and pharmaceuticals during the early 20th century. The theory claims that this was done to control and profit from the healthcare industry. I am not claiming that theory is right or wrong, but I would be interested in proof of the conspiracy, if anyone has that please share it with me.

It is obvious that our medical system, including education, hospitals, and pharmaceuticals, are for-profit organization, but that does not make them evil or corrupt. They have always claimed that the excessive cost was due to the high cost of research, which is why one prescription can cost hundreds of dollars, putting it out of reach to those who lack Cadillac insurance coverage like our politicians enjoy, or is this another conspiracy theory?

Socialized medicine may not be the perfect solution, but neither is the for–profit system we currently have. Hopefully the Trump Administration will help solve this problem. Trump destroyed Obamacare his first term promising he would create something better, and he had four years to do that, but he did not, perhaps he will make good on that promise this term.

I have conquered my addictions to sugar and unhealthy food, but it took six agonizing years to accomplish that goal. It wasn’t until I began fasting that I understood how, then it dawned on me that if I could go without eating for a few days I could go without eating unhealthy food. The solution for me, if it is not healthy just do not eat until I find something that is healthy. I am not in charge of my gut, my gut is no longer in charge of me.
