Statistics of diseases
The destructive nature of disease on the planet is absolutely wiping us out. From Cancer to Diabetes, from AIDS to Arthritis, our planet is being overrun by an epidemic of diseases unlike the world has ever seen before. Don’t you think that it is unusual that most of the diseases that are affecting the world today cannot be cured? And the way things are going they never will be cured. We live in a world of ever increasing technological and medical advances and yet, they still cannot find the cure to the simplest colds and flu’s. Diabetes was the 6th leading cause of death. One in Two men will get cancer; One in Three women will get cancer. Heart disease is the leading cause of death for both women and men. Arthritis affects 1 in 5 adults. About 1/3 of adults in the United States are overweight, and 32.2 percent are obese, and a huge number of these obese people are Diabetic.It is estimated that Depression will become the second most common cause of disability, after heart disease, by 2020. It is thought that more than one million people are living with HIV in the USA. In the U.S., chronic conditions affect about 125 million people and are the leading cause of illness, disability, and death. An estimated 60 million people have two or more chronic conditions. Cancer is now the number one killer among children aged 1 to 14 and Cancer rates in children has risen by 20%.
Toximolecular medicine
Toximolecular medicine, used by the majority of doctors is the administration of drugs at sub-lethal levels. Drugs, of course, are alien chemicals which serve to cover-up the disease process – to mask the difficulty, not eliminate the real cause. Orthomolecular doctors and nutritionists believe that the treatment of infectious and degenerative diseases should be a matter of varying the concentration of “right molecules”. They offer symptomatic relief but often at the cost of severe and dangerous side effects. They create dependence on the part of the patient and often complicate the doctor’s job by erasing valuable clues as to the real source of the trouble. Of course, drugs can save the life of an ill patient, as can surgery and the other techniques at which doctors are so expert. But the paradigm is changing. The evidence for nutritional therapy is becoming so strong that if the doctors of today don’t become nutritionists, the nutritionists will become the doctors of tomorrow.
Mercury Toxicity
If you have a good diet, avoid obesity and do not smoke, then your chances of good health are greatly increased, as these are very much the senior factors. It is wise to take account of other factors though. We are all exposed to environmental toxins, such as harmful chemicals in the water, on and in our food, and in the air. As well as testing for biochemical imbalances in the system, including deficiencies of important nutrients, a nutrition consultant will also check for excess amounts of toxins such as lead, aluminium, cadmium, etc. Even our fillings can cause problems. We would like to draw your attention to an individual case of Chronic Fatigue Syndrome which was not resolvable by nutritional means alone. This was because the real cause was Mercury poisoning, a form of toxicity which has very similar symptoms to CFS. If you have had a lot of dental fillings with mercury amalgam, and you suffer from chronic fatigue, you may have the answer right there in your mouth! The following article relates the moving experiences of a CFS sufferer who resolved his illness only when he eventually discovered that dental mercury poisoning was the cause.
