Why Do They Tell Us To Ask Your Doctor First?

The average doctor does not know how to use burdock root correctly. The average doctor does not know about Equisetum leaves. 


Yet, they will tell you to avoid it. Why are we so quick to prescribe drugs that we know has no nutritional value?


Why are doctors let off the hook for prescribing drugs that are harming hundreds of thousands of people? 


The worse part, most people who suffer don’t even think it’s the “medicine” when in reality the medicine is causing most of the symptoms, anxiety and pain they are feeling.


An FDA approved drug means absolutely nothing. Too many people die each year from prescription drugs for us to be silent about!


The more prescription drugs a person takes & the longer they take them, the more rapidly their health deteriorates. Any doctor will tell you this. But people are conditioned not to ask docs questions. 


For context, according to The Journal of Patient Safety:


Between 210,000 and 440,000 people who go to the hospital for care “suffer some type of preventable harm that contributes to their death”


This includes misdiagnosis & medication. Medical errors are an under-recognized cause of death. Even properly prescribed drugs cause about 1.9 million hospitalizations per year.


If 200-400k people die from medical errors, this means more people die from medical errors than diabetes(83k) & stroke (149k) combined. Take this into consideration

Introduction- Vitamin D: The vitamin & Hormone ⬇️ Vitamin D or Cholecalciferol. The name has "chole" attached to it because cholesterol is tied to it...meaning you need cholesterol to have good Vitamin D and vice-versa. 🙂 Vitamin D is a fat-soluble vitamin that has two forms: vitamin D2 and vitamin D3. Fat soluble means that the vitamin requires proper amounts of fat to be absorbed properly- they are stored in fatty tissue. Although many doctors may give an injection/pill of the vitamin D2 form, this form doesn’t have long-lasting effects in the body. The body prefers vitamin D3, which you can only get from the sun and animal products naturally. Vitamin D is the only vitamin that can be obtained from sunshine – and the only vitamin that is considered a hormone. Vitamin D2 may be found in some plant foods as well as some supplements. Vitamin D3 is found in animal foods, eggs, fish and in supplements. Be aware that the supplement Vitamin D3 is not always the same as getting it from food. "The body prefers vitamin D3.. which you can only get from the sun and animal products naturally. "

How are herbs alternative medicine when they were here first?
By Adam Burton 23 Jul, 2020
A lot of talk about masks but not enough talk about improving the immune system. Not enough talk about supplementing with raw elderberry daily. Not enough talk about cellular repair. Not enough talk about garlic extact being anti-viral. Not enough talk about drinking real herbal tea daily. Not enough talk about increasing iron in the diet to help the bodies immune system. Low iron means low oxygen. (The lungs need oxygen) Do we really believe wearing a mask protects us more than building our immune system? Once again they have convinced us to treat the SYMPTOM instead of the ROOT ISSUE.
