"Our health care system needs change. Instead of real health care, we have only sick care. Instead of natural foods, we have processed, chemicalized foods. Instead of nutrition and natural supplement research, we have only studies paid for by the drug companies. Our commitment to you is to find the answers to your wellness questions through scientific research and public education." Al Sears, MD, Founder | |

Doctors Often Hex Their Patients
Health Alert 229 Dear Subscriber: The next time you go to your doctor complaining of an ache or pain, pay close attention to what happens during your visit. Be wary if your doctor pulls out a prescription pad right off the bat. Taking drugs doesn't just keep you from finding a cure - it can make you even sicker since many pharmaceutical drugs put a strain on your body because they are toxic to your system. Blindly accepting prescription drugs indicates that you believe that your body can't heal itself without powerful prescription drugs. Today I'll show you how to break the "prescription drug" curse that's afflicting millions of Americans every day and protect yourself from bodily harm. * Modern Day Hex - Are You A Victim? * Amazing as it sounds, modern day hexing exists. It all starts when you quietly accept prescriptions without considering alternatives. Or when a well-meaning doctor tells you something like, "You'll never get that under control with just diet and exercise alone. I'll need to prescribe something for you." Then you start the medication and begin having uncomfortable, irritating side effects. Before you know it, you're on five different medications, you feel worse than before and now you're broke.

Shortly after beginning treatment for her cancer, she required insulin injections for diabetes. Given two months to a year to live, she felt powerless looking at the last few months of her life filled with months of radiation and chemotherapy treatments. She'd had enough. She quit her cancer therapies and decided to enjoy what was left of her life. Her body, once clear of the pharmalogical toxins, regained its balance. Then she came across an all-natural herbal tea called essiac - a mix of burdock root, sheep sorrel herb, rhubarb root, and slippery elm bark. Two months later, her doctor proclaimed her cured. A few weeks later, she stopped her insulin injections. Soon she started doing what she dreamed of - traveling the country.1 It sounds incredible. But the truth is that the body is built to heal naturally.2 You just have to give it the nutrients and minerals it needs to be healthy. * Break the Hex - And Keep Your Health, Your Sanity, and Your Wallet In Check * Doctor and natural medicine expert Andrew Weil, M.D. calls the prescription and reliance on prescription drugs "medical hexing."3 And I have to agree - I've seen too many patients cursed with the psychological, physical, and financial damage of prescription drugs. Many patients come to me taking 11 medications or more. Some of them spend as much as $500 to a $1,000 on prescriptions a month after insurance. Many patients suffering from everything from diabetics to high cholesterol to a terminal illness have been "cured" over time simply by:
