HEALTH CARE EPIDEMIC
As of April 2, 2009, the leading causes of death annually in the United States according to the Centers for Disease Control are as follows;
Heart disease: 652,091
Cancer: 559,312
Stroke: 143,579
Chronic lower respiratory diseases: 130,933
Accidents (unintentional injuries): 117,809
Diabetes: 75,119
That is 1,561,034 people last year who died from mostly preventable diseases. That is over 13 times the number of people who die in accidents. It doesn’t include the number of us who have suffered a heart attack or stroke and lived, or who are fighting cancer, respiratory diseases or diabetes.
Below is the number of estimated new cases of these diseases in 2008 in the U.S. alone:
Heart disease: 650,000 new occurrences + 450,000 reoccurrences of heart attacks
Cancer: 1,437,000 newly diagnosed patients
It is estimated there are over 11 million people currently fighting cancer
Stroke: 700,000 new occurrences + 100,000 reoccurrences
It is estimated over 4.6 million people have had a stroke – 30% left with disabilities
Chronic lower respiratory diseases: no information for newly diagnosed cases
It is estimated over 16 million people have chronic lower respiratory diseases
Diabetes: 798,000 newly diagnosed patients
It is estimated there are over 16 million people have diabetes
The American Medical Association relies on pharmaceutical medicine to treat the symptoms of these diseases despite the fact that these diseases can be eliminated by proper changes in diet and lifestyle. Even the New England Journal of Medicine, a very prestigious medical publication, acknowledges that diet and exercise can completely eliminate many diseases. Yet doctors are still taught to treat symptoms with drugs rather than trying to cure the disease.
When I went to my doctor to find out what I could do to reverse my diabetes I was told that it was a lifetime condition and could not be reversed. Even the American Diabetes Association admits diabetes can be reversed. I think doctors are good overall and care about their patients. They are simply misinformed on many diseases. Doctors have good intentions, but the pharmaceutical industry will lose money if people are actually healed. Diabetes is big business that generates multi-billions of dollars in the US alone. Not to mention the monies brought in annually for heart disease, cancer and other preventable, treatable diseases. It is in the best interests of the drug companies keeping people as lifetime customers.
The drugs and insulin prescribed by your medical practitioners do nothing to promote healing. They simply treat symptoms. If anything they screw up the balance of our bodies and strain an already strained system. My high blood pressure was lowered to normal readings, my cholesterol to healthy levels and my diabetes was reversed. I don’t take any drugs for these or any other condition.
This book is written to share what I have learned after much research, reading and asking questions of others who have reversed their diseases. I know of individuals who were cured of their cancer by making basic changes that anyone can do. Many are the same things presented here that I used. It takes a little effort, mostly to change a few bad habits and add new ones. It can be accomplished by anyone.
