Modern Medicine Is Depressing

I read alot of the experiences of people on various health groups and one thing seems to be typical. Most docs really dont have a clue about health.

They know alot about symptoms and which pill to give, what test to run...so they know which pill to give. Yet they know bascially nothing about how the body works and what causes the symptoms.

If their medical schools taught how the body really functions, every doctor on the planet would know about the importance of iodine. One cannot possibly exclude the other. Iodine is used by every single process within our bodies. Every hormonal function is determined by Iodine. Every vitamin and mineral regulated by Iodine. So why is it that most doctors learned to fear iodine in their schooling and never test for Iodine deficiency?

A few never even test for thyroid problems. There are millions of men women and children whose thyroids are being slowly destroyed because their doctors arent testing for iodine deficiency. Same with Adrenals.

There are millions of depressed people because their doctors dont test for iodine deficiency.

Undiagnosed iodine deficiency and thyroid imbalance start a chain reaction of symptoms or as the medical society like to call it, disease. Some are born deficient, starting life within an iodine deficient mother.

There is a slow but growing trend among medical society doctors to prescribe iodine. Even an upward usage of iodine by naturpathic physicians to use more(perhaps because natural docs tend to listen to their patients body and current science rather than what they learn in school or from the pharm reps).

Yet we still have the very biggest percentage of doctors will never test for iodine deficiency. They will wait years to test your thyroid function, if they ever do at all. Most docs will attribute depression to the need of a pill. Or talk it out. Like you can talk out the proteins leaving your intestines going straight to your brain effecting your neurotransmitters or the lack of iodine depleting magnesium, but the pill will hide your symptoms if you just wanna feel better today ;-)

They will attribute weight gain with overeating. Never mind that that overeating is probably a form of PICA, the need to eat mass quantity of food to get miniscule amounts of vitamins and minerals with the inability to break down fats. Or, there are those that eat 1200 calories and still gain weight and cant figure out why cause their docs dont test for the cause (iodine deficiency).

They will attribute your high blood pressure to overeating or stress or table salt and they have a pill to fix it. Except they arent really fixing it, just masking one of the many signs of iodine deficiency.

Reading about every day people on the health groups, several thousands of them, the life they have lead till now, putting their faith in doctors is just really depressing. Then there are the people prominent in the media who also suffer the fate of the revered medical society. Vivid images in my mind of iodine deficiency and medical harm.

I have list of the most famous iodine deficient people floating in my head. Oprah is probably the most famous. Vincent D'Onofrio is one that i find the saddest cause he is one of my favorite actors and is obviously struggling with health issues related to iodine deficiency and thyroid problems. Brendan Fraser. Elizabeth Taylor. So many iodine deficient faces in our every day life.

The other day i saw a picture of Roger Ebert and added him to my list.I felt much sadness for what that man has obviously gone thru. The image left an even sadder thought that he is not alone, just one image of the many millions of others. He is now one of Hollywood's poster children for the unecessary damage the Medical Society can inflict.

I use to watch Siskel and Eberts movie reviews, liked the content of their show. Mr. Siskel was an iodine deficient casulty. Mr. Ebert showed signs of iodine deficiency and thyroid disorder long before he got to the point of that shocking image i saw. How did his doctors miss that ?

Perhaps because doctors dont routinely test for Iodine deficiency. Years of deficiency leads to thyroid problems. Which lead to glandular damage and thyroid death (cancer). Years of iodine deficiency leads to vitamin and mineral depletion which create more symptoms("disease").

So they cut out his thyroid. Big mistake. First they gave him cancer inducing radioactive iodine just to take pictures of the thyroid(RAI). Then they cut out the one thing that was trying to keep cancer from growing in other places. Like his jaw. Or as other docs theorize cutting into the mass of cancer cells creates a massive exodous to other parts. Cause cancer is a fungus or mass of viral bacteria colony or an explosion of unchecked growth(depends on who you ask). Cancer, or fungus, starts small, insiduously growing, lurking. The level of iodine deficiency and the damage that deficiency has caused will determine the level and pace of growth. But the very first mistake that is always made is not either supplementing iodine or testing for iodine deficiency. Cause everyone is deficient. Ok there might be a 1% of the population that isnt but hey we dont know cause they dont test!

Its a mistake that 99% of doctors make daily. And the images all around us of modern medicines biggest mistake, intentional or not, continually seeing these iodine deficient images is sad.

The stories of people who finally find the solution, iodine sufficiency and vitamin and mineral supplementation to fix the years of damage, changes the image and the feelings to health and happiness.

Iodine. Really is that simple.

Ask your doctor, "Am I Iodine Deficient, Can you Test for Iodine Deficiency?" His, or her response will give you a clue how to proceed. Anything other than yes is sign to question. If cutting anything out is suggested, run and dont look back ...

The way doctors cut things out is one of my worst nightmarish thoughts and one of my next blog topics. But now, Off to make jewels while the sun warms up the day then finishing cleaning my pool from its wintery mess.
