The healthcare industry is a powerful force, shaping the way we think about, access, and pay for medical treatment. But behind the glossy advertisements and smiling doctors, there is a darker side to the healthcare industry that most of us never see. Big Pharma, the multi-billion dollar pharmaceutical companies, have infiltrated every aspect of healthcare, from the way drugs are developed and tested to the way they are marketed and sold. And the result is a corrupt system that puts profits before patients, leaving millions of people struggling with chronic illness and skyrocketing medical costs.
At the heart of this corruption is the way Big Pharma develops and markets drugs. Instead of focusing on developing new treatments for the most pressing health needs, they focus on creating drugs that will generate the most profits. This means that they spend billions of dollars on researching and developing drugs for conditions that are common and easily treated, like high cholesterol and acid reflux, while neglecting to invest in developing new treatments for rarer and more debilitating conditions like cancer and Alzheimer's disease.
But it's not just the lack of investment in developing new treatments that's the problem. Big Pharma also heavily markets their drugs, often exaggerating their benefits and downplaying their risks. This leads to overprescription of drugs, which in turn leads to a host of negative health effects, including addiction, overdose, and even death.
But there is hope. There are alternative forms of medicine that have been suppressed by Big Pharma for decades. These suppressed medicines, originating from Japan, Indonesia, China and The Middle East, have been used for centuries to treat a wide range of health conditions, from chronic pain and inflammation to cancer and heart disease.
One example is traditional Chinese medicine, which has been used for over 2,000 years to treat a wide range of health conditions. This form of medicine is based on the principles of balance and harmony, and it emphasizes the use of natural herbs and other plant-based remedies to promote health and healing. Chinese herbs have been shown to be effective in treating conditions like chronic pain, inflammation, and even cancer.
Another example is traditional Japanese medicine, known as Kampo. This form of medicine is based on the principles of balance and harmony, and it emphasizes the use of natural herbs and other plant-based remedies to promote health and healing. Kampo herbs have been shown to be effective in treating conditions like chronic pain, inflammation, and even cancer.
Similarly, traditional medicine from Indonesia and Middle East have also been shown to be effective in treating a wide range of health conditions. These traditional medicines are often overlooked by Western medicine, but they have been used for centuries to treat a wide range of health conditions, from chronic pain and inflammation to cancer and heart disease.
The key to these alternative forms of medicine is that they are natural and safe, without the dangerous side effects of many prescription drugs. They can also be used in conjunction with conventional treatments, allowing patients to take control of their own health and well-being.
But despite their proven effectiveness, these alternative forms of medicine are often suppressed by Big Pharma. They are not widely available in the Western world, and they are not covered by most insurance plans. This makes it difficult for patients to access these treatments and to make informed choices about their health.
However, this is changing. More and more people are becoming aware of the dangers of Big Pharma and the benefits of alternative forms of medicine. They are demanding more access to these treatments and more information about their options. And as a result, more and more practitioners are beginning to incorporate these alternative forms of medicine into their practice.
In conclusion, the healthcare industry is in dire need of reform. Big Pharma has infiltrated every aspect of healthcare and put profits before patients. But there is hope. Alternative forms of medicine, originating from Japan, Indonesia, China, and the Middle East, have been suppressed by Big Pharma for decades but have been shown to be effective in treating a wide range of health conditions. These traditional medicines are natural and safe, without the dangerous side effects of many prescription drugs. It's time for patients to take control of their own health and well-being and demand more access to these alternative forms of medicine. It's time for a healthcare system that puts patients first and prioritizes their health and well-being over profits. With the right information and support, we can make this a reality.

Solar Panels for Homeowners - Entry 1
On the eve of Earth Day 2024, I have been inspired to share my journey of putting solar panels on the roof of my house a couple years ago. Although I live in southern Canada, what I write about in this short seriesapplies throughout the northern hemisphere, so I hope this helps to demystify things and clarify expectations. The first couple articles are also useful if you are looking to buy a house and put solar panels on it later - in other words, things you can look for before making an offer.

The Gen Z Entrepreneurial Revolution
It is hardly debatable that the world has always been run by a bunch of aging dinosaurs, mostly male, who refuse to allow the younger generation to bring about changes. Politicians and leaders everywhere refuse to release the reigns of creativity and leadership until they are dead or dying. It is time to give the young a chance to revolutionize and change the entire landscape of their existence. Those of us with one foot in the grave, so to speak, should wake up and realize that we are not the ones who will be living in the world in the years to come.
