Oh yes some drugs do save people Beth, but the overdosing of pharma drugs omg....and It is About MONEY, not a conspiracy.....
People do need medical care, no matter how much that may cost. Then, there are also those that don't have the money for medical care and it shows it. And, those that think they can do their own medical care, can, sometimes, find out that that doesn't work. As far as the rest of the money, other than normal everyday/every month expenses, people have a choice of who gets it and who doesn't.
Cody, the drugs would not be needed as you say, if the population took control of their nutrition and researched on how to keep themselves healthy... Lazy Americans MOSTLY.
Yes, and those websites you are always linking to are not about money? Are all those supplements you take free?
You know they are not free, what a nutty comment. But they do keep me from the deady lab pharma drugs.
My comments are no "nuttier" than yours. Everything is about money, and at least pharmaceuticals are regulated. Who knows what you are putting into your body with those "healthy" supplements. We each have choices to make; there's no need to post "the sky is falling" on those of us who don't agree with you.
As a matter of fact, I am. Pharmaceuticals saved my life and I am grateful for them. No amount of grapeseed extract was going to cure cancer and I hope you never have to find that out.
From my medical background as both an EMT and working for a Senior Heathcare Company for 4 years, lab pharma drugs are not deadly. That is, if they are taken correctly and the patient is diagnosed correctly.
And compare the medical deaths from drugs, vs deaths from supplements. Oh Brother.... Cody we know you are a proponent of the pharma drugs...
Yes I am, and I believe what my doctor tells me. He is a Reserve Lt. Colonel in the Army as a doctor and works for local VA. Taking care of your own health can be good and bad. There are those that wind up in the ER because they "think" they can do their own healthcare and not take any kind of meds. Entirely up to them, but, at our age, not very advisable.
Cody: We just agree at different opposite ends of the Spectrum Good that your doctors have you so they have job security.
I thing almost all of the supplements are just a waste of money whose only benefit is the placebo effect. But since the placebo effect is real, folks will swear that product XYZ cured them of Disease 123. No sense in debating them, they KNOW, By God, blah, blah, blah. You will see this on any online forum, especially one for Seniors. And as for being in it for the money, the #1 brand of vitamins is Kirkland. Lord knows, Costco does't want to make money.... https://www.zippia.com/advice/biggest-vitamin-companies/#:~:text=The largest vitamin company in,within the past 30 days.
