    This talks about why so many drugs are given to the people who not only really don't need them but can actually make us sicker.

    Well, even though our Metformin prescription, for Diabetic II, can give us diarrhea, both of us absolutely need the prescription meds that we get.

    Cody it is not about all medications, some like you say are lifesaving and needed, it is more about other drugs that can cause worse side effects and health problems than the illness itself.
    I think cholesterol statins are one of these drugs for many people and some heart meds that are no better than aspirin and have more bad side effects.
    Also, some treatments like stents are not any better for 'some' people than plain aspirin taken regularly. The man who invented the stents admits this.
    I took one of the heart drugs and it caused me horrible side effects, after two days of hell from it I got online and researched the alternative, which 'in many cases' it is aspirin.
    This was Sept 2019 and I have used aspirin only since then.
    IMO exercise and diet work best for many.
    Other drugs are the anti-depressants which have caused the death of many veterans, one I knew personally.
    Did you watch the video?
