You may have already read Martin’s
story. Here's a quote from it:
"True to the indoctrination I received as a regular member of this
society and culture, instead of looking for the cause I was trying to fix
the problem - my symptoms. It is curious how conditioned we are by our
society in which we interact with others, and learn from them how to handle
"problems". In my search for a solution I was seeing medical
doctors, orthopedic surgeons, chiropractors, naturopaths, physiotherapists,
and a good range of more esoteric therapists, including Rolfing, Bowen,
Feldenkreis, cranio-sacral, McKenzie, Alexander, and more. Each of them
worked on me and produced some relief, although I was still suffering a
relapse several times a year, during which I would be unable to sit in
a chair, sleep in a bed, drive a car, or do many other activities we take
for granted.
The decline continued. I was still eating the Standard American Diet,
and I was beginning to put on some weight. In year ten I came down with
severe allergies, debilitating me for several weeks each spring. I went
to my doctor for help. He offered me Sudafed. I asked if that was going
to cure me, and he said no, I would have to take it for the rest of my
life.
Not one of these well trained people suggested mercury poisoning, and
yet, that's what I was suffering from. Not one of them tried to find the
cause, they were all just treating the symptoms. ... ...
The biggest enemy of your health is your behavior. We dig our graves
with our teeth, and with our stupid habits. Nutrition, exercise, clothing,
makeup, air, water. We fill and cover our bodies with dead food and toxic
chemicals. We eat food that is devoid of nutrients our bodies need: enzymes,
minerals, trace elements and a long list of necessary nutrients.
When you eat food bought in your grocery store or cooked in your fast
food restaurant, you are eating food stripped of nutrients, yet filled
with toxins. You can never eat enough to feel nourished. Your body screams
for more nutrients. So you eat. You consume lots of calories, but not enough
nutrients. Your body screams for more. No wonder you are gaining weight
and can't keep it off!
When you get sick, the health insurance is your worst enemy. People with
insurance go for procedures not because they are needed, but because they
are covered. And doctors compound the problem. Their entire belief system
about health, illness, its causes and cures, is based on the wrong premise
that healing comes from without, rather than from within. As if lack of
health could be caused by lack of some concentrated pharmaceutical poison.
That would mean that we evolved in a chemical factory, not in the tropical
forest."
