의견 ;
2일 이상 먹어서는 안되는 발암물질 극도의 주의가 필요한 약을 왜 먹는가?
중요한 장기들 간, 콩팥이 망가지는 이 약을 먹는다고??
질병의 원인을 알고, 고쳐야지 이런
‘요로 진통제, Urinary Tract Analgesic’ 가 왜 필요할까?
요로자극 [irritation of the urinary tract] (즉 다시말해) ; 통증, 타는듯함, 급하게 또는 자주 소변을 봐야 한다는 느낌 [feeling of needing to urinate urgently or often] 이 있으면,,
원인을 찾아야지,,
이런 약을 처방하는 의사는 환자를 살리는게 아니라 환자들을 죽이는 의사,,
의사들은 무엇이 병의 원인인지는 절대 밝히지 않고, 알려주지도 않고,
증세에 의한 약만 처방한다.
왜냐하면, 환자들이 자연치유, spontaneous healing 을 하면
의사 병원의 수입이 급격히 감소하기 때문이다.
의사와 병원은 자연치유를 알아도,,
가족이 아니면 알려주지 않는다.
병을 고치려고 약을 많이 먹는 사람은, 병을 고치는게 아니라
부작용으로 일찍 죽는다.
하지만 의사는 환자 걱정을 안한다.
매년 환자는 계속 생겨나기 때문에,,,
