Can You Get Well Without Medicine?

If you ask any honest medical doctor how they cure diseases, they will tell you that MOST acute disease conditions and a smaller, though significant percentage (probably a majority) of chronic disease conditions are self-limiting and will, given time, get better all by themselves. So for most complaints, doctors see their job as giving comfort and easing the severity of the symptoms until a cure happens.

This same scenario, when viewed from a hygienist's perspective, is that almost all acute and many chronic conditions are simply the body's attempt to handle a crisis of toxemia (toxins).

For two reasons the current crisis will probably go away by itself.

The positive reason is that the toxic overload will be resolved: the person changes their dietary habits or the stressor that temporarily lowered their energy level and produced enervation is removed, then digestion improves and the level of self-generated toxins is reduced.

The negative reason for a complaint to "cure" itself is that the suffering person's energy level drops below the level that the symptom can be manifested and the complaint goes away because a new, more serious disease is developing.

This second possibility is highly undesirable because strong, healthy bodies possessing a high degree of energy level are able to eliminate toxins rather violently, frequently producing very uncomfortable symptoms that are not life-threatening.

However, as the energy level drops, the body changes its routes of secondary elimination and begins using more centrally located vital organs and systems to dispose of toxemia. This degeneration producing less unpleasant symptoms, but in the long run, damages essential organs and moves the person closer to their final disease.

A young vigorous body possessing a large degree of energy level will almost always route surplus toxins through skin tissues and skin-like mucus membranes, producing repeated bouts of sinusitis, or asthma, or colds, or a combination of all these.

Each acute manifestation will "cure" itself by itself eventually. But eventually the body's energy level can no longer create these aggressive cleansing phenomena and the toxemia begins to go deeper. When a doctor gets a patient complaining of sinusitis, they know they will eventually get a cure. The "cure" however, might well be a case of arthritis.

Thus, the physicians main job is to get the patient to be patient, to wait until the body corrects itself and stops manifesting the undesired symptom. Thus comes the prime rule of all humane medicine: first of all, do no harm! (The Hippocratic Oath).

If the doctor simply refrains from making the body worse, it will probably get better by itself. But the patient, rarely resigned to quiet suffering, comes in demanding fast relief, demanding a cure.

In fact, if the patient were resigned to quiet suffering they would not even consult a doctor. So if the doctor wants to keep this patient, they must do something. If that something the doctor must do, does little or no harm and better yet, can also alleviate the symptoms, the doctor is practicing good medicine and will have a very high cure rate.

If the physicians curative procedure suppresses the symptom and/or lowers the energy level with toxic drugs or surgery, the doctor is practicing bad medicine. But this doctor too will have a high cure rate because their drugs really do make the current symptoms vanish very rapidly.

Additionally, their practice harmonizes with a common but vicious dramatization of many people which goes: when a body is malfunctioning, it is a bad body and needs to be punished. So lets punish it with poisons and if that don't work, lets really punish it by cutting out the offending part.

However, if the physician can do something that will do no harm but raises the energy level and/or lowers the level of toxemia, this doctor will have a genuine cure rate higher than either of the two techniques.

Why does raising the energy level help? Because it reduces enervation, improves the digestion, lowers the creation of new toxins and improves the function of the organs of elimination, also reducing the toxic overload that is causing the complaint.

Techniques that temporarily and quickly raise the energy level include homeopathy, chiropractic, vitamin therapy, massage, acupuncture and acupressure. Healers who use these approaches do nothing to lower the level of toxemia being currently generated. Their patients do experience prompt relief but must repeatedly take the remedy.

However, the best approach of all, focuses on reducing the self-generated level of toxemia, cleansing to remove deposits of old toxemia, rebuilding the organs of elimination and digestion to prevent the formation of new toxemia, and then, to alleviate the current symptoms and make it easier for the patient to be patient while their body heals, the healer raises artificially and temporarily the energy level with vitamins, massage, acupressure, etc. This wise and benevolent physician is going to have the highest cure rate among those wise patients who will accept the prescription.
