Doctor or Glorified Drug Dealer?

     Too often I have heard people say "I have to take a drug for my high cholesterol because my doctor says it's hereditary, and only the drugs will work and nothing else." When they first found out from their doctor that they had high cholesterol, he told them to cut our the cholesterol in their diet. Of course this never works, their cholesterol climbs even higher. It's at this point the doctors will tell their patients that it's because it's hereditary.
     A few questions come to mind, like; are doctors that ignorant when it comes to physiology, do they really care about their patients, or are they just trying to make their quota for the drug companies in order to get their kick back dollars?
     First of all, eating cholesterol doesn't cause your cholesterol to go up unless you are eating destroyed cholesterol from frying it at high temperatures, second, your body desperately needs cholesterol for the many uses your body has for it, third, when you cut your cholesterol out of your diet, your body goes into panic mode and starts making cholesterol from sugar, which will make your cholesterol rise very rapidly and at the same time tax your liver and cause your liver to become fatty. So taking a drug to lower your cholesterol that is harmful to your liver (this is why they have to check on your liver every six months) is a really bad idea.
      An elderly lady told me her new doctor said she should take cholesterol medication, even though her cholesterol was at a healthy level, because people her age have a tendency to have their cholesterol rise. I told her that her doctor was nothing but a glorified drug dealer and to find a better doctor who doesn't prescribe drugs to a healthy individual. Her doctor sounded to me like he was trying to build on his quota in order to get his monetary kick back from what ever drug company he was pimping for.
     Drugs are not nutrients, you can't give them out to people to keep them healthy like supplements, because they have side effects do to the fact that they do NOT belong in an organic human body.
     I long to see the day when a doctor will suggest natural supplements for an ailment and only turn to a drug when all else fails, using it only as a last resort.
     I once had a friend who asked me "what is the difference between a doctor and a drug dealer?"
The answer was "one wears a black coat and the other wears a white coat, they both push drugs."
     People of this great nation need to stand up to their doctors and demand better health care instead of the cookie cutter health care they are receiving now, only in this way, will we leave to our children a better health care so they can live healthier lives on this drugged out planet of ours.
Forcing everyone to have health insurance isn't solving the problem but, only adding to it.
