Would Americans be healthier if all doctors were required to learn about nutrition?

(NaturalNews) In the early 1900s, the American Medical Association removed virtually all nutrition classes from the medical colleges, so that every student of medicine, from there on out, would be focused on but one mode of treating patients: prescription, patented chemicals that relieve only the symptoms of much deeper rooted health problems. This guaranteed two things. One: return business. Two: easy money for doctors and pharmaceutical companies that would take over the American Medical Industrial Complex that was soon to be the core of mainstream Western medicine. You see, doctors in America at that time were broke. Natural healers, Native Americans and midwives were handling most health situations, not to mention the discovery of many of the natural vitamins, like A, B, C and D.

Then came World War II, after which Nazi scientists helped American medical researchers concoct cancer-causing pesticides, vaccines, chemotherapy, toxic food additives and preservatives, and of course, carcinogenic pharmaceuticals. Big pharma knew then, as they know now, that people who eat healthy, locally-grown farm food, herbs and raw organic produce do not experience the preventable diseases and disorders that are so popular in America today. If medical doctors, including pediatricians, simply understood and were educated about this, there would be no money in medicine, and how would they then afford those three-story homes, luxurious automobiles, swimming pools and costly vacations?

If MDs understood nutrition and advised their patients accordingly, we would see a drastic drop in all of the preventable and curable diseases and disorders, including cancer, Alzheimer's, Parkinson's disease, heart disease, strokes, diabetes, dementia, arthritis, osteoporosis and more.

Naturopathic physicians know the power of nutrition and advise their patients accordingly

So what's the big difference between medical doctors and naturopathic physicians, you may be asking? For starters, naturopaths combine the wisdom of nature with modern science, instead of slinging chemical medicine at everybody. They focus on holistic and proactive preventative medicine through comprehensive diagnoses that minimize the risk of harm. Some people think learning nutrition is easy, but naturopathic doctors (NDs) undergo rigorous training before they become licensed healthcare practitioners. NDs treat all medical conditions, including allergies, digestive issues, respiratory conditions, heart disease, chronic pain, fibromyalgia and chronic fatigue, and they even perform minor surgeries. They are also trained to utilize prescription drugs; however, their emphasis is on natural healing agents. NDs stay up-to-date with the latest scientific research and will help you set up a customized health management strategy. It's time for you to do this!

What are your health goals? It's time you take the time to make some health goals, if you haven't already, and to address them, so that you can reach them and maintain them! NDs can diagnose you in the same way MDs do, but NDs are equipped with a whole new arsenal of treatments and insights that head off disease and disorder at the pass, instead of just prescribing meds to cover up and relieve symptoms. Affordable and sensible healthcare is about prevention and natural living, not chemicals piled on chemicals piled on more chemicals. Just because MDs are trained to juggle prescriptions doesn't mean they know anything about safety with medication, because, truly, no chemical medications are safe. Today's pharmaceuticals are pushed through without human safety testing, as the ultra-rich and powerful manufacturers simply pay off the FDA and the CDC to turn their heads, while highly experimental drugs are tested on the human guinea pigs of the country and the world.

You are an intelligent, holistic being whose body and mind deserve respect and wholesome care. Don't fall for the Big Food, Big Pharma scams that send so many people to an early grave after spending every dime they have on useless treatments along the way. Stay positive, stay smart and make the first choice to visit a physician who has spent many years learning how to heal the body using nature's own remedies! You may even want to become a natural healer yourself.
