Modern Medicine


Two stories about modern medicine have me worried:

- Scary! Assuming this is just "sports supplements" and not Omega 3 fish oils and things like Vitamin D. Or am I wrong? Should I be ordering from only Onnit just to be safe?

- Supplements aren't the only things that are dodgy - medicine is plagued by untrustworthy clinical trials. If you thought randomized clinical trials were the gold standard - think again.

    Having spent 40+ years in the american "healthcare" system, having lived in the land ruled by the "
    pooh" man 3+ years (teaching at university level, icluding one stint at a medical university), I believe most would be astounded at how much they have infiltrated all aspects of "america", including medicines, supplies, equipment and even "waste". I chose to adopt this attitude- if I don't produce or have full faith and personal knowledge of every person involved in producing Anything that enters my body,
    I avoid it.
    the level of evil is far more pervasive and "subtil" than most can believe.
    it's nearly impossible to find evidence online of what i speak, as the "soft" censorship is so vast.
    fwiw...

  2. Thank you. Had the feeling that knowing how the sausage is made would put me off eating sausage.

    I try eating only real food - nothing processed. Now, sadly, will have to adopt that same attitude toward supplements. Guessing the best I could do is only buy from Onnit because I think Joe Rogan and Aubrey Marcus have the same attitudes toward putting anything in their bodies.
