Let us call this a U.S. Health Care Gap

By Gary Null PhD, Carolyn Dean MD ND, Martin Feldman MD, Debora Rasio MD, Dorothy Smith PhD

A definitive review and close reading of medical peer-review journals, and government health statistics shows that American medicine frequently causes more harm than good.  The number of people having in-hospital, adverse drug reactions (ADR) to prescribed medicine is 2.2 million. ¹ Dr. Richard Besser, of the CDC, in 1995, said the number of unnecessary antibiotics prescribed annually for viral infections was 20 million.   Dr. Besser, in 2003, now refers to tens of millions of unnecessary antibiotics. ^{2, 2a}

The number of unnecessary medical and surgical procedures performed annually is 7.5 million. ³ The number of people exposed to unnecessary hospitalization annually is 8.9 million. ⁴ The total number of iatrogenic [induced inadvertently by a physician or surgeon or by medical treatment or diagnostic procedures] deaths shown in the following table is 783,936. It is evident that the American medical system is the leading cause of death and injury in the United States.  The 2001 heart disease annual death rate is 699,697; the annual cancer death rate, 553,251. ⁵

  Herbal deaths 1/1,000,000 (JAD) (that's a possible 1 in one million people)

The "laws" in this country are geared toward protecting the profit margins of Big Pharmaceutical companies.   Medical Doctors are the only ones sanctioned with the ability to "prescribe" and they must prescribe only PHARMACEUTICAL DRUGS approved by the FDA.. Efficacy apparently isn't a concern since according to current studies Iatrogenic deaths ( caused while under the care of a physician or hospital )  are currently the LEADING cause of death in the united States.

From our license agreement, on every page related to herbs, and throughout our website we've made it abundantly clear that we do not diagnose, prevent, treat, prescribe or remotely claim any type of cures.    We're unaware of any magic health bullets that anyone can take for instant good health or to reverse a lifetime of bodily abuse.   Your body and your maker are the only source of “cure” for anything that ails you.   If your body gets the right fuel and the right exercise it will be healthier.   Every body is different, your diligence, persistence & knowledge will help you discover what your path to good health is and how you can develop and maintain good health.   Foods & herbs are merely the fuel, you are the driver and your maker is the engineer...when all work in harmony the results are as nature intended.

Traditional healers have know what modern research is just discovering and that is that it appears using aromatherapy is the fastest way to achieve a positive psychological or physiological effect.   Many research universities are learning how volatile and quickly positive results can be achieved.   One research project at the University of Manchester, in England, has shown that just Eucalyptus and Tea Tree oils can KILL live Tuberculosis cells in just 40 minutes.   Do you know of anything synthesized that can approach those incredible results?   Aromatherapy effects the neurochemistry of the brain and can help to clear sinuses, free congestion in the chest, relax, invigorate and produce changes in emotional and mental behavior.   Even subtle, undetectable aromas can produce significant results within your central nervous system.

Aromatherapy oils 'kill superbug' ( http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/health/4116053.stm ) Original article

Essential oils could kill the deadly MRSA hospital 'superbug', scientists have claimed.

University of Manchester researchers found three of the oils, usually used in aromatherapy, destroyed MRSA and E.coli bacteria in two minutes. They suggest the oils could be blended into soaps and shampoos which could be used in hospitals to stop the spread of the superbug. Hospital-acquired infections in the UK, such as MRSA, kill an estimated 5,000 a year. US hospital infection deaths are 88,000 yearly.

Dr Peter Warn, who carried out the research, said:

"When I tested the oils in the lab, absolutely nothing grew.  Rather than stimulating bacteria and fungi, the oils killed them off."

The team then tested 40 essential oils against 10 of the most infectious agents found in hospitals, including MRSA (methicillin-resistant staphylococcus aureus). Two of the oils were found to kill MRSA and E.coli almost instantly, while a third was found to act over a longer period of time.   Dr Warn says the essential oils could be used to create much more pleasant inhalation therapies - which he said were likely to have a much higher success rate than the current treatment, which is only effective in around 50% of cases."

Jacqui Stringer, clinical leader of complementary therapies at Christie Hospital in Manchester, instigated the oils research.   She said: "Our research shows a very practical application which could be of enormous benefit to the NHS and its patients. The reason essential oils are so effective is because they are made up of a complex mixture of chemical compounds which the MRSA and other super bug bacteria finds difficult to resist.   The problem with current treatments is that they are made of single compounds which MRSA relatively quickly becomes resistant to, so treatment is only successful in around 50% of cases.

Essential oils are extracted from the leaves, bark, roots, flowers, fruits, nuts & berries of herbs, shrubs & trees.   Essential oils have been used for thousands of years to restore, maintain & enhance health, increase well being and in beauty routines. Essential oils produce aromatic molecules that interact with your nasal cavity giving signals that are modified by various biological process before reaching your brain's limbic system. The limbic system is considered the emotional control center of your brain.  The aromas create various impressions associated with previous emotions & experiences.   Directly connected to the portion of the brain, the limbic system controls heart rate, breathing, memory, blood pressure, stress levels & hormonal balances.

Thousands of French medical doctors use essential oils in their therapies, they are able to use any modality that they and their patients agree to use.    Unlike the American system that MUST use synthetic, highly profitable pharmaceuticals that merely suppress symtoms, French doctors can use natural remedies.   Could this be one of the reasons France enjoys the #1 best medical care in the world, while Americans are forced to "enjoy" the 37th "best?"  Viva La France!

Grand marketing schemes often produce great results at the consumers expense, beautiful botanical names, catchy wording, great wrappings and photographs will give every indication that a product is made with nothing but the freshest and best natural, botanical ingredients.

Try pronouncing the actual ingredients on commercial anti viral & anti bacterial products..... Are they really natural or synthetic?.... Natural handcrafted anti viral & antibacterial products are not mass produced, they contain only pure and natural ingredients, so the ingredients list on the label should be easy to pronounce, unless the Latin names are given, and understood.

This bombardment of synthetic chemicals is possibly one reason so many people are suffering from multiple chemical sensitivity. products using “fragrance oils” or additives haven't any aromatherapy benefits.    Is just smelling good really a sufficient reason to use something synthetic?
