You want to talk about a pandemic in this world, we have a pandemic of medicating organs in the human body that have committed no crime. I really don't like the fact that in modern medicine we have this excuse. It's called idiopathic. Idiopathic means of unknown origin. If the origin is unknown, we should not stop until we find it. We shouldn't stop there and treat for a condition when we do not know the root cause. There are tens of millions of people walking the face of this earth right now that are on immunosuppressants, on anti inflammatories, on corticosteroids, on things to manage this immune system that just went haywire. Unlocking our immune system is the secret to longevity. This is where true life expectancy is extended is by empowering the God given immune system to do its job. There is no smarter resource on the planet than your immune system. We have adopted so many fallacies in modern medicine. The biggest one is.
