Post For consideration

When the primary therapies available for treatment are so toxic, and are given to patients who take them knowing they offer no guarantee and so little promise, it is reasonable to continue to raise questions about them. To some who are trying hard to hope, raising questions about current common practices can seem like a very negative thing to do. But how else would we ever move on to better treatments? To me it is sad that there have not been more people willing to take the heat for criticizing common practice, given that we end up with so much disagreement about therapy among the experts who recommend these toxic treatments to us.

One book that makes some positive logical suggestions is The Truth About Drug Companies; How They Deceive Us and What to do About It, by Marcia Angell, M.D.
