Conventional vs. alternative medicine

Here is a little rant, triggered by a video posted here earlier (I have foolishly blocked the lovely person who posted it, and cannot unblock). I happen to know a bit about medicine, and worked with several doctors, and have read a lot of their forums. First, unlike the video claimed, all doctors recommend healthy foods as a way to prevent, manage and sometimes even reverse most serious chronic conditions. Yes, even diabetes and heart disease can revert to moderate and stable stage, so you would consider them cured. But no superfood will help you if you have a broken bone poking through the skin. You will need that set and stitched up. Once this is done, healthy foods can definitely help you heal faster, and any MD will be happy to recommend them to you. Likewise, cancer is not going to go away on its own. The cap was popped, some of your own cells do not care about your survival or well-being, and they will not go quietly into the night. Healthy foods can lessen the symptoms, or help recovery after treatments, but they do not replace treatments. Just ask Steve Jobs, he was a smart guy with access to every cure in the world. Everybody knows that treatment for cancer is dangerous (can't tell bad cells from good ones). Which is why we do biopsy, a 100% accurate test of whether cancer is there or not. If you do not believe that doctors act in best interest of the patient, do believe me that they are very afraid of malpractice lawsuits, and insurance companies are very strict in authorizing risky treatments (because they pay for the consequences). So please do get your cancer screenings, especially if you like to drink/smoke/vape/inject. PS Patient-facing doctors (and pharmacists) hate corporate interests in healthcare even more than you do. Pharmaceutical companies and their PBM "wholesalers" are on top of the hate list. But they still use their drugs because they know what happens if they don't. PPS I know elephants fight cancer naturally, as their immune system can recognize cancer cells and kill them. But we are not elephants, and are nowhere near finding the relevant bit of elephant DNA or getting it to work in humans.
