Dr. Peter Glidden joined the show and spoke about the current state of the medical industry.  He explained about the history of the competing medical practices from what is known today as conventional medicine (allopathic) to Naturopathic Medicine, chiropractic, acupuncture and homeopathic.  Through a century long PR campaign (Flexner Report) allopathic medicine has managed to come out on top of the heap in the western world, relegating all other forms of healing to the back of the bus.

Peter described how medicine is big business and is not results driven but profit driven.  If conventional medicine were results driven chemotherapy should have been abolished a long time ago.   Why?  Because according to the results of an in-depth study taken over a period between 1990-2004, chemotherapy has been proven to be ineffective 97% of the time.  The results were published in the Journal of Clinical Oncology.  Dr. Glidden’s analogy that if Ford Motor Company made an automobile that exploded 97% of the time they wouldn’t be in business was perfect. 

Dr. Glidden spoke about the (for profit) link between the medical industry and the pharmaceutical industry and how medical journals have basically become ad agencies for the pharmaceutical drugs.

Dr. Glidden then put many myths to rest about the cause behind some of the popular diseases that are prominent in the world today and it was mind boggling to learn that these conditions can be cured through naturopathic means as opposed to the prescription dependant medicine we have all been conditioned to believe is the only answer.

I urge you to listen to this show and have the strength and courage to rise above the conditioning we have been placed under.  It was really eye-opening and once again, I’m reminded of the saying;

“The truth shall set you free.  But first it will piss you off.”

Blessed be.
