Arrow from Dr. Rubin Jordan -

How to Get Sick:
A Modern Prescription for Illness


How to Get Sick: Take Lots of Medication

There may be a time and place for prescription medicines, but many create more health problems than they cure. Often, they simply treat symptoms rather than the root causes of illness. Additionally, every medication has a side effect. Medications such as antibiotics, oral contraceptives, and corticosteroids may cause major gastrointestinal and liver problems, damage the immune system, and alter enzyme function.
For example, taking a baby aspirin each day to prevent heart attacks can have a dangerous downside. Aspirin can cause bleeding in the intestinal track and can be toxic to the liver. You get similar health benefits with no side effects by consuming foods in The Maker's Diet such as cold-water fish, fruits and vegetables high in antioxidants, and certain botanicals that naturally reduce the Cox-2 enzyme that causes inflammation.

PS:
The Antibiotic Bandage
Are you setting yourself up for illness? If you repeatedly use broad-spectrum antibiotics, you may encourage the overgrowth of dangerous bacteria in your body. These organisms recolonize quickly after you finish a round of antibiotic treatment, causing more disease symptoms. In many cases, the condition then won't respond to additional drug treatment. In this way, taking too many antibiotics becomes a temporary bandage placed over more serious health issues with far-reaching consequences.


you can get these suggestions free from Dr. Jordan in your own daily emails- if you wish?

Resolve to be tender with the young, compassionate with the aged, sympathetic with the striving, and tolerant with the weak and the wrong. Sometime in your life you will have been all of these.
