I am disgusted when doctors behave more like used car salesmen than healers. The human body is much more than a used vehicle. Physicians should be more than drug dealers trying to sell people on pills.

But Dr. Oz and his cohorts are at it again! Now they are pushing birth control pills as a way to prevent cancer. Shocking, but that’s what happened today!

As if it’s not dangerous enough to take the birth control pill to prevent unwanted pregnancies; now these medical experts insist that taking the pill when women are over 40 will ‘prevent’ cancer.

Dr. Oz and Birth Control Pills Used for Women After 40

I say, “This is BS”. I cannot more vehemently disagree with this application of a drug.

There are safer, more effective ways to prevent cancer! No woman needs to take birth control pill for this reason. To do so places them at risk for side-effects and there’s absolutely no guarantee that this drug will really protect a woman from certain types of cancer…there are only statistics and doctors with nothing better up their sleeves.

When a doctor begins to play around with hormones, it spells trouble. They just don’t know enough to do it well for each patient. This is when the patient becomes the guinea pig for experimentation without the proper care and feeding of the animal by its keeper…

This is not the way to practice medicine! it is repugnant. I would never put myself or my daughters in this position when it presents such an unnecessary risk.

I would think that women over the age of 40 would be smart enough to seek out the professional assistance of true Healers who know how to keep a human body well, instead of only managing diseases with drugs or surgery. There are plenty of responsible health care professionals who will be accountable and guide you through the jungle of healthy Lifestyle choices and ways to maintain Wellness. This is the key to prevention of disease. You work with those whose attention is squarely based upon Wellness.

Doctors are versed in disease management, that is NOT prevention. Do not let them twist your mind to confuse the issues. They see your body as a vehicle with spare parts that can be refitted with new parts, drugs, or surgical procedures. I cannot agree with this perspective of turning your vibrant physical body into a machine.

Wellness comes when a person lives a healthy Lifestyle every day in body, mind, and spirit. it’s a dynamic process, not a study in pharmaceutical statistical significance. Let’s draw a clear line in the sand here.
