The View and the Medical Loss of Vision: Do Doctors Typically Make This Mistake?
Last week on The View, I had tuned in just before TheDoctorsTV was scheduled to air on my local station. I caught a segment that featured a doctor who had just written a book.
She was being asked some questions by the women of The View. When this physician was asked about Cleanses, she appeared to make a major mistake and seem confused. Her answer made me realize that it might be the case that many physician’s are out of touch with what patients and REAL people are dealing with in their day-to-day lives. Do doctors quit learning about public health care issues when they graduate from medical school…it seems that some do after listening to this female physician talk about Cleanses and the human body.
If I didn’t know better, I would have been embarrassed FOR her. She is the product of a limited training program at the medical educational institution where she was trained in Western Medicine. They seem to not know about the toxic environmental issues that plague a large percentage of the civilized world these days after the industrial age which introduced synthetic chemical agents that pollute the human body.
The human body was never equipped to attend to synthetic chemicals that are man-made pollutants that do not occur naturally in our environment. Your body is not designed, nor has it developed the capability to remove chemical and biological toxins. Eventually the body may adapt, but not today!
So what do you do when you encounter a doctor who makes such a mistake as to say that the human body can eliminate all the wastes and doesn’t need a Cleanse? You find a more educated and well-informed doctor. Do not go back to that doctor. Do not trust what that doctor tells you without getting a second opinion. Find another doctor who stay current on public health issues and environmental issues. They will know what you mean when you wish to discuss Cleanses.
Let’s face it…not all medical educations are the same. You cannot be certain that what one doctor knows is also known by another doctor trained at a different institution. There is some level of standardization in the training programs of medical students, but we can clearly see where that ends…
Doctors and other health care providers are expected to stay on top of current issues in health care. They are expected to be aware of the concerns and risks that their patients face in the real world, beyond the medical texts and an anatomy chart. The physiology of the digestive system can be learned in a class or two, but to gain the experience to assist patients with the toxicity of the colon, the liver, the blood, and the lymph in real life is gained from Private Practive. I suppose this is one of the reasons why so many millions of people have turned to holistic practitioners. These are the professionals who have continued to edify their knowledge and enhance their Private Practices with extensive additional training and treatment protocols.
Finding a doctor who has written a book, but is sorely uninformed is probably one of the major reasons why so many people seek the holistic health care professional out these days. Those folks have a greater understanding of health risks than the book-writers coming out of medical school without taking a class that provides information about environmental health risks. Oh, well, it’s her loss, because people will seek out providers with expertise in the area of interest to them. We no longer settle for anything less. Most people now realize that doctors do not ‘know it all’ nor are they the end of the road for finding proper care and management for health and wellness.
Still…it amused me to find that the staff that produces The View would let a question be asked that could not be adequately answered by their guest. They should have prepared the segment with greater care and attention to detail. They’ll learn for the next time…or at least we hope they will.
How do you find a doctor that has the degree of expertise that you demand? You have to know where to look for and locate such a health care professional. We now have Directories and special publications both offline and online to assist people in finding them. In our area, we created the Natural Choice Directory. Many of these publications can be found in the health food areas of grocery stores like Freddy’s or your local Food Coop. You can find them at your local health food stores or online.

There are comparable Directories all around this country and around the world. You might have a publication in your own community like this one in Oregon.

It’s weird that a gastro-enterologist would know why farts smell like sulphur and that people who are lactose-intolerant would suffer from more gas when they eat dairy foods; but for her to be in denial that the toxins in the environment require a Cleanse to support the detoxification process for synthetic chemicals, heavy metals, and other toxic substances is simply surprising!
Does Raj know the difference between being ‘turned on’ and ‘euphoria’? When she answered the ViewTube question, it appeared that she confuses the two which are entirely different states of Being. At least they are in my book… She perhaps missed the part in one of her classes about neural networks and the pathways that when used repeatedly create a neurological pathway that is chosen when a stimulus is applied to the body. In this case, when the act of breast-feeding one’s infant occurs, the nerve impulses that send signals to the brain have been previously conditioned by a sexual partner’s stimulation of the nipples. The new mother needs to learn that there is a SUBSTANTIAL difference between the mother-infant bond of loving care and nourishment….and the sexual act of excitation of the nipples and the breast with a partner. Come on…is there no precedence for Raj in her life about that…?
She knows about crusty tight jeans and rotisserie chicken, but she doesn’t know about environmental toxins that the colon, liver, and lymphatic system are unable to manage to detoxify without external support through supplementation. Where’s the education of our doctors when you need it? If she spent more time with topics that are more significant than yucky stuff; perhaps she could have fielded this question about Cleanses with a more coherent and satisfactory answer.
I have a two word answer for those of you who are seeking the most ideal natural health product for Cleansing the body of synthetic chemicals, toxins, heavy metals, and inorganic substances:
That’ my View…and make no mistake about it! Your human body cannot do the impossible on its own, so get the support your body deserves when detoxification is desired to maintain your health.
