Guest guest Posted December 6, 2008 Report Share Posted December 6, 2008 On various health related e-lists, I frequently see posts by people who trust what their doctors tell them. These folks cannot comprehend that that their doctors just can't keep up with all the new discoveries, new research, and approaches never taught to them in med school. Doctors are very specialized specialists. Anything beyond their specialized knowledge is unknown to 99% of all doctors. So doctors give misleading information on vitamins, and know nothing of therapies which many on this list understand in depth. I just watched a short video on youtube which demonstrates how quickly our world (and out worldviews) our changing. " Did you know? " http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nteiqLgZFOU & feature=related Future Shock was a book written by the sociologist and futurologist Alvin Toffler in 1970. The rate of change has drastically increased since 1970. At this point in time, NOBODY can keep up with all the latest information discoveries. For me, e-lists, like this one, enable me to see health challenges and solutions from many different perspectives. Some people I know scoff at me for thinking I know more than an M.D. I laugh back and tell them that the MD knows vastly more about prescription drugs than I do, but I know more detailed information about supplements, vitamins, and alternative perspectives than most docs ever heard of.
