It's not just about chronic diseases - integrity and honesty, foundations of trust, are needed everywhere. I am just watching https://icic.law/2023/09/10/dr-rima-laibow-monstrous-sexualization-of-children-and-colonization-by-mind-control/ - It's Reiner Fuellmich interviewing Rima Laibow, 2 people whose integrity, honesty and intelligence I have had lots of evidence of - and therefore I trust what I am hearing.

Winning at any cost leading to an erosion of trust is making many of our institutions dysfunctional. Civilization depends on ethics.

Yup, 💯% true! Patients have lost their trust in the medical system for decades now. The gaslighting and corruption of the medical system to sell unproven drugs and defective devices for maximum profit have been rampant. How long can a system last if it continues functioning with nearly 90% of its “scientific peer-reviewed publications” delivering virtually zero value and shamelessly celebrating such achievements?!? How long can people allow their lives to be ruined because of the systematic failure of the system to prevent chronic diseases? Effective treatments to prevent chronic diseases are none existent. Early detection to prevent chronic diseases is discouraged, and dismissed by design. The late-stage-sickness-seeking-profiteering/plundering of the legacy medicine 2.0 sponsored by the medical industrial complex to promote the proliferation of chronic diseases must stop. Or, millions more people will die from premature deaths, and the American economy will be bankrupt.

In the brave new world of the Bright 21st Century Medicine 3.0, early detection of the root causes of chronic diseases is emphasized and supported to promote primary lifestyle optimization prevention at the lowest possible costs. People will live longer and healthier lives without the exorbitant costs. Scientific integrity will be respected and restored. 💯% honest and trustworthy Empirical evidence based research for the primary goal to ensure the highest possible safety and effectiveness will lead all of us to freedom and truth for all, a brand new worldview to believe in, finally! Trust of the people will return.

Early detection does exist but it's a scam as well, Take cancer for instance... we're busy as hell sticking cameras up colons and squashing boobs between plates to catch an image at ever increasing rates but not making a dent in colon and breast cancer rates or mortality.

The problem with this approach is two-fold. The first is cure rates are based upon 5 year survivorship - if you catch a cancer earlier in it's development it's impossible for more people not to meet the 5 years duration. And when the person dies at 5 years and one day after detection they're still called a survivor even though they're still dead from cancer. The second issue is that "early detection" leads to a cancer diagnosis before actual cancer exists. How many breasts have been lopped off or lesions removed and were called cancer that would bot have developed into cancer?

Cancer prevention rates are easy to game and are big business and like the author's article indicates makes healthcare extremely hard to trust.

I agree. However, your definition of early detection is entirely different than mine. Our decades of experience has taught us that detecting early signs of metabolic dysfunctions physiologically and implement lifestyle optimization techniques deter the onset of most of the chronic diseases Americans suffer. We all know by now obesity is the number one killer, not coronary artery disease which stems from a dysfunctional metabolic origin.

The Japanese figured this out decades ago and implemented public health measures to prevent chronic diseases. Their obesity rate is 4%; America has an obesity rate of 36%.

So, early detection of metabolic dysfunctions is key to changing how chronic diseases can be prevented.

I could not agree more that chronic disease stems from metabolic disfunction. The problem is few doctors check for metabolic disfunction. How many doctors even know about the Triglyceride/HDL ratio and what it means? How many doctors test fasting insulin? Instead doctors have a lazer focus on irrelevant stuff like LDL, which is a poor marker for heart disease.

If people stopped eating vegetable oils, sugar and grains chronic disease as we know would almost entirely go away. but instead healthcare is focused on pharmaceuticals and procedures because it's all a money-making scam.

Yup!

The doctors of the Japanese Society of Ningen Dock, credited for improving the metabolic health of the Japanese population, were pooped by the American big medicine until recently. They started monitoring and managing the impact of metabolic dysfunction and prediabetes decades ahead of us. Japanese who are overweight or obese with a protruding belly are called "Metabo." They are frowned upon culturally speaking. What we witness is the direct result of their work.

Without the industry standard corrupt quid pro quo, these are the same doctors who vigorously and independently investigated the efficacy of our technology, Premier Heart's Multifunction Cardiogram (TM), or the MCG, and determined that MCG is the best screening tool to detect cardiometabolic dysfunctions bar none! They also welcomed MCG into one of their best institutions in Japan, Keio University Hospital System, the American equivalent of Harvard Medical School, and Cleveland Cinincs combined! Imagine that!

Why has the Japanese achieved the low 4% obesity rate America could not?

It is because they emphasize providing high-quality, wholesome food and pay attention to the details of what’s healthy and what is not. They respect the fundamental science and adopt meritocracy instead of industry corruption and cronyism. They refuse to accept a rigged healthcare system.

I don't know much about japan's healthcare system but if they don't eat crap food then that explains their obesity rate.

I don't about respecting the fundamental science either because science can no longer be trusted with most studies corrupted by special interests.

The real scientists do not have the pomposity to declare “I represent Science.” Only the fake ones do. You know who I am referring to!

Sadly true, 89% peer reviewed published papers are worthless; only 11% are either common sense or high quality work. That remaining part of the “literature” is still redeemable. That IS the part that still follows the real science and empirical data. The Japanese are very data driven and hard core people with emphasis on real scientific principles. The results speak for themselves.

American Medical system is utterly corrupt, or “metabolical” as Rob Lustig describes in his most recent book.

The good news is that there are still people who care about good science.

It is not a total waste of resources, thankfully.

All we can do is to focus on the positive portion of the failed system and transform it.
