I really like this blog

 
He makes some very good points in this post.  I think he tells it like it is concerning people who dispense false promises, fake science, etc!

Lynn492010-09-10 06:55:39My wife has been searching and searching, for the last couple of months, for "what I did wrong" to cause this RA.  Placing blame can be very liberating.  Ramen,
 
When I was dx'd with RA, one of the questions the doc asked was - did I have any relatives with RA?   I asked around and discovered that an uncle and great-uncle on my father's side had had it .... so  .... I can blame  them  lol!   (My mother's side  passed on the tendency to develop migraines, and early OA).
   Moral:   chose your parents carefully

Prior to my diagnosis (and remaining afterward as well) I was a person who took extremely good care of their own body - regular exercise, yoga, ate extremely well.  A plant based diet and lots of organics, bottled or filtered water - the whole shebang.  I get the RA and ...

"It's that organic food it's going to kill you"

"I don't want to hear it, you people who go to these gyms are breaking down your own bodies."

I know exactly what you are saying....
 
 
I agree with all of you, no matter you can still get anything!  Sad ~~~~~It seems like this could be pertinent to some of the "discussions" that are taking place on this forum right now.
Anyway, I thought it was a good read when I first posted it and my thinking remains the same now I AM STARTING TO THINK THAT ALL SENIOR MEMBERS ARE A PART OF THE SAME BAND OF DRUG WHORES AS IT APPEARS THEY ARE THE ONES WITH THE CLOSED MINDS AS THEY GENTLY, SLOWLY AND INDIRECTLY WITH CAREFULLY CHOSEN WORDS CHOOSE TO DOWNGRADE NATURAL HEALING. I ON THE OTHER HAND KNOW THE POWER OF THE BODY TO HEAL ITSELF AND WILL NOT BE SWAYED WHILE ANY THAT ARE CAN DO SO KNOWING THEY WERE WARNED AND THEY HAD THE POWER TO CHANGE THEIR LIVES. SENIOR MEMBERS SEEM TO LIVE HERE AND HAVE NO OTHER REASON TO BE HERE OTHER THAN THE FACT THEY ARE PAID TO BE HERE JUST SO MORE DRUGS CAN BE SOLD AND NATURAL HEALING CAN BE RIDICULED. ALAS THE BAND OF DRUG WARRIORS ARE A WAR READY BUNCH AND HAVE MUCH EXPERIENCE FIGHTING THE BATTLE AND THERE ARE SO MANY OF THEM, BUT NEVER UNDERESTIMATE THE MIND OF THOSE SUFFERING AND NEVER UNDERESTIMATE THE INTELLIGENCE OF THOSE READING THE WORDS POSTED HERE.
