DISEASE & THE SEARCH FOR CURES. Is it possible to find a cure without first knowing the cause?

If your car, or washing machine, breaks down, the mechanic you employ to fix it will first need to ascertain the cause. 

Only then will (s)he be able to fix the problem.

Yet this is not what conventional medicine does. Indeed, our doctors usually go out of their way to deny one of the most important causes of serious illness and disease - iatrogenesis.

I realised this first several years ago whilst starting to put together my DIE's (the Disease-Inducing-Effects of Pharmaceutical Drugs and Vaccines) e-book. Each page of this book focuses on an illness or disease in order to see whether conventional medicial drugs and vaccine can cause it. In doing so I found that conventional medicine routinely denies that their drugs and vaccines cause all kinds of illnesses. 

Indeed, time and time again, conventional medicine states that "there is no known cause".

At one level, perhaps, this is understandable ignorance. What car mechanic, for instance, would want to admit that your car was not working because a previous repair he had done had caused the problem?

But if the mechanic ignored the fact that his/her previous fault was causing the current problem, would he be able to fix the problem? It is unlikely.

But this is what conventional medicine does all the time. In writing each separate page of my DIE's e-book I used the UK's NHS website to see how they described the cause of serious illnesses and diseases. In some cases what they say is that "there is no known cause". In others they describe what is happening, what is going wrong within the body - and mistakenly present this as a cause. Here are some examples of both - all relating to illness that are running at unprecedented levels.

ALLERGY (cause not known)

          "Allergies occur when the body's immune system reacts to a particular substance as though it's harmful. It's not clear why this happens, but most people affected have a family history of allergies or have closely related conditions, such as asthma or eczema. The number of people with allergies is increasing every year. The reasons for this are not understood, but one of the main theories is it's the result of living in a cleaner, germ-free environment, which reduces the number of germs our immune system has to deal with. It's thought this may cause it to overreact when it comes into contact with harmless substances."

ALZHEIMER'S DISEASE (mainly description)

          "Alzheimer's disease is thought to be caused by the abnormal build-up of proteins in and around brain cells..... Although it's not known exactly what causes this process to begin, scientists now know that it begins many years before symptoms appear. As brain cells become affected, there's also a decrease in chemical messengers (called neurotransmitters) involved in sending messages, or signals, between brain cells. Levels of one neurotransmitter, acetylcholine, are particularly low in the brains of people with Alzheimer's disease. Over time, different areas of the brain shrink. The first areas usually affected are responsible for memories.

RHEUMATOID ARTHRITIS (cause not known)

          "Rheumatoid arthritis is an autoimmune condition, which means it's caused by the immune system attacking healthy body tissue. However, it's not yet known what triggers this.

OSTEOARTHRITIS (mainly description)

           "As part of normal life, your joints are exposed to a constant low level of damage. In most cases, your body repairs the damage itself and you do not experience any symptoms. But in osteoarthritis, the protective cartilage on the ends of your bones breaks down, causing pain, swelling and problems moving the joint. Bony growths can develop, and the area can become red and swollen.
The exact cause is not known...."

ASTHMA (cause not known)
          "The exact cause of asthma is unknown.People with asthma have swollen (inflamed) and "sensitive" airways that become narrow and clogged with sticky mucus in response to certain triggers. Genetics, pollution and modern hygiene standards have been suggested as causes, but there's not currently enough evidence to know if any of these do cause asthma.

AUTISM (cause not known, and also denial)
          "It's not clear what causes autism. Nobody knows what causes autism, or if it has a cause.
It can affect people in the same family. So it may sometimes be passed on to a child by their parents."

However, most unusually, conventional medicine knows what does NOT cause autism, including vaccines!

ATTENTION DEFICIT HYPERACTIVITY DISORDER - ADHD (cause not known)
          "The exact cause of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is not fully understood, although a combination of factors is thought to be responsible.

CANCER (description, no cause discussed)

          "Cancer is a condition where cells in a specific part of the body grow and reproduce uncontrollably. The cancerous cells can invade and destroy surrounding healthy tissue, including organs."

CHRONIC FATIGUE & ME (cause not known)

          "It's not known what causes CFS/ME, but there are a number of theories – for example, it may be triggered by an infection, or certain factors could make you more likely to develop the illness.

DIABETES (entirely description)

          "The amount of sugar in the blood is controlled by a hormone called insulin, which is produced by the pancreas (a gland behind the stomach).

Pharmaceutical drugs known to cause Diabetes.

IRRITABLE BOWEL (cause not known)

          "The exact cause is unknown – it's been linked to things like food passing through your gut too quickly or too slowly, oversensitive nerves in your gut, stress and a family history of IBS.

CROHN'S DISEASE (cause not known)

          "The exact cause of Crohn's disease is unknown."

Pharmaceutical drugs known to cause Crohn's Disease

MULTIPLE SCLEROSIS (cause not known)

          "Exactly why someone develops multiple sclerosis (MS) isn't known. It's not caused by anything you have done and it's not clear whether it can be prevented.

Pharmaceutical drugs known to cause MS.

I could go on with a much larger list of illnesses, but the ones mentioned have become some of the most serious throughout the developed world, running at epidemic levels, and still on the increase.

What this clearly demonstrates is that the mechanic-doctor does not know what is causing these epidemic levels of disease, instead doctors are myopically working in the dark, either unable or unwilling to accept that the pharmaceutical drugs (s)he is using are (at the very least) an important contributory factor to all these diseases.

So does conventional medicine have any effective, of safe treatment for these epidemic illnesses?

The answer, from a previous blog, 'How effective is conventional medicine', again using evidence from the UK's NHS website, is clear that it does not

And part of the reason for this is that conventional medicine cannot bring itself to admit that the cause of most of these serious illnesses is iatrogenic - doctor induced.

And that conventional medicine ignores one effective treatment for most, if not all disease, is to stop giving harmful pharmaceutical drugs and vaccines to patients!

New Pharmaceutical Drugs? New Medical Breakthroughs? New 'Wonder' Drugs? New Miracles treatments? No Benefits

• We are constantly being told by doctors and the mainstream media about new medical breakthroughs, new 'wonder' drugs, new miracles cures, that are going to be 'game changers' in the treatment of disease.

• Yet year by year we are getting sicker. Chronic diseases (allergy, arthritis, autism, cancer, dementia, diabetes, et al) is now running at epidemic levels, and increasing, and conventional medicine says that it does not know what is causing them. Nor do they have any treatment capable of treating them successfully.

So perhaps a new study from Germany can square these two remarkably conflicting health facts. This is how the Study Finds (research in a nutshell) describes the outcome of the research.


               "There seems to be a new drug to treat anything and everything these days, but are these medications as effective as they claim to be? A new study has concluded that the answer to that question is no. Furthermore, researchers say that international drug development processes, standards, and policies are fundamentally broken and must be reformed."

The study was undertaken at the German Institute for Quality and Efficiency in Health Care. It found that more than half of new drugs introduced to the German healthcare system have shown absolutely no added benefit. The researchers examined 216 drugs that between 2011 and 2017 had passed regulatory approval, and the European Medicines Agency had further approved for widespread use in Europe.
               "... only a quarter of those drugs showed any significant medical added benefit, and 16% showed even a minor added benefit, and a whopping 58% of studied drugs showed no benefit at all beyond 'standard patient care".

These are, of course, the same pharmaceutical drugs that our mainstream media are always telling us about - the one's that are going to be 'medical breakthroughs', 'wonder drugs', miracle cures', and similar propaganda.

Of course, there has been no mention of this study in the mainstream media. Or by Government. Or by National Health Services throughout the world? Or from our doctors?

But be assured, this is not fake news. The British Medical Journal (BMJ) has mentioned the study in its article "New drugs: where did we go wrong and what can we do better?" This is what it said about the study.

               "More than half of new drugs entering the German healthcare system have not been shown to add benefit" suggesting that the researchers said that international drug development processes and policies are responsible "and must be reformed". It commented further.

               "Medicines regulators around the world are pursuing a strategy aimed at accelerating the development and approval of drugs. These approaches are based on the assumption that faster access to new drugs benefits patients. The rhetoric of novelty and innovation creates an assumption that new products are better than existing ones. But although gaps in the therapeutic armamentarium undoubtedly exist, research covering drug approvals since the 1970s suggests only a limited number of new drugs provide real advances over existing drugs. Most studies put the proportion of true innovation at under 15%, with no clear improvement over time."

So the epidemics of chronic disease will continue. Even if we ignore the fact that pharmaceutical drugs and vaccines are causing these epidemics, it seems clear that conventional medicine has no means of combating them!

• PHARMACEUTICAL DRUGS ARE NOT ONLY UNSAFE, DANGEROUS.
• NOT ONLY HAVE PHARMACEUTICAL DRUGS BEEN BANNED IN THE PAST BEFORE THEY WERE EITHER DANGEROUS OR USELESS.
• EVEN THE NEW DRUGS COMING ON TO THE MARKET ARE NO BETTER.

Conventional medicine is failing, and failing badly. But let me add one more recent news story, courtesy of BBC News, concerning the cost of these wonderful new pharmaceutical drugs. The article was entitled "Cystic fibrosis drugs rejected for use by NHS in Scotland". The BBC, as per usual, described the drugs, Oekambi and Symkevi, as "life changing" - so perhaps they have not read the German study, or have decided not to mention it!

These drugs cost about £1,000 per patient per year.

Rather a high price, don't you think, for drugs that are both dangerous, and of limited (if any) value!

Still, the drugs industry is a business, and this is how they make a living.

Selling expensive, useless and dangerous drugs.
