"The Mistreatment of Acute Disease"

The events of the last year or so have clearly shown that our health care system is dysfunctional, and likely creating even more problems.  One example is the overly aggressive treatment of acute illnesses.  Dr. Thomas Cowan is one of the few medical doctors who have realized that modern medicine, like most of our health care system, is not designed to make people healthier.  The country that spends the most on health care is also arguably the unhealthiest.  I read his book, entitled "Vaccines, Autoimmunity, and the Changing Nature of Childhood Illness,"  while my body was detoxing.  Most doctors would have called it the flu or covid.  I was due for a good detox, as I hadn't had a prolonged fever in about 10 years.  This book made what I was experiencing make even more sense and also made me appreciate that I haven't had any vaccines or taken any medication in over 20 years.  The wisdom of our innate intelligence is far superior to anything that is designed in a lab or a board room.

 According to Dr Cowan, on page 21, "Whatever it was needed to be flushed out of the body.  The "flushing" is what we today call "acute illness."  We (modern doctors), however, have forgotten (or never learned) that acute disease - disease that is typically self-limiting and usually accompanied by fever, rash, and pus - is the primary way the body rids itself of unwanted toxins or other substances.... The mistreatment of acute disease is a fundamental mechanism for chronic disease.  In order for a disease to become chronic, there needs to be an insult, often a toxic exposure, and then a suppression of the body's attempt to detoxify."  We have all recently seen the mistreatment of acute disease on a global scale, fueling the irrational fear of millions of people, and creating distrust of our body's innate ability to keep us safe and well.  It is very sad to see, because millions more will likely suffer needlessly...
