As a biologist and scientist myself, I was already aware of many of the issues addressed in this book. Exhaustively researched, this expose of the manner in which the medical establishment eliminates competition and prevents the patient from having any control over their own health and/or the manner in which they may choose to treat a medical condition should be brought to the attention of every citizen. Multiple studies have examined how diet and simple herbal alternatives possibly in conjunction with other alternative therapies such as massage have been able to successfully treat and even cure serious medical conditions where standard medicine has either proven to have been ineffective or more life-threatening than the initial condition, yet the medical community scoffs at such "unscientific" methods, or has them labeled dangerous an acts to make such treatments illegal. The alternative treatment arena appears to be gaining momentum; so, the medical community will continue to try to have these methods outlawed. Hopefully, the people will prevail, as they did in preventing vitamins an herbs from being controlled as drugs. This book is a map to aid us in this fight.

This is a MUST read for all Americans!!! Ergode Books was influential in obtaining a copy that I absolutely had to have based on a recent horrible experience at a hospital. People need to be fully informed about the inner workings of our medical system. Ergode Books assistance in getting this book helped me understand what really happened to me and how to prevent it in the future.

A must read for those who search for the truth. The following excerpt is a "teaser"... "Death by Modern Medicine" proves that the number one cause of death in North America is being lied about and deliberately concealed by our government corporations and the allopathic investment industry private corporations.
The evidence contained in the book proves that in North America, the equivalent of approximately 7 jumbo jets per day, full of passengers are crashing (over 2000 people per day) and in many cases needlessly dying!
"Death by Modern Medicine" goes beyond the statistics of deaths due to drugs to how the medical monopoly that created the system in the first place is allowed to control health care. A tale of propaganda, health care bureaucracy, the business of cancer, our own personal addiction to sugar and drugs and the denial we all harbor.
Death by Modern Medicine, winner of the OUTSTANDING HEALTH BOOK OF THE YEAR AWARD 2006, is a blockbuster book that will bust the blockbuster drugs that have become the hallmark of modern medicine. It contains an unprecedented three forewords by Dr. Abram Hoffer, the father of orthomolecular medicine, Dr. Joseph Mercola, well known for his top-rated website mercola. com, and Dr. Julian Whitaker author of the famous health newsletter Health and Healing. Matrix Verite Publishing

UP FRONT - This is a "long" review - but because of the importance of this issue, and because I have enormous respect for this brave, highly credentialed and caring "crusader" who gives us the real TRUTH behind today's health (sickness) care system - I felt compelled to write an in depth review.
Carolyn Dean, MD, ND ('The Doctor of The Future') - is a medical doctor, naturopath, acupuncturist, homeopath, herbalist, and certified clinical nutritionist, and a regular guest on radio and television programs. She is also a powerful health activist, fighting for our collective health freedom. She has been in the forefront of the natural medicine revolution for over 30 years.
She is the author / co-author of 22 health books (print and eBooks) including: "The Magnesium Miracle" - "IBS for Dummies" - "IBS Cookbook for Dummies" - "The Yeast Connection and Women's Health" - "Future Health Now Encyclopedia" - "Everything Alzheimers" - "Hormone Balance"
Her "DEATH BY MODERN MEDICINE" was the winner of the OUTSTANDING HEALTH BOOK OF THE YEAR AWARD, 2006, and contains [an unprecedented] three forewords - by Dr. Abram Hoffer, the father of orthomolecular medicine - by Dr. Joseph Mercola, well known for his top-rated website Mercola.com - and by Dr. Julian Whitake,r author of the famous health newsletter, "Health and Healing".
A CONNECTION - As it turns out, she and I happened to attend the same university (Dalhousie, in Halifax, NS) and she practiced (natural) medicine in Toronto, Ontario, where my wife and I currently live. I have subscribed to her excellent eNewsletter for some time (at DrCarolynDean.com) - so all in all, I feel we're a little bit "connected":>)
As a Financial Advisor and a Business Consultant to health professionals myself, I believe that every dedicated WELLNESS PRACTITIONER should read (study!) this masterpiece. Sadly, I believe everyone living in North America should be awakened to its truths.
My wife (who is an RN) and I are both passionate about our health - especially about "prevention", "nutrition" and "holistic healing". I devoured Dr. Dean's book in one sitting (although it alarmed me somewhat, it captured my attention - I couldn't put it down!). I like her ability to talk sense and science - and her absolute commitment to heart-centered "wellness care" -vs- "business-as-usual sickness care".
Her book is well researched, well documented and well written.
Here is just one (troublesome) excerpt from her book...
--------------------------------------
From Her Book ... "Tim Bolen, an outspoken critic of North American medicine, and advocate for natural medicine, calls modern health care "FIVE MINUTE MEDICINE", which describes the reality of conventional health care. He says - "A patient waits two months for an appointment to see a doctor -- waits an hour in a waiting room -- then twenty minutes in an examining room, to consult with a doctor -- who then spends five (5) minutes listening to his/her problems -- then, takes one (1) minute writing out three new prescriptions for drugs -- whose co-pay at the pharmacy is equivalent to the price of groceries for two senior citizens for a whole week!"
---------------------------------------
TRUTH - The general public simply doesn't realize there is an ongoing WAR for the control of our bodies. Allopathic medicine and the pharmaceutical industry seem to be demanding a monopoly on treating disease, and will stop at nothing to achieve that end. According to her book, in essence, the "medical system" has not only lost its way, but has become the leading cause of DEATH and injury in North America (with all the detailed statistics to back this up)!
As both a doctor with high integrity and a brilliant, compassionate researcher, she brought together in her book, overwhelming proof ("evidence") that modern medicine has become, in its standard version, a DEATH ENGINE - not a profession dedicated to healing the sick! What makes this book so astonishing is that its sources all come from mainstream medical research. Her book is meant to outrage, warn, and light a fire under a citizenry she hopes will demand reform.
Dr. Dean's book is divided into chapters that trace death for the patient - by doctors - by drug companies - by the healthcare bureaucracy - by the media - by the propaganda machine serving interests unrelated to the patientfs needs - by drugs and unnecessary medical procedures - by tainted science - by the cancer establishment - by environmental chemicals & toxic foods (especially refined sugar) - by addictions - by mechanisms of denial, and by lifestyle choices that mostly aren't choices, but based on wholesale corporate fraud.
-- "A remarkably courageous, insightful, stirring and passionately written expose of the deadly truths behind the facade of modern medicine, this work will set the standard for lucid, credible, and accurate understanding in defense of rational, logical, natural healing paradigm for generations to come". (James Bowman MD, DC, ND)
Yes - I see this as is a formidable book - an important 'expose' - a book that will shake the monopolistic roots of modern medicine.
This book deserves a (( 10 )) Star Rating in my opinion - thank you Dr. Dean!
Our FUTURE WELL-BEING? - I'd like to share some strictly 'personal' thoughts here...
Not wanting to be associated with predictions of "doom & gloom", I'd like to offer a perspective that CHANGE - while individually painful at times - is imperative when considering the "greater good" of our future wellness.
The BAD NEWS is - the current paradigm, which views HEALTH as "freedom from disease symptoms" (treated by drugs, radiation and surgery), is a fundamental flaw of conventional medicine. This disease-based paradigm is what's being taught in medical schools everywhere. It's the prevailing belief system of the last century. We should "not" believe that disease is normal, or that "drugs" can cure disease (this cultural belief system was created, and paid for, by the pharmaceutical industry - to the tune of tens of billions of dollars a year!)
Medical doctors are licensed and regulated by their own medical boards. Increasingly, these boards are populated with representatives of the drug industry, health insurance industry, and doctors who are paid "advisors" for pharmaceutical companies. Insidious and unrelenting media manipulation has molded the public belief system and created this cultural conditioning that is precisely opposite of the truth => which is that our body is designed to stay healthy; to maintain homeostasis and always seek to regain balance.
The GOOD NEWS is this: To become totally healthy - to effectively change the current health care system as it now exists - to have a greater sense of participation in evaluating the "options" and benefits of care available to us - we, as nations of people, must examine and revise some of our CORE BELIEFS about "health" itself => first, accepting that "we" are primarily responsible for our OWN health.
It is critical for us to change our thinking, and realize that it's perfectly "normal" to be healthy! Our lifestyle choices should be aimed at living up to our potential - to optimize our health - rather than trying to "run from inevitable disease".
OPTIMAL HEALTH - Our state of health is determined mainly by how we eat, move, and think! The conscious pursuit of the highest level of functioning and balance of the physical, environmental, mental, emotional, social and spiritual aspects of human experience, will result in a dynamic state of "being fully alive". This creates a condition of well-being regardless of the presence of, or absence of, disease or other life challenges.
HEALING POWER - The human body has remarkable power to heal itself ... "We doctors do nothing. We only help and encourage the doctor within. We are at our best when we give the doctor who resides within each patient a chance to go to work. (Dr. Albert Schweitzer). Holistic wellness providers and natural healers already understand the magnificance of this.
BETTER INFORMED - Bottom line, I believe that as consumers, who have greater access to information, and who have become better educated - that our needs and values ARE changing for the better. More than ever, we want (are demanding!) more health freedom - more involvement and "control" over our own health care - more safe "options." Thankfully, we are beginning to take a greater "preventive, natural and holistic" approach to achieving our wellness (including lifestyle measures such as diet, nutrition, rest, exercise, stress management, supplementation and emotional well-being).
INTEGRATED MEDICINE - Blending two completely different health care systems (allopathic and alternative) into a NEW health and wellness model - and providing opportunities for each system to complement the other, and to flourish in harmony - with active "patient" participation, as valued partners -- "this" ought to become the new GOAL for us all.
We're already beginning to witness a shift in this direction, which is encouraging. But such a massive objective is not without many heavy challenges ahead - there's still a large distance to go in this journey.
We need to "bridge" that gap ASAP.
