When you find yourself in a hole — STOP DIGGING!

I’d heard somewhere that cancer requires an acidic environment to survive. Can’t remember where though.

Oh, you remember. Thanks Jeffrey.
All diseases thrive on acidic environment.
Every diseased person is acidic. (Not to say that every acidic person is necessarily diseased).
ALKALINE bodies don’t allow diseases to live & thrive. Balanced pH!

The same with soil. Almost all weeds require the soil to be acidic, or they won’t grow. The problem many farmers have is they put a chemical poison onto the soil for a quick fix of the weeds, but they can still regrow later, and now you have poisoned soil that harms good plants. Changing the pH balance naturally kills weeds, requiring fewer chemicals which can be ingested by humans later. Learned that from someone who did organic vegetables for a living.

We had effective natural cures until the globalist Rockefellers (yes there were globalists in the late 1800's) destroyed natural medicine, took over medical schools to push pharmaceuticals, which by the way caused an increase in cancers. So benevolent globalists such as they were, they quietly founded the American Cancer Society.
There are people who deserve hatred and loathing.

You, my friend, have a complete understanding of reality.

Sharps45 thinks you’ve got it wrong

Somehow going back to the medical treatments from the time of 40 year life spans seems counterintuitive

Life expectancy was lower due to high infant mortality and adolescent deaths, skewing the average. Now we can save nearly every premature baby. Statistical data shows similar age motality for those 70+.

I concur. Two of my cousins in the late 70’s or early 80’s were born pre-viable and died because the technology hadn’t come to save them. Now we have medical advances that would have kept them alive in an incubator of an ICU for a while but they likely could survive.

I've got a guy at work who's psa reading is double what is considered problematic, yet he tries to find a burl of wood from an aspen tree that he can boil down into a tea that will fix his prostate. This is what I was talking about

I can’t speak to that. But… people laugh at the Amish. Yet they are some of the healthiest people around.
Amish have gotten No covid vaccines, and no covid deaths, no vaccine injuries.
They’re unvaxxed entirely, & yet NO AUTISM, no polio, no blah blah blah.

Old-world treatments & cures are making a comeback. Because they work. Herbs, weeds, flowers, & yes, even pine needles have curable powers.
Allopathic medicine will tell you there are no cures. What they THINK, but don’t say:
There’s NO MONEY in Cures. :

If a disease can be cured the money to treat it stops.

A short statement, that blows right by a lot of the causative factors that are integral to the big picture.

We didn’t just plop down in an environment that had sewers & sanitation, clean water, & such.
Germs, bacteria, pathogens were not even a consideration, in people’s lives —let alone, in medical settings.
OSHA wasn’t checking up on safety practices of earlier times.
Many factors must be considered before jumping to the conclusion that Medical Treatments is wholly responsible for longer lives.

Improvements in HYGIENE; SANITATION; CLEAN WATER; FOOD QUALITY/NUTRITION; etc were the main advances of life expectancy. Then you can add in Safety improvements. Mechanical advancements to reduce the physical wear & tear on the body.
Automation takes the workload off of the human. Many pieces to this puzzle.

But the main thrust of the typical (your) paradigm is, DRUGS, CHEMICALS, VACCINES are the saving grace of mankind.

—I beg to differ—

There is a whole industry —call it: marketing advertising psychology manipulation storytelling brainwashing psyop— that convinces people that it’s all about drugs chemicals vaccines.
THAT is really all about TOXINS; POISONS; MONEY; CAUSING DISEASE; MAKING —& KEEPING— PEOPLE SICK; & MORE MONEY.

You would do well by learning what SevenHeart is saying — the guy’s post that you’re commenting to. You don’t know what you don’t know.

Penicillin wasn't discovered until around 1928 if memory serves, and didn't come into commercial scale use until WWII. Blood transfusions were about concurrent.
There have been good medical discoveries, then there have been profitable pharmaceutical discoveries. For example, statins control cholesterol but elevate blood sugar readings, leading to more prescriptions for diabetic treatments which cause other adverse side effects that require more medication to treat. Cholesterol number thresholds have been dropped to a point where numbers that were considered healthy are now medicated, starting the A1C crisis much sooner. If it's all about selling more products, it's probabably got nothing to do with your health.

People think it’s PROGRESS, to give their health over to Scientists & drug companies.
Not you. Not me!

Natural cures help but opting for surgery to cut it out is good too. About the only thing good about modern medicine is surgery.

I think so too. But a strange thing I’ve heard from different sources: cutting open the body & cutting out the C, actually causes a cascading effect. They say that more tumors start popping up.
Beats me. I just know that chemo & radiation are the worst things to do.
