Doctors recently saved my life.
Yet they seem to think every little problem can be dealt with using pills. It seems overkill. Side effects suck. I need to start researching all my meds and then ask if some are [i]really[/i] needed. With some, I don't know who in the hospital prescribed them or why. My primary care physician is new.
Recently, she said I had a vitamin deficiency, so she said I should take a supplement. But can't I eat something? I looked at my cereal and a few have 100% daily value per serving. Can't I just eat cereal?

@JoyfulSilence it's a [b]big[/b] danger of civilization.
The pharmaceutical industry and science is trying to expand their effectiveness and throwing all sorts of chemicals and processes at us. Only some are necessary, many are pushed forward for profit and ego.
In the process we are losing the natural healing power of our body and the medicinal benefits of natural foods.

They pass you around to their golfing buddies. It is good to find an honest doctor.
