There is No "Cure"

We've all heard of silly laws. In Louisiana it's illegal to gargle in public places, and in Atlanta it's against the law to tie a giraffe to a telephone pole or street lamp. There's also a law that states that the only thing that's allowed to be called a "cure" is a pharmaceutical drug. The positive side of this is that people who lack responsibility can't loosely throw that term around just for the purpose of selling their product and making money. The negative side of this law is that the "cure" does actually exist, and it's called "nutrition", "positive attitude", "placebo effect", "energy", etc.

Everybody knows that prunes, or prune juice, is a "cure" for constipation, but if a company made the illegal claim that their product did that, the FDA would go storming in, that product would be taken off the market immediately, and the company would be taken to court. This doesn't particularly make sense, but that's how it is. This is a major flaw in our system, and because of this, the trillion dollar pharmaceutical industry continues to make massive amounts of money while neverendingly "searching for a cure". Sometimes the ones we think are responsible, lack responsibility, and sometimes we follow the advice of those who we think know the truth, when in actuality they don't know the truth. Most doctors know very little about nutrition because they're not trained in it. Doctors go to medical school, not nutrition school. If people want medical advice, they go to a doctor. If people want nutritional advice, they go to a nutritionist, naturalpath, or holistic practitioner. Drugs have their place, but certainly not to the degree and extent that they are used today. So legally there is no "cure" for many of our diseases, but illegally, there is. It's all so ridiculously silly!
