Health Care , why are there no new cures?

2009 May 22

I have just lost an Uncle to Chemo therapy, it killed the cancer but also killed his immunity. Thankfully the tumors shrunk but, three days later he contracted pneumonia and suffocated. At least the doctors can say he didn’t die of cancer on their watch. This somehow is stupid, the only temporary cure for advanced cancer kills you. That brings me to why there are few cures in recent history. Just a side note there is a blood test which is 95% accurate at detecting cancer early. Why doesn’t everyone over thirty get tested twice a year? I have no answer. Why is it not common knowledge at your doctors finger tips? Again I have no answer; just paranoid delusions and conspiracy theories.
I’ve been interested in optimum health and youth extension for over 30 years. I was just wondering why the hell there have been few new cures for deadly or debilitating diseases over last 20 years? No cure for cancer, Alzheimer’s, heart disease , MD, MS, and the list goes on and on. There is one simple explanation ; the healthcare industry biggest incentive is managing disease ; any pill or therapy you can take over and over again. The major reason is the pharmaceuticals companies must pay unbelievable money to pass the FDA tests and get approval. These tests and studies put any cure out of reach for the average person. For example, if the money for approval and research is in the tens or hundreds of millions, one time cure can’t recoup that money. So why would they look for a cure. A cure is a one time thing ,no residuals ,bad business. It actually hurts the big pharma companies to cure you ; it is much more profitable to keep you low grade sick for as long as possible. In the end killing you slowly. whether it is cancer or the flu, a cure isn’t cost effective for the medical industry. So what do you get- allergy pills, bladder leak pills, erection pills; blood pressure pills- they don’t cure you but ,they keep you coming back for more, for ever. That is where the profit is, treating symptoms ,not cures.
Ever wonder why there are nonprofits for every disease but, they seldom find a cure .. Maybe I am just cynical or jaded but there’s never a cure for their cause of choice. Why you ask? Because if they find a cure, they meaning the nonprofits, they are out of business. So the majority of money goes to helping the already sick suffer less. The nonprofits are very noble and very necessary but again, no incentive for a cure.
So what can a person do , simple cure aging .Think about this, if all the money spent on erection pills was spent on slowing aging and extending youth we would have it under controll 20 years ago.(But that is fodder for another blog) Why has there been very little money spent on curing and preventing aging. I HAVE THE ANSWER: If you are not sick then you don’t go to the doctor. If you don’t go to the doctor then you don’t buy pills. Little money in cures, even through it’s the right thing to do, just treatments. In the end it is up to the individual the find information to solve their health problems. That’s where I can help. I will do my best to get relevant information to you about staying young longer. Because we are all going to die someday of something. So, why die of old age diseases . Life would be a hell of lot better and more productive if you have the energy of a teenager for many more years then we have now. Think about it . Remember what it was like? Ahh, to be young again. If you are older let me know if you agree, if not you don’t count yet. Wait a few years , you’ll be on my side. Normally my blogs are funny but,the health care systems treament of my uncle has got me down.
