Natural laxative foods

Dependent on medicine

Though many would argue the validity of the followingstatement, the fact is that, due to extremelymedicine-oriented cultures we live in today, we have increasingly becomedependent on it, maybe even too dependent. One of the direct consequences isthat we have ceased to, not only to “consult” our bodies, but also to payingattention to what they signal us completely. What people today tend to do is relyunquestionably in the judgment of the doctors and are therefore prepared togive quite a lot of money for just one minor check up that ends up in doctorprescribing a single medication that is supposedly going to cure their illnessimmediately. But instead of curing, it actually does little or nothing to aid theperson. This also goes for the proper digestion, and the related overallhealth.

Just medicine or is there something else?

This is not to say that medicine is completely futile anddoes not give any results of relief, but in case a person seeks to get rid oftroubles for good and not suffer over and over again, then one should look upfor a solution some place else. As a matter of fact, quite a number of themedications available only mask the manifestations, but fail to properly addressthe health problem in question. On the other hand, there is also quite a numberof physicians who seldom invest proper amount of time and effort intodiscovering, diagnosing and ultimately treating a certain condition. In mostcases, the best treatment they give you is the one based on a particularmedication that has the ability to ward off the condition for a specificperiod of time, which doctors often treat as already cured. But that isunfortunately not the case, since those conditions do return and on a regularbasis as well.
