Dr. Ruth Heidrich (Senior Fitness) discussed doing research on her cancer, and on the treatments available. She started getting angry. Why did she have to discover all this health information for herself? Dr. David Servan-Schreiber (Anticancer, A New Way of Life) said the same thing after his cancer returned. They both echo my feelings. Why is this information not out there for the general public? If the public knew they could cure their diabetes mellitus or heart disease or prevent cancer with this diet and exercise, wouldn't most people try it? I think they would. They should at least be given the choice.
She recommends questioning authority, questioning assumptions, and being a critical thinker throughout your life. It is difficult to think and act for yourself, but you are in a race for your life which started on the day you were born. 74 trillion cells in your body are depending on you to get it right. Educate yourself and act.
