What if the pharmaceutical industry could no longer get patents on drugs?

Is it bad that only pharmaceuticals that will bring in large profits get R&D?

They would use false advertising to sell you their poisons anyway. If people had to pay out of pocket for this garbage, they would quit buying this expensive poison. No government subsidies.

From the article: “Allo-pathy”: Come to Me for One Disease, I'll Give You Another?

The term “allopathy” was coined by Hahnemann, the founder of homeopathy, who used the term to criticize the prevailing medical practices of his time, which he believed treated disease by inducing effects opposite to the symptoms rather than addressing the underlying causes. Derived from the Greek words "allos" (other) and "pathos" (suffering or disease), allopathy was meant to contrast with homeopathy, which relied on the principle of "like cures like."

It takes exponentially more energy to cover for a lie than it does to tell the truth. The bigger the lie, the more astronomical the amount energy is required to sustain it. From the start of “allopathy”, it’s been bought and paid for lies all the way down:

Try Vaccination — It never will hurt you,

For Vaccination has this one great virtue:

Should it injure or kill you whenever you receive it,

We all stand prepared to refuse to believe it. —From a circular signed "The Doctors", 1876

Ditch both. Vaccination meets the etymological definition of homeopathy.

Dear Grace,

My homeopath was never able to end my osteoarthritis. I still have the pills he sold me to do that. I asked him to ask the homeopath who trained him what he would suggest to my homeopath, but he never did. So do you know how I would cure osteoarthritis in my left knee joint? If you do, please contact me at leanybean@protonmail.com

God bless,

Arlene Johnson

A holistic therapist advised me to get hyaluronic acid so I did. But it made the formerly slight discomfort unbearable. I literally had to hold my hand underneath my knee to rise out of a chair. I took it for 20 days trying to achieve what she said it would achieve, but then stopped. So I'm hesitant to try what you recommend. Please don't be offended. I know you mean well.

My homeopath is in Bath, England just so you know. I somewhat consider that to be Europe.

A doctor in New Jersey who may be a homeopath, suggested Capsaicin cream or DMSO. I tried to order the Capsaicin cream, but the eBay supplier didn't have that product. I can't seem to find it anywhere. I'm waiting other back from the New Jersey doctor regarding if he feels that the DMSO would solve this problem.

God bless,

Arlene

All I know is that our approved 50 billion in fraud fines and leader in cause of death Big Pharma "medicine" killed my Dad Wife and Best friend! (Along with 12.5. to 40 million others in just the last 50 years!) IF? you can believe the Johns Hopkins [low-ball] 12.5 mill. iatrogenic study or Dr. Nulls's well cited, 40 mil. kill book, Death By Medicine? Talk about Quacks and Snake oil "medicine" what about our multi kill/ Gain of Function/ bio-warfare and quack/ fraudulent Coved testing and treatment? People should have been put to death for that scam! BUT when you're like big, Nazi Bayer IG Farben you can kill millions and get away with it! Because "Death is the wages of sin, Vs. the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord! [Romans 6:23]

Is DMSO legit, safe or snake oil? I use homoeopathy but am unsure as to whether the effects are placebo or due to the medicine. It isn't an energy medicine, but what is the mechanism of action, especially at high dilutions when there are no molecules of the substance in the remedy? Don't know. Hahnemann formulated the system pre knowledge of genetics and immunology.

I will be writing a literature review of the research into DMSO next year. I have deliberately not read any articles about it (such as the Midwestern doctor) to avoid unconsciously biasing myself.

Good idea to do independent research first.

"Enormous financial burden on healthcare systems"? Very few of these remedies are typically prescribed for trauma, so it should be "on patients." Prohibit medical insurance for anything other than trauma, and just possibly catastrophic conditions like cancer, as odious wagering!

The worst part about allopathic medicine is when it married up with big pharma and doctors went from being humble healers to money mongers. I don't know how that transition happened and exactly when but doctors started becoming 'high status rich people' and that just doesn't jive with being an honest healer.

There are indeed good an honest allopathic doctors but they get canceled or even fired for voicing genuine concerns that go against the mainstream of fellow doctor...same goes for scientists. If scientists go against the grain with solid proofs, the science community blacklists them and they no longer get grants for their work. Our medical and science system needs a massive overhaul.

The last stop on the road to perdition is using AI to completely fake your research, and before long noone can trust anything anywhere.

The age of elixirs and snake oil salesman is back.

Two names are missing from your historical review: Flexner and Rockefeller. Together with the AMA, they were critical in shaping modern allopathic medicine.

I'm not sure you intended to slur homeopathy as quackery here, but this passage could be interpreted that way: "Under his [Simmons'] leadership, the AMA advanced scientific medicine, but Simmons’ background underscored the blurred lines between legitimate practice and quackery during this transitional period."

Homeopathy has a distinguished history of successfully treating infectious diseases, such as the Spanish Flu. Check out this article posted today on Dr. Nass' stack by the eminent homeopath, Dana Ullman: https://homeopathic.com/a-homeopathic-perspective-on-infectious-disease-effective-alternatives-to-antibiotics/

It's possible that the AMA and BMA were conceived as a control mechanism for allopathic doctors.

Excellent article Dr Jack.

You've covered a lot of what I've discovered and documented over the past few years.

This article has inspired another data point on my timeline.

https://totalityofevidence.com/timeline/standardised-dosage-tabloid-lays-foundation-for-modern-pharmacuitical-industry/

You even touched on homeopathy, which I hope MAHA bring back to the table.

https://totalityofevidence.com/hidden-knowledge/

"By tracing these issues back to their historical roots, we can better understand the systemic forces that continue to shape healthcare today."

I Totallly agree with you.
