In this episode we all all about modern medicine, but mostly we discuss some of the major problems with it that should concern us and make us think twice before relying on medicine to solve our problems. Topics include:

• The business of modern medicine. Why modern medicine will probably never cure you of what ails you.
• I give an example of a way in which many modern pharmaceutical companies operate.
• I talk about the way medicine is practiced these days and how critical concepts and ideas are overlooked as a matter of standards.
• I talk about the slow pace in which modern medicine adapts to the latest science.
• Then we jump into medications and the way modern medicine abuses the use of medicine. I explain a common way in which a minor issue becomes a dependency on multiple prescriptions with no end in sight. 
• I go into the misuse and abuse of antibiotics and how there are many infections showing up that are resistant to antibiotics.
• And that segues into my final gripe with modern medicine, which is the negligent attitude towards side effects. So many medicines we take have serious side effects and we just act like it isn't a big issue. Meanwhile some of these side effects are so serious they require additional medicine to treat.
• I offer my thoughts on a wholesome approach to health, which is based around diet, exercise, sleep, and stress management. I put the onus on you to take responsibility for your own health and to stop relying on doctors to solve your problems.
• And in this week's Call-to-Action we all evaluate any medicines we take, whether prescribed or over the counter. We ask ourselves if we really need to be taking it and if there's lifestyle changes we can make to solve our problem instead. We ask ourselves how many of these medicines are for life with no finish line? And we ask ourselves if this is what we want for ourselves?
