The Real History of Medicine. Title for this show: Best model for your medicine, which one and why? FDA Approval-Based Medicine: The Worst Model for Medicine. Only recently in medical history we’ve been  locked into this drug-pharmaceutical-based model for health care. And it s probably medical history’s worst model. We should have an entirely separate agency for the evaluation and approval of natural, non-patentable products. The Germans have one: German Commission E. Natural Products Grandfathered into Our FDA-Approval-Based Health Care Often Discovered Serendipitously. A few examples inclde include penicillin, aspirin, coumadin and EDTA. Another is nattokinase, a possibly safer alternative to coumadin. Disease Control Does Not Mean Health Promotion. Drugs control various diseases, but they generally only do so by blocking chemical receptors on our cells or inhibit our enzymes. Importance of Vitamins as Co-Factors in Enzymes. The function of the B-vitamins and many minerals is to serve as ‘co-factors’ inside the enzymes for their proper function for optimal health. Importance of Adaptogens. These are well documented herbs that increase our resistance to stress, fatigue and anxiety. Examples: ginseng, ashwagandha, cordyceps and a number of mushrooms. We’ll cover them all here on That’s Good Medicine. Next week: Humankind’s historic progress in finding the end of aging. And here’s history in the making: FDA being sued by a tenacious group of public health advocates because of the agency’s ongoing support of the American Dental Association and the use of mercury amalgams for dental fillings. Good Medicine word of the week: adaptogens - single natural botanical products that promote health.
