Why Oils Support Healing and Drugs Don't

Why Oils Support Healing and Drugs Don't
WHY OILS SUPPORT HEALING AND DRUGS DON’T
by David Stewart, Ph.D.

If you tell a medical doctor that essential oils can support
healing with no negative side effects, they won't believe you.
This is because in medical school students are repeatedly told
by their professors that all effective medicines have negative
side effects, and if they don't, then they can't be effective. 
When I was in medical school one professor emphasized this
point in a colorful, graphic manner with specially prepared slides.
In each slide specific drugs were depicted as evil looking demons
or goblins. As he presented each picture, he explained, "Although
ugly and capable of doing harm, these 'demons' are also the
bearers of some good. So long as the benefits outweigh the risks,
we use them," he summarized. "We have no choice," he continued,
"because if a drug has no dangers, then it can have no benefits.
That's just the way it is. And that's why it is essential that only
qualified physicians be allowed to prescribe medicines,"
he concluded.
 
Actually, the professor was telling the truth. Within the
restricted practice of allopathy (MDs) the only real medicines
are physician prescribed pharmaceuticals. Such medicines always
do have negative side effects. All of them. No exceptions.
Hence, doctors are trained to accept the bad with the good as
the price of effective medicine.

The Danger is in the Drug, Itself
The dangers of prescription drugs are intrinsic to the drugs,
themselves. No matter how careful the physician in prescribing
and how compliant the patient in following doctor's orders,
even then deaths and damages occur. In fact, according to
the U.S. Centers for Disease Control, more than 100,000
Americans die every year, not from illegal drugs, not from drug
overdoses, not from over-the-counter drugs, and not from drug
abuses, but from properly prescribed, properly taken prescriptions.
In this country, more people die from doctor's prescriptions every
ten days than were killed in the 9/11 terrorist attacks.
Why is this so? Why do allopathic drugs always have undesirable
effects (along with their apparent benefits) while one can find
healing with natural products, such as essential oils, with no
undesirable effects? 

Here is why.

Why Companies Deliberately Sell Dangerous Products
It is illegal to patent any natural product. The way to big profits
in the medicine industry is to create an unnatural substance that
never before existed in nature, then patent it, and obtain a
monopoly. Hence, the molecules of pharmaceutical drugs are all
strange to the human body. In all the history of humankind, such
molecules were never encountered or taken into any human body.
Hence, the body does not easily metabolize them. God never made
your body to accept and deal with these chemicals and antibiotics.
Hence, you can find traces of prescription drugs in your body that
were taken in childhood, decades ago. 

On the other hand, natural molecules, such as those found in
essential oils, are easily metabolized by the body. In fact, your
body was created to handle them. When an essential oil molecule
finds the receptor sites it was designed to fit and conveys its
information to the cell, or participates in other therapeutic functions,
it then goes on its way to the liver and the kidneys and moves out of
the body. Its benefits have been conveyed and its job is complete. 
By contrast, the unnatural molecules of man-made drugs attach
themselves to various tissues, disrupting normal function, for years
while the body tries to figure out what to do with them. Meanwhile,
they wreak mischief with our bodily functions and even our minds.

Drugs versus Oils 
Drugs and oils work in opposite ways. Drugs toxify. Oils detoxify.
Drugs clog and confuse receptor sites. Oils clean receptor sites.
Drugs depress the immune system. Oils strengthen the immune
system. Antibiotics attack bacteria indiscriminately, killing both
the good and the bad. Oils attack only the harmful bacteria,
allowing our body’s friendly flora to flourish.

Drugs are designed to send misinformation to cells or to block
certain receptor sites in order to trick the body into giving up
symptoms. But drugs never deal with the actual causes of disease.
They aren't designed for that purpose. While they may give prompt
relief for certain uncomfortable symptoms, because of their
strange, unnatural design, they will always disrupt certain other
bodily functions. Thus you always have some side effects. 
Oil molecules send information to cells and cleanse receptor sites
so that they bring your body back to natural function. Oils are
Balancing to the body. Drugs are unbalancing to the body. Oils address
the causes of disease at a cellular level by deleting misinformation
and reprogramming correct information so that cells function properly
and in harmony with one another. With drugs, misinformation
is fed into the cells so that some temporary relief may be obtained,
but there is never any true healing. Drugs only trade one kind of
disease for another. 

Because essential oils properly applied always work toward the
restoration of proper bodily function, they do not cause undesirable
side effects. They are feeding the body with truth. Drugs feed the
body with lies. While no amount of truth can contradict itself, it
doesn't take many lies before contradictions occur and the body
suffers ill effects.

Sixteen Doctors Speak Out
Not all physicians are caught up in the idea that the only good
medicines are ones that can also be harmful. Here are some comments
by physicians, themselves, on the practice of medicine.
"The cause of most disease is in the poisonous drugs physicians
superstitiously give in order to effect a cure." Charles E. Page, M.D.
"Medicines are of subordinate importance because of their very
nature, they can only work symptomatically." Hans Kusche, M.D.
"The person who takes medicine must recover twice, once from the
disease and once from the medicine." William Osler, M.D.
"If all the medicine in the world were thrown into the sea, it would be
bad for the fish and good for humanity"
O.W. Holmes, M.D. (Prof. of Med. Harvard University)
"Drug medications consist in employing, as remedies for disease,
those things which produce disease in well persons. Its materia
medica is simply a lot of drugs or chemicals or dye-stuffs—in a word
poisons. All are incompatible with vital matter; all produce disease
when brought in contact in any manner with the living; all are poisons."
R.T. TraIl, M.D., (lecture to members of congress and the medical
profession, Smithsonian Institute, Washington D.C.)
"Every drug increases and complicates the patients condition."
Robert Henderson, M.D.
"The greatest part of all chronic disease is created by the
suppression of acute disease by drug poisoning."
Henry Lindlahr, M.D.
"Every educated physician knows that most diseases are not
appreciably helped by medicine."
Richard C. Cabot, M.D. (Mass. Gen. Hospital)
"Medicine is only palliative, for back of disease lies the cause,
and this cause no drug can reach." Wier Mitchel, M.D.
"Medical practice has neither philosophy nor common sense to
recommend it. In sickness the body is already loaded with
impurities. By taking drug - medicines more impurities are
added, thereby the case is further embarrassed and harder to
cure." Elmer Lee, M.D., Past Vice President, Academy of Medicine.
"Our figures show approximately four and one half million hospital
admissions annually due to the adverse reactions to drugs. Further,
the average hospital patient has as much as thirty percent chance,
dependinghow long he is in, of doubling his stay due to adverse drug
reactions." Milton Silverman, M.D. (Professor of Pharmacology,
University of California)
"What hope is there for medical science to ever become a true
science when the entire structure of medical knowledge is built
around the idea that there is an entity called disease which can be
expelled when the right drug is found?" John H. Tilden, M.D.
"We are prone to thinking of drug abuse in terms of the male
population and illicit drugs such as heroin, cocaine, and marijuana.
It may surprise you to learn that a greater problem exists with
millions of women dependent on legal prescription drugs."
Robert Mendelsohn, M.D (author of book, "Confessions of a
Medical Heretic.)
"Why would a patient swallow a poison because he is ill, or take
that which would make a well man sick."
L.F. Kebler, M.D.
"Drugs never cure disease. They merely hush the voice of nature's
protest, and pull down the danger signals she erects along the
pathway of transgression. Any poison taken into the system has
to be reckoned with later on even though it palliates present
symptoms. Pain may disappear, but the patient is left in a worse
condition, though unconscious of it at the time."
Daniel. H. Kress, M.D.
"The necessity of teaching mankind not to take drugs and
medicines, is a duty incumbent upon all who know their uncertainty
and injurious effects; and the time is not far distant when the
drug system will be abandoned." Charles Armbruster, M. D.

Conclusion
So there you have it, why oils heal and drugs don't. Let's hope
Dr. Armbruster is right, that "the time is not far distant when
the drug system will be abandoned." Pharmaceutical companies
and their physician drug dealers could market and sell natural
products with genuine healing capabilities, but most won't.
There isn't any money in it. 
In my opinion, changing the medical system toward more natural
and spiritual forms of healing is impossible. The system can't
change. It must be replaced. Those of you who have opted
out of the system in favor of essential oils and their physical,
mental, emotional and spiritual benefits are among the pioneers
who are replacing the system. 
And for those of you who have taken prescriptions drugs over
long periods of time, essential oils are your best friend because
they can cleanse the residues of these drugs from your system
once and for all and help restore your body back to its natural
healthy state.

THE MAILBOX

THE MAILBOX

There's something magical about the simple ritual of checking the mailbox—a tradition that once connected entire families to the world beyond their doorstep. From childhood races to be first to read the comics, to treasured letters saved for decades, the mailbox has been a keeper of memories and a bridge to loved ones. Yet in our fast-paced digital age, we've forgotten the power of this humble ritual and the profound joy of receiving something handwritten and personal. Discover why slowing down to write an old-fashioned letter might be exactly what our hearts need right now—and how this simple act can transform someone's entire day.

Just Start

Just Start
 Just START!!!

I’m really talking to myself today!  Have you ever wanted to do something but found every excuse in the world why you shouldn’t start yet!  

That’s been me for months…I want to write, to share my knowledge…but can’t seem to get started!  This popped up on FB this morning and it hit me hard! Gads…just start…

I have decades of “living the simple life” experience, I love to learn and I read almost every day, I think often of days gone by, the things I’ve learned from my grandparents, parents and so many others who have been a part of my 70 years of life!  So today I’m starting….with one paragraph…then another and another!  

For the past few months I have been devouring Brendon Burchards’ book, High Performance Habits.   The first chapter is about Clarity…knowing what you want out of life and having a specific plan to accomplish that! It warms my heart to see so many people wanting to get out of the rat race that seems to have sucked us in.  I did not grow up in the rat race because my parents would not allow it…but as an adult with a family of my own…I found myself being dragged into it!  I wanted out! So…I started a home based business and gradually worked myself out of that insane rat race. Every day I had to START…START to learn something new…START to implement the things that would get me where I wanted to be!  And guess what…I’m still STARTING…every day…learning, listening and implementing. 

Today I woke up to a list of things I need to do in town, 30 miles away.  My plan was to leave early so I could get them all done.  I checked my business page online and came across the above post.  It hit me hard.  I knew if I stuck with my plan, another day would go by and my dream/goal to write every day would be put off another day.  I would continue to stress about it another day, another week, another month and I would be not closer to my goal. 

I stopped
I sat down at my computer
I STARTED to write

And you can do it too!  START by making a list of the things you want to accomplish, the things you want to learn! Everyday do at least one small thing that gets you closer to your goal. 

Just START!!

My Simple Life

 
SIMPLE - I like simple

and front porches
and hollyhocks
and a hen and her chicks 
and fresh green beans from my garden
and my gorgeous red lilies
and  a fresh cup of tea shared with my neighbor
and old farm houses
and little kids playing in a mud puddle
and memories of days gone by

Simple feels really good to me and I’m guessing you might like it too !  

I’ve come full circle, from that crazy, busy, hectic life....you know the one I’m taking about .... to a more natural, simple and intentional one. That other life, the out of control one, is mostly just a memory now.  

During that “not so simple” time in my life I stumbled onto a “natural wellness” company that began to change my view of health. Through that season, I developed a desire to read labels, to study ingredients, to live with more intention in relationships, to ask myself and others hard questions, to stretch and grow out of my comfort zone, and to be empowered with knowledge about how our bodies work.

 I now enjoy taking time to breathe, time to connect, time to plan and time to dream… even if I have to steal that time away from the “busy-ness” that our culture drags us into.

Living a life full of healthy ingredients, healthy relationships and a healthy outlook on a balanced life is what I dream of for you and me! 

I have learned how rewarding it is to think simple... the way my grandparents lived out their lives.
 
I’ve come full circle...and you can come with me! 
I can help you create balance and harmony in your life. 
Together we will discover natural solutions to support your healthy body, mind and spirit.
