For details see my paper, \u201cA Disruptive Concept in Drug Therapy\u201d posted on LinkedIn<\/strong> (<\/strong>https:\/\/www.linkedin<\/strong>.com\/in\/albert-leung<\/strong>-9b933913)<\/strong> and on my blog (<\/strong>www.ayslcorp.com\/blog<\/strong><\/a>). <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The\nfollowing are basic points to recognize in order to understand the dead-end of\nmodern drug therapy along with its vicious cycle, and why traditional medicines\nhave never been properly evaluated, let alone validated.  If you have\nother better ideas to break the vicious cycle than what I have suggested, or\nhave other logical reason to maintain its status quo,<\/em> other than enabling\na greedy few to exploit the health of the vast majority of other world citizens,\nincluding you and me, please tell everyone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There are\nthree kinds of therapeutics:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

  1. Synthetic chemicals<\/em> \u2013 brand new to our planet, never before had any direct interactions with us in human history.  These are our modern drugs used in drug therapy.  It is now stuck in a rut for us all, except for drug makers and their associates who have finally attained their dream (I still believe they never expected or planned it, just dumb luck and then keeping quiet) \u2013 making and selling any toxic drugs that don\u2019t have to be effective and safe, but they can charge consumers any price they want with total impunity, in perpetuity.  <\/li>
  2. Natural chemicals<\/em> \u2013 consist of 2 kinds: (1) isolated, well identified, and defined, including artemisinin for malaria, lutein for eye health, and vincristine or taxol for cancer; and (2) those still present in their natural material sources (plants, including foods), which are often taken to represent the herbs.  Both these chemicals, inside or outside of herbs, have a long history of interactions with humans since we emerged as a distinct, animal species on earth.  Examples of the 2nd<\/sup> type include coffee with caffeine and ginseng with ginsenosides.  Researchers who have confused the herb materials with one or two chemicals therein (which they assume to represent the herbs\u2019 identity and quality) have been generating much of the irrelevant or irreproducible data during the past decades.  This has prevented the proper evaluation and validation of traditional medicines as a legitimate healing system even up to this date.  I bet some of the scientists who are most adamantly against true natural medicines have never spent any time with a truly qualified and experienced healer or practitioner of herbal medicine, or they may have been so brainwashed by Big Pharma or so enriched by the vicious cycle that they continue to defend its status quo<\/em>. <\/li>
  3. Natural therapeutics (herbal medicines)<\/em>\n\u2013 these are not chemicals isolated from their natural materials (e.g., herbs)\nbut actually are the traditionally prepared materials themselves with their\nfull complement of chemicals (known and unknown) used as a whole, which are no\ndifferent from the foods we eat, handed down from our ancestors which we know\nas traditional medicines.   These are the true time-tested\ntraditional therapeutics.  Many of these are still being used by the\nmajority of our world\u2019s population.  However, with the greed, now so obvious,\nof the pharmaceutical industry and its associates (esp. the insurance\nindustry), these traditional medicines would not be around for too long, unless\nthe vicious cycle of modern drug therapy is broken soon. <\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    Among the 3 types of therapeutics, only the first one, synthetic chemicals, causes the vicious cycle.\u00a0 The reason is that, being brand-new on this planet, they need to be truly time-tested in our body for much more than their measly 20 or 30 years that include clinical trials of up to 20 years<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    With the other 2 categories, since they are all natural chemicals, they have already gone through much of the time testing in our body.\u00a0\u00a0 This would make it relatively easy for us to go on as I have planned, already described in my recent books and posts on my blog and elsewhere.\u00a0 My plan for shaping up some of the current deficient or fake herbal supplements on the market hasn\u2019t changed, nor the introduction of simple herbal supplements and traditional formulas with their unique fingerprints.\u00a0 <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    After 80\nlong years of trying, modern drug therapy has ended up in the vicious cycle\nthat only benefits a few exploiters of our health.  It would do nothing\nfor our health except they may offer temporary relief for some people, but will\nruin it in the long term, because our complex body can\u2019t be simplified, nor the\ntime required for the drugs to realize their true effects, be shortened. \nWe need to overhaul the system, involving younger bright brains and new\ntechnologies, other than the biological and chemical ones that we have already\nbeen using, each of us digging deeper and deeper into our respective holes,\nlost in the minute entities, without a view towards our total health. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    I am\nencouraged and glad to report that only after a few months being active on\nLinkedIn, my connections have increased many-fold.  Now, probably at least\nhalf of them are alternative healthcare professionals of various diverse fields. \nMany agree with me that our body can heal itself when we keep it properly\nnourished, balanced, and healthy so that it can retain or strengthen our innate\nability to resist or restore damage by outside stress (physical, chemical or\nbiological); and with the practice of true prevention, we can avoid taking many\nof the toxic synthetic drugs.  I hope my fellow herbalists and alternative\nprofessionals will continue to support me and help me spread my message to the\nmillennials and their children\u2019s and grandchildren\u2019s generations.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    As to my drug colleagues and friends, please ponder what you have done in the vicious cycle.  Maybe you can start thinking outside of your own holes (specialties) and communicate with your alternative counterparts and start working towards a solution to the so-far unresolvable time and our complex body.  Perhaps together, we can work out a solution to give us good health that we can live to experience, not just a myriad of individual complicated scientific achievements, lying around for future generations to try to decipher, provided our vicious cycle of toxic drugs hasn\u2019t killed us all or turned us into a mutated species.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
