| | Background on Medical Practice |
| | With the support of the pharmaceutical industry, whose sole livelihood depends upon allopathic medicine, the congress and state legislatures eventually made allopathic medicine the approved "standard of care." With the support of the court system, non-allopathic medical care is "malpractice," and the course of medical care in the U.S was sealed. | | | Conventional Western Medicine is organized around the theory of diseases, which believes that a person becomes sick because he or she contracts a disease. | | | Allopathic physicians are now finding themselves being manipulated by the very theory of medicine they support. |
