great article. I am a former pharm rep ans saw first hand medication’s are given as a temp. fix. Your article totally supports the entire picture of supporting the body with food, excercise, and supplements that have the power to help correct and or enhance treating the root problem of many chronic diseases. A new area that I am researching is supporting Arterial Health. If the vehicle that carries our blood supply is damaged then how can anything get to where it needs to be properly? It can’t. Another area where treating the root problem will give you a solution.
