Lack of Knowledge or Lack of Adequate Knowledge Regarding Natural Cures

Is the truth about natural cures being suppressed?

'Is the truth about natural cures being suppressed?' appears to be more a question about human knowledge regarding natural cures, than one about the suppression of the truth about natural cures. This issue involves the partial or total lack of medical knowledge about natural cures or the lack of appropriate and pertinent medical knowledge about natural cures, more than the actual suppression of truth.

Why might one argue that this is so?

The medical profession, portrayed as any individual medical person or as a collective whole, has far more to gain by attaining the knowledge about natural cures for human illnesses and diseases, than by suppressing the truth about them. People, as individuals and as humankind as a whole have much to gain in terms of general health and well being.

The majority of medical professionals and health care givers are continually seeking additional, improved ways to help and to cure human beings of many different kinds of health-related conditions, diseases and other medical problems. They are not intentionally avoiding measures, procedures or treatments that they know might or would help people medically or cure them of fatal illnesses or diseases.

No one wants to see any disease processes run rampant throughout the entire world. Everyone, who is a legitimate medical professional, does whatever is necessary to prevent that from happening. In fact, not to do so, would be totally opposite to what medical theory and practice teach, as well as what medical professionals and health care givers represent with regard to the field of medicine, medical practice and global health care.

At the same time, alternative health remains controversial, because members of the medical profession have the duty and responsibility to protect their patients and human beings, as a whole, from those kinds of medical practices that may ultimately do more harm than good.

A lack of knowledge or the lack of adequate knowledge about natural cures, leads medical professionals and other health care givers into the pursuit of medical knowledge that takes them down their own, more familiar pathways of medical knowledge, rather than into the kinds of medical knowledge that are accepted or have been developed in other countries or different parts of the world.

It is not possible or even feasible, for any one of the world's medical professionals to know every possible cure for all of the things that ail humankind, as that would be involve being part of the realm of divine medical knowledge, rather than being an active participant in the human realm of medical knowledge.

At the same time, the medical realm is one of continual discovery and knowing that, medical and health care professionals continue to seek the best possible answers for their patients who are ill, suffering or stand in need of cures.

Most medical professionals are continually seeking and acquiring new medical knowledge, learning and developing new practices and procedures, as well as teaching other health care professionals any recent medical information they have gained. Many medical professionals are continually engaged in medical research that involves finding new cures.

At the same time, the field of medical knowledge is so vast in scope that no medical professional can hope to know everything that can possibly be known about medicine and possible cures; nor do they have to acknowledge, agree with or accept every cure that is purported, as even though many of them may appear to have some merit. The final outcome of treatment with them may still be uncertain, as there are no guarantees.

It is exciting to see what happens when western-oriented medical professionals and eastern-oriented medical professionals get together to share or exchange their different realms of medical knowledge.

The majority of medical professionals are open to learn from each other, but there are times when there are questionable practices that need to be exposed, reviewed, adequately re-tested and proven to be beneficial, beyond any possible doubt.

Sometimes, these kinds of practices have to be halted, as there may be problems that reveal these practices as being detrimental. They may need to be developed further, in order to eliminate what may prove to be non-beneficial or that which may result in lethal side effects or fatal outcomes to patients. Research regarding more medical information may be indicated and thus, it must be sought first, with respect to many medical claims as cures.

New, as well as more advanced professional, medical guidelines are being developed, all of the time. There are legitimate attempts by health care professionals to enforce those guidelines, in order to protect those who are the most vulnerable, namely those who are sick, terminally ill or dying.

There is room for serious and legitimate concern, if it becomes apparent that the medical guidelines have become too restrictive and do not allow enough room for the medical research indicated.

It is not highly likely that any true, medical practitioner would withhold accurate, medical knowledge that he or she knows would cure individuals, groups of people or large masses, who stand in need of being cured. In fact, thinking along those lines, suggests an element of human fear and paranoia.

At the same time, there is always a degree of risk associated with accepting and practicing things that are totally new and different, particularly when they involve new claims of medical cures. Even supposed miracles are suspect.

It is far more likely that more knowledge is needed or more adequate and appropriate knowledge is required in order to prove, beyond the shadow of a doubt, the truth regarding a questionable scenario involving the claim of a cure.

Attaining adequate and appropriate medical knowledge is time consuming. It involves extensive research, numerous inquiries and vast amounts of medical testing that must be carried out and sometimes that has to be done, from many different directions.

The question comes down to one in which medical professionals are compelled to ask, how many incidences must there be in order to prove that something is a cure? Or, how many proofs does it take in order to be able to claim that something is a cure? Is the cure temporary or permanent?

Does this treatment cure one person, one hundred people, one thousand or everyone?

Are there serious side effects or adverse health repercussions, with regard to this particular treatment? What is the proven ratio of success versus failure? What else has to be considered in terms of extenuating circumstances? What other factors are involved in this particular treatment?

If you are a patient, who thinks that a cure or the information about a possible cure for an illness or medical condition that you may have, is being withheld from you and your family, it is advisable to seek further information from your own physician, first.

After that, if you still are not satisfied with the answers that you receive, ask your physician to refer you to other experts, ones who are more knowledgeable in that particular realm of medicine. He or she will do that, because it is in everyone's best interest for you to have your questions answered appropriately and correctly. Further tests may be indicated.

Engage in research on your own, but with the use of appropriate medical sources of information. There is a great deal of data available on the Internet, but be aware that everything that you read may not necessarily be accurate. Having an inquiring mind allows you to seek answers on your own, but make certain that the answers that you find are correct, as you can be misled or misguided by inaccurate sources of information.

Be aware that there are always many additional factors that have to be taken into consideration with regard to any medical claims towards effective medical treatments or cures. There may be better medical options available to you, that you or others are not aware of at any time.

What you think is suppression of the truth about natural cures, may not be suppression at all. It simply may the lack of information or the lack of adequate information.

Perhaps that is one of the reasons why medical research is so exciting. One can always suggest that with the right knowledge or information, cures can become a reality. In fact, almost any medical researcher can find a cure for something, if he or she searches long and hard enough.

Be aware that many times, even though it seems that cures are not highly likely, they are always possible. So are miracles.
