I bought in to that garbage about five years ago and paid for it in a very painful way. While herbs and all the other things that you hear about health nuts and survivalists doing for their health may help them in some ways, it isn't going to hold a candle to medication. Furthermore even with all of that stuff that they do you have to change your diet too and avoid GMO and so on and so on and do endless research and on top of all of that be able too afford that kind of stuff. It just isn't realistic. As far as med corporations being greedy and trying to make their competition sound bad that is nothing new. Many, Many corporations play dirty and are money hungry.
