Dr. John Bergman: (In Studio) – Why Obama Care Is Failing Us & How You Can Become Healthier So You Don’t Need It!

Dr. John Bergman who is our chiropractor, joined us today in studio. He's absolutely awesome and I encourage everybody to listen to his passion and enthusiasm for health and helping people. Today he was on fire. It's funny because inevitably when you talk about alternative health or natural healing, it seems to also bring up many other side issues like... * Politics * Religion & spirituality * Agriculture * History * Law * Freedom * The ecosystem * and many more! It's fascinating how something as simple as eating healthy food can then bring up a whole host of other issues in our lives. I think it's because what we eat affects the planet, government and whether or not we get disease. And we all know disease is a big friggin business. There's a lot of money in selling people pharmaceutical drugs and keeping them sick. It's a billion dollar business. Wherever the money is follow the greedy little hands of any government. They will do what they can to protect their profit. It's as simple as that. People get all caught up on whether or not Obamacare is good for the people or bad for the people. They get caught up on whether Obamacare is good for the government or bad for the government. Should we try to have universal health care like Australia or should it be privatized? These are all questions where the assumptions are never proved. We're assuming here that Obamacare and the medical model is actually true and good for us. When we talk about the medical model, let me be clear. There are two ways of treating people no matter if you use the allopathic approach or the mainstream medical approach. The two methods of treatment are: * Acute trauma care * Long term chronic disease care The medical industry is one of the best in the former but the worst for the latter. The issue becomes the application of the same principles for acute trauma care for long term chronic disease care. You cannot apply a "standard of care" for either way of treating a person but you absolutely can't apply the same principles for both. Our medical model is broken because we focus on disease and not the health of the body. This is the fundamental problem with mainstream medical care. We demonize germs, bacteria and viruses. We demonize these things rather than working with them to restore the health of the body. The focus is on killing the germ or bacteria rather than putting the focus on helping restore healing to the body. On top of that we've militarized language. We want to conquer disease and kill cancer cells and fight things. The more we fight the more resistance shows up. It's pretty simple actually. What we resists, persists. But you can see why mainstream medical care likes this approach. If they can find more things to demonize like bacteria and come up with more labels for diseases, they can create a drug or chemical that kills it. No wonder why it's a billion dollar business. So all the while, we in the natural health world are debating whether or not Obamacare is good for people or bad without ever defining our terms and questioning whether there can be such a thing as a "standard of care" for a standard person? We only need a standard of care because
