Understanding Western Medicine
Western Medicine, also known as biomedicine or conventional medicine, is a system where healthcare professionals such as doctors, nurses, pharmacists, and therapists treat symptoms and diseases using drugs, radiation, or surgery. It’s the dominant medical system in many parts of the world, focusing on evidence-based practices to manage and treat various health conditions.
The Role of Herbal Medicine
Herbal Medicine, or phytotherapy, involves using plants and plant extracts to treat a wide range of health conditions. This ancient form of medicine has been practiced for centuries across different cultures and remains a vital component of holistic health care today.
The Shift Away from Natural Treatments
The move away from natural treatments in mainstream healthcare can be traced back to significant historical events:
Rockefeller and Carnegie’s Influence: In the early 20th century, John D. Rockefeller and Andrew Carnegie began funding medical schools across the United States under the condition that they teach only allopathic medicine. This powerful alliance led to the systematic removal of curricula related to herbal medicine and natural treatments from these institutions.
The Profit Motive: The commercialization of healthcare has raised questions about the priorities within the medical industry. When illness becomes profitable, it’s important to consider whether this might impact the focus on preventative care and natural treatment options.
