Take lots of medications
Every med has a side effect. While I do agree there is a time and place for medications, most of the prescription activity in the U.S. perpetuates health problems by treating symptoms instead of promoting healing. Things like anti-biotics, oral contraceptives, and corticosteroids can cause major problems with the gastrointestinal terrain, damage the immune system, cause liver problems, and mess with enzyme function. Taking a baby aspirin every day to prevent heart attacks is dangerous. "Aspirin can cause bleeding in the intestinal track and can be toxic to the liver." You can get similar health benefits by consuming foods like "cold-water fish, fruits and vegetables high in antioxidants, and certain botanicals that naturally reduce the Cox-2 enzyme and provide other anti-inflammatory benefits."
