(Townsend Letter for Doctors) Read reviews . (DOCTOR YOURSELF is available in Spanish, Polish, Italian, Chinese, and several other languages.)
"If we doctors threw all our medicines
into the sea, it would be that much better for our patients and that much
worse for the fishes." Oliver Wendell Holmes, M.D. I have seen hospital patients
allowed to go two weeks without a bowel movement. I have seen patients
told that they have six months to live when they might live sixty months.
I have seen people recover from serious illness, only to have their physician
berate them for having used natural healing methods to do so. I have
seen infants spit up formula while their mothers were advised not to breast
feed. I've seen better ingredients in dog food than in the average school
or hospital lunch.
And I have seen enough.
Don't bother looking in the
history books for what has slaughtered the most Americans. Look instead
at your dinner table. There's an old saying: "One fourth of
what you eat keeps you alive. The other three-fourths keep your doctor
alive." We eat too much of the wrong things and not enough of the
right things. Scientific research continually indicates nationwide
vitamin and mineral deficiencies in our country. We spend over two million million dollars (two trillion) each year on disease care in America.
Is it any surprise that doctors consistently place among the very highest
incomes?
"And we have made of ourselves living
cesspools, and driven doctors to invent names for our diseases."
Plato Nearly two-thirds of a million
men died in the Civil War. All other U.S. wars put together add about
another two-thirds of a million soldiers killed. That means that
about 1,300,000 Americans have died, totally, in all the wars in U.S. history.
That is a lot of deaths.
Today, right now, we lose
more than that number of Americans each year because of
cardiovascular disease and cancer.
So always remember that disease
is the real enemy.
About 10 million soldiers
were killed in World War I, charging machine guns and getting mowed down
month after month. There were nearly a million casualties at the
Somme and another million at Verdun. A terrible slaughter went on
for four years. Yet, in just the two years following the war, over
20 million people died from influenza. That is more than twice as
many deaths from the flu in one-half the time it took the machine guns.
During the American Civil
War, three times as many soldiers died from disease as from battle.
Today, alcohol and tobacco kill nearly as many Americans in one year as
the entire Civil War did in four.
Results are all that matter
to me. Alternative medicine works. The natural treatment of
illness can be accomplished safely, inexpensively, and effectively.
We've all been taught that anything that is safe and inexpensive cannot
possibly be really effective against "real diseases." It is time
to rethink that, and especially to see for yourself what works.
I am an educator, not a physician. My work is not prescription,
but rather description. I'd like for us to be free to utilize any
reasonable health care approach. To decide, we need education far
more than medication.
Each treatment regimen included
here is not mine. I do not stay up late at night making all this
up. These ideas are not original. They are generally not new,
either. I have collected the safest and most effective healing approaches
that I can find from physicians worldwide. I hope you find them to
be as helpful as they have been for my family.
Natural healing is not about
avoiding doctors. It is about not needing to go to doctors. A dentist
is not upset if you are cavity-free. A doctor should not be upset
if you are healthy.
The idea is to be well.
The first step is wanting to be. The old Chinese saying is "When
you are sick of sickness, you are no longer sick."
The second step is to do
something to improve your health. Each of us is ultimately responsible
for our own wellness. I think we should leave no stone unturned in
our search for better health. I also believe that you get out of
your body what you put into it. Your body will respond to your efforts
to improve your health.
The time to start is right
now. Another old saying: "If not now, when? If not here, where?
If not you, then who?"
Reviews of DOCTOR YOURSELF.COM:
“DoctorYourself.com is fabulous and brilliant. Andrew Saul is educating us to educate ourselves. He is taking this battle to Parliament (click here), or wherever it has to go to change things within the medical establishment. Andrew Saul is making a huge difference: he is out there in the vanguard of the orthomolecular movement that is breaking down barriers and breaking down doors.”
“I had been a practicing pediatric gastroenterologist for 25 years. During that time I watched some really beautiful children and young men and women die under my care because I had nothing more to offer, and unfortunately what I had offered many times only made their lives more miserable. Recent health problems led me to read about Linus Pauling and orthomolecular medicine and it has been like discovering an advanced ancient civilization that I had no idea had ever existed. After reading Doctor Yourself by Dr. Andrew Saul, I have become a very angry man. I've just realized that for 25 years I had been making my patients sick and big pharma rich. I've just realized that those chronic hepatitis patients that died waiting for a liver transplant could have been easily cured with vitamin C. I realize now that my toximolecular medical education only led me to do more harm than good. That is not a good feeling to have. I only wish that all my critically ill patients had read Dr. Saul's book and fired their doctor. Doctor Yourself in fact has inspired me to now open an exclusive orthomolecular medicine practice for children and adults of all ages, and copies of the book will be in the waiting room for all to read. In the names of all those I didn't help before, I hope this time to make a difference.”
"Andrew Saul is a brilliant speaker and writer. His DoctorYourself.com website has an enormous amount of very important information dealing with the use of nutrition in the treatment of mental and physical disease. It is one of the very best I have seen. Thank you, Dr. Saul, for making this information more available and thus promoting the development of the medicine of the 21st century, Orthomolecular Medicine."
“I am always impressed how very well you do in films, your excellent choice of words to put your thoughts across. You are a masterful speaker! This was again confirmed when I watched the new movie from Australia, FoodMatters."
"Andrew Saul believes that education beats medication, and educate he does."
“You were absolutely magnificent in the Food Matters movie. I just loved your presence.”
“My nutrition professor, Andrew Saul, was someone my classmates and I thought to be quite the 'radical thinker' at the time. Week after week, month after month, he espoused the value of living foods in helping the body to heal itself from physical illness, mental disease and even addiction. Dr. Saul taught us to treat the whole body - not just the symptoms - to prevent and reverse disease, and to do this by eating fresh organic fruits and vegetables, as well as their juices, whole, sprouted grains, and raw nuts and seeds - living foods that exist in nature and have a profund healing effect on every cell in the body. He presented double-blind placebo-controlled studies on various nutrients as well as his own case studies, proving that eating foods in their natural state - unaltered by cooking, processing, preservatives, chemical fertilizers, fungicides, pesticides, or genetic modification - does indeed provide the body with all the essential vitamins, minerals, live enzymes, and phytochemicals - everything it needs to prevent and fight off disease and create vitality."
"Andrew Saul has a sharp clear mind, a dry sense of humor, and low-key brilliance shining through. This is combined with a heart and intent that is always in the right place."
“Modern medicine’s narrow approach, to treat every disease as if it were a drug deficiency, has resulted in a steep price for humanity. It is obvious millions have died prematurely since vitamin C was first discovered over 80 years ago. Brave and resolute men and women, Albert Szent-Györgyi, Irwin Stone, Linus Pauling, Ewan Cameron, Emil Ginter, Matthias Rath, Andrew Saul, Tom Levy, Steve Hickey, Raxit Jariwalla, John T. Ely, Hilary Roberts, and others promoted the idea of vitamin C therapy but were readily dismissed, even belittled.”
Producer/directors James Colquhoun and Laurentine ten Bosch, when asked, "Who are your heroes? Are there people you look up to and learn from?" answered:
"I send my patients to your website. Your work is excellent."
"DoctorYourself.com is an excellent self-health website."
"Andrew Saul is a terrific speaker. I have heard him lecture, and always walk away feeling inspired."
"Good on you! That is how you would be complimented here in New Zealand for your website. I strongly agree with what you are doing. And the Journal of Orthomolecular Medicine is definitely a good read, in my opinion."
“Your work in the health care field is magnificent and courageous. I offer you my
heartiest appreciation.”
"If you would enjoy access to a huge library of health-related articles with an orthomolecular approach, on a website made by a man with an outrageous sense of humor, try DoctorYourself.com."
"Practical tips from an excellent advocate of nutritional therapy. Visit DoctorYourself.com for access to a vast amount of information on vitamins and other self-healing resources. The site has abundant evidence, especially, of the high value and healing power of vitamin C and helpful hints about how to get what you need."
"I love Andrew Saul's book Doctor Yourself! The man is pretty freakin' groovy too. He and his book are wonderful and super clever, as well as funny and witty. This is a great book for laypersons and doctors alike. I would recommend him to patients: a fantastic website and tool to find out much info about your health: www.doctoryourself.com." (Canadian College of Naturopathic Medicine student Amandha Vollmer) "We are very pleased to learn of the Doctor Yourself website, Newsletter, and the consumer information they provide. Dr. Andrew Saul provides holistic
information on a variety of health topics and conditions. You'll find everything from healthy eating to exercising."
"We very much appreciate what you are doing at your website, and especially like your autobiography."
"Dr. Andrew Saul has a web site that is must-reading for anyone seriously interested in health and doubtful about the efficacy of conventional medicine. If you are as impressed as I am with the wealth of health information presented, you can subscribe to Dr. Saul's free newsletter."
"If I were president, my Surgeon General would not be a surgeon. I'd want someone like Doc Saul to be the man. I'll bet if Doc Saul was the Surgeon General, we would soon see Medline stop ignoring research from orthomolecular medicine."
(If you think it is wrong that your taxpayer-supported US National Library of Medicine excludes the Journal of Orthomolecular Medicine, you may wish to look here and also here).
SOME HEALTHY QUOTES:
Be careful in reading health books. You may die of a misprint.
Conspiracy nut, leftist, madman. These are terms of dismissal so you don’t have to listen to the argument. It would be healthier and more fun to hear what someone has to say.
The specific disease doctrine is the grand refuge of weak, uncultured, unstable minds such as now rule in the medical profession.
Freedom of the press is guaranteed only to those who own one.
If you’re looking for self-help, why would you read a book written by somebody else?
The medical profession (is) a conspiracy to hide its own shortcomings. No doubt the same may be said of all professions. They are all conspiracies against the laity... (U)ntil there is a practicable alternative to blind trust in the doctor, the truth about the doctor is so terrible that we dare not face it. How can I get thinner?
Give up lunch and dinner.
Joy, temperance and repose
The best part of a donut is the hole.
When asked where he would like to buried when he died, Yogi Berra’s answer was,

The West was not settled by men and women who had taken a course in “How to Be a Pioneer."
Man is a food-dependent creature. If you don't feed him, he will die. If you feed him improperly, part of him will die.

The physician is Nature’s assistant.
People’s minds are changed through observation and not through argument.

imperils their future. Our resources are fast giving out, and the
next problem will be to make them last.
Every week, Americans throw
out about 420 million pounds of food.
There is no such thing
as freedom of choice unless there is freedom to refuse.
There is enough in the
world for everyone's need, but not enough for everyone's greed.
If the only tool you have
is a hammer, you tend to see every problem as a nail.
The work of the doctor will, in the future, be ever more that of an educator, and ever less that
of a man who treats ailments.
If you really want to

What ails the physician
that he dies of the disease
The carpenter desires
timber, the physician disease.
Hunger is not the cause
of death, for deaths approach the man who has eaten.
I find medicine is the
best of all trades because whether you do any good or not you still get
your money.
The best doctor gives the least medicines.
Some physicians would stand by and see their patients die rather than
use ascorbic acid because in their finite minds it exists only as a vitamin. Vitamin C should be given to the patient while the doctors
ponder the diagnosis.
We’re all ignorant, just on different subjects.
This guy’s doctor told him he had six months to live. The guy said he
couldn’t pay his bill. The doctor gave him another six months.
Doctors are the same as lawyers; the only difference is that lawyers merely rob you, whereas doctors rob you and kill you too.

The art of medicine consists in amusing the patient while nature cures the disease.
Medicine doesn't get to the root of the trouble. It only conceals it. The result is a more highly poisoned condition which may become chronic disease. All drugs are harmful to the system. They are contrary to nature. . . . Mark my words. There is no way to health except the natural way.
It is a matter of common knowledge that any processing that foods undergo serves to make them more harmful than unprocessed foods.
Without health there is no happiness. An attention to health, then, should take the place of every other object.

converting its opponents. What does happen is that its opponents gradually die out and that the growing generation is familiar with the idea from the beginning.
He who lives by rule and wholesome diet is a physician to himself.
Disease is the censor pointing out the humans, animals and plants who are imperfectly
nourished.
When in doubt, try nutrition first.
Health is the fastest growing failing business in western civilization.
The world cares very little about what a person knows; it is what the person
is able to do that counts.
It is time to lay to rest the notion that germs jump into people and
cause diseases.
Of several remedies, the physician should choose the least sensational.
The fellow who has not had any experience is so dumb he doesn't know a thing can't be done, and he goes ahead and does it.

the average man, but more simply.
