Arthritis Cure – Search For Truth

When doctors (specialists of arthritis) condemned her existence to a lifelong suffering of pain and increasing doses of harmful and addictive drugs, saying, "Bear with it, there is no cure for arthritis ...you will be in a wheelchair within five years," Margie did not accept their verdict. She figured out all by herself, "There is a cause for arthritis and if there is a cause, then there must be a remedy . . . . If the doctors did not know anything about it, it did not mean there was no remedy. And with this optimistic rational, she charged into the pathway of "Search for Truth".

Margie tells us the story of her "Painful Odyssey through the Medic-World," and her pleasant adventures into the world of knowledge of nutrition and optimum health. Needless to say, she cured her arthritis..."THE INCURABLE DISEASE." The Medical Establishment will call this "spontaneous remission," yet Margie can turn her arthritis on and off to the tune of a melody. She has learned which foods trigger her arthritic pains and aches.

When Margie first came to my office for Nutrition Consultation, her main concern was her obesity, at 260 pounds for her 5 ft., 5 1/2 inches.

After two hours of questioning, I realized that she did not consider a major problem the fact that she still had about 20% of her arthritic pains and aches. For her having suffered constant pain for almost forty years, having cured herself of 80% of her pains was such a heavenly blessing she could bear slight aches and ignore them.

When I mentioned to her the fact that I could I could not put her on any weight reduction program until her aches were cured 100% and until she felt super-duper, her eyes sparkled with incredulous amazement and pleasure. Apparently, being free of pain 100% of the time had been to her such a "Sweet and unattainable dream" that she embarked on her new program with the enthusiasm of a pioneer. At the time of writing this book, she made a confession that when she first came to my office; she thought nutritionists were mainly concerned with such things as dieting, weight loss, and special diets for diabetes. The conventional "Dietetics" approach to nutrition. She thought...putting it in her words..."I was afraid to tell you; I thought you would pooh-pooh me for telling you I had cured my arthritis by eliminating certain foods from my diet... arthritis is supposed to be an incurable disease."

Naturally, what Margie discovered was that I not only believed in her claims, but encouraged her to complete her self-cure. I can substantiate her claims that she is 100% free of pain. Free of swelling. Although pain is a subjective feeling, and only a "Symptom" and not a "sign" for the skeptical doctor to substantiate or quantify it, pain has a unique characteristic to register itself on the face of the bearer. Margie has become her perky, cheerful self and, despite her busy schedule of working in the family business and extensive traveling, managed to write her book.

She has two important messages in her book. To the layman, her message says, "Annie, get your gun" and start singing "Anything you can do, I can do better." Put your body in your own hands and use the right bullets. Use nutrition, exercise, relaxation and aim at your health, your "optimum health." With some trial and error you, too, will learn to aim correctly. To the doctors, her message simply says, "Mirror, mirror on the wall, who is the most knowledgeable of them all?" It is time that doctors and medical students assess the type and amount of knowledge they are receiving from "The Establishment." Are they getting their dollar's worth?

Going to medical school is a very expensive investment and if they are being short-changed and because of this their patients will abandon them and seek self-cure, within the next few decades, a doctor may be an obsolete figure in our society, not because there will not be sick people, but because sick people, distrustful of their doctor's knowledge and abilities, will seek help elsewhere than the doctor's offices. Sick people who become disenchanted with their doctors do not necessarily find another doctor who is knowledgeable in Preventive Medicine, since although the ranks of this new breed of doctors are increasing, it is still difficult for the average person to locate one in his/her neighborhood.

What the sick people have easy access to are: popular books, health food stores, lay nutritionists and various non- conventional outlets. By trial and error, by reading, the determined person does improve his/her health to a degree that most describe as, "I cannot describe how miserable I was and how much money, time I wasted going from one doctor to another. If the cure for my problem was such a simple thing as changing my eating habits and a few vitamins and minerals, how come all these doctors do not know anything about it? I feel like suing the doctor for malpractice. It is a blessing I have come so far and I consider this a great improvement." What the sick person has access to does not necessarily guarantee what he/she really needs. This is the case of many clients who walk into my office for Nutrition Consultation.

Invariably, while their nutrition is along the lines of healthful eating and they have a bag full of bottles to show me what supplements they have tried, I find several major gaps and sometimes in their haphazard trial and error. I do not condemn the lay-nutritionists, nor the efforts of the patients for self-cure. On the contrary, any patient who comes to my office with such a background gets a friendly pat on the back.

The point I want to raise is for the doctors. If there were doctors who were trained in the gold mine of "Nutrition Therapy," then patients would not seek the lay and the non-conventional help. Americans do depend upon their doctors for their health just as they depend upon their cars for transportation. It is part of the American way of life. There is no such thing as an "INCURABLE DISEASE." ALL diseases are curable if we only knew and applied the right measures. For all diseases are preventable by maintaining optimum health through ortho-molecular nutrition and ortho-molecular environment. Correct molecular environment inside and outside of our bodies, guarantees not only a disease-free body, but optimum health. It is a pleasure to present to you Margie Garrison "THE FIRST SELF-CURE SPECIALIST."
