Publisher Description: The book reviews the causes of illness and offers solutions towards providing good health and health care in an effective and affordable way.
First: The Welfare Principle that the State will provide in key areas including income, education and healthcare. This has lead to the end of self-reliance and responsibility.
Second: The medical treatment now widely offered does not produce good health but rather the reverse, evidence for this is given with a researched critique of the present drug industry led medical treatment including facts on the withdrawal of unsafe drugs and the failure of regulation.
Inequality of income - A further cause of much illness and costly reliance on the NHS is shown to be due to the large difference between the richer and poorer segments of our population.
Unless Society is improved by reforms in social justice, equality and correct information and also individuals take responsibility for their own diet and life style, as this book suggests, the nation's health remains at risk. |
