Now of days I know very few people, and almost no one my age, who isn't
taking half a dozen very invasive drugs for this or that or nothing but
imagined
ills. People no longer view their bodies as self-regulating, self-healing
but
rather as something that must be fine tuned with chemicals or else ill
health
is unavoidable. We took the entire brood of children for checkups two
days ago
and when the nurse asked us to list the medicines the children were
taking,
she stared and blinked when we said "none". What medicinces are they
allergic
to? Don't have a clue, they've never had any. Same when I went for a
dental
checkup. What drugs are you on? None. The dental assistant quizzed me
for
five minutes thinking I surely didn't understand the question. EVERYONE
takes
drugs for something.
