September is National Drug-Free Pain Management Awareness Month. Opioid addiction is a national crisis that is destroying lives. In this episode, find out:
--How OxyContin was originally (and wrongly) promoted as a pain solution with little possibility of addiction.
--The influence of pharmaceutical money in pushing our nation's healthcare system to promote the increased use of addictive prescription opioids.
--Why the United States has an over-reliance on Disease Care to the detriment of our health care system's results. And why Structure-Function Health Care should be 80% of our health care system.
--The role of the American Medical Association in discouraging the use of safe and natural alternatives to dangerous pharmaceuticals.
--The astonishing number of deaths annually from "PROPERLY-PRESCRIBED" prescription drugs.
--Why opioids are NOT helpful for chronic pain and should only be used for seven days (and never more than two weeks) in acute pain situations.
--How prescription opioids destroy your body's own opioid receptors and decrease your body's ability to handle pain.
--Why Dr. Prather believes Structure-Function Care should be the primary care physician and that most pharmaceuticals should be written by specialists instead of general practitioners.
--How a study showed a 60% cost savings and 85% decrease in adverse conditions with Structure-Function Care being used as the primary care physician.
--The signs that show when you are truly addicted to opioids.
