Overview
Is your doctor making you sick? If you have been told that you have high blood pressure, low thyroid or diabetes, you may be a victim of one of the most common medical scams of our time. Are these conditions really diseases, or could they be clever methods for medicine to drum up business? Internationally acclaimed medical anthropologists Sydney Ross Singer and Soma Grismaijer are known for their discoveries of the lifestyle causes of disease. Their research breakthroughs include linking breast cancer with bras, migraines with sleep position, and more. Now, they are exposing one of the most insidious and destructive causes of disease -- doctors! As businesspeople who profit from sickness, doctors have a conflict of interest that can be, and frequently is, deadly. And their treatments, which increasingly consist of lifetime medication addiction, may be for conditions that aren't really diseases after all. It's time to open our eyes to what medicine and doctors are doing to us. It's time for the MEDICAL REVOLUTION!

About the author
Sydney Ross Singer is a medical anthropologist, the author of several groundbreaking and controversial health books, and the director of the Institute for the Study of Culturogenic Disease, located in Hawaii. He is internationally recognized for his revolutionary and shocking research linking breast cancer with the wearing of tight bras, which he describes in his book, Dressed To Kill. Trained in biochemistry, anthropology and medicine, Sydney is pioneering a new field of health research, called Applied Medical Anthropology, shedding light on the many ways our culture is making us sick. Since his work often challenges industries that promote or profit from damaging lifestyles, much of his research has been suppressed and censored, especially by the medical industry. The hallmark of Sydney's work is that it empowers people to take responsibility for their own health by understanding how their attitudes and behaviors are leading to disease. This enables people to eliminate the harmful lifestyle causes of their problems, giving their bodies a chance to finally heal.
