Milk Soy Protein Intolerance

I first learned of Milk Soy Protein Intolerance (MSPI) in the office of a pediatric gastroenterologist's office with my seven-week-old son, Max.

An Introduction to Medical Billing

A growing number of professional, experienced health consultants and medical claim processors are needed in the country today.

9 Medical Lies and Why I Abandoned Medicine

By education and by trade, I was a drug chemist. My passion for science motivated a successful career in drug design and synthesis ' in both academia and industry. As a scientist, I witnessed first-hand the priorities of international pharmaceutical companies (Big Pharma), which ranked wealth first and health a distant second. In the pharmaceutical industry, making money supercedes science. Science no longer prevails in medicine. Instead, modern medicine has been democratized. Drug approval is ...

An Interesting Look At Tummy Tuck Cost

The cost of a tummy tuck is something to consider when making your ultimate decision. The fees vary and depend on the type of surgery performed, geographic location, hospital and anesthesia fees and other costs. Because a tummy tuck is almost always considered elective surgery, the procedure is usually not covered under medical insurance. The associated costs of a tummy tuck include the cost of the procedure itself as well as hospital costs and anesthesia. Fees are typically paid in advance of ...

Role of Internet in Healthcare

Health information and medical advice on the Net have set a new trend of self-help and online support and supplements the traditional direct healthcare available from physicians and hospitals.

SNORING, WHY SURGERY CAN BE A BAD IDEA

One of the nicest things about living in the 21st century is the amount of surgical options available to more people, including more and more people in the developing world (though, obviously, not enough). Quite sincerely, countless numbers of lives have been outright saved, or inestimably improved, due to surgery. I doubt you'd find anyone who would absolutely conclude that surgery, as a concept, is a mistake; or that we should long for pre-surgery days, where infections and ailments so ...

New Age Self Care

The current health care crisis in the United States is the result of compound errors. The first, not understanding that what we call health care is not health care at all. It is actually a disease management system that treats symptoms and ignores causes, which remain unknown to the 20th Century medical establishment. In other words, medicine is not about health, it is about disease, or the absence of health. Most often, if disease is cured at all, and it usually is not, health is not a result ...
