If you are well educated, and especially if you are a health professional, you will have to unlearn much of what you've been taught and start afresh with the rather disruptive thought that natural healing may actually work.

More quotes by Andrew Saul
I believe that alternative healing methods are much more than just temporary or half measures.
Andrew Saul
Use vitamins in place of drugs. This takes some moxie to do, for we have been taught to be consumers of medicine. We have been taught that anything cheap and safe cannot possibly be effective.
Andrew Saul
If you want to be productive, follow leads and dig. Whether it is for oil, gold or information, it requires action - your action. Question authority. Do it yourself.
Andrew Saul
Self-care means accepting some risk, and accepting much responsibility. It is not for all people or all cases.
Andrew Saul
It's unreasonable to expect medical doctors and pharmaceutical companies to tell you how to avoid their services by trying the alternatives.
Andrew Saul
No person knows your body better than you. The world's most sophisticated and sensitive diagnostic apparatus is your own body's feelings.
Andrew Saul
If you have never tried a plant-based diet, start. If you've never juiced vegetables, start. If you've never taken vitamin C to saturation, start. If you have never done a half-hour fitness workout each day, start. But, there is no such thing as a free lunch, a quick fix or a magic wand to cure illness.
Andrew Saul
Andrew Saul is John Hall in a business suit. He's wrong on the war, on national security, immigration, abortion. He's Sue Kelly all over again.
Andrew Saul
Medicine is aptly described as an art, not a science. To this end, four different doctors may have up to four different diagnoses or prescriptions.
Andrew Saul
We need total health more than medically approved health. Our wellness should not be limited to our doctor's experience, but enhanced by our own experience.
Andrew Saul
We can take more time and interest, and give more attention to our personal health than a hired professional can. We have learned to go get medical help, not to give it. We have learned to relay our body's needs to another, not to provide them ourselves.
Andrew Saul
Most medical personnel remain largely unfamiliar with non-medical treatments, and tend to dismiss them without knowing about what they're dismissing. This is a great loss to the doctor as well as to the public.
Andrew Saul
A hospital patient can expect one medical error every single day of any hospital stay. Malpractice suits are numerous enough that one may reasonably conclude that there is certainly no guarantee of proper health care by contracting it out.
Andrew Saul
Healing is too big a topic for any one person to know it all.
Andrew Saul
Change your life. If you want to get better, that is what you have to do.
Andrew Saul
he very word patient implies passivity and powerlessness. Me-teacher-you-dumbbell, or me-doctor-you-patient, or me-politician-you-voter, or any other paternalistic or maternalistic stay-in-your-place tradition will not pass muster with me.
Andrew Saul
I wish there were easy answers to people's health questions. There aren't. There are answers, all right, but they are not easy.
Andrew Saul
Doctors frequently get it wrong. One out of five patients today is in the hospital because incorrect treatment by a physician put him or her there.
Andrew Saul
If you are not highly educated, you will need to abandon your anxiety and fear of reading and doing research.
Andrew Saul
Much of the fear of doing something wrong vanishes when we are knowledgeable about what we are doing.
