Health: We agree that if something works, it is adopted by the mainstream.
For cures not involving surgery, drugs, etc., you (I assume you are part of the mainstream) fall short. If the same effort made in pushing diabetes treatments such as drugs or injections was made to tell patients to lose weight and exercise (e.g. here are some pills, they really don’t work all that well – if you don’t want to die a horrible death you have to lose half you body weight and spend at least an thirty minutes a day working out), it would be effective. Note how health care plans pay for “Janumet” but not for exercise. I suspect most doctors have long since concluded that most patients won’t listen if told to radically lose weight and exercise, and go to “Plan B” (medication).
