Human Health And Disease (Don't Ignore Signs and Symptoms)
Health versus disease coming right up.
Hey I'm Dr. Ekberg with Wellness For Life and if you'd like to truly master
health by understanding how the body really works make sure that you
subscribe and hit that notification bell so that you don't miss anything. As a
society we don't understand really the very basics of what health and disease
is so I'd like to take a few minutes and share something that we do in the office
as part of our health seminar. And it's an analogy with a car instrument panel
So most people come into our office because they have some sort of pain and
they hurt in the shoulder they hurt and the neck and they think that the problem
is in the neck or the shoulder. What we try to tell them is that the symptom is
not the problem. The symptom is there because there's something that isn't
working right. And rather than treating the shoulder or the neck we need to
treat the thing that isn't working we need to restore that function and even
though that's such a simple concept we've been conditioned to the opposite
for so long that it's hard to grasp sometimes so an analogy I like to use is
that of driving in a car you're driving down the highway and you're making good
speed and the car is humming along and then all of a sudden you get a message
you get a warning signal and a warning signal is kind of like a symptom it's
not the problem it's trying to tell you of a problem
okay and this particular signal tells us that if we don't fill up gas we're not
going to go very far so the signal is telling us something about something
else just like a symptom in the body does and if we have more signals more
messages come on then we know that there are more things that need attention
we get more information there's more things to take care of I always ask how
many people think that this would be a good idea duct tape a handy man's
solution now we can't see the signal telling us of the problems so the
problem must be gone right not really everyone laughs at this because they see
the absurdity in covering up signals and it's equally absurd to cover up symptoms
because if you cover up the symptom you're allowing the problem to get worse
so let's say that you think the tape is a good idea and you keep driving and
your car comes to a grinding halt and you say darn it that was bad luck next
time you get some warning signals you say hey last time was probably just bad
luck let me try it again so you cover it up again and you say darn it the car
crashed again so let's say you were really really stubborn you weren't so
bright that you try that a thousand times how many times do you think that
the car would spontaneously fill up on gas and get better correct zero a
thousand times out of a thousand the problem would get worse until it didn't
work at all anymore well the moral of the story is the
body works kind of the same way when we cover up symptoms we are allowing the
problem to get worse so if you get this saying you've gotten... you understand a
lot you cannot create health by covering up symptoms anymore than you can
brighten a room by covering up the darkness think about it how would that
work can you it's awfully dark in here let me
cover up the darkness and make it light it's not gonna work why because light
has certain properties health has certain properties light is measurable
it has energy frequency and vibration all of those can be measured and
quantified they exist darkness however is the absence of energy frequency
vibration darkness can't be measured it only exists as the absence of light and
health and disease are the exact same thing that health is when we have
sufficient function energy frequency and vibration the body is energy frequency
and vibration the body is also self-correcting and self-healing so if
we have sufficient energy frequency and vibration the body will take those
resources and create homeostasis or balance or health if we don't have
sufficient resources there is the absence of the measurable things the
absence of the function and disease is the result but disease doesn't really
exist just like darkness disease is only the absence of the proper function it
doesn't exist as a real entity and yet we have 40 50 thousand labels of disease
and we try to treat the disease and in doing that we always make it worse
because the problem is lack of proper energy frequency and vibration the
problem is lack of sufficient resources and of course there's some toxicity and
interference as well so I hope this helps give you a different picture on
what health is what life is how the body really works and understand that there
is a time and a place for medical care that's called a crisis a
life-threatening crisis but for the most part the thing that they call disease is
a lack of appropriate function and the only goal in health care is to restore
that appropriate function is our only goal return to normal and the body will
do the rest if you enjoy this kind of content make sure that you subscribe and

and above all please share this information because there are millions
of people dying and there's trillions of dollars being spent and there's needless
suffering going on because people don't understand these very very basic things
thanks for watching
