The more I find out about doctors and the medical system, the lower my opinion is. They can't diagnose the simplest things. They look at you like you're a crazy person when you tell them you fast to lose weight.
The alternative information sphere (podcasters, bloggers, writers) have all been for years discovering things are opposite to what the medical establishment says. It's like two different realities. Sportsmen and MMA fighters do one thing, doctors the other.

Basically they should be considered a cynical cartel with malicious intent, the way Hollywood and Washington D.C. are. And as much at the top (Big Pharma) as at the bottom (doctors and nurses).
As usual we see misaligned incentives. If a sector profits from suffering, it tends to perpetuate it.
