Are you old enough to remember when a large segment of the population still lived in rural communities, not in large cities? Back in the 1960's about 40% of the population lived in rural areas while the other 60% was urbanized. Today almost 85% of the population lives in cities.
Along with the move to cities comes the tendency to do less for ourselves and rely more on various "experts," especially in the field of health care. Today, many parents head to the doctor or emergency room for small injuries and common ailments. Maybe it's because these services are so convenient that we've forgotten it's possible to care for many of these problems ourselves, very simply, very effectively.
Our current health care system is faltering in many ways. Most patients aren't getting the true support they need, and most doctors and nurses are frustrated with the way patients retaliate. Insurance is a dirty word on both sides as it doesn't provide what the insured wants, and doctors are required to spend so much time and expense to process claims. Drugs are being approved much too quickly, only to find out after many deaths or damages that they should not have been approved at all.
It wasn't long ago that homes had an Herbal Medicine Chest. A place where simple remedies were kept for the treatment of many common ailments within the home. Read how to create one for your home.
