The Future
As people (doctors included) gradually begin to realise that they have been misled in many ways in the past and that they are quite capable of taking control of their own health, the need for traditional medical services should decrease. Accessibility of information through the Internet with be a key factor in this trend.

The Internet revolution has only just commenced, and over the next thirty years will see changes in our lives more significant than the Industrial Revolution of the 18th century.

• There will be a much greater awareness of how commercial food suppliers are damaging our bodies and there will be a consumer reaction against many of their practices. Many suppliers are already starting to capitalise on this trend themselves. For those who don't, Governments will take a much greater interest in the quality of foods supplied and the accuracy of advertising. Many of the products which are harmful, eg, softdrinks and products with artificial preservatives, will eventually have health warnings like cigarettes do now.
• Western governments will have realised that their health care dollars could be much better spent on education and prevention, rather than on expensive treatments after the event, many of which are the result of people unwittingly inflicting the problems on themselves. If education can take the word "unwittingly" out of the above sentence why then should the rest of the population have to finance the cost of treatment in those situations? This includes treatment for smokers for will need to accept more and more responsibility for the results of their own actions.
• The need for hospitals, and traditional doctors and specialists, will have decreased and there will be a whole new generation of doctors who specialise in prevention rather than cure. Also, many people will be consulting medical specialists on the Internet rather than face to face.
• Western governments will have banned amalgam fillings and root canal fillings. The dental profession will be given no choice but to start accepting some responsibility for the total health of the patient, rather than ignoring these issues for their own convenience and fear of litigation. The potential for class action against the dental profession, knowing what is now known, is enormous.
• The average life span of people will have increased significantly, both as a result of advances in western medicine repairing the self inflicted damage and more people taking control of their own health as advocated in this web site.
• People will generally be in a better state of health in their middle age and old age as a result of the better health education they received in their younger years.
• The normal retiring age will have increased as people will be able to live and work much longer, and the working community will not be able to afford to carry older people who are quite fit and healthy enough to keep looking after themselves.

These changes will be driven by the younger generation who have the self assurance and access to knowledge that many of the older generation didn't have. No longer will they feel bound to accept the advice of people who know little about disease prevention and healing, and blindly allow them to poison and maim their bodies in the name of science. Young people today want to know why, and understand why, and this trend will develop further over the next thirty years.

Fortunately there is a new generation of medical specialists who are also realising this and are taking appropriate steps to realign their thinking and keep up with this trend.
