CMO – MODERN MIRACLE AGAINST ARTHRITIS?
The cure for arthritis – you’d think we were after the holy grail or something. It seemed so incredibly difficult and elusive. After all, medical science has been searching for it for centuries with nothing more to show than a few pain relievers and anti-inflammatory drugs. Nothing before even came close to being a cure.
Medical professionals are loathe to use the word miracle in the face of the most miraculous of circumstances. Nevertheless, the word keeps cropping up in physicians’ reports about CMO. Dr. William C. Douglas titled his article A New “Miracle Cure” for Arthritis in the newsletter Second Opinion. Dr. Douglas Hunt used the word in his book Boom You ‘re Well. And patients call it miraculous all the time. Even medical doctors who’ve sought relief from their own pain and suffering through various other remedies have used the expression liberally.
It’s no wonder, for there have been virtually no truly significant advances in the treatment of arthritis since the times when people were chewing on willow tree bark to suck out its aspirin, or later the synthesis of aspirin by the German chemist Felix Hoffman in 1893. Medical science has made virtually no progress in the treatment of arthritis in over a hundred years. Pain killers and anti-inflammatory drugs are all we’ve had, and those just try to help relieve the symptoms. There’s been absolutely nothing to treat the cause of arthritis. That is, not until now.
