The U.S. healthcare system was shaped by powerful corporate and pharmaceutical interests, starting with the Flexner Report (backed by Carnegie and Rockefeller foundations). This moved medicine from a diverse, natural-healing system toward a drug-centered, profit-driven monopoly.
Homeopathy, naturopathy, nutritional therapies, and other alternatives were pushed out of mainstream medical education and insurance coverage in favor of pharmaceuticals, with the AMA acting as the system’s gatekeeper. Doctors are incentivized to follow drug protocols for legal protection, and scientific journals/research are swayed by industry interests.
Modern medicine’s war on cholesterol is critiqued: cholesterol is essential for health, but the narrative of “bad cholesterol” led to the widespread use of statins, which have limited benefit and may harm metabolic, hormonal, and cognitive health. Lowering cholesterol to artificial standards expands markets for these drugs.
Chronic disease is rising, driven not by genetics but by nutrient-depleted foods (caused by industrial agriculture, glyphosate, processed food), environmental toxins, and a focus on symptom management instead of root-cause healing.
Water fluoridation is described as a repurposing of industrial waste that may harm neurodevelopment and thyroid function, with its safety shielded by professional and industrial alliances.
The article disputes the mainstream cancer approach—emphasizing that restoring healthy metabolic function (not cutting glucose) is key, and critiques issues around the ketogenic diet and mitochondrial health.
The core message: true health is achieved by restoring fundamental inputs (minerals, real food, clean water, movement, rest, community) and removing toxic interferences. The medical system is designed primarily to manage, not cure, chronic disease, and individuals have the power to reclaim their health through informed choices and natural approaches, bypassing dependency on pharmaceuticals and institutional control. Censorship of alternative strategies is common, but the greatest threat to the medical system is the educated, self-reliant individual.
The documentary reveals the shift from natural and traditional healing to a pharmaceutical, profit-driven model, starting with the Flexner Report backed by Carnegie and Rockefeller interests.
Entire healing systems (homeopathy, naturopathy, nutritional therapy) were sidelined, and the American Medical Association became the regulatory gatekeeper.
Medical education, insurance, and research journals were steered toward drug-centered solutions, suppressing alternative therapies.
The documentary critiques the war on cholesterol, arguing cholesterol is vital for health, and statins offer limited benefits but significant risks. Lowering cholesterol guidelines expanded the statin market.
Industrial agriculture and chemical exposure (glyphosate in GM crops, processed foods) have depleted nutrients from food, raising chronic disease rates.
Water fluoridation is described as the repurposing of industrial chemical waste, linked to toxic effects but shielded from scrutiny by industry-professional alliances.
Cancer outcomes are stagnant, and the film explores metabolic therapies (like ketogenic diets) as alternatives, but notes controversies around their effectiveness and safety.
The core message is that individuals have the power to restore health by eliminating toxins, returning to nutrient-rich food, and focusing on foundational wellness factors—rather than relying on drugs or institutional solutions.
The documentary urges viewers to become informed, self-reliant, and less dependent on the current health system, which it claims is maintained by corporate and institutional interests.
