Latest / Cultural Wars | America Out Loud News / Medical research is captured across all sides
Transcript
- 0:47Hello everyone and welcome to another episode of Unity Without Compromise.
- 0:52This is Dr.
- 0:53Steve Letulp, and as you probably have figured out, I like to speak the truth plainly, and I don't shy away from the controversial issues.
- 1:07And today I'll just be honest, I've got a very controversial issue to discuss with you.
- 1:12I want to share it because I think it has huge repercussions.
- 1:17And that is that the right, not just the left wing nut jobs, but the right is also guilty of captured medical research and publication.
- 1:30Now, let's get into it.
- 1:32Distortion of truth is almost never an accident.
- 1:38You know, think about everything that happened through the COVID-19 so-called pandemic, the man-made plandemic.
- 1:45Well, it takes a lot of intelligence and devotion and intensive planning, and uh sometimes decades, absolutely decades of indoctrination to deftly execute a deceptive plan.
- 2:02And in medicine, such a plan was implemented so skillfully that few even raised an eyebrow.
- 2:12And I want to expose this today in no uncertain terms.
- 2:17Many who have bought into the capture, many unwitting perpetrators of this scheme do not even recognize how they are participating in committing a crime against humanity, all in the name of science.
- 2:37And it's got to change.
- 2:39It includes both the right and the left.
- 2:43The scheme is a mere illusion of science.
- 2:47It's a powerful ploy that serves something other than public health and the good of humanity.
- 2:56Which is what I believe medicine is all about, isn't it?
- 3:00Meanwhile, meaningful and useful science is censored, it is canceled, or it is simply ignored.
- 3:11And this defines capture.
- 3:14It always leads to unnecessary human suffering.
- 3:19And that is exactly why it is worth fighting to change.
- 3:25But change never comes easily.
- 3:28I'll admit that.
- 3:30Especially when the capture of medicine extends from one end of the spectrum to the other, from the most liberal to the most conservative, conservative medical doctors, medical professionals, researchers.
- 3:48Now, I didn't fully appreciate this fact until I recently tested it by submitting an op-ed to two medical journals.
- 3:59Number one, the New England Journal of Medicine, which of course is on the very liberal end of the spectrum, but I also submitted an article or to the Journal of the American Physicians and Surgeons, which is on the opposite, conservative end of the spectrum.
- 4:20The title of my article was evaluating the implications of captured medical research and publication.
- 4:30Now, most of the colleagues that I rub elbows with would agree without any hesitation that the New England Journal of Medicine is woke and captured by big pharma.
- 4:43No doubt about that.
- 4:45No doubt whatsoever.
- 4:48But most of those people that I associate and affiliate with would also agree that the association of American physicians and surgeons is not guilty of capture.
- 5:04Myself included, until this submission.
- 5:14It just means op-ed just means opposite to the editorial page.
- 5:20In other words, it is an independent opinion piece that does not necessarily align with the official position of the journal.
- 5:31So that's why they call it op-ed.
- 5:33It is not a defense of research data.
- 5:36It is not a research paper, if you will.
- 5:39It's not a defense of a scientific, you know, doctoral dissertation, but rather it's just a topic discussed that is relevant to the target audience, to those who are likely to read the journals.
- 5:55So I want you to keep that in mind as I proceed, because it has significance.
- 6:01Now, it came to me as no surprise that the New England Journal of Medicine rejected my query.
- 6:16Well, guess what?
- 6:17New England Journal is captured.
- 6:19They are fully implicated, they know that they are guilty.
- 6:22There's no way they're going to allow an op-ed for the uh to be published in their journal on that topic.
- 6:28And you know what?
- 6:29I expected that fully.
- 6:31No surprise whatsoever.
- 6:34The chief editor for the Journal of American Physicians and Surgeons, Dr.
- 6:39Lawrence Huntoon, accepted my query and said that he was looking forward to reading the article.
- 6:46And you know, that that got me excited.
- 6:48So I actually wrote the article and I submitted it for publication.
- 6:53Well, he rejected it without explanation.
- 6:57And so I kind of, you know, stewed on this for a couple of weeks, I think it was, and I thought, well, I wonder.
- 7:04He never gave me any answer whatsoever about why he rejected it.
- 7:08And frankly, I was a little surprised, but there was something gnawing in the back of my mind that said, you know, they just might reject this.
- 7:19Well, after about two weeks, I decided I was going to do a radio show, this radio show on that topic.
- 7:28And I thought, you know, I don't want to just discuss this in the blind and talk about my encounter with the Journal of the American physicians and surgeons.
- 7:39And so I asked Dr.
- 7:40Huntoon for some feedback.
- 7:42I said, hey, you know, I don't want to be speculating on the reasons why you rejected my paper.
- 7:49And so I actually invited him to be a guest on my radio show, and he did not accept that, but he did offer feedback, and I greatly appreciated it because it shed a whole lot of light on the very problem that I was trying to convey in my 3800-word article.
- 8:11So let me just share with you the content of that article.
- 8:16In the introduction, I said, you know, maybe we need to be reminded of the most basic definition of science, which I'll define it as the art and skill of gaining knowledge by observing the way things are in our natural world, and then harnessing it.
- 8:36Pseudoscience, in contrast, is the misrepresentation of the data we investigate.
- 8:44For example, take the topic of evolution versus creation.
- 8:47Now, here we have all the same data.
- 8:50We have the same world, the same universe, the same evidence for what has transpired throughout man-made history since the earth came into existence.
- 9:00However, you want to believe it.
- 9:02These are two theories, the theory of evolution, the theory of creation.
- 9:09But one theory is taught as fact, as if it were a law of science and not a theory.
- 9:17The other theory is taught as naive sophistry, foolishness.
- 9:25They ridicule the creation scientists.
- 9:27And that is absolute proof that bias ultimately rules the day in scientific research.
- 9:35Because it's supposed to be neutral.
- 9:38It's supposed to be open-minded, it's supposed to be forever questioned.
- 9:44Well, if you go back through history, you'll find that we have actually been affronted with a long history of capture in medical research, even before it was formalized officially.
- 10:00Many people whose right theories were ignored or ridiculed by peers and colleagues has been the norm for hundreds and thousands of years.
- 10:15And guess what?
- 10:17To this day, science is still betrayed in modern research and publication.
- 10:25And I'll explain what I mean by that.
- 10:28In fact, I discussed in my article what constitutes valid medical research.
- 10:35I discussed how the hierarchy of medical evidence, also known as the evidence pyramid, is considered sacred in evidence-based medicine, which sounds so good.
- 10:49And I also showed how evidence-based medicine has grossly failed us at both ends of the spectrum, liberal and conservative.
- 11:02For example, e-clinical medicine is a Lancet medical journal subsidiary.
- 11:09And Lancer is, you know, considered a highly reputable one of the best medical journals out there.
- 11:15Well, the e-clinical medicine reported in an article, a quote, moderate to very low certainty evidence in a systematic review, which is the top of the hierarchy of evidence pyramid, their findings that suggest gender affirming care may improve quality of life, stigma, utilization of health services, and mental health.
- 11:47Now that is just absolutely ridiculous, but that was a systematic review, which is supposedly the absolutely best evidence to defend someone's thesis, someone's idea or proposal of a new theory or whatever.
- 12:03So the Lancet is saying, hey, you know, we really go for this gender affirming care, and it's nothing, you know, related to medical care.
- 12:13It is pure mutilated or mutilation and abuse of uh of children of people who have been confused and controlled by this very system that is leading them to want to think that a male can become a female.
- 12:32And the Lancet buys into this fully.
- 12:35And so they present a systematic review.
- 12:38Oh, best evidence, best evidence, and yet they say they reported a moderate to very low certainty evidence, and they still affirm the lies of improved quality of life and mental health.
- 12:52You know, transgenders uh have something like a 26-fold increased risk of suicide.
- 13:00That is not mental health, but they claim it.
- 13:03Well, how do you explain that?
- 13:05Well, think money, because they are completely captured by big pharma.
- 13:10But they are one of the top rated medical journals.
- 13:15Okay, on the other end of the spectrum, and a while ago in the mid-1800s, there was a physician named Igna Semelweiss, and he observed that hand washing with chlorinated lime had a good effect.
- 13:34It significantly reduced puerperal or childbed fever.
- 13:39And he was noticing that uh, you know, if we could get the doctors who were working on the dead bodies and gross anatomy, uh, if they just wash their hands before going from the anatomy lab to a delivery of a child, then the children and the mothers died a whole lot less often.
- 14:02But according to the evidence hierarchy, Sema Weiss's anecdotal evidence, which is what they call it, ranks at the bottom of the pyramid, meaning that it's almost almost worthless.
- 14:17It is totally biased.
- 14:19Well, Semra Weiss was literally factually ridiculed to death by his peers for his observation.
- 14:32Well, decades later, Joseph Lister, who died in 1912, and who was dubbed the father of modern antisepsis, had a whole lot of praise for Samuel Weiss's contribution that actually changed the entire practice of medicine.
- 14:54So I pointed that out just to show the contrast.
- 14:58Here's someone who presents data from the bottom of the pyramid.
- 15:03Hey, you know, I just noticed that the doctors with contaminated hands from the dead bodies that were infected with all kinds of stuff that were decomposing, um, they go right to a delivery, and the moms and the babies seem to get infected a whole lot more than the nurse midwives who were delivering babies but not dissecting dead humans, uh, they didn't have the same amount of problems with infection.
- 15:35So he said, hey, maybe they ought to wash their hands.
- 15:38Now that's just anecdotal evidence, and so he suggested, okay, let's test it.
- 15:43And this is just by, you know, this is called clinical observation, and um, and so he started saying, let's put this to the test and see if my theory is right.
- 15:54If you wash the hands, um, do people get the women in childbirth get less infected?
- 16:01And he said, you know what?
- 16:04I see all kinds of evidence for this.
- 16:06Well, his peers and colleagues absolutely mocked him, and as I said, he died a ridiculed man who actually died from a uh sepsis, an infection, and after he was placed in an institution, because it literally drove him crazy that they wouldn't listen to him.
- 16:24And you know what?
- 16:25I kind of can identify with that.
- 16:28But um, from there, in the paper, I just made a case in point, which was my central pain theory.
- 16:36I said, you know what?
- 16:37My theory of limbic inflammation, which is a mechanism that I proposed that seemed to explain central pain theory, which current medical dogma calls incurable, by the way.
- 16:52So since this was an op-ed, an opinion piece, right?
- 16:57I only briefly summarized my hypothesis of the central pain pathway because that was not the purpose of my article.
- 17:06And op-ed, as I said, is not a defense of a doctoral dissertation.
- 17:11It's just a discussion on something.
- 17:14But it was based on my clinical data, which supported my theory very strongly.
- 17:23Now, what was I supposed to do?
- 17:27Uh, because if I follow the rules, the guidelines of medical research, then I had to give placebos to some of my ailing patients.
- 17:35Now, of course, that is unethical, and I would have been sued.
- 17:40I would have had to somehow set up a study.
- 17:42I would have, they would expect me to drop my medical practice to pursue a PhD in neuroscience so that I could write and defend my thesis on limbic inflammation.
- 17:53Now, that is impossible, impractical in a busy medical practice.
- 17:59So, what should a clinician do?
- 18:02Well, it should be unnecessary that I need to give up my practice and pursue a doctorate because I discovered something.
- 18:11So, what I did is I cited my attempts to get my theory published in any form that I possibly could.
- 18:20And I gave a specific example of correspondence with the chief editor of practical pain management journal, which has now been archived in Med Central since 2023.
- 18:32So if you want to find it, you'd have to go to that med-central uh journal.
- 18:37Now, I could not even get the easiest kind of thing published called case studies.
- 18:44I couldn't get a case study published, which is the first step in introducing and promoting a new idea, oftentimes.
- 18:52See, medical publications are captured.
- 18:57All of them are captured.
- 19:00And this exposes the problem that all medical pioneers face in the crucial step of introducing new theories that may profoundly enhance people's physical and mental health.
- 19:16What I'm saying is I was unable to publish even compelling clinical case studies that substantiated my theory.
- 19:28Now, why is that?
- 19:30Well, for one thing, the case studies, their value is way underestimated.
- 19:37But here's the real kicker.
- 19:40When I talked to other researchers about this problem, hey, how do I get published?
- 19:44How do I get this information disseminated?
- 19:48Because I think I've come upon something really big here.
- 19:52Well, multiple prominent medical researchers advise me that the only way around this brick wall barrier.
- 20:00Of medical journal publication was to self-publish.
- 20:04And so I did that.
- 20:06But do you think I could ever get editor in chief Lawrence Huntoon to read my book?
- 20:14Not a chance.
- 20:16Nor likely any editor from any other medical journal.
- 20:21And so the problem of medical capture remains.
- 20:27The current system of research guidelines and publications has become tainted.
- 20:36When editors and peer reviewers pretend to defend sound medical research, but intellectually capture it, then they aren't the devil's advocate, but they are the devil's accomplice.
- 20:55Scientific progress is crippled by these well-intentioned dragons.
- 21:02And this system needs to change.
- 21:05And I stated my point in the article that I submitted very clearly.
- 21:09I said the fact that institutional capture leads to psychological capture, and it has plagued us for millennia, argues against a resolution.
- 21:21In other words, you know, what's my chances of fixing this problem?
- 21:26But I said, let me try anyways.
- 21:28And so I proposed a model for liberating captives of medical research and publication.
- 21:36So here's an idea that I throw out, and this is the very purpose of an op-ed.
- 21:41Say, hey, look, I got an idea here.
- 21:43I see a problem.
- 21:45I have actually experienced the brunt of this problem.
- 21:50How do we get around that?
- 21:51Let me suggest something to you.
- 21:53Would you think about this?
- 21:54Let me toss this out there for your readers, right?
- 21:57That's what an op-ed is.
- 21:59And so I had a three-step plan, and I said, number one, let's strengthen the concept of anecdotal evidence.
- 22:09When that evidence is multiplied in the spirit of SEMOWISE.
- 22:14In other words, how many affirming similar case studies do I need to present, you know, before a new theory is deemed worthy of further investigation and getting a hearing?
- 22:30Is it still just considered all personal bias, you know, selfish gain or whatever?
- 22:37Or, you know, at what point, how many case studies do I need before all of a sudden they become impactful?
- 22:45Meaning, if I heal patient after patient after patient based on my proposed mechanism of a central pain, and I have complete success, you know, at what point?
- 23:00How many case studies do I need to say, hey, I think I'm on to something here?
- 23:07So, you know, I'm trying to get a way around the system.
- 23:12Number two, I suggested, hey, let's introduce a triple blind approach.
- 23:18Now, there's been the word triple blind approach is already in the medical literature, uh, but it can mean something else.
- 23:25But let's introduce a triple blind approach to a merit-based publication.
- 23:31Well, Dr.
- 23:32Huntoon had a real problem with this one, and I get it, I really understand it.
- 23:38But let's let's put it into perspective.
- 23:42Few people question the double blinding of peers and authors, although both peer and author quality are dependent upon adherence to their own personal moral and ethical guidelines, and that's a well-known and widespread problem.
- 24:04I mean, who trusts the CDC authors and editors and peers?
- 24:10I don't.
- 24:12So my intent of also initiating blinding the investigative method, just at the introduction, initially, to throw it out there.
- 24:24I was just throwing it out there for consideration, was to give a voice to those busy physicians like myself, who may have discovered something of value, but have not the time, resources, or opportunity to be given a platform to be heard.
- 24:47In the case of central pain theory, this could impact millions of people around the planet who are needlessly suffering because the current party line that they seem hell-bent on protecting, and that party line is that fibromyalgia, irritable bowel syndrome, and other central pain syndromes are incurable.
- 25:15Well, how do I get around that if they just keep turning me away, saying, no, no, no?
- 25:20No, no, no.
- 25:21You have no proof of that.
- 25:23Well, yes, I do have proof for that, but you won't let me expose my proof, which I did in my book.
- 25:30But what's the real issue here?
- 25:32Well, the real issue is suffering people.
- 25:38People are suffering.
- 25:41And if I treated in my busy clinical practice, I actually said, you know what?
- 25:47I think I got this figured out, and based on my theory, which I tested by treating patients, they were healed.
- 26:02Their pain went away.
- 26:06They eventually stopped all their medications and their pain stayed away.
- 26:15And it corroborated my understanding of the mechanism for central pain, then maybe just maybe I'm on to something.
- 26:30We have thousands less, thousands fewer people who have central pain now because I treated them and they have had no relapses.
- 26:41They are healed, they are cured of their central pain.
- 26:46So let's keep in mind the real issue is suffering people.
- 26:53And that is my motive for putting forth an idea just to get us thinking, saying, hey, what are we doing here?
- 27:04How many more decades are we going to go on saying that central pain is incurable?
- 27:10If you have bladder pain syndrome, female pelvic pain, and any of these other terrible pain syndromes, phantom limb pain syndrome, complex regional pain syndrome.
- 27:27How many more decades are you going to have to suffer because they're telling you it's incurable when there's a doctor who's saying no, no, it's not incurable.
- 27:35I have cured it.
- 27:37See, the whole issue is suffering people.
- 27:41Now that in my mind should be an incentive to say, you know, something is wrong with the system here.
- 27:48Let's figure it out.
- 27:50Let's try to overcome it so that we can have fewer suffering people.
- 27:57Life is hard enough.
- 28:00And that was my motive for putting forth an idea just to get us thinking.
- 28:07Am I bemoaning the fact that busy clinicians have no hope of a chance to reveal their own conclusions based on reproducible clinical observations and data that is erroneously pre-labeled as riddled with bias and self-serving?
- 28:32Well, Dr.
- 28:33Hantoon, editor-in-chief of the Journal of American Physicians and Surgeons says, yes, that's right.
- 28:43And he told me in so many words, stop whining, stop your whining, get over it, do things the right way.
- 28:54Well, does anyone see the problem here?
- 28:58Or should I just shut my trap and go fishing?
- 29:01Yeah, maybe just go fishing, right?
- 29:04But isn't presenting alternative thinking the very purpose of an op-ed?
- 29:13Well, not in a captured world, it's not, apparently.
- 29:20Well, my third step in this new model to overcome the obstacles of publication and research was to establish a symposium for new medical theories and ideas.
- 29:37And that's why I suggested the triple blind, saying let's blind the method of research, let's blind, you know, the uh triple minded, blind everybody so that we are just presenting an idea in an open forum model so that people could evaluate.
- 30:00It's merit on its own.
- 30:03And I'm going to discuss that in further length and detail after a short pause.

- 33:44Now I'll tell you this, a lot of people are going who may find it just a little bit of a burden for one reason or another to get there to fly on the airplanes and so forth.
- 33:58Well, I think a lot of the nonsense will be sorted out, but let me tell you that every one of us on the America Out Loud team are actually paying our own way because we are doing all we can to keep the cost down for this event.
- 34:13And yet, even for those of us who find it a bit of a financial burden, are deeming it so important to celebrate 250 years of liberty.
- 34:28Think of the price that so many former Americans have paid for the sake of your liberty and mine so that we can speak freely as I've been doing today and every time I come on this radio show.
- 34:43Think of the great life we have had in America.
- 34:48This is a time for us to get together and say, hey, we are the Brotherhood of Fellow Americans.
- 34:55So I really hope you'll consider joining us.
- 34:58It is something you won't want to miss.
- 35:01It is going to be a phenomenal celebration.
- 35:05You'll get to hear and see a lot of your favorite uh speakers and radio show hosts on America out loud.
- 35:14And we just look forward to an awesome time.
- 35:18Well, today I am practicing my First Amendment right, and I am boldly telling you that the right, not just the left, but the right also is guilty of captured medical research and publications.
- 35:34And that has huge consequences for us.
- 35:38It affects our mental health and our physical health.
- 35:43It sometimes determines whether or not you will live in a life of pain or not.
- 35:50Now, I submitted an article for publication to a liberal medical journal and to a conservative medical journal.
- 36:00And my submission in op-ed was rejected by both.
- 36:11And so I decided to do this radio show on the topic because I said, you know what?
- 36:16We got to get this information out.
- 36:19And so my stated point in the article was that this institutional capture, which leads to psychological capture, and uh has plagued us for millennia, and it is still a problem in the present day and age.
- 36:36And being one who just refuses to accept defeat, I say, look, let's try to change this.
- 36:42Let's do something good for the sake of all people for the sake of suffering.
- 36:48This is the very purpose, the very ministry of medical doctors, or at least it should be.
- 38:44You're gonna tell me that you're not going to even expose how you did it.
- 38:49Well, initially, because I want to do it in a different setting, and that is step three.
- 38:55Establish a symposium for new medical theories and ideas.
- 39:01And this is a crucial uh solution to overcoming capture.
- 39:10I want the world to know that calling central pain syndromes like fibromalgia incurable is utter nonsense.
- 39:20It is a myth based on faulty pseudoscience.
- 39:24It has to be because I cured thousands of central pain patients.
- 39:29They are pain free, drug free, and without relapses.
- 39:34Now, doesn't that at least suggest the possibility that my central pain pathway and theory of limbic inflammation could have merit?
- 39:47What is the establishment of so afraid of?
- 39:52Presenters of new theories and ideas should be afforded the opportunity to make their case in an open forum.
- 40:00That's what I'm suggesting.
- 40:01That's what I was trying to get across in the article.
- 40:05If an idea is deemed to have merit on its own, and the stakes are high, like offering healing to millions of pain sufferers, then a supposium styled presentation may immediately generate a springboard for further discussion and focused research.
- 40:26Now, isn't that the whole basis for sharing scientific information?
- 40:31Which tells us that a form of capture exists that we do not recognize.
- 40:39But don't take it from me, hear it from someone else.
- 40:42Dr.
- 40:42Randall Bach, who is a physician on the America Out Loud team actually recently wrote an article, and I will post this in the article with this radio show.
- 40:53And his article defines this type of capture really nicely, and he recognizes it as a restore as a recurring historical pattern.
- 41:02He quotes a hospitalist clinician named Anil Mockham, who regarded himself as quote, a healthy services outcome epidemiology researcher, quote, end quote.
- 41:15Meaning that he first observes something that happens in the clinic, and then he tests it against the literature.
- 41:23So he says, I'm not going to have any blind faith.
- 41:26And so Dr.
- 41:27Mockham states, quote, it's really my clinical intuition that drives all my impulses in my career.
- 41:34Now that instinct here, Search, does not replace evidence, but it shapes how the evidence is weighed and when it should be questioned, because there's a lot of so-called evidence out there that is utter nonsense.
- 41:48Such decision making isn't easy in modern medicine, he claims, because it's experts who wear the cloak of science of the science.
- 41:59It's equating published with reliable and peer-reviewed with settled.
- 42:06The issue is settled.
- 42:08He recognizes that the science does not exist.
- 42:12Science is never settled, it is never complete.
- 42:15It is ongoing.
- 42:16It is additive in knowledge, and it is modified as new observations are detailed and explained.
- 42:23That's science.
- 42:25He then goes on to explain intellectual conflicts of interest.
- 42:30I love the term, that are identity-based, meaning evidence that fits their dogma is amplified.
- 42:40Evidence that does not is managed or ignored.
- 42:44He then lays bare the architecture of even the most subtle forms of capture.
- 42:50Academic systems protect themselves, he says.
- 42:55Funding, reputation, and catch this one, internal cohesion depend on continuity.
- 43:03So when a challenge arises, it is often easier to exclude it than absorb it.
- 43:10That dynamic is not unique to medicine, but its consequences are more immediate, and I would add much more costly to patients.
- 43:21So then Dr.
- 43:22Bach just nails it when he says evidence-based medicine has been reduced in practice to guideline adherence.
- 43:33That simplification raises a baseline, but it narrows judgment.
- 43:40Mockham rejects that narrowing, says Dr.
- 43:44Bach.
- 43:44And you know what?
- 43:45So do I.
- 43:46I reject that narrowing by guideline adherence.
- 43:51So to overcome this friction against the flow, we have to find new ways around them.
- 43:57And to some extent, that's already happening.
- 44:00I mean, just as legacy media is absolutely losing its grip on the masses, right?
- 44:06Well, so it is with medical journals and publishing committees.
- 44:10They are losing their influence on clinicians who have not lost sight of their primary role as healers.
- 44:20Our purpose is to alleviate human suffering.
- 44:25As we have become increasingly guideline and trapped, the free expression of new ideas, beliefs, conjectures, and theories has diminished proportionally.
- 44:41We are being blocked from hearing new ideas in this scenario.
- 44:49And such constraints become paternalistic imposition, opposition, and they are counterproductive to fulfilling our highest calling, which is to heal the human mind and body.
- 45:08And this makes a compelling case, in my opinion, for my quest for an open symposium.
- 45:17How else can anyone support with evidence a new thesis derived from clinical accumulating?
- 45:28Meaning I see patients all day long and I see trends and patterns.
- 45:34I make observations, I test them, and then I try to heal them.
- 45:40Oh, if the healing works, I do it again, I repeat it.
- 45:44You know what that is called?
- 45:45It's called the scientific method.
- 45:49See, if a clinical outcome is repeatable, and if it fits a proposed model like my theory of limbic inflammation, and if it is clearly and repetitively favorable, the outcome, and backed by proof of healing, then why would it be rejected as quote, bad science, end quote?
- 46:20Why would the establishment gatekeepers accuse such clinicians of having no respect for the scientific method?
- 46:31This doesn't make sense to me.
- 46:33These accusations are nothing more than a circular argument to defend the failing status quo.
- 46:42And these accusers are guilty of playing identity politics in medicine.
- 46:53But they don't recognize it.
- 46:56I've said time and again on this show, deception is so dangerous because by definition, we just don't recognize when we are self-deceived.
- 47:09And because of that, I'm always questioning myself.
- 47:14Because of that, I asked Dr.
- 47:17Huntoon for feedback.
- 47:19I want to understand where he's coming from.
- 47:22I want to know how he thinks I'm out of line or errant in my thinking.
- 47:30Because I am a scientist.
- 47:32I was in a doctoral program in microbiology back when, before I became a medical doctor.
- 47:39I understand how medical research works, and I understand how research data is manipulated and twisted, distorted to secure a desired outcome.
- 47:55I saw it firsthand in my doctoral program in microbiology.
- 48:01It was one of the reasons that I got out of that medical research environment.
- 48:09You see, our accusers who are guilty of this form of identity politics and medicine, what are they saying?
- 48:18Well, in effect, they are saying, oh, you did not follow our recipe.
- 48:25Therefore, your assertions cannot possibly be true.
- 48:31They must be rejected or ignored.
- 48:35Damned to be all clinical acumen, all clinically retrieved data is worthless.
- 48:45However redundant and validating it might be of a theory.
- 48:51To the laboratory, you villain, no publishing for you.
- 48:56And that's what they are saying on the left and on the right.
- 49:02And this is wrong.
- 49:04This needs to be changed.
- 49:11Well, if I had played by their rules and followed their guidance, then the thousands of patients I healed of debilitating central pain, which are functional disorders, by the way, that have no positive diagnostic findings, they would still be enduring pain, hopelessly, and in complete despair.
- 49:39Some who were suicidal when they came to me because they'd been to every specialist in the area.
- 49:48Well, some of them would likely be dead.
- 49:52And that raises the question: how important are clinical outcomes?
- 50:00Compared to contriving laboratory rodent apparatus to prove a point or to validate a thesis.
- 50:11We need to rethink this.
- 50:14Well, I've yet to see if my self-publishing of the book on central pain will accomplish my stated goal of disseminating a hidden truth and springboarding more research, you can read that in my introduction.
- 50:31The book is pain free and living again how to heal fibromyalgia, IBS, migraines, and other mystery pain syndromes.
- 50:45I supported my data strongly in that book.
- 50:50I gave examples.
- 50:53And I believe I validated my thesis quite strongly.
- 50:58But will a self-published book take off?
- 51:03Will it change the myth that central pain is incurable?
- 51:08I don't know.
- 51:12I don't know.
- 51:13But I do know that meanwhile, I think it's very important to challenge every health care worker to never lose sight of the ministry of medicine to which we are called as healers.
- 51:37You know, think about it.
- 51:40Think about it from a God perspective.
- 51:44Because ultimately, that's what it all comes to.
- 51:47Because every medical healer fails.
- 51:50Every doctor ultimately fails because every patient ultimately dies.
- 51:58But in the end, what's in our heart will determine our eternal destiny.
- 52:06Eternal destiny.
- 52:09Now I'd like to think that what's in our heart could also shape the world in which we live.
- 52:18Make it a better place.
- 52:20Be it in medicine, education, economics, the labor force, foreign policy, even politics and government.
- 52:30Wouldn't that be nice?
- 52:32You know what?
- 52:33I'd like to have faith in medicine again.
- 52:37Because I don't, and I'm a physician, a medical doctor, an allopathic physician who was in the system previously, until I was canceled for speaking the truth and doing my job.
- 52:55But I would like to have faith in medicine again.
- 52:59I'd like to be able to trust the centers for disease control, right?
- 53:06And health and human services.
- 53:09But I don't trust them.
- 53:11I don't trust anything they publish.
- 53:14Not yet.
- 53:15We have not gotten rid of the deep state.
- 53:20And because I've exposed this problem of capture in medical research and publication, even by the so-called right-wing conservative, the good guys in medicine.
- 53:36You know, I don't regard them as enemies at all.
- 53:42But I just want to have faith in medicine again.
- 53:46And I do wish to thank Dr.
- 53:48Lawrence Huntoon for his feedback.
- 53:52Because in this day and age, you know, I think it takes courage to commit to say, here's where I stand, and I respect him for that.
- 54:01I believe Dr.
- 54:02Huntoon was very sincere, and I truly do appreciate his boldness in actually speaking his mind.
- 54:11That was refreshing.
- 54:14And the time that he took to participate in meaningful discussion was very valuable to me.
- 54:22It upped my respect for him.
- 54:24Now we obviously don't agree, but I believe he's a very good man.
- 54:29And the Association of American Physicians and Surgeons has been a great organization that has contended for always putting patients first.
- 54:42And I only wish that I had known about them much earlier in my medical career, because I was never introduced to them before.
- 54:51But their affiliates are good physicians, and I respect them greatly.
- 54:56So I want you to understand my position there.
- 55:02But human nature is what it is.
- 55:05People's sincerity, integrity, and authenticity usually go only so far.
- 55:12That's human nature.
- 55:14And that's why battles are lost.
- 55:16That's why medical progress is so slow.
- 55:20That's why people suffer unnecessarily.
- 55:24Now I am truly praying for an age of authenticity to follow the age of deception in which we currently live.
- 55:32But let's always remember that even the most sincere among us can be sincerely wrong.
- 55:41And if that includes me, then the best I can do is cry mercy.
- 55:46If we cannot break down the barrier of captured research and publication, then we must find a way to circumvent it.
- 55:55Meanwhile, the masses will suffer needlessly.
- 56:02As clinicians and healers, that understanding must forever be our chief motivator for change.
- 56:14Thank you so much for listening to me on Unity Without Compromise Today.
- 56:20Adieu.
