![More and more people are rejecting their doctorÂ’s advice, pharmaceutical drugs, hospitalization, and surgery. They simply donÂ’t trust the system anymore and realize that the profit motive, the merchandising of medical services, and the unwillingness of many doctors to open their minds are informing too many disastrous medical decisions. These progressive patients are taking control of their health and looking for their own cures.
Award-winning BBC filmmaker Len Richmond interviews survivors of cancer, AIDS, and other life-threatening illnesses, who, after being given a death sentence by conventional doctors, went on to heal themselves solely with natural means (herbs, diet, etc). Len also speaks to renegade medical doctors, Ayurvedic healers, and Chinese herbalists who firmly believe that there is another way, a better way.
Certain to be attacked by the medical establishment and pharmaceutical interests, “Everything Bad is Good” is a daring work of art and revolution.
Filmmaker: Len Richmond Country: USA 2009 Running Time: 60 minutes Language: English Not Rated
"Everything Bad is Good” is very, very, moving, and very, very true. The system is corrupt and the present template of treating cancer is a dismal failure. It is all about nutrition, eliminating stress, eliminating chemicals, detoxing the body, and most of all eliminating pharmaceutical drugs. Len Richmond’s film is noble and important. If enough of us yell about this and create grassroots movement, things can turn around. Otherwise the slow poisoning of ‘us’ will truly be the end of mankind. -Suzanne Somers, actress and author
