Dr. Mercola is on the cutting edge of Alternative Medicine. Everything that he has been advocating ever since he has been posting on his website has been to keep traditional medicine on its heels. The fact is that traditional medicine has been a captive of the mega pharmaceutical industries and most doctors are nothing but drug pushers for big pharma. Dr. Mercola gives you an alternative. Instead of always submitting to your GP for a a totally useless or at worst a detrimental prescription you can choose supplements and vitamins that can maximize your immune system. I have a friend wo has been taking Dr, Mercola supplements for the last 20 years. He just celebrated his 100th birthday. He had 2 younger brothers who died in their 80s and who never listened to his advice. Follow Dr. Mercola and you have a chance of living to 100 and beyond.
