    I STARTED THIS PODCAST by reading the first half of my two books for you. These are Butchered by “Healthcare” and Hormone Secrets. In return for getting them free, please review them on Amazon! You will find the full audio, ebooks, and paperbacks on Amazon, Audible, Itunes, or many other platforms.

    I next sponsored guests who help me explain the healhcare mess and how it relates to the catastrophies happening in the rest of the world.

    BUTCHERED BY “HEALTHCARE” will tell you how to survive healthcare, the largest and most corrupt industry in America. Robert Yoho, who is recently retired from a lifetime of medical practice, has written this award-winning book to help you see through the lies, handle hospitals, find trustworthy doctors, and master your drugs.

    Learn how to avoid disgracefully ineffective and overused treatments such as:

    ✪ Angioplasty and coronary artery bypass surgery

    ✪ Low back and endoscopic knee surgeries

    ✪ Cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR)

    ✪ Hysterectomies and Caesarean sections


    Learn how toxic medications destroy health and how to quit them:

    ✪ 70 percent of us take prescription drugs, 20% of us more than five

    ✪ A 6th of us take psych drugs, causing brain damage and early death

    ✪ Cholesterol medicines are nearly worthless but are used by one in ten

    ✪ Opioids: millions take them and seventy thousand died in the US of overdoses in 2020

    ✪ Most cancer treatments are complete failures

    ✪ Generic medications are often weak or ineffective


    Learn how big Pharma sells drugs by faking their studies. Understand the lies they stuff into websites and medical journals.


    Learn why it all gets ignored (hint: Pharma has the largest criminal settlements in history).


    Learn how to conquer healthcare costs.


    Medical spending per person in the US is double that of other countries and it is the top reason for US personal bankruptcy. I will show you how to escape the over-billing and prosper anyway.


    Money short-circuits everyone’s integrity. But if you read this book and learn the system, you can find first-rate healthcare at reasonable prices.


    HORMONE SECRETS: How to use natural hormones to stay healthy, feel fantastic, and avoid overpriced, toxic drugs.

    Are you all worn out and wonder if it’s your hormones? Do you have questions about menopause or testosterone replacement? Have you heard that hormones cause cancer and heart disease? Hormone Secrets will clear up the controversies for you.

    Robert Yoho is an award-winning author who spent a career studying and prescribing hormones. He is retired, so he can tell you the truth. Hint: big Pharma and big money are involved, and you have been listening to many lies.

    Are some hormones dangerous? YES, and this book explains which ones. You will go to your doctor armed with exactly what to ask for.

    Is hormone replacement expensive? NO, not if you learn the secrets from Hormone Secrets.

    THE PROMISE: Study this book and you will know more about hormones than 99 percent of doctors.

    THE GUARANTEE: I will help you find a doctor who can help. Hormones are difficult for physicians to prescribe—they are pressured to use toxic, expensive patent drugs instead.


    DISCLAIMER: This is general information and not medical advice. Use it at your own risk. Make your healthcare decisions with the help of a licensed healthcare provider.

    CHAPTER 1: WHY DID I WRITE ABOUT HEALTHCARE CORRUPTION?
    Feb 26 2021

    First chapter of Butchered by "Healthcare."

    Physicians, to practice effectively and ethically, must understand what they face. Familiarity with these controversies is indispensable, even if you reject some conclusions. Your work will improve after you realize that doing less may produce better results.

    Likewise, patients must learn about these issues to have the best chance of benefiting from healthcare. I share practical, little-known ways to deal with doctors and hospitals. You will also learn about health, sickness, and the limits of medicine. The more you know, the more confident you will be accepting—or in some cases, refusing care.

    CHAPTER 2: I WAS WRONG ABOUT HEALTHCARE.
    Feb 26 2021

    Chapter 2, Butchered by "Healthcare."

    For at least half of healthcare, the potential benefit does not outweigh the harm. For a lot of the rest, supporting evidence that it works is lacking. A review of over 5000 articles recommends against many of today’s standard practices.

    The list below introduces some of the topics in this book, the worst failures of healthcare, in rough order of wasted resources. The opioid disaster, now killing 50,000 people a year in the US, is not even in the top seven. I “knew” a lot because of my degrees and training, but I was wrong about many things.

  • CHAPTER 3: HOW HEALTHCARE WAS RUINED.

    CHAPTER 3: HOW HEALTHCARE WAS RUINED.
    Feb 26 2021

    Chapter 3 of Butchered by "Healthcare"

    Healthcare costs started growing nearly exponentially when social support programs and private insurance fueled it in the 1960s. US costs are now $4 trillion (2020), almost a fifth of our gross domestic product (GDP), and twice what other developed countries are paying per capita.

    Our medical sector spends more than the total revenues of banking ($477 billion), oil and gas ($181 billion), and military ($600-800 billion). We spend more on healthcare than the next ten countries combined—more than France, Spain, China, Japan, Brazil, Germany, Italy, Canada, Australia, and the United Kingdom. Wealthy Singapore pays only a mid-single-figure percent of its GDP, and many others spend about ten percent.

    Could the rest of the world be missing out? Are there advantages of more pills, surgeries, and doctor care? How is it even possible to spend this much money? Our academics know the answer: excess healthcare makes providers money but is a net harm for patients.

Nobody is Immune- The Diseased Healthcare Industry

Nobody is Immune to The Diseased Healthcare Industry. I’ve been in the industry as a medical professional for over 30 years. I’ve worked in several different areas of Healthcare. There is an untold truth that most everyone functions under. The priority of the Healthcare industry, in particular Hospitals, Drug Manufacturers, Physician’s Offices, and Healthcare Agencies, is not to provide optimum care for the patient ( the consumer ), but to generate profits, and income for the Healthcare workers. This in itself is not a bad thing if Healthcare is provided efficiently, effectively, and in partnership with the patient. The problem is that our Healthcare model is implemented by those with self-serving objectives, of the least is the well-being of their patients. There are so many wonderful people providing exceptional care to our patients. Unfortunately, these are not the people who are implementing the policies and distribution of Healthcare. In a Capitalistic Society, Healthcare is balanced by those seeking power and profitability vs. those providing effective care and healing. The former is tipping the scales and “ “Butchered” by Healthcare”, by Robert Yoho, opens our eyes to this imbalance. Always be your best advocate. Always ask yourself, “ What is the motivation behind the advice I am being given. “ Always play a very active role in your family’s Healthcare, especially their hospitalization. Never trust a Physician just because they are a Physician. Always remember an Administrator’s motivation is most always tied to profitability. Be thankful to those actually providing the Healthcare to you and your loved ones.
