Why your doctor has never heard of Acai?

Doctors have been over enthusiastic about prescribing drugs, while neglecting to use safer and healthier choices in treating patients. However we must not burden the doctors with all the responsibility for this state of affairs. The research indicates that people want their doctor to prescribe them a pill to fix the problem.

A report published by the International Medical News Group in 2004 reported that doctors should only spend five minutes talking with each patient. It is believed that patient satisfaction did not increase by more time spent chit-chatting with patients. It is also thought that most patients know what drug they want and satisfaction occurs when the doctor writes the script.

As a result of this behaviour both patients and doctors have been indoctrinated to quickly reach for a drug that only treats symptoms, not the underlying cause of the problem.

Pharmaceutical companies also have a role to play and have an influence on the doctors prescribing drugs promoting their drugs are superior to other brands.
