Seeing as not everyone can watch video.. It looks we have to guess..

Cancer, obesity related, heart failure/attack, respiratory illnesses?

Any of those?

I've thought I don’t need to say watch the video to find out, but if you need that instruction than: Watch The Video!

MRSA kills a lot of people, and that is the hospitals not the doctors

MD treatments bing bing bing... So this man is saying that 15,000 people die a month who are on medicare from their doctors prescribing incorrect treatments. He has gone on to say that the MD's have more power than the other people in medicine and that they were backed by the government in the past and now in the present through the administering of drugs.

Just wanna add in what he said at the end as well, he said the body is like a ferrari and that we should be fuelling it with proper fuel and it will take care of itself, so diet properly and you should be fine.

Can we get a source for this statistic According to the Centre for Disease Control and Prevention, the leading causes of death in the US are as follows;

Heart disease: 616,067
Cancer: 562,875
Stroke (cerebrovascular diseases): 135,952
Chronic lower respiratory diseases: 127,924
Accidents (unintentional injuries): 123,706
Alzheimer's disease: 74,632
Diabetes: 71,382
Influenza and Pneumonia: 52,717
Nephritis, nephrotic syndrome, and nephrosis: 46,448
Septicemia: 34,828

Not only that, but the proponent in that video is a "naturopathic physician" (a very dubious "medical" practice). Hardly an objective source.

*op claim. 15,000 x 12 = 180,000

Stroke (cerebrovascular diseases): 135,952
Chronic lower respiratory diseases: 127,924
Accidents (unintentional injuries): 123,706
Alzheimer's disease: 74,632

Septicemia: 34,828

wow at heart disease !

really that should be bottom of list , that is one of the most easily preventable illness that can be dealt with some good food and excerise

and of course pesky cancer ..

but for third place if his numbers are correct does take the cake

Really good video,thanks for bringing it to our attention.I'm rather shocked by those numbers I had no idea that many died from treatment,no wonder malpractice insurance is sky high.It's always good to research anything and everything when being treated by a doctor.
