The third leading cause of death in the U.S. is medical errors
According to a study in the British Medical Journal, 9.5%
of all deaths in our country are due to medical errors, that is 700 deaths a
day. Most of these deaths occur in the
hospital. Another report from the CDC
estimated that antibiotics are prescribed inappropriately one-third of the
time. Much, much safer is the use of
nutritional supplements. The latter
should be prescribed and used a lot more often in my opinion.
