Oh - I do that all the time!
I tell them that Strep throat is "natural" - and the rheumatic heart
fever that follows - and don't bother with eyeglasses - or cataract
surgery - or any medicines for hypertension or cholesterol - jusl let
Ol' Ma Nature take her course! I then say to gather the info and make a
decision that seems reasonable to her. I figure if someone is 100%
anxious about whatever is being recommended or followed - then the high
cortisol levels probably counter everything positive that might have
been gained.
