So they say from today's advanced medical procedures. People often died in the 40's or 50's because they did not have proper medical intervention and today's advancements. Don't believe it! I find that medical advancements focus on primarily TWO areas;
1) Trauma medicine which deals with how to deal with injuries and bacterial problems from such, and...
2) prevention of CERTAIN diseases from inoculation (not routine stuff such as flu)
other than that, medical philosophy has nothing over that of the past. In fact, the book of Revelation mentions people being deceived by Pharmaceuticals.
In short, with the exception of #1, and #2, people do not live longer today. Our earliest presidents were free of # 1 and # 2 and indeed lived as long as present day people and presidents.
So the moral of the story is that anything other than #1 and #2, medical philosophy is useless, e.g. preventing disease, high cholesterol, high BP, cancer and so forth. As a matter of fact. the diseases that plague people today were not present in the past. Make sure you are well nourished. Take supplements that are antioxidant and you'll be fine, despite the numbers the doctor might try to get you to take pills for. My greatest wish is that Christians be free from this huckster mentality pushed on us and everyone else.
