Can This Doctor Work Without Prescribing Drugs? (Medical Documentary) | Real Stories
Dr Chris Van Tulleken is embarking on a daring medical experiment that could change the way we think about our health forever.
Britain is addicted to prescription drugs. They’re doing us more harm than good, the evidence for their efficacy is wafer-thin and they’re costing the NHS a fortune. It’s a medical crisis - and Chris is determined to do something about it.
So he’s setting up a radical new drug-free clinic in a busy GP surgery. For three months, he’s going to treat illnesses without antibiotics, control pain without painkillers, and wean some of Britain’s most drug-dependent patients off their “life-saving” drug regimes. Instead of giving his patients medicine, he’s going to take their medicine away.

When I asked my doctor if he had a free sample of the medicine I was going to take he said he didn't have any samples. He told me the doctors in his clinic had decided to not accept drug samples from big pharma reps because it was unethical and a conflict of interest. This is the first doctor I'd ever had that thought this way. It makes 100% sense.

Your insane! This Dr is an egomaniac who believes opioids are a curse when in reality when taken properly are in line with medical marvels such as Dr. Salk’s amazing polio vax. Shame on him & I hope he gets his med license stripped bc he’s not intelligent enough to be a mailman no less a Dr & his stat that drugs like morphine & oxycodone only work half the time lol what a clown. If he was a med officer in field like I was in both Iraq & Afghanistan & refused to give my mates narcotics he’d be left in field so he could be picked up by Taliban or Al Nusera front in Iraq

There are food that some experts call “anti-inflammatory” or healthy food. But there are also proponents of some kind of diet that call some of those anti-inflammatory food as unhealthy and “pro-inflammatory” and vice versa. We can no longer tell which information is correct. The way I decide is observe how my body reacts to certain new food (the ones I once avoided because they were once called bad food. I do agree that sugar or refined carbs are really the “bad guys” of food and if we are not careful we are consuming them in large amounts because they are in every food & drinks out there including ketchup & barbecue sauce in the form of high fructose corn syrup or corn syrup or HFCS (whatever way they can hide the name). Some try to avoid them by using artificial sweeteners which are just as bad as sugar or the simpler carbs.

On October 5th, 2017 my son was in an accident at work and was admitted to a trauma hospital far from home, so I stayed in a hotel to be near him. He stayed there until mid December and in that time I lost 65lbs just walking the 3 blocks between hotel and hospital multiple times a day. The weight loss has been so helpful for my chronic pain that I've managed to wean my painkiller (opioid) dose down to half of what it was. Walking truly is a miracle drug and I feel like crap if I don't get my daily walk or some form of exercise in.

Hey good for you - does seem like a miracle :) laughed when you said you feel like crap if you dont get your walk. Walking is fabulous for everyone and also you only have to glance sideways to see how unhappy a puppydog is if not getting excercise physical play and a nice walk. My sister has an inside house doggy who gets very vocal if her daily walk is delayed. Walking must be very good for all of us.

Now I won't hurt a fly the king mosquito I make a great effort to release it outside but that's cuz I know the king mosquito eats the smaller ones. I do the same to spiders but on those anti depressants I was almost near manic aggressive rage my Dr. Gave psych meds which did nothing but makes me more aggressive. As much I like that new ""buzz word" we are one my people have been saying this for years anyway it's a nice thought but me being native a dr. Solution is not going to have the same effect as his normal everyday patients each race of people are different and I just took my self off this stupid medications even he said it could sick if I stopped taking them but I just simply stopped eventually all the pills was building up so much I asked them to just keep them I don't need them

Most of the more severe illnesses happen to people by surprise, unexpectantly, impacting first in the brain, then in the corresponding organ which that part of the brain controls. The end of WWI had absolutely everything to do with the Flu and lung TB outbreak that occurred killing millions. In nature, the biological conflict linked with a territorial fear (just what it means-a fear in your territory, your home, your community, etc.) is a widening of the bronchia (tissue loss). Your body attempts to widen your bronchia in order to allow more air into your lungs to give you more strength and energy to fight to keep your territory safe. Stay with me.......The biological conflict linked with a death fright impacts the lungs. The lungs attempt to grow larger in order to allow more air in because breath equals life, as we all know. No breath equals death. While you are in the fear or death fright conflict, you notice no symptoms of “disease”, except you have cold hands, cold feet, you can’t sleep, you awaken at 3 AM every night, you have little appetite. During the WW1, millions of people were in fear of the bombing of their homes and cities where the war was most active. Fearing for their lives, their loved ones in the war, their ability to survive. The food in the stores was sparse due to shortages. This lasted for 4 long years! The longer the conflict, the worse the healing phase. Within 2 weeks of the German Chancellor announcing the end of WWI, these millions of people ALL went into the healing phase all at the same time. It is during the healing phase that you experience symptoms of illness! What is the healing phase of the bronchia widening? Severe bronchitis, pneumonia. The body attempts to refill this lost tissue and you experience inflammation, fever, coughing, body aches, fatigue, etc. What is the healing phase of the extra lung tissue that grew? Decomposing of the tissue by TB bacteria and fungi. The symptoms of this healing phase are: severe coughing up of blood and tissue, fever, inflammation, severe mucous, body aches, fatigue. During this decomposing of the extra tissue (tumor), the body expels a lot of protein, and without replenishment, severe protein loss can result in death. Antibiotics did not exist yet. If TB bacteria does not exist in a person or they have been vaccinated against TB (big mistake), then the tumor will simply encapsulate and become dormant and not harm you. Who died during the Spanish Flu? Mainly the poor who could not afford to buy meat and proper nourishment, and the people who were directly impacted by the bombings and destruction of their homes. Millions of people suffered fear and death frights during the fighting of WWI, and millions of people all went into healing at the end of it. Not everyone was affected because not everyone suffered the same way. It’s not a “flu”, it’s not something you “catch”. You do not “catch” disease from others. A lie told for 100 years never becomes the truth. It’s biological, meaningful, and unavoidable. One hundred years later, a Fear Campaign begins, using the media to spread it......

Especially when you look it at from an external view and you're disgusted with the care you do provide. Making someone rattle is a mask to prevent the need for expensive consultations, but it doesn't fix any problems or reduce the load on the NHS or GPs. All it does is cost the NHS a fortune in masking pills. Actual help may cost more initially, but it also fixes the problem sooner, rather than paying week in week out for the rest of our lives.

They will likely hate this, even here (similar to the US though there's no regulation there on drug prices if insured its them who bargain with the pharmacies really and is when someone could be the most vulnerable who cant bargain at all in some cases or at all in the sense of being insured) they hate NICE forgot what they stand for the acronym but they regulate how much money a drug costs due to how its efficacy is (how well it works essentially) and coupled with the NHS they both I think do the bargaining for us patients. Duplimab (for asthma maybe i dont know but for Eczema or Atopic Dermatitis to be exact is for the treatment of mild to moderate cases) costs a patient in US $37k for year or about that, costs here in UK about £3k, the $37k is a bargained price as well they wanted to charge more as it was approved in 2017 is one of the only things Trump kept his word about wanting to bring down the prices of prescription drugs

I always feel like the gp prescribes pretty much every consultation, partly as patients want to feel like something is being done & a prescription is tangible. Leaving an appointment with nothing kind of makes a patient feel like nothing has been done. I'm far from thinking this is right but that's the impression I've been given by many people. Even if the medication does not necessarily do what it says, it brings the question of placebo effects, the patient may feel better even though the drug couldn't tackle the problem, a person's reason for seeing a doctor in the first place might improve.

Just diagnosed with osteoarthritis in my back, collarbone and feet at only 40 years old. “People look for pain” is such a true statement for people with chronic pain. I’ve also been looking a lot into the healing powers of nature (see the nature fix). I think the walking group can see great benefits from walking outside in nature. Edit: loved to see how the walking group and Crystal and Sarah benefit so highly from their lifestyle changes. Great work!

It feels good to do but can make me a bit more sore afterwards for a day. After that I feel much better, and then I began the cycle again, stretch , rest, stretch, rest, slowly progressing. Good luck with your healing.

I am British but have lived in Norway for 17 years. This has totally shocked me, over here the CPR infection test is completely standard in all GP surgeries. It is usually carried out by the medical receptionist, and one sits back down in the waiting room to be called in for it, after seeing the doctor. The appointment with the GP is also only 10 minuets, but they still manage it. If infection you go back into doctor between patients for literally the half minute it takes to get the prescription, if virus (far FAR more often than not) you simply leave. 9 times out of 10 I would expect to leave without any prescriptions, that is my expectation.

Natural remedies, eating healthy & regular exercise is how I've managed my Health -> so far, so good!.

While this is a great start, it falls short of healing completely. Like he said, most people don't want lifestyle changes, and really that's what causes most problems in the first place. I was sorry to see that food habits were not addressed. Eating chemicals from colorants and additives in food can cause inflammation, depression, and pain. Just drinking more water, eating more veggies and walking would go a long way to helping most chronic sufferers.

Yeah but it's meant to be a simple easy change for them first. Getting people to overhaul their lifestyle with changes to diet and exercise is a lot more difficult than just getting them to walk/exercise a few days a week. This was obviously just to show how even a small change helps a lot

I used to take them after work with a couple of beers and a cigarette just ‘because’ it made me feel numb and floaty and I liked that feeling. But I realised that I had some issues in my life and mind that I needed to address and re train if you like and after over a year taking codiene and paracetamol and doxylamine succinate every day, I concluded for me it was a form of depression due to a combination of an imbalanced diet leading to a lack of energy and then to an apathetic attitude which then mentally spirals into a form of low esteem and hopelessness and an egotistical realisation that you are not ‘as good as you used to be’ so mentally nobody is immune to the sudden shock of the realisation that they are ageing at an unexpected rate and history shows that we need three basic things mentally ‘somewhere to live without fear, something to do,and someone to love.the rest will fall into line.

@hamstermunchies5558
@hamstermunchies5558 2 года назад
She is so courageous. As someone who is on prescription painkillers for serious health problems the thought of coming off them is daunting. Trying to cope with extreme pain is exhausting. Every once of mental energy is taking up trying to distract yourself and trying to cope. You can't sleep because it hurts too much. You can't be present in any social interaction or pleasant activity because all you can feel is the pain and you don't have any hope for the future because you will still be feeling that same pain. Its distressing for your loved ones to see you suffer all the time. The only respite is strong painkillers

@@hamstermunchies5558 People abusing them make it harder for people that actually need them. I know at least 2 people that have opioid prescriptions and they sell the pills. Many people with opioid prescriptions dont need them and shouldnt have them. Thats what this is about. I know someone with CRPS, (shes actually allergic to opioids but is on another pain medication), so I realize some people do need them, no ones saying they or you shouldnt have pain meds but so many people dont need them and thousands of people die from opioid addiction each year in north America. Its actually lowered average life expectancy because so many young adults are dying prematurely from addiciton. There needs to be more doctors like this even if it makes it harder for those that really them unfortunately, it will save lives. For example should you be given as much as you want or as little as you possibly can get by on? opioid prescriptions need to be closely monitored even if its inconvenient or seems unfair. Not that thats what your saying just me trying to see both sides. Good luck with your pain management, i cant imagine having chronic pain. My dads buddy had his house broken into and got beaten up, cause they wanted his pills, be careful who you tell, people with addictions will do desperate things. Stay safe.

Doc started the first episode with that some drugs are useful, and that there are serious health conditions, where taking drugs is inevitable - but the main problem is the overdosage and that people swallow pills for literally everything. Instead of going out for a walk or airing their room, going to the gym and other simple solutions. And you have to bare in mind, that every pill has negative side-effect(s), but only small percent of the drugs taken help the patient in reality.

No, most people on this planet just need a better common sense... Our body is made to be able to heal itself in many cases. We need to trust it and go back to more traditional healing methods. Your body is telling you something and you just throw a pill to make the symptoms go away? Sometimes that helps with the problem, most times it doesn't and just make you need more and more pills. So for example... if something muscular hurts, your body wants to tell you to be more careful, move moderately, get enough rest, and keep it warm. If you break a bone, give it enough time to heal. If you get a headache, try some fluids first (I mean water or tea, no juices or soft drinks) and rest. Any viral infection takes time to heal too. Patience!

UK and US need to be more supportive of single mothers like in Scandinavia. They need to realize that investing in ALL kids is good for society and mothers like this need child care. I didn't have kids b/c men always leave and I didn't want to be a single parent. I'm really thinking that was a huge mistake b/c now I'm older and have nothing. Kids give people a reason to live but it's the hardest job that women have been doing for nothing for too long. I think it's time to make a huge change in society and offer more social support for many people. Community is lacking in our countries and there's a lot of lonely people who are doing nothing but mope around the house b/c they have no money or freedom to do anything else. Then to top it off, apartments are ugly too. Humans are not meant to live stacked on top of each other like we are animals in cages.

men dont always leave but they do leave more often then mothers but you should only have a child with someone you are sure is a responsible person who also wants a child too , Alot women dont make the best choice in term of partners and I think theres alot of women getting pregnant accidentally so If the guy didnt want a child to start with hes less likely to stick around and most women wont have an abortion even if they are told by the guy he doesnt want it, she decides to do it alone , so thats in a way partly the womans fault too , I had an abortion I knew the man was not going to be very much help realistically , Some single mums actually prefer to be single mums sometimes too
