Tijd heelt alle wonden [Ode]
In dokterspraktijken groeit het verlangen af te stappen van de mythe dat snel
altijd beter is. Uit steeds meer onderzoeken dat geduld vaak de beste remedie is. Na een
beschadiging kan het zenuwstelsel bijvoorbeeld, zichzelf herstellen. De afzonderlijke
cellen waaruit een zenuwstelsel bestaat, maken zelf nieuwe verbindingen aan, maar kunnen
ook hun functie wijzigen ten behoeve van genezing. De Britse, tegendraadse arts Vernon
Coleman suggereert dat bij negentig procent van alle ziekten geen noodzaak bestaat voor
een professionele behandeling, omdat het lichaam volmaakt in staat is voor zichzelf te
zorgen wanneer het tijd krijgt.

Comment of Katrina Fox, freelance
journalist
A rare breed of journalist, who will
always let the truth get in the way of a good story, he admits to being fired from more
than 40 newspapers and magazines for refusing to stay silent on issues such as
vivisection, which he describes as "pseudo-scientific black magic". Coleman
dares to speak the unspeakable and print the unprintable. Statements such as, "Adolf
Hitler killed fewer people than the tobacco companies have killed" are peppered
throughout his new book, and it's not hard to see why he's thrown so many hard-nosed Fleet
Street editors into a blind panic over the years.
