        Medicine isn’t good for you its just usually better than the alternative.

        Natural isn’t better than man made but you have evolved along with shit that’s in nature to consume I think that’s why the more refined a thing is the more dangerous it is to consume

        Medicine is scientifically proven to improve health. Fake food is designed to improve profits.

          unfalsifiable nonsense. I refuse to argue over “things I like are good, things I dislike are bad” semantic bullshit. if you think medicine of all things isn’t made for profit, I have a series of landmarks to sell you

            if you think medicine of all things isn’t made for profit

            Medicine has existed outside of a profit motive for millennia. Even animals self medicate.
