I get so much pushback now from patients needing to stay blood pressure and cholesterol meds now. Everyone seems to want to believe the drug companies are getting them "hooked" on their drugs. Had a man in his 30's newly diagnosed with type 1 diabetes. He believed insulin was keeping him dependant. So on he goes to a health food store where a smart salesman convinces him he can end his insulin dependance by taking chromium. He was in the hospital for two weeks after that.
