For the average person, medical self-reliance shouldn't be too much to ask (of oneself)!

With a doctor's visit only every 5-10 years, if at all!

Not everyone can do that, of course, but it chould be a goal of those who feel that it is within their reach!

We really can look after ourselves better than anyone else, for we are in control of what goes in, how we feel, and what we do!
