Who's Health Is It?
No one cares about your health and the health of your loved ones more
than you do. We at the Wellness Research Foundation believe that the best
way to ensure quality in healthcare is to allow you to be in control.
We believe you have an inherent right to decide on quality, expertise,
respect and alternative treatments for your own health.
Unfortunately, the modern medical system all too often robs you of this
natural right. Drug company marketing incentives directly conflict with
your need for honest information. Hospitals and insurance companies make
decisions concerning your health care options without your consent. Your
own doctor has seen his authority eroded, and worse, has become increasingly
dependent on medical information biased by economic influences beyond
his control.
John Stewart Mill said, “A man's (or woman's) autonomy
over his (or her) own body is absolute.” We are committed to joining
you in reclaiming this right as we proclaim the following principles.
Your Health Emancipation Proclamation
1) You should be free to choose, according to your own standards.
2) You must have absolute “veto power” over any medical treatment
option.
3) You should have access to medical research done by independent companies
who will not benefit financially from the results.
4) You should be informed of potential side effects of any treatment
option proposed.
5) You should have public education programs focused on wellness.
6) You should have equal and uncensored access to natural alternatives
to conventional medical procedures and treatments.
To support you as a partner in these collaborate efforts, the WELLNESS
RESEARCH FOUNDATION proclaims our commitment to provide research, education,
publishing and an unbiased wellness information forum.
