Trust is something that should be earned. The story in this image highlights the corruption of some giant pharmaceutical organizations. A few years ago, it seemed like everyone wanted to believe these companies had good intentions, but history proves otherwise. Many of these companies have caused serious harm with their products, leading to numerous lawsuits. In some instances, there's evidence showing they knew about the harms even as they continued to market the drugs. An example is Bayer, which knowingly distributed HIV-contaminated drugs to third-world countries.

These companies often seem ruthless, caring more about their bottom line than about your health or delivering on their promises. Part of their business model likely takes into account these huge fines, which pale in comparison to the billions of dollars they make in profit. It’s crucial, when it comes to your health, to be highly skeptical of companies offering products that could have dramatic impacts on your well-being.

This is about more than just the companies; it's about your discernment. Only you can look out for your health in the most serious way because nobody else will prioritize your health as you should. You make decisions that affect your health—what food you eat, what pharmaceuticals you take or avoid, and when to exercise. The worst thing you can do for your health is to outsource those decisions, especially to a nameless, faceless multibillion-dollar company.
