Doctors are also human and are very capable of Lying. That doesn't mean you shouldn't listen and follow their advice and guidance on your health. A doctor having a smoke break will still advise you not to smoke and the consequences it has on your lungs.
This is the truth,doctor's lie as well,they cover so many things from the their patient,sometimes we feel they lie to protect them emotionally so that they will not overthink which will cause another major problem in their mental health. But sometimes,they make mistakes,and we feel they are lying to us not knowing it's not intentional.
Doctor's are seen as our second God,and so people have a very high expectations of them.

   Only doctor know about everything if they are hiding or not but we're hoping that Doctors are telling the truth . Specially In Covid 19 we don't know or maybe if this would be true or not .

Some doctors lie, but not all . They prescribe you medicines that are very expensive, although the same disease could be cured by medicines with less money.

Doctors are also human being like all of us and telling lie is natural and there are many reasons behind it ,one of them is marketing expensive  products for monetral benefits from pharmaceutical companies while low cost medecines can treat the same disease. Although morally it is never acceptable but it happens every where in particulars countries where democracy is not very  strong and people are rarely held accountable for corrupt practices.

It's pretty amusing, actually, to see how so many people have such blind faith in and reverence for 'doctors.'  They can, for this reason, get away with practically anything.  Dr. Larry Nasser used to molest his patients right in front of their parents for Chirst's sake, and got away with it for like 18 years!

I don't like lie in any form.. especially my doctor.
he/she is the people i trust most in term of my health, if i had something in terms of my health (even cancer), he must tell the truth no matter what..

Recently i went to the hospital to check see the doctor and i was told the doctor to attend to me will be back soon, while waiting, he came in and from the look of things he had gone to smoke, it got me thinking, can it be that they are telling us not to do this and that and if you follow them you wont eat anything because everything is bad to health, no drinking of alcohol, smoking of any kind and the list is endless, why would a doctor now turned around and go smoking?

humans decide if they want long term health where they are still fit when they retire. or enjoy life now.
most people dont care about what happens to them when they are 70, so they are not in a mindset to care about lifestyle of 70+.
you know. why be strict with yourself for 50 years of adulthood just to live 10 more years when your too old to date/have sex/skydive/climb a mountain.

most doctors actually care less about their health simply because they have more access to medical procedures. they can literally get any test they like by asking a colleague to do a check many times a year. where as normal people have to be on waiting lists and only get a check once every 10 years.
so doctors can find problems with themselves early and get them fixed and have a better survival rate simply by being inside the system to get the checks and procedures early. thus they dont have to worry as much.

many citizens dont find out they have cancer until its too late like 5years into having cancer. where as doctors would get a check from their OH(occupational health) plan if they had a continual cough. within the first 3 months


If the doctors advise you not to drink alcohol, no smoking I think better to follow this advise. Because you know the consequences if you continue those prohibited to you. Now, if some other things were the Doctor said don't eat this food such as Pork, preservative foods , and etc it is still good to follow, but if the physicians advise you not to eat this vegetable or fruits well in this case the Doctor is lying this time on this scenario. Because, all fruits and vegetable are good into our body. Why? because human are herbivorous.

1. there is some vegetation that is actually poison. we learn over thousands of years what to stay away from. try licking poison ivy and tell me all vegetation is good... enjoy the pain in finding out not all vegetation is god for us..

2. humans are not herbivorous. cows are.
humans are mono-gastric stomachs. meaning we cannot process/digest much cellulose food materials such as grasses/green vegetation.
(its why we fart and have indigestion and burp when eating brussel sprouts, cabbage) we can process the fibre of wheat, but not the wheat germ as well..

preserved/process food is not the problem of the meat. its the salts, germs, viruses and bacteria involved in the processing/preserving(or lack of) method that our guts do not like.
cooking food is a good process to kill the germs, bacteria/viruses..
processed food is not a dietary aid. its a business tool to lengthen shelf life for business profits(less waste to trash if it lasts longer in shops)

living a vegan diet is unhealthy. the amount of veg you need to eat just to get to the amount of iron and protein requirement is something unachievable. thats why these grains/veg/greens end up needing to be fortified(additives/supplements added)

a balanced diet of meat for the 'metallic'(iron magnesium,zinc) and protein nutrients. and veg for the vitamin nutrients is the best answer.
moderation(small portions) of a varied diet is better then bloating yourself with large portions of only a section of food types.

trust your tastebuds.. if something needs an additive to make it worthy of eating. your body doesnt want it naturally.
EG if your bread only tastes good with jam/butter or ham.. then dont eat the bread.
if you can only eat meat if its spiced up gravy or sauce added. dont eat it.

learn to trust your cravings.
i enjoy meat and veg. but certain times of the year i can crave a steak. then i can crave vegetables. trust your gut and your tastebuds.
if i eat too much steak i lose the enjoyment for it. and then my body enjoys lamb or chicken more. its our bodies way of saying it has had too much of one type of nutrient.

our evolution from ape to human was due to eating meat. due to our ancestors trying different foodgroups. and finding out what they crave more or spit out.

the iodine in fish grew our thyroid gland which turned 'cretins' into humans
take away the iodine and the thyroid gland and we devolve into caveman

do some research on mono-gastric stomach, thyroid, pituitary and the whole human biology. and realise what types of nutrients those things need that separate us from a cow

Doctors can lie base on the patience demand of what the have
Orh problem that occurred.
They're also human that might make a mistake in order to get what the want in a certain time.

Do you think Doctors lie?


"Dead Doctors Don't lie" is the name of a book that has to do with nutritional health and supplementing. However, if a dead doctor is buried rather than being cremated, s/he lies... in the grave.

Why in the hell not! Why won't it shouldn't doctors lie!! In fact, I think doctors are very good liers. You know practically, you can't lie to someone that doesn't trust you and that's a fact. When you aren't trusted then, it would take a lot of convincing and logical analogy but, when your in a trusted position, the case is different.
Doctors are in the position  of truth because, they took an oath and besides, your unwell and often put yourself in there hands for the recovery process. This is by far the most trust you can give a person and at times to make a patient feel better and enjoy the most time possible, they tend to tell a lie by hiding the seriousness of the health situation although, they could confide in there family.

since is human created by God is not trusted because human being have questionable character and the character will remain until the person dies, doctors tell lies especially when they notice that you come to their hospital with out money and doctors knows how to tell lies to discharge patient that is not credible of making payments required payment. For the smoking i don't think smoking is offence for medical practioners

It has long been proven that doctors collude with pharmaceutical companies, and by and large they do not cure, but only make it worse

Here is a simpler question...

Are doctors human? Yes? Do humans lie? Yes. There is your answer. However that doesn't mean his advice is bad... smoking isn't good for you, and just because he is also addicted doesn't mean his advice is invalid. I would suggest you try to improve your health in the ways he suggested as much as you can manage without living in misery. I would make the goal to be constantly improving in that area rather than just meeting all of his instructions to the letter. If it is absolutely critical you do something they will make it clear. His job is to tell you how to get healthy, its not his job to tell you how to control yourself.
I support this motion because you need to be a human to have the tendency to lie. Let's observe the rate of mortality is recorded, some  doctors falsify figures or verdict in hospitals just to suit whom? The human nature and conscience.
 Citing the case of the doctor going out for a smoke, it's kind of funny as you find that these individuals warn that smokers are liable to die young, is a typical example of irony. But then, their jobs are to give out information which in most cases are true.

Every human being lie either to safe themselves from any negative repercussions or at their own will. Because I smoke doesn’t mean I won’t tell you the negative effect of it. Is now left for you to believe me and distance yourself from it but if you still wanna go ahead I can’t stop you. Not all people that preach about good things are actually saints, they might one way or the other fighting themselves to stop it and educating the public to stay away from it because of its repercussions they might be currently dealing with, just because they couldn’t prevent themselves from starting it initially..

Doctors do their very best to make everyone safe and in good health,Doctors might forget to inform his patient on things to avoid ,thing's to do or not to do,when a patient constantly facing different illness it becomes very unfocused for a doctor to adequately pass on exact information or advice due to often reoccurance of the patients different illnesses ,this wouldn't be considered as lie due to workload and frequent development that cant be ascertained or predicted. DOCTOR are Angels on earth.

If this includes unintentional lies...

Doctors lie all the time. They don't have time, with all those patients, to go through all the stuff they learn from the researchers. They simply believe it (or not). But they tell it the way they learned it, truth or not.

Doctors are not perfect, they are humans who are vulnerable to making mistakes too. But then let's not forget that this is a profession like any other like being a banker or lawyer, they give instructions on how to live a better life and stay healthy based on what they have been taught, but that doesn't mean that they must live a flawless life.

We all have things we are battling with and for you to have seen a doctor smoking knowing fully well the side effects of doing so, it may be a challenge he or she is battling with. Let's not assume that they are all liars, some are just struggling like we are too and that is why some persons will say do as I say not do as I do.

All doctors lie,  they lie in everything that has to do with their profession, why on earth will doctors write what their patient can't read unless they take it to another doctor or pharmacist? The last time I visited the hospital, I was shocked when I was told by another doctor that one of the drugs the doctor asked me to pay huge amount for was vitamin c but in his write up that I couldn't pronounce nor read was ascorbic acid. Doctors lie to much and they need to stop that.

I general i think doctors don't lie.. however i am from India over here healthcare system is very fragmented. So there are doctors who compromise on ethics to make money.
They make priscription costly to earn money at least or at most i have heard dead patients kept on ventilator to make extra bucks.
But i can't corrborate these facts.

Do you know we all are humans? Sometimes the body do requires what is not good for our health. The doctors are not lying about this, smoking is not a bad thing but the problem here is that it has great effect on our body organs than what we enjoys from it. It can cause cancer, affects our internal organs and many more. This is the reason while consistent smoking can shorten our lives. Naturally, we are all smokers. We smoke almost everyday from different combustions that come from cars, factories, burning, etc.
