Dr. Thomas Cowan’s Approach to Medicine

Dr. Thomas Cowan emphasizes a holistic approach to health that goes beyond conventional medical practices. He spent 37 years in primary care but ultimately surrendered his medical license to focus on sharing the insights he gained during his career. His key message is to investigate medical claims thoroughly, just as one would debunk irrational beliefs, like attributing rain to elephants in the sky. This investigative method led him to challenge widely accepted notions about the heart's function, vaccines, and the nature of cancer.
