Yes, modern medicine often over-relies on pharmaceutical interventions for managing chronic diseases like diabetes, hypertension, and heart disease. While drugs provide effective symptom control and save lives in acute cases, they frequently address symptoms rather than root causes, leading to polypharmacy, side effects, antibiotic resistance, and overtreatment. Critics highlight pharmaceutical industry influence, disease mongering, and overmedicalization, where lifestyle factors are undervalued despite evidence that diet, exercise, sleep, and stress management can prevent, manage, or reverse many conditions more sustainably and cost-effectively.https://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/288721https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC3031942/https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10176046/
