Medicine is Based on Outdated Science

---

Today, drug development and physician practices are based on the belief that a system is nothing more than the sum of its parts studied in isolation. This ideology is called "Reductionism". According to Doctors and Bio-Chemists, living systems are the products of chemical reactions and nothing more. Based on the laws of chemistry and nothing more, doctors and researchers believe that they can understand a system "bottoms up". Our tax dollars and insurance premiums go to the private and academic medical complex based on these beliefs. The trouble is that science has known that this belief is not mathematically sound since 1931 when Kurt Godel published his Incompleteness Theorem.

Scientists have long accepted that biological systems are complex systems that store, transmit, and process information to successfully compete and adapt in their ecosystems. Information Theory is the branch of physics that governs all information systems in the universe. In accordance with these laws, information systems that must adapt to continually changing parameters take on hierarchical and modular structures for maintainability. These laws govern systems that are implemented in silicon-based chemistry as well as carbon-based chemistry. Living systems and IT systems converge on exactly the same handful of design patterns that have been used by human engineers for decades.
