Скачать или смотреть Seniors! Why Doctors Are Now Saying NO to These 3 Routine Tests

⚠️ Senior Health Alert: More Testing Is Not Always Better. We have been taught that "early detection is key" for everything. But after age 70, the rules of medicine change. A growing number of geriatricians are raising the alarm about "overdiagnosis"—finding problems that would never have hurt you, but the treatment for them might.

In this video, we expose the 3 routine screenings that are often unnecessary for seniors over 70 and can lead to dangerous side effects, hospitalizations, and unnecessary stress. We are not saying to ignore your doctor, but we are giving you the information you need to ask the right questions before you say "yes."

In this video, you will discover:
✅ The "Just in Case" Urine Trap: Why treating bacteria without symptoms (Asymptomatic Bacteriuria) creates superbugs and ruins your gut health for no reason.
✅ The PSA "False Alarm": Why routine prostate screening after 70 often leads to invasive biopsies and anxiety rather than saving lives.
✅ The Truth About Colonoscopies: The sharp rise in perforation and anesthesia risks after 75, and why non-invasive alternatives might be safer.
✅ The "Cascade Effect": How one innocent test leads to a snowball of medications you don't actually need.

Your health is about quality of life, not just test results.
