In 1910, a report changed the course of medicine. It was called The Flexner Report. On the surface: a plan to “improve” medical schools. In reality, a weapon to erase holistic healing and natural medicine.

Who was Abraham Flexner?

A schoolteacher. Not a doctor. Not a scientist.

Hired by Carnegie, funded by Rockefeller to “evaluate” medical schools, his report destroyed anything that wasn’t patentable. At the time, many doctors practiced Herbalism, Homeopathy, Naturopathy, and Eastern Medicine.

But these couldn’t be patented. So, the Rockefellers wanted them gone.

Why? Follow the money!

The Rockefeller empire was built on oil. In the early 1900s, Rockefeller realized that oil could be used to make pharmaceuticals. 

Petrochemicals = drugs. 

They needed to eliminate the competition, like herbs and plants.

In 1913, John. D. Rockefeller created the Rockefeller Foundation. Its mission? “Science for the benefit of humanity.” It funded drug-based medical schools, hospitals, and research, but only if they followed Flexner’s standards. This is how they hijacked medicine with philanthropy.

Enter the Report

Flexner’s report called most medical schools “substandard,” “unscientific,” and “quack institutions.” Unless they taught drug-based, surgery-heavy medicine, they were shut down.

As a result, over 50% of the medical schools closed. Especially those that taught natural healing, accepted women, and accepted black students. Medicine became corporate. And exclusive.

The Rise of Rockefeller Medicine

Now that alternative schools were crushed, Rockefeller poured his money into “approved” schools. In return, those schools taught a “pill for every ill” approach, centred around patented drugs.

Herbalists and natural doctors were suddenly called “dangerous,” “unscientific,” and “charlatans.”

The Food and Drug Administration (FDA)—also Rockefeller influenced—began cracking down on natural remedies. Modern medicine became Pharma-based, surgery-focused, and reactive, not preventative. And it’s still shaped by this system today.

What We Lost

Centuries of knowledge were erased. Holistic practices were branded as “woo-woo,” and natural healing was dismissed as nonsense. All so billionaires could own the system.

Who benefited most? Rockefeller, Carnegie, Rothschilds (they helped with funding), Big Pharma, Oil companies, Insurance companies, and hospitals.

Who didn’t benefit? You. Me. Our health.

Illness became a business model.

What They Don’t Want You to Know

Natural healing works. It has worked for thousands of years. It always worked. But it couldn’t be patented. So they buried it. Demonized it. Now, we’re bringing the truth back. Step by step.

The Real Legacy?

The Flexner Report wasn’t just a document. It was a coup. A corporate takeover of health. And it still echoes in every hospital, pharmacy and medical school today.

And you still trust the medical industry?

Now, imagine what else they’ve buried!
