Here's a good example of scary Western medicine versus paleo "medicine." A 
few days ago, I noticed a red/sore area on my lower eyelid. Yesterday, I 
went to the eye doc to have it checked out.  He said it was essentially a 
plugged oil gland and that it could turn into a stye.  Therefore, he said 
he wanted to treat it "aggressively" and prescribed antibiotic eye drops to 
be used 3 times per day for up to 10 days.  I inquired what is the harm in 
a stye IF a stye were to form -- I thought they were sort of like eye zits -
- and he said, they are like a pimple but it could get big.  I then said, 
well, if it's like a pimple, aside from having to put up with the way it 
looks for a little while, what would happen if I did nothing.  He said it 
would likely just go away!  So I got home and did a little research on 
styes and there is some thought in the complementary medicine community 
that they are symptomatic of vitamin A definciency.  So I made 4 oz slab of 
organic calves liver, cooked rare, with lots of fresh sage (kills the 
livery taste which I don't care for) and low and behold, my eye is MUCH 
better this morning.  Conicidence?  maybe -- but scary that I could be 
pouring antibiotics into my eye for NO REASON. I'm going to make liver 
again on Sunday.
