Yes, don't use major medications lightly, no matter how hard drug companies
may push them.

The same applies to herbs and supplements, only more so, since the strategy
of that industry is to get everyone taking them whether they need them or
not.

Uhmmm, Petey the Moron, I think you are confused once again.

The strategy of the drug companies is to push the use of prescription
drugs whether you need them or not.  Secondly, the push is to use the
poisons so that more poisons ( drugs) can be prescribed for the
unavoidable side effects.

Why is it so hard for you to see the truth?  Have you not outlived
your initial indoctrination and brainwashing to the point that you can
now think logically or are you still drinking too much flourine in
your water?

But there's no proof that pharmaceutical drugs improve outcomes any more
than nutritional products.
All drugs do is suppress symptoms which then go on to create more insidious
diseases in the body.
This was proved by hahnemann is his study of chronic diseases, some people
even died shortly after the suppression of some skin condition with drugs.
See The Chronic Diseases, their Peculiar Nature and their Homoopathic Cure.

No Peter, that's the goal of the pharmaceutical cartel to get everybody
taking drugs whether they need them or not. That's why there is a huge
number of kids on ritalin rather than looking at their diets and eliminating
artificial additives.

Herbs have been around for centuries and used by the common folk routinely.
However, you should read The Rockefeller Drug Empire by Hans Ruesch,
available online which demonstrates the corruption of medicine by huge
donations to influence medical schools.

There is no proof because pharmaceutical companies compare their products to
previous versions of the same product rather than alternative remedies.

Chapter 5: The Approval of Chemotherapy Drugs
Increased Survival Time
But let's suppose that this particular drug had "increased the survival
time" of the patients in a study. Finally, you say, proof that chemotherapy
works, I can get back to my chemotherapy. Not so fast. What does it mean to
say that a chemotherapy drug "increased the survival time?"

It means that it increased the survival time of patients relative to some
other chemotherapy drug or some other combination of chemotherapy drugs!! In
other words, to my knowledge, never in the history of medicine has a drug
company proven that their drug extends the life of a patient relative to the
avoidance of all chemotherapy drugs! "Survival time" is only measured by
comparing one or more chemotherapy drugs to one or more other combinations
of chemotherapy drugs.

In other words, this corrupt government agency, allows the B companies
approval of their cars as long as they can prove their car model is better
than a car model from another B company! In other words, the B companies
don't have to compare their cars to one of the G company models, only to B
company models. If a Company B2 model has a better rear view mirror than a
Company B4 model rear view mirror, then it can get approved by the
government agency.

Likewise, chemotherapy drugs only have to be compared to other chemotherapy
drugs. They do not have to be compared to "no treatment" or "treatment
refused" patients, only to other chemotherapy drugs. Nor do they have to be
compared to alternative treatments for cancer, such as the Kelley Metabolic
therapy.

Study this next quote carefully!
"We have a multi-billion dollar industry that is killing people, right and
left, just for financial gain. Their idea of research is to see whether two
doses of this poison is better than three doses of that poison."  --Dr Glen
Warner, M.D. oncologist

In other words, all "scientific evidence" for chemotherapy drugs is to
compare them to each other or to see if a tumor shrinks or to see if some
benchmark changes. Never is chemotherapy compared to alternative treatments
nor is it ever compared to no treatment at all. This type of deception is
designed to give the public the impression that chemotherapy drugs are
constantly improving and soon chemotherapy drugs will actually cure cancer.
Nonsense, the chemotherapy drugs are only being compared to each other. What
is getting better over the years is their techniques of deception.

"If you can shrink the tumour 50% or more for 28 days you have got the FDA's
definition of an active drug. That is called a response rate, so you have a
response..(but) when you look to see if there is any life prolongation from
taking this treatment what you find is all kinds of hocus pocus and song and
dance about the disease free survival, and this and that. In the end there
is no proof that chemotherapy in the vast majority of cases actually extends
life, and this is the GREAT LIE about chemotherapy, that somehow there is a
correlation between shrinking a tumour and extending the life of the
patient." --Ralph Moss

Possibly so, but that is not the view of the medical profession, which
controls public access to most types of pharmaceuticals.

Do you think most of the mothers of kids on these drugs have not already
looked at that?  There is, in any case,  not much profit in such an old
off-patent drug.

So it is said, with llittle evidence that folk use mimics what modern herb
manufacturers choose to  push them for.   It is only since doctors have been
asked to report possible adverse effects of herbs, that we have started to
uncover them.  I suspect many herbal preparations are safe simply becasue
they contain negligible active ingredients  .     Others are dangerous
because of herb substitution and contminants.

So you are admitting that modern docs report 1% or less of adverse
vaccine effects and, possibly none of the adverse drug events, while
trying to report 100% of any possible adverse herbal event.

Now, just who and what corporate group does that action benefit?

You have a good point there: the manufacturers should be required to
report adverse events themselves.  Giving them an exemption was bad
law.

Its only through exposure of the ill effects of mind altering drugs that
things are beginning to change.
The pharmaceutical cartel has no conscience and is driven purely by profits.

The people don't need to be spared from the possible harmful effecs of
drugs, but rather the pharmaceutical cartel who are driven purely by
profits. They are in the business of disease, they like to keept he people
sick because they get more profits. If they knew how to cure a disease they
would keep it quiet because it would cost them money and profits.
They don't need defending. They spend enough money on bribes to doctors and
politicians, and putting out propaganda against alternative medicine,
without having you defend them as well.

And the information is just as good as your previous claim that
the pharmaceutical companies make more profits than the rest of
the Fortune 500 combined -- despite the fact that a quick check
would show that GE *ALONE* makes more profit annually than all
of the pharmaceutical sector, by your own quoted numbers.

Pull the other one, it's got bells on.

CHICAGO (CNN) -- Adverse reactions to prescription and over-the-
counter medicines kill more than 100,000 Americans and seriously
injure an additional 2.1 million each year, researchers say.

Such reactions -- which do not include prescribing errors or drug
abuse -- rank at least sixth among causes of death in the United
States, behind heart disease, cancer, lung disease, strokes and
accidents, according to a report published in this week's Journal of
the American Medical Association. The report was based on an analysis
of existing studies.

"Serious adverse drug reactions are frequent ... more so than
generally recognized," the researchers said.

How can you debunk 100,000 deaths per year and who debunked it ...the
pharmaceutical cartel?

If it was one death through a vitamin or minerals it would be headlines in
the illuminati controlled mass media.

Its only to be expected that the pharmaceutical cartel would counter this
claim.
They know how to spin anything.
What do you think all those marketing courses are all about?

Carole, try this simple question:

What would it take to make you change your mind?

| Bogus as it might seem, people, this really is a deliverable       |
| e-mail address.  Of course, there isn't REALLY a lumber cartel.    |
| There isn't really a Santa Claus, but try www.santaclaus.com.      |

About what?
Unfortunately DC you've snipped the bit that went before and I don't know
what you want me to change my mind about.

Peter, surely you do not expect a medical or pharmaceutical site to quote
the number of deaths from adverse drug reactions. To do so would be an
admission. You only have to look at the "class" payouts to realise that
something is seriously wrong.
I would think the figure of 100,000 is ultra conservative and perhaps you
may care to elaborate on how  many deaths you believe are caused by adverse
reaction to medication and how you support that number given all the class
actions.

Don't forget to allow for the Silent Majority whom may well say "Well they
died but we cannot afford to question the Doctors" or  "We know what
happened  but cannot afford to pay for investigation or legal action" or
"sh.t happens, lets read the will".

I suspect the Silent Majority deaths outnumbers any recorded deaths from
adverse reaction to medication.

Cheers Rod
