<p>Most of the public never gets to hear about the many proven ways to heal ourselves  because our medical profession is an antiquated dinosaur bound to drugs.</p>
<p>Our FDA does not, and will not, recognize “so called” alternative ways.</p>
<p>In fact, the FDA has made it illegal to claim that a nutritional product or alternative way can heal you. If it is not a drug approved by the FDA, your cure claims will subject you to heavy fines and or jail.</p>
<p>Over the past decade it has been made very clear the strong influence Big Pharma has over our FDA.  Sometimes you would think they were running the FDA.</p>
<p>To make our health conserns even worse, our USDA, who should be insuring that we get safe, nutritional food to eat, is highly influenced by giant food processors allowing them, through over processing, to destroy much of the nutrients in the packaged food sold in our food markets.</p>
<p>Most all of these nutrient deficient foods also contain <span id="more-88"></span>preservatives, dyes, and taste enhancers that are proven carcinogens  and permitted by the USDA.</p>
<p>Most of these processed foods also contain additives that our USDA, in their wisdom, says the food companies do not even have to tell us about.</p>
<p>Our populace is slowly being poisoned and that is ok so long as the money keeps pouring in.</p>
<p>The USDA also allows our crops and farm land to be poisoned with insecticides and other chemical sprays, and allows the use of Genetically Modified (GMO) crop seeds which contain imbedded insecticides that cause neurological damage to humans.</p>
<p>And that is not all.</p>
<p>The USDA allows the existence of inhuman animal factory farms where the inhumanly packed together animals wallow in their filth and must therefore be loaded with antibiotics to minimize sickness.</p>
<p>These are the cows, pigs, chickens and eggs that are sent to your local food market for your consumption.</p>
<p>Then there are the milk cows that are quietly loaded up with growth hormone that winds up in the milk you drink and give your children.</p>
<p>Sounds like a disgusting nightmare, doesn’t it?  Well it is!</p>
<p>Now you know the real reason our country is the sickest developed country in the world.  It is all about the food and drink made available to the citizens in this country.</p>
<p>Even the Food Pyramid, promoted as a healthy way to eat by our USDA, is a fraud perpetrated on an unsuspecting public.</p>
<p>Instead of being an honest evaluation of what we need to eat and drink nutritionally to maintain good health, it is a token program toward good health designed to appease the large corporate food processors and corporate farms.</p>
<p>In addition we are hindered from hearing about the alternative ways to heal one’s self or prevent disease without the use of drugs.</p>
<p>If you had 1,000 or 10,000 people change the way they eat, and add nutritional supplements, and heal themselves of congestive heart disease, like I did, or heal themselves of some other diseases, you could not say, write, advertise, or promote that you sold an alternative to drug cure without the FDA having you arrested and thrown in jail because you did not follow the FDA’s drug testing protocol and get FDA approval &#8212; even though the cure is real!</p>
<p>It matters not that so many people are healed with no side effects.</p>
<p>What matters to the FDA is the protection of pharmaceutical company’s profits and the public be damned!</p>
<p>Anything you do write when merchandizing must be accompanied by a disclaimer that states your product is not meant to diagnose, cure, etc. etc.</p>
<p>Did you know that there is, and has been since 2006, a cure for breast, lung, and liver cancers without the use of drugs, radiation and surgery?</p>
<p>You can check it out at: <a href="http://www.cancercured.org">www.cancercured.org</a>.</p>
<p>You can get cancer cured at a cost less than 10% of the cost of conventional cures and have no side effects.</p>
<p>These people even know the source and will guarantee you won’t get a re-occurrence of the cancer if you follow their protocol.</p>
<p>Find me a medical doctor who will do that for you!</p>
<p>And here are some other outstanding realities:</p>
<p>Most diet drugs do not work.</p>
<p>Others cause side effects and some can cause death.</p>
<p>People who do lose weight, due to diet or drugs, regain the weight as soon as they go off their diet and stop taking diet pills.</p>
<p>BUT – you can permanently lose weight, whether you are just overweight or obese, by just making some changes in the food you eat and what you drink.</p>
<p>You don’t need weight loss drugs, herbs, or starvation diets to shed the pound off your frame permanently.</p>
<p>All it requires is a small lifestyle change.</p>
<p>I’ll tell you how in my next newsletter.</p>
<p>The government’s health care program and health care reform is a total farce.</p>
<p>It is all about sick people and preparing to supply medical and drug treatment to all the millions the government expects will get sick, instead of focusing on our food supply and teaching people how to heal themselves and how to prevent people from getting sick in the first place.</p>
<p>Our government needs to stop subsidizing large corporate farms that supply us with chemical laden fruits and vegetables and start subsidizing only those farms that produce organic produce.</p>
<p>The same for producers of meat, chicken and fish, plus all dairy products.</p>
<p>Only you can make this happen.</p>
<p>You need to let your congress men and women and senators know that unless they change the laws to bring healthy food to market, they will be out of office.</p>
<p>You need to stop buying conventional produce and “so called” natural foods, processed foods, and sodas, and switch to organic food and drinks.</p>
<p>If you vote with your dollar, you will win.</p>
<p>The law of supply and demand is the only thing big corporations understand.</p>
<p>You are the ones who are creating the demand by your purchases.</p>
<p>Stop buying garbage food and the demand will dry up.</p>
<p>Buy only healthy food and the supply will expand.</p>
<p>You and you alone are in control.  Just band together.</p>
<p>Good health, which starts at the cellular level, can only be obtained with healthy food.</p>
<p>To your good heath &amp; longevity.</p>

<p>New discoveries occur so fast, it is hard to keep up with them.</p>
<p>Within the medical community you will find doctors who follow a nutritional path to healing and doctors who maintain that there is no scientific evidence that alternative treatments are successful.</p>
<p>Unfortunately, for the public, there are more researchers and scientist working for big pharmaceutical companies than there are independent researchers.</p>
<p>It is clear from past and present evidence that big pharma is constantly seeking to make a quick buck which interferes with the truth.  So&#8212; buyer beware!</p>
<p>It has been well documented by organizations such as OCA and Public Citizen that all too often medical doctors rely on what is told them by pharmaceutical reps, while others have no time to research alternatives.</p>
<p>That is why doctors don’t think that alternatives work.</p>
<p>Doctors don’t realize that <span id="more-63"></span>today’s alternative treatments often become tomorrow’s standard treatment.</p>
<p>For example, information that doctors use today as a basis for prescribing omega-3 oils as a proven preventative for cardiovascular disease, and as a vital component for neurological development in the young, is the same information they ignored or rejected 30 years ago.</p>
<p>For most of that period doctors were ignorant of the research proving the value of omega-3 oils mainly because the major medical publications rebutted its worth.</p>
<p>Now they all sing its praises as a preventative.</p>
<p>The critical question never asked is, “How many people died or were crippled because of these physicians’ blindness and refusal to objectively examine the science?”</p>
<p>We hear a lot about “evidence-based medicine,” but just how much of traditional medical practice is evidence-based?</p>
<p>Studies have shown that as little as 30% is backed by science.</p>
<p>Since most doctors basically rely on pharmaceutical reps for most or all of their new and current medical information, you can say that most medical practice is accomplished by the seat of their pants.</p>
<p>The term “evidence-based medicine” is a ploy to discredit all alternative treatments, since it implies that everything outside traditional medicine is not “evidence-based.”   The reality is far different.</p>
<p>In fact, most alternative treatment has tremendous scientific evidence.</p>
<p>What they lack is large epidemiological studies since such studies are extremely expensive.   These high priced studies are too often led by physicians with little knowledge of nutrition or by those who are paid by pharmaceutical companies to discredit their competitors which are often the “alternative” practitioners.</p>
<p>Studies have also shown that a number of articles appearing in some of the most prestigious and often-quoted journals have actually been completely written by scientists employed by pharmaceutical companies.</p>
<p>Respected physicians simply added their names to these articles as if they had written the articles themselves.</p>
<p>Fraud in science, and especially medicine, has become a major problem in the United States.</p>
<p>The practice of physicians adding their name to the bottom of an article written by someone else, in now prohibited, by law, in Great Britain.</p>
<p>Another example of physicians’ blindness and refusal to objectively examine and acknowledge the science&#8212;is the medical cure for breast and other cancers without the use of chemotherapy, radiation or surgery.</p>
<p>This blindness, and refusal to spend the time to discover the truth, will cost the lives of tens of thousands of women who die needlessly every year.</p>
<p>That cure can be found at:  <a href="http://www.breastcancercured.com">www.breastcancercured.com</a>.</p>
<p>The pathway to good health is not via drugs, which mostly cover symptoms, and often have serious long term side effects.  Some drugs interact with the food you eat in very negative ways.  Examples below.</p>
<p><strong>Possible Interaction Between Cranberry Products and Popular Blood-Thinner</strong></p>
<p>For those of you who are taking the blood thinner Warfarin (COUMADIN), Public Citizen has issued a warning.  Recent controlled studies have confirmed that people with certain genetic types were susceptible to increased blood-thinning effects of Warfarin (which can be very dangerous) when used with cranberry juice and other cranberry products.</p>
<p>If you are drinking cranberry juice, cranberries or other cranberry products, it is strongly recommended you have your blood more carefully monitored.</p>
<p><strong>LOVAZA: Boxed Warning</strong></p>
<p>LOVAZA, “a drug that is prescribed for lowering triglycerides, now has a boxed warning on its label.  “At the approved dose of 4g/day, LOVAZA has been associated with increased levels of LDL (“bad”) cholesterol and has not been shown to reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease or mortality.</p>
<p>This dose should only be used to reduce very high levels of triglycerides (more than 500 mg/dL), because such high levels of triglycerides increase the risk of pancreatitis.”</p>
<p><strong>High Trigylcerides Are Generally Diet Related</strong></p>
<p>Cause and effect:  If the problem in not genetic, then the problem is nutritional.</p>
<p>When we eat a poor or deficient diet, all kinds of nasty things will happen to us.</p>
<p>Among other things, a deficiency in Omega 3 oil can easily cause an increase in our triglyceride level.  Correct the deficiency and your triglycerides drop back to normal.</p>
<p>From research studies reported in Public Citizen, Vol. 15, No.4, it is recommended you eat oily fish twice a week and take 1 gram of omega 3 fish oil soft gel capsules per day.</p>
<p>For people needing to lower their triglycerides, or who have had coronary heart disease, 2 to 4 grams per day of EPA/DPA per day fish oil soft gel capsules is recommended.</p>
<p><strong>Congestive Heart Failure</strong></p>
<p>For myself, having had congestive heart failure some years ago, I take 3 grams of <a href="http://www.antiaginglifeextension.com/ghsomega3s/default.asp?p=ghwblog">Omega 3</a> per day, along with other supplements, which helps me maintain my heart in peak condition.</p>
<p>CHF is huge in the US.  Over 5 million people suffer from this disease which the medical profession still has no cure for.</p>
<p>Having overcome my CHF without the use of drugs, I would be happy to speak to anyone with CHF to tell them how I helped myself.</p>
<p>If you know of anyone with CHF who wants to help themselves, give them my phone number: 888-824-3745, I will be happy to tell them what I have done that gave me my life back.</p>
<p>To your good heath &amp; longevity.</p>
