Forced Vaccinations = Crimes Against Children

Mike Adams, the Health Ranger

Doctors utterly dismiss all reports of side effects from vaccines, pretending they do not exist. This is not merely a terrible medical science mistake on their part; it also established that the medical community is only interested in dogma, not scientific curiosity, and that it will routinely ignore any emerging facts that disagree with its own established dogma. In other words, autism isn't linked to vaccines because they say so. And why do they say so? Because they say so! (Circular logic and self-reinforced delusions... the bedrock of pharmaceutical medicine today.

This causes dramatic relief of symptoms within two to three months. side effects due to low estrogen, similar to those accompanying natural menopause (insomnia, hot flashes, vaginal dryness, and osteoporosis) do occur. Current add-back therapy with low-dose estrogen or a progestin reduces symptoms without reducing effectiveness. Higher doses of hormone therapy such as oral contraceptives may make the lesions grow, so very low doses of hormones are recommended.

Perfect Health the Natural Way

The more you turn to prescription medications, the more you expose your body to harmful side effects. If you insist on taking medication, make sure you are 100 percent aware of all the possible side effects by reading the insert or going onto the drug company's Web site. But I would strongly urge you to change your diet as suggested above, rather than go on medication, so that you treat the cause and not just the symptom.

Don't Go to the Cosmetics Counter Without Me, 7th Edition

Accutane is one of the last options to consider in this lineup of last resorts because of its very serious potential side effects, especially if a woman becomes pregnant while using it, which is why its use must be discussed with your physician. However, Accutane is the only option that can potentially cure breakouts; all of the other methods merely keep the problem reduced or at bay. More than 50% of the people who take Accutane for one round never break out again, and it eliminates oily skin altogether.
Whatever course of action you take should be discussed at length with your dermatologist, who, like you, should also be carefully monitoring you for any side effects. Photodynamic Therapy: This treatment, also called Light Therapy, has been shown to effectively treat acne (Source: Journal of Cosmetic Laser Therapy, June 2004, pages 91-95).
Ten percent benzoyl peroxide is a potent disinfectant for blemishes, and in general it is best to start with lower strengths to see if those work for you without pronounced side effects such as dryness or flaking. All told, with three out of four products in this system faltering, the only conclusion is to ignore this kit and keep in mind that separate benzoyl peroxide products are available from Clearasil, Neutrogena, and other drugstore lines. © Ultra Daily Face Wash ($6.99 for 6.

Movie Review: I am Legend, Will Smith and the Dangers of Playing God with Food and Medicine

Mike Adams, the Health Ranger

And yet it sounds a lot like some of the side effects of the viral injection imagined in I Am Legend. Most people think the movie is pure fiction, but I happen to think it strikes a chord of truth: Modern medicine is, indeed, quite capable of making a monumental mistake that unleashes a deadly virus and devastates humankind. Foreshadowing Disasters Yet to Come From Biotech I hope that I Am Legend is looked at as more than just a work of fiction. It should also serve as a reminder to us all, teaching us to act with extreme caution when we're considering playing God with human DNA.

However, clinicians will report cases of patients who appear to have had systemic progestin side effects from the Mirena. The Mirena is an important option in contraception—a method that provides 99 percent protection and decreases menstrual pain and heavy flows. Insertion of an IUD must be done in a practitioner's office. Most women report nothing more than light cramping. STI testing for chlamydia and gonorrhea should precede insertion. Infections caused by the insertion itself are rare and may occur approximately 1 percent of the time, within 30 days of insertion.

FDA approves pill that stops periods; is womanhood a disease? (opinion)

How many women might die from the side effects of this drug? No one knows. It could be zero or a hundred thousand. If no more than 50,000 women are ultimately killed by it, the FDA likely claim that's still within a safety margin and that "the drug benefits outweigh its risks!" What, exactly, is the level of fatalities required for the FDA to consider a drug "too dangerous?" Because apparently a drug that kills 50,000 people is not dangerous enough for the FDA to restrict its use. In fact, the FDA has never announced what level of fatalities it considers high enough to trigger a drug recall.

The top ten consumer questions about superfruit juices: Pomegranate, blueberry, acai and cherry

One thing for sure is that drinking pomegranate juice has no negative side effects. You'll be healthier and happier by consuming this miraculous fruit on a daily basis. Enjoy!

"Miracle" weight loss drug Alli delivers more than you bargained for (diapers optional)

Mike Adams, the Health Ranger
See article keywords and concepts
Imagine what happens when these side effects kick in while you're in the hot tub! Better yet, see the video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r7JMzDjIkVc (it's called "Hot Tub Mishap"). One mishap like that and you'll literally have to move to a new city and try to make new friends who hopefully haven't seen your video on YouTube. Yep: All it takes is one Alli accident + some creep at the office with a web cam mobile phone, and your ass is all over the internet in a very humiliating way. If you don't believe me, check out "Karate Guy Craps In His Pants" at http://www.youtube.com/watch?
Speaking of shorts, Alli has some very entertaining side effects. The drug can cause explosive oily stools to involuntarily eject from your bowels. While that may sound like fun if you're at a frat party, it's certainly not an enjoyable experience when commuting, driving, or hanging out at the office. Dirtying your britches is bound to make the gossip rounds in mere minutes, earning you new nicknames and a repulsive, date-spoiling reputation that will be difficult to overcome.

Canadian Cancer Society announces national program to prevent cancer using vitamin D

Actually, there are side effects: Reduced risk of diabetes, obesity, depression, mental disorders and all sorts of cancers. Vitamin D is the miracle medicine the cancer industry claims it's searching for when it asks you to donate for those "run for the cure" events. But the cure already exists, and it's available for free. When it comes to the cancer industry, Canada is the first western nation to stand up and say, "The Emperor has no clothes!
Rather, the government actually conspires with pharmaceutical companies and non-profit disease groups to keep the American public in a state of chronic disease through nutritional deficiencies, exposure to toxic chemicals and side effects of pharmaceuticals. And it's working! The U.S. is the most diseased nation in the world, sporting higher rates of degenerative disease (cancer, diabetes, heart disease, depression and obesity, combined) than any other nation. On top of that -- get this -- we pay the highest health care costs in the world! All that money apparently isn't doing any good.

Senate, House of Representatives and the White House where it is hoped that the drug-laced skin patches will either restore normal brain function or remove some politicians from office due to toxic side effects. Branding patients like cattle, American style! The American Medical Association has publicly announced its support for the microchipping of patients using tiny RFID transmitters injected under the skin.

They are merely seductive, harmful synthetic substances that will inevitably produce harmful side effects. If you think your periods are painful today, just imagine the emotional pain of being diagnosed with breast cancer, undergoing chemotherapy that nearly kills you and having a mastectomy. Once you start down the path of chemical suppression of symptoms of pain, you begin a journey into the world of harmful medicine that will only leave you diseased and bankrupt, addicted to a dozen pharmaceuticals and suffering from liver failure, kidney disease, brain fog and chronic pain.

Big Pharma takes over veterinary medicine; dogs and cats drugged with chemicals for profit

Mike Adams, the Health Ranger
See article keywords and concepts
Popular anti-flea and anti-tick medications, all by themselves, are so toxic to the liver of any animal that if they were prescribed to humans, their side effects would make the Vioxx fiasco look like a harmless prank. The idea of actually feeding your dog such high doses of poison that it ends up in the skin tissues where it kills ticks and fleas should be horrifying to any intelligent pet owner, yet most pet owners just buy what their vet tells them to buy, and they feed one chemical after another to their pets, oblivious to the fact that they're actually poisoning them.

The aloe vera miracle: A natural medicine for cancer, cholesterol, diabetes, inflammation, IBS, and other health conditions

Plus, this is far safer than using statin drugs, which have extremely harmful negative side effects while depleting the body of nutrients such as CoQ10. My advice to anyone on statin drugs is to strongly consider using high doses of aloe vera + blueberries to safety transition off statin drugs (all under the supervision of a naturopathic physician, of course). Aloe vera won't kill you like statin drugs can, either. Aloe is completely safe to eat like a food. Given the cholesterol benefits of aloe and blueberries, statin drugs are actually obsolete.

28 Senators vote to maintain Big Pharma monopoly over U.S. consumers; Republicans oppose free trade for medicine

Every drug has unintended side effects which include nutritional deficiencies, biochemical imbalances, liver damage, heart damage and even death. Vioxx alone -- which was approved by the FDA and heavily pushed by drug company advertising -- reportedly killed well over 50,000 Americans according to the FDA's own senior drug safety scientist Dr. David Graham.

After a cancer diagnosis: Crucial questions to consider about chemotherapy vs. naturopathic cancer treatments

Mike Adams, the Health Ranger
See article keywords and concepts
Embrace natural medicine from day one and you'll never have to endure the permanent damage of chemotherapy, the extremely harmful side effects of pharmaceuticals, or the lifetime maiming and scar tissue associated with surgery. If you choose natural medicine or alternative medicine (I am using the terms interchangeably here), you always have the potential to return to a perfect state of health, because you have not harmed your vital organs in the process.

Are antidepressant drugs an accomplice in the Virginia Tech shootings? (opinion)

Mike Adams, the Health Ranger
See article keywords and concepts
Sadly, these 32 dead students at Virginia Tech now join the list of those killed by pharmaecutical side effects. And yet nobody in the mainstream media seems to be reporting about the drugs. Don't you find it curious that when 100,000+ Americans are killed in their homes and beds each year, dying from heart attacks and strokes caused by pharmaceuticals, there's virtually no news coverage, but when mind-altering drugs cause a student to pick up guns and blow away 32 classmates, it's suddenly front-page news everywhere?

According to Chinese clinical studies, these herbs, and others that have been added to the list of useful items over the centuries, can greatly increase the effectiveness of modern drugs, reduce their side effects, and sometimes replace them completely. Approximately five hundred species of plants are listed as official drugs in China. There are an additional five thousand species used as traditional medicines, folk medicines, or local medicines by ethnic groups in various parts of China.

Americans fed up with drug industry influence, FDA corruption, reveals remarkable Consumer Reports survey

The survey did not, however, reveal whether these people were in fact suffering from deterimental cognitive side effects at the moment they were taking the survey. Statistically, it seems reasonable to assume that approximately half of the adults taking the survey were on drugs at the time they were answering the survey questions.

It's simple, safe and virtually free, and it has no negative side effects, requires no patent royalties, and is available right now to everyone. If there were ever a cancer prevention strategy to get behind, this is it! The people in the cancer industry, if they had any sense, should be leaping out of their chairs, fumbling over each other in a mad rush to the press conference podium to announce their support for vitamin D. And yet what do we hear in the United States? Complete apathy.

Omega-3 supplements rapidly eliminate ADD, ADHD and bipolar disorder in children

Half of the participants experienced a rapid 30 percent reduction in symptoms with no side effects. "What this study shows is that every child with ADD, bipolar or any other mood disorder should be on OmegaBrite," said Dr. John Ratey, author of the best-selling Driven to Distraction and a well-respected expert on ADD. "And the only side effect is a longer life." "This is great news for parents," said Dr. Carol Locke, who served on the Harvard Medical School faculty for 14 years before creating OmegaBrite. "Parents are always struggling with how best to help their children.

What also became evident over time were the incredibly harsh side effects of the first antipsychotics: involuntary muscle movements, endless pacing (or the "Thorazine shuffle," as it became known), and for some, a horrible restlessness, the feeling of needing to crawl out of one's skin. Thorazine was brought to America by the drug company Smith Kline & French, and it was promptly given to almost all patients in all mental hospitals in the United States.66 A colleague of mine was an orderly at Manhattan State Psychiatric Hospital when Thorazine was introduced.

The top ten consumer questions about superfruit juices: Pomegranate, blueberry, acai and cherry

I find this to be a curious question, borrowed from the pharmaceutical mindset of the population where everything has to have a dosage and side effects disclaimer. My opinion? Drink as much as you want. This isn't some drug. You can't overdose on pomegranate juice. Just drink at least one serving (8 oz.) a day if you want any serious health benefits. Pom juice is an excellent addition to any smoothie, by the way, and I've published a collection of healthy smoothie recipes in my book, Superfood Smoothies. Are the health benefits of pomegranate really so miraculous? Yes they are.

New online consumer health guide reveals nutritional deficiencies caused by prescription drugs

Mike Adams, the Health Ranger
See article keywords and concepts
All prescription drugs have unintended side effects, and many drugs deplete the body of essential nutrients. Today, most consumers are not being told about these drug-induced nutritional deficiencies, and they continue taking pharmaceuticals without knowing they are often leaving their body in a dangerous state of nutrient depletion that can lead to chronic degenerative disease.

The hoax of modern medicine: Seven facts you need to know

Mike Adams, the Health Ranger
See article keywords and concepts
Even "successful" drugs only manage symptoms, usually at the cost of interfering with other physiological functions that will cause side effects down the road. There is no such thing as a drug without a side effect. Fact #4: There is no financial incentive for anyone in today's system of medicine (drug companies, hospitals, doctors, etc.) to actually make patients well. Profits are found in continued sickness, not wellness or prevention.
