Guest guest Posted December 4, 2004 Report Share Posted December 4, 2004 http://www.irrationalmedicine.com/ Smoke Screen Contrary to popular belief, big drug companies spend far less on research and development than on marketing. The pharmaceutical industry has the largest lobby in Washington . with more lobbyists than there are elected representatives in Congress . and contributes heavily to political campaigns. The industry claims to be innovative, but only a small fraction of its drugs are truly new; most are simply variations on older drugs. For example premenstrual dysphoric disorder (defined as severe premenstrual symptoms) is treated with Sarafem, which is just Prozac in another color at a higher price. Right now psychiatrists are advocating antidepressants for a variety of disorders, from depression and anxiety to eating problems, premenstrual tension, phobias, and obsessions and compulsions. They have become a jack-of-all-trades drug. This in itself should warn us not to trust the claims being made. http://vanokat.wholefoodfarmacy.com/ LOVE PEOPLE AND USE THINGS - NOT LOVE THINGS AND USE PEOPLE.Have nothing to do with the evil deeds of darkness, but rather expose them. Ephesians 5:11 "For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the powers, against the world forces of this darkness, against the spiritual forces of wickedness in the heavenly places." (Eph. 6:12). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
