THE ROLE OF THE FDA

[Guest guest]

The Claim There is " No Scientific Evidence " for Alternative Treatments

The budget for people doing serious research on alternative treatment

plans is virtually zero. One reason for this is that the FDA will not

give formal permission for anyone to do research on alternative

treatments on live patients. In other words, the government cronies

of the pharmaceutical industry do everything in their power to stop

alternative treatment research. That way they can claim there is " no

scientific evidence " for alternative treatments.

 

Because the FDA, NIH (National Institute of Health, a government

agency) and NCI (a division of the NIH) refuse to do legitimate and

honest research into alternative treatments, they are artificially

manufacturing a situation where there is " no scientific evidence " for

alternative treatments (according to their definition of " science " ),

and because there is " no scientific evidence " for alternative

treatments, these agencies, along with the AMA, have legal power to

suppress and harass alternative treatment practitioners, thus making

sure there is " no scientific evidence. " It is a " self-fulfilling

prophesy. "

 

In other words, it is like Jim predicting John is going to die within

5 hours, and then Jim pulls out a gun and shoots John, thus

fulfilling his own prophesy. The pharmaceutical industry's cronies

claim there is " no scientific evidence " for natural treatments, then

they do everything in their power to insure there is " no scientific

evidence. "

 

But that is not all. In a jury trial, one or two witnesses is

enough " evidence " for a jury. But with the FDA, NIH and NCI, the tens

of thousands of witnesses, who have been cured by alternative

treatments, are not allowed to testify. Their testimony is not

admitted as evidence. Nor are the hundreds of scientific studies on

natural treatments for cancer.

 

The ultimate goal of the FDA, which they have achieved, is to only

allow scientific evidence that comes from the pharmaceutical

industry. Since the pharmaceutical industry does not research

alternative treatments for cancer (because it is not profitable), by

limiting " research " to the pharmaceutical industry they have stopped

any possibility that there will ever be any " scientific " evidence for

alternative treatments for cancer. On top of this, the pharmaceutical

industry are the biggest scientific liars on earth. Many, many of

their studies have been shown to be fraudulent. On top of that the

FDA has made the approval process so expensive, there is no way that

any natural product manufacturer can afford to get a natural product

approved.

 

There is absolutely nothing more important for our corrupt government

agencies to accomplish (from the perspective of the pharmaceutical

industry) than to insure there is " no scientific evidence " for

alternative treatments. With this great lie in hand, everyone on the

side of orthodox medicine has the tools they need to crush

alternative medicine and perpetuate the great lie that there is no

scientific evidence. Ignoring the evidence and suppressing the truth

about the scientific evidence of alternative treatments are to the

conspiracy, what an engine is to a truck.

 

To be technical, the official job of the FDA and other " health "

agencies of the U.S. Government (i.e. this is why they were created

in the first place) is to protect the profits of the big

pharmaceutical and chemical companies, which have had, and still

have, enormous influence in the U.S. government. That is the typical

job of all government agencies when they are created, each has a

sector of the corporate world to protect, and each is created because

of the influence of big corporations.

 

I will be more specific. A corporation has no police powers. The FDA

was specifically created to give Big Pharma police powers. Whenever

Big Pharma wants something, they simply go to one of their

departments (the FDA in this case) and have the FDA " take care of

it. "

 

When they are not using their police powers for Big Pharma, their

assigned task is to suppress all truth and all scientific evidence

for alternative treatments for cancer, heart disease prevention, etc.

etc. Of course their real objective is masked behind the facade of

pretending to be concerned about the health of the American people.

No doubt many of the lower level employees of the FDA really are

concerned about the health of the American people, but lower level

employees have no influence with the top executives, who are the main

beneficiaries of the pharmaceutical money pot.

 

The hypocrisy of the FDA, AMA, Big Pharma, etc. is unbelievable. They

claim that they do not want patients to be exposed to alternative

treatments for cancer on grounds of their great humanitarianism. This

is like calling Stalin and Hitler humanitarians. It is like Hitler

saying that he doesn't want the Jews to live in their own houses

because there might be cockroaches and germs in their houses, so he

sends them to the gas chambers! Is there no bottom to the hypocrisy

and lies of the medical leaders, journalists, politicians and above

all, pharmaceutical owners, executives and key employees? Apparently

not.

 

 

" The butchers of surgery, chemotherapy and radiation have grown rich

on the mutilated bodies of millions of innnocent victims while public

health officials sold their souls. "

Barry Lynes, The Healing of Cancer, The Cures - the Cover-ups and the

Solution Now! - page 68

 

My Challenge to the FDA

Let us suppose there were two groups of recently diagnosed cancer

patients. Each group has 1,000 patients. Each group is similar in

terms of the age of the patient, the type of cancer, the stage at

diagnosis, etc. No one in either group has had any cancer treatments,

and no one is over 65 years old (because this is a ten year study).

Finally, each person must have at least Stage III cancer at time of

diagnosis.

 

Now I challenge the medical establishment to a contest. I will put

together a team of M.D.s, alternative cancer experts, etc. and we

will treat one of the groups. Orthodox medicine will treat the other

group with orthodox treatments that are commonly used by oncologists.

There is an understanding that the patients in the orthodox group are

not allowed to take any natural substances for the treatment of their

cancer (they can take well-advertised natural substances for the

symptoms of chemotherapy, however).

 

In ten years, which group will have the most people still surviving?

Our group will be guaranteed to have at least 80% still living, but

probably over 90% will still be living. The other group will probably

have less than 10% still living, and likely less than 5%.

 

The contest will be decided by 10-year survival rates, and will have

absolutely nothing to do with symptoms (e.g. tumor shrinkage).

 

You would think that our diligent government agencies would welcome

such a contest. Don't kid yourself. The NIH would never fund such a

study. The FDA would never allow it on live patients. The AMA would

yank the license of any M.D. that participated on our side. Various

governments would jail any other person on our team for " practicing

medicine without a license. "

 

In short, only Congress could legislate such a contest. However,

there are more Big Pharma lobbyists than their are congressmen and

congresswomen.

 

Do you see the picture? Organized medicine doesn't want anyone to

know the truth about alternative treatments for cancer, because they

are not profitable to them!! For example, there are more than a dozen

nutrients in purple grapes, with their seeds and skin, that orthodox

medicine admits selectively kill cancer cells. But they don't want

any studies with purple grapes (as my article talks about them) or

any other alternative treatment for cancer.

 

Ponder this carefully, there has never been, and will never be a

legitimate side-by-side study between alternative treatments and

orthodox treatments (where alternative treatment experts control the

alternative patients). The one study that did that (Pauling and

Cameron) was so distressing to orthodox medicine that they did three

bogus studies at the Mayo Clinic (which receives millions of dollars

in cancer " research " money) to suppress the truth.

 

They do everything in their power to crush the evidence for

alternative treatments for cancer, so they can say: " there is no

scientific evidence for alternative treatments. " The logic they

present to the public is this: " there is no scientific evidence for

alternative treatments, so we will not allow any studies of

alternative treatments, even though purple grapes contain more than a

dozen nutrients that selectively kill cancer cells. "

 

It is absolutely critical to the many billions of dollars in profits

every year of orthodox medicine that there are no valid studies using

alternative treatments for cancer. The most important thing for our

totally corrupt federal government is to protect the profits of the

big corporations.

 

 

The Big Picture

Now let's suppose that I manufactured a pill that contained two dozen

nutrients, all proven to selectively kill cancer cells, and that this

pill cures cancer (in conjunction with a good cancer diet). Consider

this:

 

If I put anything on the bottle (i.e. the label) that stated these

pills cured cancer, the totally corrupt Food and Drug Administration

would shut me down for selling unapproved cancer treatments

(chemotherapy is, of course, approved).

 

If I didn't put anything on the label about cancer, but put the

information on my web site, the equally corrupt Federal Trade

Commission (FTC) would shut me down for advertising unapproved cancer

treatments. (Note: Actually, the FDA has the authority to enforce the

key FTC law.)

 

Thus, information about my product could not be put in any proximity

to the product itself.

 

Now let's suppose that an M.D. recommended my product to a cancer

patient. The totally corrupt American Medical Association would yank

the license of the doctor for recommending " unproven " treatments.

 

Now let's suppose that an alternative health doctor recommended my

product to a cancer patient. The totally corrupt American Medical

Association could have the person arrested (in a sting operation)

for " practicing medicine without a license. "

 

Now let's suppose a person wrote a book on how to cure cancer, and it

was a very viable treatment. No one could touch him - right? I will

tell you what happened in one instance. Someone was hired to plant

explosives on his property, then the feds came in and arrested him

(or the feds brought the explosives with them when they searched his

property - I don't know which happened) for having illegal explosives

on his property.

 

Someone should write a book on the more than 100 instances where the

things I just mentioned really happened. Yes, the feds did shut down

some real quacks. But the feds couldn't care less whether the person

cures cancer or not, they will shut down everybody, even the people

who do cure cancer. And yes, people have been murdered (e.g. an

associate of Royal Rife, a laetrile doctor, to mention but two), labs

have been burnt to the ground, etc.

 

Our own government has very cleverly blocked almost all forms of

communication about alternative treatments for cancer, and it has all

been done in total secrecy because the press has sold out to the

highest bidder - Big Pharma.

 

Here is the really scary part. It doesn't matter whether the

President is a Republican or a Democrat. It doesn't matter whether

the House is controlled by the Republicans or the Democrats. It

doesn't matter whether the Senate is controlled by the Republicans or

the Democrats. The suppression of the truth about cancer treatments

continues in force, with few phyrric victories of those interested in

truth. Do you remember my discussion on " hard issues? "

 

 

L-Tryptophan and Prozac

While the major job of the FDA is to suppress all scientific evidence

for alternative treatments for cancer and heart disease prevention,

that is not all they do. It is also their job to suppress the

availability of alternative medicines. They are masters at that too.

Everyone is aware of Prozac and the many other drugs used and

approved to treat depression and other mental illnesses. In the July,

2003 Reader's Digest (who else) there was an article on teenage

depression and drugs like Prozac (this was not the only pro-orthodox

article in this issue). The article originally appeared in Newsweek,

yet another magazine loyal to their advertisers.

 

This article talks about the growing number of teenagers who are

depressed. The solution? Of course it is to run to your doctor and

get prescription drugs and/or therapy if there is even the slightest

hint your child might be depressed. (Obviously, a suicidal child

should see a professional.)

 

The article, of course, doesn't talk about alternative treatments for

teenage depression. How about parents spending more time with their

children? How about parents talking to their children and actually

listening to their children? How about parents becoming friends with

their children? How about parents setting a better example for their

children and teaching them by example not to worship popularity and

money? How about parents putting less pressure on their children " to

succeed " in school and in life? The article mentions stress as a

cause, but makes no effort to explain how to reduce stress by using

the family.

 

Then there are the food substances and additives that cause emotional

disturbances, such as aspartame, Monosodium Glutamate, refined sugar,

food dyes, food allergies, etc. etc. Of course they didn't mention

any of these things either because orthodox medicine treats symptoms,

not causes. Newsweek and Reader's Digest want your children to get

hooked on prescription drugs.

 

As it turns out, there are alternative medical treatments for

depression. Foremost among these is L-Tryptophan, a critical amino

acid the body cannot manufacture for itself. Both L-Tryptophan and

Prozac work with serotonin, a chemical that has to do with how we

feel.

 

 

" Elevated levels of serotonin in the body often result in the relief

of depression, as well as substantial reduction in pain sensitivity,

anxiety and stress. Prozac, as well as other new anti-depressant

drugs such as Paxil and Zoloft, attempt to enhance levels of

serotonin by working on whatever amounts of it already exist in the

body (these drugs are known as selective serotonin reuptake

inhibitors). None of these drugs, however, produce serotonin. In

contrast, ingested L-Tryptophan acts to produce serotonin, even in

individuals who generate little serotonin of their own. The most

effective way to elevate levels of serotonin would be to use a

serotonin producer rather than a serotonin enhancer. "

Dean Wolfe Manders, Ph.D. in http://www.ceri.com/trypto.htm

Thus it is clear that L-Tryptophan and Prozac are in competition with

each other. Prozac is a drug that fools the body and L-Typtophan is

an amino acid that creates more serotonin. Prozac, and similar drugs,

have been shown to have deadly side-effects. But I won't get into

that.

 

So what is the FDA going to do? It is deadly Prozac versus harmless

and far more effective L-Tryptophan. This is what they did:

 

 

" In the fall of 1989, the FDA recalled L-Tryptophan, an amino acid

nutritional supplement, stating that it caused a rare and deadly flu-

like condition (Eosinophilia-Myalgia Syndrome — EMS). On March 22,

1990, the FDA banned the public sale dietary of L-Tryptophan

completely. This ban continues today.

On March 26, 1990, Newsweek featured a lead article praising the

virtues of the anti-depressant drug Prozac. Its multi-color cover

displayed a floating, gigantic green and white capsule of Prozac with

the caption: " Prozac: A Breakthrough Drug for Depression. "

 

The fact that the FDA ban of L-Tryptophan and the Newsweek Prozac

cover story occurred within four days of each other went unnoticed by

both the media and the public. Yet, to those who understand the

effective properties of L-Tryptophan and Prozac, the concurrence

seems " unbelievably coincidental. " The link here is the brain

neurotransmitter serotonin — a biochemical nerve signal conductor.

The action of Prozac and L-Tryptophan are both involved with

serotonin, but in totally different ways. "

ibid

 

You need to understand that it takes far more than 4 days to get an

issue of Time out the door. Thus, Time magazine was working on the

Prozac article weeks before the FDA issued their order. You should

also understand that the FDA did not prove that L-Tryptophan was

dangerous. They banned it because a drug company issued a

contaminated batch of L-Tryptophan.

 

Normally, when a drug company issues a bad batch of a product, which

is quite common, the FDA fines the company and may have some other

punishment for the company. But the FDA does not ban the product! But

in this case the FDA banned the harmless and useful product. Its real

crime? Competing with Big Pharma.

 

This " double standard " is standard operating procedure for the

totally corrupt FDA.

 

Thus we have a situation where Congress has allowed for several

decades for tobacco products to be manufactured and sold, which are

known to kill hundreds of thousands of Americans every year, but at

the same time Congress has allowed the FDA to ban L-Tryptophan.

 

 

" The public availability of L-Tryptophan is too important an issue

only to be argued and shrouded within a scientific debate that

remains, ultimately, mystifying to the vast majority of Americans.

There are many obvious facts worthy of public attention, and public

concern. For example, consider the following:

 

On February 9, 1993, a United States government patent (#5185157) was

issued to use L-Tryptophan to treat, and cure EMS, the very same

deadly flu-like condition which prompted the FDA to take L-Tryptophan

off the market in 1989.

Notwithstanding its public ban and import alert on L-Tryptophan, the

FDA today allows Ajinomoto U.S.A. the right to import from Japan

human-use L-Tryptophan. Distributed from the Ajinomoto plant in

Raleigh, North Carolina, the L-Tryptophan is then sold to, and

through, a network of compounding pharmacies across the United

States. Purchased by individuals only under a physician's order, L-

Tryptophan emerges as a new prescription drug in the serotonin

marketplace; one hundred 500 mg capsules cost about $75 —

approximately five times more than if they were sold as a dietary

supplement.

Since the FDA holds the political mandate and power of a public

regulatory agency established, ostensibly, to protect people from raw

corporate interests in drug production and distribution, the actions

of the FDA in concert with Ajinomoto U.S.A. are illuminating. By

publicly banning L-Tryptophan from its dietary supplement status and

price, while allowing L-Tryptophan to be sold as a high-priced

prescription drug, the naked duplicity of FDA L-Tryptophan policy is

revealed.

During and after the 1989 EMS outbreak, the FDA did not totally ban

the use of L-Tryptophan in humans — then, as today, the FDA has

granted the pharmaceutical industry the protected right to use L-

Tryptophan in hospital settings. Manufactured by Abbott Laboratories,

the amino acid injectable solutions Aminosyn and Aminosyn II contain

as much as 200 mg of L-Tryptophan. (Moreover, L-Tryptophan has never

been removed from baby food produced and sold within the United

States.)

While the FDA has banned the public sale and use of safe, non-

contaminated, dietary supplement L-Tryptophan for people, the United

States Department of Agriculture still sanctions the legal sale and

use of non-contaminated L-Tryptophan for animals. Today, as in the

past, feed grade L-Tryptophan continues to be used as a nutritional

and bulk feed additive by the commercial hog and chicken farming

industry. Additionally, L-Tryptophan is now available for use by

veterinarians in caring for horses and pets. Outside of the United

States, in countries such as Canada, the Netherlands, Germany,

England, and others, L-Tryptophan is widely used. Nowhere, have any

serious or widespread health problems occurred. "

Import Alerts

You may have noticed that L-Tryptophan was on an " import alert " list.

An import alert is a way for the FDA to suppress the importation of a

natural substance that competes with Big Pharma. Imagine this: a

critical amino acid is put on an import alert because a

pharmaceutical company made a contaminated batch of it. Meanwhile,

cigarettes are still legal and only require a warning label.

There have been import alerts issued for virtually every useful

cancer supplement. For example, here is a short list of potent

alternative cancer treatments that have been found on import alerts:

Essiac Tea

714-X or 714X

anything from Dr. Hans A. Nieper

immuno-augmentative therapy (IAT)

laetrile

shark cartilage

Dimethyl Sulfoxide (DMSO)

etc.

 

Two things you should know about import alerts. As you might guess,

the justification for these alerts is virtually always because there

is " no scientific evidence " these treatments work. Are you surprised?

But there is something else you need to know. Anti-alternative

organizations, such as quackwatch, use the import alerts as their

evidence that a particular treatment doesn't work. In other words,

the corruption of the FDA, and their lust for a piece of the

pharmaceutical money pie, is used as evidence an alternative

treatment plan doesn't work. How is that for coming full circle?

 

 

Codex Alimentarius Commission (CAC or simply: Codex)

What the FDA is to the U.S. government, Codex Alimentarius is to the

United Nations. If you know anything about the U.N. then it should

come as no surprise to you that Codex is just as corrupt as the FDA,

if not more so. I say that because of the way Codex is organized.

Pharamaceutical company employees can and do sit on the key governing

committees of Codex. Corruption in Europe and other countries is far

more open than it is in America.

 

I quote from Dr. Rath, who has both cancer treatment and heart

disease prevention protocols:

 

 

" Dr. Mathias Rath, one of the most vocal and credible of opponents to

the CAC is, according to many, also among the leading American

researchers in cardiovascular disease. The German-born California

resident was a co-worker of Nobel prize winner Dr. Linus Pauling. Dr.

Pauling, for those requiring testimony from the most heavily

credentialed of scientists, won two Nobel prizes and is the only

scientist to have ever done so in different, unrelated categories.

Dr. Rath, addressing a conference on alternative medicine in

Chemnitz, Germany, outlined the various dangers inherent in the Codex

document. Among them are the commission's recommendations that

vitamins and minerals be placed, along with herbs and " botanicals " ,

in the category of controlled prescription substances. The only

purpose for this, Rath and others maintain, would be to provide a

seemingly viable reason to raise the price of food supplements to

prescription levels. This, Rath also claims, stems from the

pharmaceutical company's unrestrained greed for profit and the

elimination of the public's easy access to effectual natural remedies

that would " rob " the drug companies of exorbitant profits. As an

example of this he cites his research into the simple use of vitamin

C, in concert with other substances, for the virtual elimination of

cardiovascular disease from test subjects.

 

Rath claims that after his clinically-controlled therapy produced

astounding results in the reduction of cardiovascular disease and,

subsequently being endorsed by Linus Pauling, the Roche Corporation,

anticipating an increased demand for vitamin C, artificially elevated

the price of its raw materials for production of that vitamin. This

action on the part of Roche, " the German Bayer Corporation and the

U.S. firm Archer-Daniels-Midland (ADM), " resulted, Rath claims, in

the formation of a cartel for the purpose of " criminal price fixing. "

This claim is strongly substantiated by the U.S. government's

subsequent prosecution of ADM for that very crime. "

http://thewinds.arcsnet.net/archive/newworld/codex9-97.html

 

The U.S. Congress, who will sell-out to anyone walking by their

office building with money in hand, passed a law that states that

American sovereignty is irrelevant and that Codex should have control

over what can and cannot be sold and how it is classified. The FDA

vehemently denies Codex has any authority over it, and the soap opera

goes on and on.

 

 

It Gets Worse

The medical establishment loves it when someone on alternative

treatments dies. I remember looking at a web site owned by an

orthodox medicine cancer clinic. It told the story of a person on

hydrazine sulphate (one of the top 50), who died of liver

complications. It is a typical example of only telling one side of

the story. For example, assuming the story is true (and there are

significant reasons to believe it is not true):

1) They didn't tell you how damaged the person's liver was before the

person started alternative treatments. No alternative treatment can

fix a liver destroyed by cancer and chemotherapy before the treatment

even begins. (Note: Just because a person has liver cancer does NOT

mean that the liver is damaged beyond repair.)

2) They didn't tell you the dosage of hydrazine sulphate the patient

used. It is well known that a person should not take a higher dose of

hydrazine sulphate (H.S.) than advised (hopefully, the patient got

good advice from their vendor). There are some treatment plans

where " more is not better, " and H.S. is one of them.

 

The fact of the matter is that H.S. has an incredible safety record

when taken in recommended dosages (its safety record is far better

than any chemotherapy drug). But more importantly, why didn't this

same web site talk about the nearly 33,000 people cured of cancer by

Dr. Kelley. Why didn't they post testimonials of local people who

were cured with natural means (e.g. Essiac Tea, the Raw Food diet,

etc.).

 

But there is more to it than that. Why did this person die? Was it

because the medical establishment suppressed important information

about alternative treatments, and because of this, this person chose

the wrong treatment plan for his situation? For example, if this

person had advanced terminal cancer before he went on alternative

treatments, hydrazine sulphate would have been a very poor choice for

his situation. If the medical community supported alternative

treatments for cancer, someone could have told him that information.

Did he die because he was prevented from being monitored by a medical

doctor by the AMA?

 

The chances are, the main reason this person died is because good

information about alternative treatments for cancer are suppressed by

orthodox medicine. Did this clinic talk about that? Obviously not. It

is simply part of the ongoing propaganda campaign to discredit

alternative treatments to get money.

 

The FDA and the rest of the medical establishment has not only

stopped you from knowing the truth about alternative treatments, they

have also stopped you from knowing exact " cure rates " (alternative

definition) for: specific types of cancer, for specific types of

treatment plans, diagnosed at specific stages. Furthermore, they have

virtually stopped you from being able to be treated by a licensed

medical doctor. Thus, if you want to use alternative treatments, you

are probably going to have to treat and monitor yourself.

Furthermore, you are going to have to pick a treatment plan yourself,

without the benefit of a lot of good statistical information.

 

Thus, let me summarize what the job of the FDA, AMA, NIH, NCI, ACS,

cancer research organizations, ad nauseum, is:

1) Suppress any attempt by anyone to produce " scientific evidence "

for alternative treatments for cancer,

2) Suppress the availability of natural products to patients,

3) Suppress the importation into the United States of natural

products that treat cancer,

4) Suppress any useful statistical information about alternative

treatments for cancer.

 

But there is another way to summarize the job of the FDA, ad nauseum:

The job of the FDA is to suppress all information about alternative

treatments so that people will not know that alternative treatments

for cancer even exist. But if they do find out alternative treatments

exist, they won't know the truth about how good alternative

treatments are. Or if they do try to use alternative treatments they

will pick the wrong treatment protocol because the FDA suppresses any

possible good statistical information about alternative treatments

for cancer.

 

They have covered all of the bases quite well and they have a wide

array of sophisticated " tools " to do their job. And it is our tax

dollars that fund their protection of Big Pharma's profits. A top

executive of the FDA can expect to be a millionaire within three

years of quitting the FDA.
