Check out Mike Adam's ( " Health Ranger " ) site. Impressive and full of good info.

(Gals will like it better than guys, I think.)

Also, on VIOXX. Merck is manned by criminals, and New England Medical Journal

is assessory I trust MERCK will be sued out of business..

Dr. Abramson's Commentary

The news about Vioxx is that it's not newsVioxx was recalled by Merck because

its most recent study shows that it doubles the risk of cardiovascular disease.

The real news is that this was shown four years ago in Merck's large study of

the safety of Vioxx. The... Continue " The news about Vioxx is that it's not

///////////////////original message follows///////////////////////////////

Is it possible that the world is waking up? Are we coming out of the medical

dark ages, you suppose? Pharma is he real " terrorists " ..just look at the

numbers below.

Join me in thinking about MERCK. Have they shown criminal behavior?

The Beginning of the End of Chemical-based medcine.

 

 

A recent study published in the medical journal " The Lancet " reveals

that as many as 140,000 heart attacks

<http://www.newstarget.com/002155.html>, in the United States alone,

were caused by Vioxx <http://www.newstarget.com/002665.html>, and 44

percent of those likely died from those heart attacks. That means

more than 60,000 Americans have been killed by Vioxx if this data are

to be believed. If true, it means Vioxx has killed more Americans

than the entire Vietnam War.

 

Think about that for a moment. One drug, which was advertised and

promised as being a safe drug, a magic pill to end your pain, safer

for you than non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), has now

been shown to be responsible for as many as 60,000 fatalities in this

country alone. That's simply staggering. It's almost as if the

pharmaceutical industry <http://www.newstarget.com/001573.html> has

declared war on the health of the American public. Because, indeed,

the number of American fatalities here exceeds that of the Vietnam

War, Desert Storm and the war with Iraq combined. It also dwarfs the

number of Americans killed by terrorists or terrorist

<http://www.newstarget.com/001894.html> acts. In fact, it dwarfs the total

number of crime-related deaths in the United States over the last decade. If

these statistics are accurate, Vioxx has killed more U.S. citizens over the last

few years than all murderers, rapists, burglars and terrorists combined.

 

This fact is slowly sinking in to the psyche of the American public, both

patients and the doctors http://www.newstarget.com/000488.html>.

The upshot of it all is: Today, instead of merely discovering Vioxx is a

dangerous drug and calling for it to be pulled off the market, we are also, as a

nation, discovering the pharmaceutical industry is basically a sham. These

companies will apparently market practically

anything to people as long as they can make money doing so; and when they become

aware of the dangers of these drugs, they are likely to ignore those dangers as

long as the drugs generate sufficient profits (and as long as they can continue

to conduct misleading direct-to-consumer advertising

<http://www.newstarget.com/001482.html> allowed by the FDA).

 

In my view, Merck <http://www.newstarget.com/005043.html> pushed too hard and

too far. It got greedy and tried to make too much money on a drug that we now

know had the potential to cause heart attacks. As a result, the entire industry

has lost credibility, and the FDA is under intense fire for its collusion with

Merck in allowing the drug

to remain on the market.

 

I believe the Vioxx scandal <http://www.newstarget.com/003003.html>

and its aftermath will one day be seen as the beginning of the end of chemical

based medicine (GeGene therapy and genetic engineering: the future of medicine?

http://www.newstarget.com/007702.html>). By

chemical-based medicine, I mean medicine that relies on prescription drugs

(President's Bogus Mental Health Screening Initiative Is a Thinly Veiled Scam to

Boost Pharmaceutical Profits <http://www.newstarget.com/001688.html>) and

pharmaceuticals to alter human physiology for some sort of medical purpose. This

is an era of medicine that should have been relegated to history long ago, but

has persisted primarily because it has been so profitable. It's

an era of medicine steeped in the paradigm of the germ theory, which believed

every disease could be countered with an appropriate chemical. Thus, from the

mid-1900s on, pharmaceutical companies (The big Bush handout to pharmaceutical

companies: mandatory mental health screening for entire U.S. population @

<http://www.newstarget.com/001481.html> ) sought out specific chemicals to

counter diseases in the same way penicillin kills bacteria.

 

Yet they have taken this paradigm too far; they have tried to apply the germ

theory to diseases not caused by germs. Cancer has no germs. Diabetes is not

caused by a parasite or a microbe. Heart disease is not caused by bacteria or

viruses. These diseases are metabolic disorders, and yet conventional medicine

continues to try to treat

them with germ-theory chemicals.

 

Now we've witnessed the beginning of the end of that era of medicine. It may

take years to unravel and we may see yet more scandals and revelations of

dangerous drugs, because Vioxx is only one drug out of

thousands that are dangerous. With the internet freely spreading information,

drug companies can no longer run and hide from the fatal side effects of their

prescription drugs. We are about to see a massive change in the pharmaceutical

industry, that will ultimately

result in chemical based medicine being largely relegated to history.

 

It's going to take time, though. The current drug racket system involving the

FDA and super-powerful drug companies will take years

to disassemble. Investors, doctors and egomaniacs will defend the current system

of chemical-based medicine to their dying day. Thank goodness no men are

immortal. Real advances in scientific understanding, it seems, only emerge when

the defenders of old science finally retire or die. It is the nature of

scientific revolutions.

 

Today, we're witnessing the beginning of a revolution in medicine. Ultimately,

chemical-based medicine will be seen as a flash in the pan... a short-lived but

notable chapter in the history of human boondoggles. But until that time comes,

literally millions of people

around the world are going to suffer and be killed under the current system of

chemical-based medicine. They will be exploited for financial profit, milked for

every penny up to their last dying breath, and then hounded for collections of

medical bills (Almost a third of personal bankruptcies caused by medical bills,

study finds @

<http://www.newstarget.com/004398.html>) even after passing.
