ABC News Daily Dose series on the dangers of supplements

[Guest guest]

This week ABC News is running a series of segments called " The Daily

Dose " on its nightly news show exposing the " dangers of supplements. "

Good Lord, ABC, how about the dangers of FDA-approved drugs? How about

reporting on the number of people killed by conventional medicine every

year?

Once more, and for the millionth time, it''s past due for us to start letter

writing campaigns " demanding " that nutritional supplements be discussed not

simply by people that oppose them, but by people that support their use, just to

see if we notice a difference in the opinions expressed by the two sides. The

" establishment " (the news media, the pharmaceutical houses, the majority of

people working in medicine) is determined to undermine our confidence in

alternative medicine, so it's our responsibility to oppose these efforts by

demanding that both sides be heard, and that means hearing people genuinely

supportive of the use of nutritional supplements and generally opposed to a

reliance on pharmaceutical medicine.

 

Let's get to work.
