The Nature of the Pharmaceutical Industry

----

----------

 

The natural purpose and driving force of the pharmaceutical industry

is to increase sales of pharmaceutical drugs for ongoing diseases and

to find new diseases to market existing drugs.

 

 

By this very nature, the pharmaceutical industry has no interest in

curing diseases. The eradication of any disease inevitably destroys a

multi-billion dollar market of prescription drugs as a source of

revenues. Therefore, pharmaceutical drugs are primarily developed to

relieve symptoms, but not to cure.

 

 

If eradication therapies for diseases are discovered and developed,

the pharmaceutical industry has an inherent interest to suppress,

discredit and obstruct these medical breakthroughs in order to make

sure that diseases continue as the very basis for a lucrative

prescription drug market.

 

 

The economic interest of the pharmaceutical industry itself is the

main reason why no medical breakthrough has been made for the control

of the most common diseases such as cardiovascular disease, high

blood pressure, heart failure, diabetes, cancer, and osteoporosis,

and why these diseases continue like epidemics on a worldwide scale.

 

 

For the same economic reasons, the pharmaceutical industry has now

formed an international cartel by the code name " Codex Alimentarius "

with the aim to outlaw any health information in connection with

vitamins and to limit free access to natural therapies on a worldwide

scale.

 

 

At the same time, the pharmaceutical companies withhold public

information about the effects and risks of prescription drugs and

life-threatening side effects are omitted or openly denied.

 

 

In order to assure the status quo of this deceptive scheme, a legion

of pharmaceutical lobbyists is employed to influence legislation,

control regulatory agencies (e.g. FDA), and manipulate medical

research and education. Expensive advertising campaigns and PR

agencies are used to deceiving the public.

 

 

Millions of people and patients around the world are defrauded twice:

A major portion of their income is used up to finance the exploding

profits of the pharmaceutical industry. In return, they are offered a

medicine that does not even cure.

More Deaths Than in All Wars of Mankind Combined

 

 

As a direct consequence of the pharmaceutical business, more people

have died from preventable disease than in all wars of mankind

combined. The following page summarizes the steps leading to this

tragedy.

 

 

The fact that vitamin C stabilizes the walls of arteries, for

example, has been known for 200 years, ever since James Lind

uncovered vitamin C deficiency as the cause of blood loss and scurvy.

Any head of a pharmaceutical company, any Ph.D. or M.D. who denies

knowing this fact is simply incredulous. Why, then, was this

information not applied to medicine in order to combat cardiovascular

disease? Why was the official RDA for vitamin C set at 60 mg, an

amount barely sufficient to prevent scurvy but certainly low enough

to make sure that cardiovascular diseases will become an epidemic?

The following page gives the answer.

 

 

Throughout this century, the pharmaceutical companies knew that an

optimum vitamin supply of the population would lead to the collapse

of a multi-billion dollar market of prescription drugs. Moreover,

vitamins are not patentable and the profit margins are low. On the

basis of this analysis the survival of the pharmaceutical industry

became dependent on two strategies:

 

 

­ To obstruct research, information, and use of vitamins and other

natural

therapies by all means available.

 

 

­ To promote the deception that patentable synthetic drugs are the

answer

to human diseases.

 

 

The Pharmaceutical Industry Is As Indispensable for a Country

as Cancer Is for the Body

 

 

 

 

 

How is it that millions of people are still willing to pay billions

of dollars to the pharma-cartel for medicine that does not cure and

frequently harms?

 

 

The answer to this question is that over the past century the pharma-

cartel and their army of lobbyists have built an intricate maze of

control, infiltration, economic incentives, bribes, manipulation, and

deception. The most important elements of this maze are summarized on

the following page. Millions of people and patients were

systematically deceived by this maze of

 

 

• Manipulation of research so that synthetic drugs rather than

natural

therapies appear as " medicine, "

 

 

• Prescription of this " medicine " by doctors who have had no

education in

nutritional medicine and who receive financial benefits for

prescribing

pharmaceuticals but not natural therapies,

 

 

• Deception by multi-million dollar advertising campaigns for

pharmaceutical drugs that deliberately deceive the public about the

effects

and risks of drugs and about the unethical nature of the pharma-

business,

 

 

• Regulation brought about by regulatory agencies and legislation

under

the pressure of a pharma-lobby, disallowing established health claims

for

vitamins and other natural remedies.

 

 

In the future no nation can afford to burden its economy with a

pharmaceutical industry that grows like a cancer at the expense of

the people, of corporations and of the public sector, all of which

suffocate from exploding health care costs for a medicine that does

not cure.

 

 

 

 

 

A New Era of Human Health Begins

 

 

500 years ago, the Roman church was making billions of Thaler (early

dollars) by selling indulgences, an imaginary " key to heaven " for its

believers. Then the fraud scheme collapsed and with it much of the

power of the church. Today, the pharma business uses the same fraud

scheme. It tries to sell the " key to health " to millions of people

and takes away billions of dollars in return for an illusion: the

deception that the pharmaceutical industry is interested in your

health.

 

 

Considering this unhealthy state of affairs, the urgency for a new

health care is obvious. The liberation from this insane yoke of the

pharmaceutical industry will immediately and directly benefit

millions of people, the business community and the public sector of

all nations. This new health care system is based on an improved

knowledge and participation by millions of people. Basic health has

become understandable, doable and affordable for everyone. The era in

human history when health was delegated to an industry that

shamelessly took advantage of it is over and gone.

 

 

The new health care system focuses on primary health care, prevention

and eradication of diseases. Health consultants and health centers

will replace many medical high-tech centers of today. Every health

food store is the beginning for a community health center.

 

 

The new health care system is being built by dedicated lay people

together with a growing number of doctors and health professionals.

The majority of health professionals are realizing that they

themselves had been compromised by pharmaceutical companies and had

become victims of a drug-centered health care.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Principles of a New Health Care System

 

 

1. Health is understandable for everyone. The basic causes of human

health and disease are understandable for everyone. The fact that

millions of body cells regularly need vitamins and other bioenergy

supply can be understood by every child.

 

 

2. Health is doable for everyone. Cellular Medicine and the daily

supply of vitamins and other bioenergy carriers allow everyone to

maintain and to restore basic physical health.

 

 

3. Health is safe for everyone. Nature itself provides us with

vitamins and other powerful preventive and therapeutic substances to

combat human diseases. They are safe for everyone and without side

effects.

 

 

 

4. Health is affordable for everyone. Effective health measures to

prevent the most common human diseases can be offered in any country

of the world at a fraction of today's cost. Imple-mentation of

Cellular Medicine as a health measure immediately liberates trillions

of dollars in private and public funds.

 

 

5. Health is a human right. Having access to optimum health is a

basic human right. No pharmaceutical company and no government has

the right to limit the spread of information about the health

benefits of vitamins and other natural therapies. Every country in

the world should amend its constitution to guarantee access to

optimum health to its citizens.

 

 

6. Effective health care focuses on prevention. Future medical

research and health care will focus on the prevention and eradication

of diseases rather than on therapies that merely relieve the symptoms

of diseases.

 

 

7. Effective health care focuses on primary health care. Community

based primary health care is the key to an effective and affordable

health care in any country of the world. Health consultants and

health centers in every community will replace an ineffective and

expensive focus on high-tech medicine.

 

 

8. Medical research has to be under public control. Public funds for

medical research should primarily be used to develop treatments that

prevent and eradicate diseases, rather than on merely relieving

symptoms and creating dependencies.
