Author Health Myths Exposed Hidden Truth about Cholesterol-Lowering Drugs www.thepeopleschemist.com +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Safer than Aspirin Forgotten Tea Still an Alternative for Pain Relief Contrary to popular belief, drug giant Bayer did not " invent " Aspirin™. As early as 200 B.C Greek physician Hippocrates prescribed the first " Aspirin™ " by recommending the bark and leaves of the white willow tree to relieve pain and fever. This laid the ground work for the eventual synthesis of salicin– one ingredient of white willow bark. Carl R. Gerhardt first synthesized a better absorbed chemical cousin to salicin in 1853 - acetylsalicylic acid (ASA). Bayer trademarked theanti-platelet drug as Aspirin in 1889. The drug is not as safe as the natural counterpart. The side effects of Aspirin™ are so severe that they can cause a higher death rate relative to the populations who do not take it.(1) Fortunately, the pain relieving ability, as well as any purported cardiovascular benefits, of the anti-platelet drug can be procured without the risk. Simply use the forgotten tea white willow bark. Its track record for safety is impeccable. References: Kauffman, Joel. Should You Take Aspirin to Prevent Heart Attack?

Medical diagnosis and treatment is constrained by law to be the monopoly of state licensed practitioners.

His experience in drug design and synthesis afforded him a wealth of knowledge in the areas of natural medicine and therapeutic nutrition. He is not a doctor. In fact, he has never even read Gray's Anatomy. healthmyths.net 3600 Cerrillos Dr. #714C-802 Santa Fe New Mexico 87507 United States -- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
