Dr Mercola being Accused of Lying, Because I Told You the Truth

From Dr Mercola archives | September 18, 2013


                   


 From OpEd news: pharmas continue to endanger life of many.  Did they contribute millions to the Obama campaign?

This has been expected that as Dr. Mercola writes many truths on vaccines, the Big Pharma companies will use their resources to silence the site of Dr. Mercola.  Truth will be silenced as vaccines are big money no matter what. The mindset that vaccines are good for the health of all and disease prevention  will be promoted.

Dr Mercola says that big pharmas are issuing veiled threats and even used the influence of UNICEF to gang up on him and his site, without addressing the health issues of vaccines that have been published.  Mercola lists down what wrong things these big pharmas have done so far, like being fined for various violations, frauds, briber, cover ups,  in USA and even in China.

The Common Misdiagnosis That Can Land You in a Nursing Home

From Bottom Line Health

                                          

This dark secret is being shared for many senior citizens in nursing homes.  Many are spending the rest of their lives diagnosed as suffering from Alzheimer or dementia.  They cant remember the names of their children (or get lost and forget who they are or where they live - also true in the PHL)

The dark secret - many of them do not have the disease -  many of them are iatrogenic (caused by the MD) or are polypharma (caused by taking too many drugs)  This is not a speculation but are fully documented.

1.  Many of the falls (which cause fractures and orthopedic operations) are drug induced;

2.  97% of those who stay in nursing homes take at least one drug, with 17% taking three or more;

3.  Many prescription drugs cause  drug induced Parkinsonism;   there are 22 drugs and 14 otc products that cause these symptoms

A typical scenario would be:  a senior citizen is diagnosed to have high blood pressure and an anti hypertensive drug is prescribed and soon side effects appear.  And drugs are prescribed to counter act the side effect which now in turn produce a new set of side effects.  And so a third drug is prescribed.

The article lists other items that are interesting and useful like:

1.  Unusual remedy that works faster than aspirin;

2.  Beverage that clears clogged arteries;

3.  Permanent health cure for arthritis

Two Popular Health Tests With Mammoth Risks from Dr. Mercola

From Dr. Mercola archives  | Nov 25, 2012

Do these two medical procedure improve health.  Studies do not seem to indicate so according to the research finding of Alan Cassels Seeking Sickness, the Misguided Hunt for Diseases.

These two tests are the:   1.  Annual screening tests for PSA (for prostate cancer in males) and mammograms and 2.  General Health tests  For the latter, although the number of tests/diagnoses increased, there was no overall effect on morbidity or mortality.

The key for good health is prevention, rather than cures or diagnosis. Dr. Mercola and Alan maintain.
