As previously reported and predicted by this web site the paradigm shift in “preventive medicine” from evidence based medicine to immunization by vaccination is becoming more and more of a reality with each passing day!

In late October of 2011 the Centers of Disease control (CDC), in its latest attempt to transform the face of preventive medicine in America, has stated that all males between the ages of eleven and twenty one years old should receive the HPV (Human Papillomavirus Vaccine) which was originally recommended only for young women.  The CDC alleges that new information leads them to believe that this vaccine should  now be recommended for all people.

The HPV vaccine is to prevent the infection of human papillomavirus, which has been shown to cause genital warts in both men and women, and cervical cancer in women.  The CDC claims that vaccinated boys who receive this serum will not be able to spread HPV to girls subsequently reducing their risk of cervical cancer, genital warts and other cancers.
The CDC states that is is important that the vaccination is received before children become sexually active.

According to the CDC, this recommendation comes after the committee, comprised of 16 medical societies including the American Academy of Pediatrics and the American College of Physicians, suggested its importance in late October. However, the recommendations were made public in the Feb. 1st issue of the Annals of Internal Medicine and on Feb. 3rd in the issue of Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report.

Canadian researchers Lucija Tomljenovic, PhD, and Christopher Shaw, PhD, from the Neural Dynamics Research Group, University of British Columbia, in Vancouver, point out that there is a major discrepancy in claims regarding the safety and efficacy of Gardasil (Merck & Co) and Cervarix (GlaxoSmithKline) — the 2 HPV vaccines that are currently on the market.

According to our research the CDC has received 20,096 reports of adverse side effects including blood clots, paralysis, seizures, Bells Palsy, Guillain-Barre Syndrome, and pancreatitis.

Most recently, according to the National Vaccine Information Center, 78 cases of genital warts have also been linked to receiving the Gardasil vaccine.

Dr. Diane Harper, the principal investigator for clinical vaccine trials with Merck and international expert on HPV science, has been quoted as saying, “Gardasil is not really a cervical cancer vaccine. The vaccine prevents HPV infection, not the development of cervical cancer.”

“Cervical cancer takes years to develop. Parents should be concerned because this vaccine was tested in the short term, and therefore it has not actually been proven to prevent cervical cancer, which is how it has been marketed to the public” said Gina Medvedz, Certified Nutrition Consultant.

We at Health Products Guru.com will continue to monitor the progress of this paradigm shift and pay special attention this new CDC recommendation and the results of its implementation.

In a report released this month by the Cochrane Collaboration, a non profit organization dedicated to  analyzing what is arguably termed as medical evidence, stated that drug giant Roche refused to release information which would assist them in their continued study on the safety and effectiveness of their drug Tamiflu used to treat many strains of flu virus.

Iain Chalmers, one of the founders of the Cochrane Collaboration, stated that this was not the first time  that Cochrane scientists have tangled with Roche. Back in 2010, Tom Jefferson, the lead author of the study, told The Independent (a British news journal) that he was concerned that the European Medicines Agency, which approved Tamiflu, only saw some trial results and the FDA is believed not to have reviewed the largest ever trial of Tamiflu when the med was being considered for approval.

Iain Chalmers  told a conference on research integrity in London, three weeks ago that a review of influenza treatments will state that Roche would not comply with requests to provide additional data despite their knowledge of an important review of Tamiflu was scheduled for release on January 18th of this year (2012).  Cochrane scientists did manage to acquire some of the needed information from the BMJ (British Medical Journal) not however all of the available information that they required and requested, from Roche, to update the review and produce the high quality information product which has made Cochrane Collaboration the The Gold Standard of medical evidence.

Now over the past few years Health Products Guru has written articles expressing concern about the use of the mercury containing preservative thimerosal which has been used in many serums.  Our original concern was that it is believed by many within the scientific community that there is a link between Thimerosal and the increase in the autism rate being seen world wide over the past few decades.  This preservative has, for the most part, been removed from Thimerosal.  At least that is what has been reported.

Our new concern is that Cochrine scientists believe, at least at this point in time, that there is a strong possibility that Tamiflu, the world’s major antidote to flu epidemics, were unable to show that it reduced the risk of pneumonia and that the drug may actually cause damage to the immune system!

“Investigators from the Cochrane collaboration, which reviews evidence for medical treatments, found Tamiflu could reduce the length of time people with the virus suffered symptoms. But they were unable to show that it reduced the risk of potentially lethal complications such as pneumonia. They also found evidence from one trial that Tamiflu could ‘inhibit the body’s ability to mount a normal immune response to influenza’. (The Bureau of Investigative Journalism, Jan 19 2012)

We will keep a close watch on this one.

Jan 23, 2012 (CIDRAP News) – A 39-year-old man from southwestern China died yesterday from H5N1 avian influenza, the country’s second death in less than a month from the disease, according to Xinhua, China’s state news agency.

Since 2003 China has reported 41 cases of H5N1 infection which have resulted in 29 deaths. The last two fatalities, as far as has been ascertained thus far, had no exposure with any poultry of any kind.

In related news, the WHO recently confirmed Vietnam’s latest H5N1 death, in an 18-year-old man from Kien Giang province who died on Jan 16, according to a Jan 20 statement. The man had been exposed to ducks. The Pasteur Institute and local health officials are conducting an outbreak investigation, the WHO said.

The man’s death from the disease pushes Vietnam’s H5N1 toll since 2003 to 120 illnesses, 60 of them fatal.

So far this year the WHO has confirmed 8 H5N1 infections and 5 deaths, spanning five different countries. Four of the cases and 3 of the deaths are counted in the 2012 total; the rest are included in the total for 2011.

Interesting enough, and contradictory to my research, the WHO claims to have a candidate vaccine to deal with this growing concern to public health. (A/Hubei/1/2010, a clade 2.3.2.1 virus).

The WHO is reporting some 582 cases (world wide) since 2003 with 343 cases which resulted in death.  As stated in my first article about H5N1 (written about a month ago) the mortality rate for this strain of influenza is much higher than H1N1 and could become a more serious health issue than we ever dreamed H1N1 could ever be!

The bottom line here friends is we are again going to have to make a choice to “take the shot or not”.  This time however the stakes have been raised.  The risk of sucomming to this strain of virus is much greater than with H1N1.

As always, while we wait to see what develops we strongly advise our customers and clients to keep that immune system healthy and operating at optimal levels.

A Healthy Immune System
The key to good health

For many years we at Health Products Guru have been strong advocates of proper nutrition and nutritional supplementation being the key to overall good health.  We also realize that it is imperative that we must also focus on maintaining optimal immune system function to the same end.

When our bodies are, as a whole, functioning properly we are said to be in a state of ease, that is to say without maladies.  Conversely when one or more of our bodies organs or systems are not functioning properly we are said to be in a state of disease.

Our bodies immune system is the front line of defense.  It protects our bodies from environmental contaminants be they biological or chemical.  Over the past decades we have been hearing more and more about viral contaminants.  In fact many of the maladies being treated by conventional medical practitioners today are being blamed on viral contamination which I believe to be only a half truth.

The other half of the above claim in that these viruses are having this effect due to suppressed immune system function.  Our bodies are constantly being subjected to both chemical and biological environmental contamination on a daily basis.  Our bodies have however been designed to cope with these issues and do so quite nicely when functioning optimally.  The problem is that we don’t get the nutrition that we need to keep our immune systems functioning properly from the foods that we eat alone.  In fact the diets of average Americans over the past few decades are the primary cause of the illnesses that are being suffered today.

Most people eat processed and fast foods because they are more economical in terms of time and money.  This, in my opinion is the primary cause of the illness that we see in most Americans today.  Childhood obesity is an epidemic in this country.  More people are suffering with allergic reactions than ever before.  More and more people are succumbing to the common cold and flu symptoms that ever before. And more people are suffering from chronic illness than ever before.

Generally speaking Americans, in terms of health and wellness are a mess.  And we, as a nation, are living longer lives in that condition.  Think about it.  How many people do you know that are presently taking some type of over the counter or prescription medications?  How many people do you know are suffering from some type of illness or disease?  More importantly how many people do you know that are in overall good health?

Many people claim that they simply don’t have the time to prepare healthy meals or that they can’t afford to purchase healthy food products.  Personally I believe these to be very valid points.

The question here is can we afford to be in ill health?

Even if we are fortunate enough to have medical coverage the price for that protection has been and will continue to be on the rise with no signs of slowing down anytime soon.  It simply stands to reason that the best way to avoid these costs is not to become ill and the best way to reach that goal is to keep our immune systems functioning at optimum levels.

Immune System Health

Overview
The immune system is the system of specialized cells and organs that protect an organism from outside biological influences.  (Though in a broad sense, almost every organ has a protective function – for example, the tight seal of the skin or the acidic environment of the stomach.) When the immune system is functioning properly, it protects the body against bacteria and viral infections, destroying cancer cells and foreign substances.  If the immune system weakens, its ability to defend the body also weakens, allowing pathogens, including viruses that cause common colds and flu, to grow and flourish in the body.  The immune system also performs surveillance of tumor cells, and immune suppression has been reported to increase the risk of certain types of cancer.

Natural Killer Cells
Natural killer cells (also known as NK cells, K cells, and killer cells) are a type of lymphocyte (a white blood cell) and a component of innate immune system.
NK cells play a major role in the host-rejection of both tumours and virally infected cells.
NK cells are cytotoxic; small granules in their cytoplasm contain special proteins such as perforin and proteases known as granzymes. Upon release in close proximity to a cell slated for killing, perforin forms pores in the cell membrane of the target cell through which the granzymes and associated molecules can enter, inducing apoptosis.  The distinction between apoptosis and cell lysis is important in immunology – lysing a virus-infected cell would only release the virions, whereas apoptosis leads to destruction of the virus inside. NK cells are activated in response to interferons or macrophage-derived cytokines.  They serve to contain viral infections while the adaptive immune response is generating antigen-specific cytotoxic T cells that can clear the infection.
Patients deficient in NK cells prove to be highly susceptible to early phases of herpes virus infection.

T Cells
T cells are a subset of lymphocytes that play a large role in the immune response.
The abbreviation “T” stands for thymus, the organ in which their final stage of development occurs.
Every effective immune response involves T cell activation; however, T cells are especially important in cell-mediated immunity, which is the defense against tumor cells and pathogenic organisms inside body cells.

B Cells
The human body makes millions of different types of B cells each day that circulate in the blood and lymphatic system performing the role of immune surveillance. They do not produce antibodies until they become fully activated. Each B cell has a unique receptor protein (referred to as the B cell receptor (BCR)) on its surface that will bind to one particular antigen. The BCR is a membrane-bound immunoglobulin, and it is this molecule that allows the distinction of B cells from other types of lymphocyte, as well as being the main protein involved in B cell activation. Once a B cell encounters its cognate antigen and receives an additional signal from a T helper cell, it can further differentiate into one of the two types of B cells listed below (plasma B cells and memory B cells). The B cell may either become one of these cell types directly or it may undergo an intermediate differentiation step, the germinal center reaction, where the B cell will hypermutate the variable region of its immunoglobulin gene (“somatic hypermutation”) and possibly undergo class switching. Other functions for B cells include antigen presentation, cytokine production and lymphoid tissue organization.

Stem Cells
Lastly and perhaps most important to understand is that many cells are formed from the stem cell.  Stem cells have the remarkable potential to develop into many different cell types in the body during early life and growth including the above mentioned cells. In addition, in many tissues they serve as a sort of internal repair system, dividing essentially without limit to replenish other cells as long as the person or animal is still alive. When a stem cell divides, each new cell has the potential either to remain a stem cell or become another type of cell with a more specialized function, such as a muscle cell, a red blood cell, or a brain cell.

How can we help boost our body’s Immune System?

Normalize Flora
Normal flora are the microbes, mostly bacteria, that live in and on the body with, usually, no harmful effects to us. We have about 10 cells in our bodies and 10 bacteria, most of which live in the large intestine.  Subsequently a healthy large intestine is critical for proper immune system health.
One of the most effective ways to help our bodies to maintain a healthy intestinal tract is to supplement our diet with Probiotics.  One of the best probiotic supplements available to day  is R-Garden-s Inner Garden Flora is a combination of eleven carefully chosen bacteria that can help to restore the proper balance of bacteria to your intestines while helping the other friendly bacteria survive and flourish. It is excellent for people of all ages, regardless of health. Inner Garden Flora can be helpful for occasional upsets such as diarrhea, bloating, or gas experienced while traveling. (Children need proportionately smaller amounts of this supplement.).

Detoxification
Intestinal tract cleansing is very important in the production and delivery of beneficial bacteria as mentioned above.  A gentle detoxification cleanse once every 3 months can be of great benefit to overall health and will be of great benefit in terms of immune system support.

Increase Stem Cell Production
One of the most studied adaptogens on the planet, a substance called Fucoidan (extracted from brown sea weed), has been proven, through clinical studies, (available at pubmed.com) to stimulate stem cell production.  Consuming 50mg of fucoidan can stimulate stem cell production in as little as 30 days and 100 mg in about 15 days!

We honestly believe that by cleansing (detoxifying) our bodies, consuming a good (multi-bacterial) probiotic product and stimulating stem cell production are the keys to helping our immune systems to function at optimal levels and subsequently greatly improve our general health and wellness.

Do we have all of the information that we need to make informed decisions with regard to our personal health care and that of our loved ones?

One would think, with the advent of the Internet and the subsequent explosion of available information as the net has continues to grow, that people would be making better decisions in terms of their physical health.  The truth of the matter is that many people are suffering from information overload and are having a difficult time discerning good information from bad.

To further complicate matters a government advisory board (the US government), as reported by the NY Times on Wednesday (12/22/11), has asked scientific journals to cease reporting certain information regarding bio-medical experiments which they believe would aid terrorists in creating deadly viruses which could be used to touch off epidemics.

It seems that experiments conducted in the US and the Netherlands scientists have created a highly transmissible form of a deadly flu virus that does not normally spread from person to person.  This particular virus (H5N1) rarely infects human beings has an extraordinarily high death rate when it does.

This virus was first detected in 1997 of the some 600 people who have contracted it more than half have lost their lives due to the infection.  Nearly all have caught it from birds, and most cases have been in Asia. Scientists have watched the virus, worrying that if it developed the ability to spread easily from person to person, it could create one of the deadliest pandemics ever.

“A government advisory panel, the National Science Advisory Board for Biosecurity, overseen by the National Institutes of Health, has asked two journals, Science and Nature, to keep certain details out of reports that they intend to publish on the research. The panel said conclusions should be published, but not “experimental details and mutation data that would enable replication of the experiments.”  Reports the Times.

Bruce Alberts, the science editor of the publication, stated in his piece that although the NSAB cant force the publications to comply with their request, the well respected journal, Science & Nature, is seriously considering the recommendations of the panel and would more than likely withhold some information from the public in the name of national security.

Is this a form of censorship?  Might it do more harm than good?

Apparently these studies, one at the Erasmus Medical Center in Rotterdam, in the Netherlands, and the other at the University of Wisconsin-Madison — were paid for by the National Institutes of Health.  Now the NIH is a government agency which is wholly supported by our tax dollars and is subsidized by the Department of Health and Human Services.

David R. Franz, a biologist who formerly headed the Army defensive biological lab at Fort Detrick, Md., is on the board and said its decision to intervene, made in the fall, was quite reasonable.
“My concern is that we don’t give amateurs — or terrorists — information that might let them do something that could really cause a lot a harm,” he said in an interview.   “It’s a wake-up call,” Dr. Franz added. “We need to make sure that our best and most responsible scientists have the information they need to prepare us for whatever we might face.”

Ronald M. Atlas, a microbiologist at the University of Louisville and past president of the American Society for Microbiology, who has advised the federal government on issues of germ terrorism, said the hard part of the recommendations would be creating a way to move forward in the research with a restricted set of responsible scientists.
He said that if researchers had a better understanding of how the virus works, they could develop better ways to treat and prevent illness. “That’s why the research is done,” he said.
The government, Dr. Atlas added, “is going to struggle with how to get the information out to the right people and still have a barrier” to wide sharing and inadvertently aiding a terrorist. “That’s going to be hard.”

Basically what we have here is the US Government sponsoring the creation of deadly viruses and then inhibiting the studies needed to prevent and treat the very illness that they themselves have created.  It seems that this H5N1 virus is the result of modifying the genetic sequencing of the H1N1 virus which caused the 1918 pandemic which killed up to 100 million people.

It is believed by many that the same such experiments, being carried out in Mexico by an American based company working on the development of a vaccine for the H1N1 virus, was the cause of the 2009 pandemic due to the virus not being contained within the confines of the laboratory.

Now I completely understand the need to protect our national security.  I also agree that if this information happened to fall into the wrong hands that is has the potential to cause devastating harm to our citizenry and people the world over.  I can even understand, to a point, the need to suppress such information.

What I don’t understand is why the government has taken an active roll in the creation of a new virus to begin with, using our tax dollars to do so, and then impede the scientific community from finding a remedy for the potential danger that they themselves have created.

The bottom line here is that no matter what the reasons the people are on the hook again.  Our very lives may hang in the balance.  We know that the mortality rate of the H1N1 virus has been very low since 2009.  Each year since then, at its seasonal apex, the mortality rate has been at a steady average of between 8% & 9% and the rate of infection has declined.

What we don’t know is what effect this H1N1 hybrid (H5N1), for lack of a better term, will have on our population if it ever does get out into the open.  This in my opinion is something to be very concerned about.

We know that H5N1 has a mortality rate of about 50% (6-7 times higher than H1N1)

We know that the scientific community doesn’t know how to kill the virus.

We know that one of the worlds leading authorities on the subject believes that this government intrusion may cause set backs in the discovery and development of a remedy for the virus and the subsequent infections caused by it.

We also know that certain information is more than likely going to be suppressed and hidden from the public.

How confident are you that the government and or the scientific community are working in your best interest?

Are you willing to put your trust in people who are in the business of creating deadly biological  organisms?

Are you ready to protect the lives of yourselves and your loved ones?

Ladies and gentlemen this article is not being written to put a scare into anyone.  It is a warning shot across your bow.  It is being written to get your attention.  I am not asking you to believe me.  In fact I encourage you to do your due diligence and discover the truth for yourselves.

Two years ago we wrote that the so called H1N1 pandemic was much to do about nothing.  Yes I know that some people did contract the virus and that some even died from it.  I wish with all of my heart that  this truth could be changed.  But it can’t.  The light at the end of the tunnel however is that the number of deaths ended up being a fraction of what the CDC and the WHO were claiming.  Thank God for that!

Last year I wrote an article which broached the idea that there was going to be a paradigm shift in the way conventional medicine was going to look at preventative medicine and that vaccinations were going to be the center piece of this shift.  What was written in this article has and is continuing to come to pass. (See Vaccination The New Preventive Medicine).

In this article I am again sending out a warning to my readers.  Do all that you can do to optimize your body’s  immune system response as so as you can.  It is far better to be safe than sorry my friends.

-

How can we effectively do this?

-

Take the load off of your immune system!

Antioxidants – The destruction of free radicals will take the load off of your immune system.  We do have the best antioxidant products on the market, bar none!

Probiotics – Most people do not know that most of our immune system function stems from the intestines.  Probiotics are beneficial bacteria which reproduce within the intestinal tract and help our bodies fight off harmful bacteria.

Boost your Immune System

Even if you choose to “take the shot” if your immune system is compromised (not functioning at optimum capacity) the vaccination will more than likely not be effective.  The sole purpose of taking the shot is to introduce a small amount of the virus into your body to trigger an immune system response.  If your immune system is not functioning properly the response and the desired effect with be sub standard at best leaving you vulnerable to the very thing that it was supposed to protect you from.

Our patented fucoidan products are backed up by over 900 published clinical studies on pubmed.com.

In fact our fucoidan is proven to stimulate stem cell production within 30 days (50mg per day) and in 12 days when 100mg of fucoidan is ingested.

Note – Fucoidan has also been proven to enhance apoptosis (programmed cell death) that cancer cells have lost.  That is why cancer cells can grow unchecked.  They, unlike normal cells, don’t know when to die.  Fucoidan also inhibits angiogenesis which is the blood vessels which are required for tumor growth.  If you inhibit that the tumors can’t continue to grow.

Fucoidan also stimulates the production of T4 Killer Cells.  Studies have also shown that Fucoidan can lessen the effects of chemo therapy and radiation therapy.  Fucoidan has also shown that it can  ballance triglyceride and cholesterol levels.

-

Why is stem cell production important?

As we can see from the above images, stem cell production is essential for both instant and adaptive defense mechanisms within our bodies immune system.  When our immune system is compromised and viral contaminants enter our bodies we don’t have the natural ability to defend and irradiate the invading agent.

With regard to vaccinations we must also consider this issue.  The whole idea of introducing a small piece of the virus into our system is for the purpose of the viral data to be stored in our Th1 & Th2 memory cells.  When the virus enters our bodies at a later time our immune system response is based on the information stored within these cells.

Stem cell stimulation is critical to our immune system response as well as many other functions which occur within out body’s at the cellular level.

This will more than likely be the last article published by our web site this year and it is perhaps the most important.  Please take some time and do your due diligence.  Research H5N1 and determine if this is an issue that you need to learn more about.

We also strongly advise you to consider our recommendations to address this issue.

In the mean time I want to thank you for your interest in our articles and our products over the past year.  I sincerely wish you all and your loved ones health, happiness and prosperity over this holiday season and in the new year to come.

God Bless You All!

Parents need to step up to the plate and intervene in the lives of their children or, as predicted over a decade ago, this generation will be the first not to out live their parents. This is not a joke! It is not a fantasy. It is not a scare tactic. Parents had better begin to take these warnings seriously before their children pay the price for their ignorance!

“We are all born with ideal cardiovascular health, but right now we are looking at the loss of that health in youth,” said Donald Lloyd-Jones, M.D., chair and associate professor of preventive medicine at Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine and a physician at Northwestern Memorial Hospital. “Their future is bleak.”

The study used measurements from the AHA’s 2020 Strategic Impact Goals for monitoring cardiovascular health in adolescents and children. Among the findings:

Very Poor Diets: All the 12-to-19-year-olds had terrible diets, which, surprisingly, were even worse than those of adults, Lloyd-Jones said. None of their diets met all five criteria for being healthy. Their diets were high in sodium and sugar-sweetened beverages and didn’t include enough fruits, vegetables, fiber or lean protein.

“They are eating too much pizza and not enough whole foods prepared inside the home, which is why their sodium is so high and fruit and vegetable content is so low,” Lloyd-Jones said.

High Blood Sugar: More than 30 percent of boys and more than 40 percent of girls have elevated blood sugar, putting them at high risk for developing type 2 diabetes.

Overweight or Obese: Thirty-five percent of boys and girls are overweight or obese. “These are startling rates of overweight and obesity, and we know it worsens with age,” Lloyd-Jones said. “They are off to a bad start.”

Low Physical Activity: Approximately 38 percent of girls had an ideal physical activity level compared to 52 percent of boys.

High Cholesterol: Girls’ cholesterol levels were worse than boys’. Only 65 percent of girls met the ideal level compared to 73 percent of boys.

Smoking: Almost 25 percent of teens had smoked within the past month of being surveyed.

Blood Pressure: Most boys and girls (92.9 percent and 93.4 percent, respectively) had an ideal level of blood pressure.

The problem won’t be easy to fix. “We are much more sedentary and get less physical activity in our daily lives,” Lloyd-Jones said. “We eat more processed food, and we get less sleep. It’s a cultural phenomenon, and the many pressures on our health are moving in a bad direction. This is a big societal problem we must address.”

More people are killed by prescription drug use than motor vehicle accidents according to an ABC News story that broke today.

Dr. Leonard Paulozzi, medical epidemiologist at the Center for Disease Control(CDC) said in the interview that death toll’s were being driven up by prescription drug use.  This is the first time that motor vehicle accidents have surpassed death by drug abuse since 1979 when the government first started tracking drug-related deaths.  Dr. Paulozzi also noted that the decrease in the mortality rate  from motor vehicle accidents is partly responsible for the swing.

Bob Anderson, chief of the CDC’s mortality statistic branch, said the swing is bittersweet. “On one hand the motor vehicle death rate has been going down, and I think that’s important in and of itself,” said Anderson, crediting the bulk of the drop to speed limits and seatbelt laws. “On other hand, we’ve seen a fairly steep rise in drug-related deaths, and the rise is mostly due to drug overdose.”

“The number of people starting to have significant consequences, or at least recognizing they need help, is on the rise,” said Delany. “A lot of people think that because you need a prescription, it must be a pretty safe drug. But it’s addictive. Even if you take them the way they’re prescribed. You can build up a tolerance pretty quickly.”

According to a study by Samsha and the CDC in 2008 305,885 Americans in emergency rooms, which is more than double the 144,644 visits in 2004,

Joel Saper, founder of the Michigan Headache and Neurological Institute in Ann Arbor, said the rise in drug-related deaths underscored the liberal “unleashed” prescription of opioid painkillers nationwide.

“It’s one thing to use these drugs for surgery, trauma or burns. But this stuff is given to teenagers for headaches,” said Saper. “While there are people who deserve narcotics for pain, not all doctors are trained to understand how these drugs are used. They don’t monitor patients carefully, and they don’t look out for multisourcing” — patients who seek drugs from multiple doctors. “Until that all can be controlled, we’re not going to stave off the continued growth of drug-related deaths.”

Why is this happening in our country?   I believe it is because conventional doctors are, as usual, treating the symptoms rather than the cause and the therapy, if surgery is not indicated is always, take a pill.  Have a headache?  Take a Pill.  Can’t sleep?  Here’s another.  Acid ingestion?  Have a purple one.

I often wonder, especially after watching a television commercial about a new drug, are people ever going to realize that when a one minute commercial which dedicates 15 seconds to the benefit and 45 seconds to the side effects that there might be  a problem with that drug?  When are they going to seek natural remedies which are as equally effective as pharmaceuticals without the side effects?
