BIG PHARMA…

Big Pharma

Today I need to explain and rant about Big Pharma. I have been asked multiple times about medications and what they do…well what do they do besides cover, mask symptoms and poison our bodies so we remain sick and never get well.

There is a reason that we are one of the sickest countries in the world and it is no coincidence that we are also the most drugged country! Research studies has stated that every American is taking between 8-11 different medications a day…let me say that again, 8-11 meds A DAY!!! I know that I take 0 medications, my wife takes 0 medications and all of my co-workers take 0 medications, so what does this mean, well it means that there are people taking mine, my wife’s and my co-workers medications…this is absolutly crazy. Now I know what you are thinking….this guy is crazy and has no clue what he’s talking about, but before you pass judgment please get yourself educated and learn the facts. I do believe that there is a time and place for EMERGENCY medicine, to maintain life…notice I did not say save a life!!! How many of you actually know what your medications are made of and how they interact with one another? Pharmacists don’t even know, especially when you are taking 8-10 different medications. Yes, they can make an educated guess but in true reality, there are so many, millions of ways those meds can break down and form new compunds in your body that it is nearly impossible to really know. This is why we get more symptoms when we take medications, because of these interactions (adverse drug reactions) of Which approx. 800,000 people die from every year. This is like two Delta 747 crashing every day and everyone on board dying! Do you think the FAA would allow this to happen??? I don’t think so, so why then do pharmaceutical get away with it???

I get a daily email from Reuters Health News that tells me all the up-to-date progress that Big Pharma is making with its drug research. I’ve been watching Big Pharma for several years now. And isn’t it peculiar that after nearly a century of modern medicine, after the discoveries of anti-biotics, vaccination, genome therapy, biotech, cloning, nanotechnology, stem cell research etc., we are still no closer to an actual cure for Cancer or AIDS or heart disease or Alzheimer’s or HIV etc – the list goes on and on ?

All the drugs that are spewed out of Big Pharma’s labs are essentially anti-inflammatory painkillers for particular conditions. These drugs might make the patient feel more comfortable but very few of these drugs are outright magic-bullet curatives are they? Perhaps I’m being too cynical here, but maybe this is the way Big Pharma likes it, maybe this is firm secret policy within the drugs companies. After all, if there was a simple and cheap one-stop cure for cancer, these patients would have no further need for their very expensive cancer drugs, radiotherapy or surgery prcedures would they? So Big Pharma seems to prefer inventing drugs/procedures that the patient will have to take for a long time. Look at the "Cancer Industry" for example. It’s HUGE. Hundreds of expensive drugs, Radiography machines, expensive surgery. My goodness — if a successful cure was found for cancer, what would happen to all this huge industry? Dependency seems to be key to Big Pharm’s illusive strategy. Simply because this continuing dependency will naturally mean more continuing profit for Big Pharma. This dependency is a bit like a drug pusher making the user so dependent on his drugs that he buys more and more and more. Hence the huge profits.

Or perhaps I’m being a little unkind again. Perhaps the whole basis of Medicine and Big Pharma – The Germ Theory – is incorrect? So what does the Germ Theory say? Basically put, this theory says this: One germ –>One disease –> One cure. But this theory evolved way back in the late 1800s, and was "invented" by Louis Pasteur. However this wasn’t the only theory that was prevalent at the time – there was another theory, postulated by Antoine Bechamp (and backed up later by Gunther Enderlein, Claude Bernarde, Royal Rife, Gaston Naessens etc.) called The Terrain or Cellular Theory.

For a simple comparison between The Germ Theory and the Terrain Theory(in table format), please click here.

Notable also, is that the Germ Theory is the only theory that Big Pharma dares to allow — perhaps because this theory fits their money-making "business model" so well. This model conveniently allows Big Pharma to continuously invent thousands of expensive, singular drugs that are only useful for one particular disease or condition. They invent a drug or procedure, patent it and then make huge profits off their sales despite the drug’s or procedure’s usually vicious or unpredictable side-affects. The Cellular Theory would kill this business practice dead. But any independent medical or herbal advance or cure, anything that threatens Big Pharma’s money making drug machine, any small competitor that comes near to a cancer cure, any American researcher that has an odd and very peculiar wish to save the lives of desperate and diseased people instead of making money for shareholders, well, these upstarts are either banished or jailed(Check out Gaston Naessens or Tullio Simoncini on Google and see what you get – both threatened Big Pharma with cancer cures). I’ll give you another example: Pau D’arco also known as Taheebo, has been used as a successful cancer cure in Paraguay and Brazil for many years now. The indigenous Paraguayan Indians have been drinking the tea from the bark of this plant as a tonic for centuries. Big Pharma heard about it, researched the plant and discovered the active ingredient – lepachol. Big Pharma then did their research bit, multiplying the concentration of their now synthetic lepachol 10,000 times stronger than exists within the plant and then fed it to rats who all died. Therefore, it was decreed that this plant has no effect on cancer, and the FDA banned it as a dangerous plant!! Ah, so easy to banish the competition!! But they’re still drinking the tea in Brazil and Paraguay, still curing cancer(easy to find evidence on the internet).

Other cancer cures? Try Sodium Bicarbonate solution. Check it out here. Have a Candida problem? Try Sodium Bicarbonate or Iodine(Lugol’s Solution) or Hydrogen Peroxide. I’ve use all these simple, cheap remedies for other problems and never felt better with no aches and no pains, no rheumatism or arthritis, taking no drugs and my heart’s good. But you’re probably shaking your head in a no is my guess. If these work then why don’t Big Pharma use these as remedies? Well, because there’s no money in it is there? You can’t patent natural base chemicals like Hydrogen Peroxide, Iodine or Sodium Bicarbonate can you? And it wouldn’t be so politic to admit that such simple cures could possibly be more effective than Big Pharma’s own singularly expensive remedies, would it? So Big Pharma would far rather you buy their expensive drugs(for a long time), since this returns far more profit doesn’t it? And if you consider all these simple remedies, they all fit in very well with Bechamp’s Terrain Theory, don’t you think? – Simply because you are treating and changing the inner terrain of the body – making it more alkaline, more oxygenated (You are, in effect, creating the conditions for a healthy body, strong immune system etc.) – something that Cancer and Candida microbes hate because they like anaerobic and acid terrain conditions.

And you might well ask, why hasn’t anyone set out to prove, by way of research, the efficacy of The Cellular or Terrain Theory then? In America, it takes $200 million to prove safe proof of purpose for just one drug to the satisfaction of the FDA, that’s why. And the only sector that has that kind of funding is Big Pharma(they seem to have it all sewn up, don’t they?). There are no small start-up biotech companies or Alternative Therapy clinics that have this kind of money. So they are completely shut out of this drug loop by both Big Pharma and the FDA(and indirectly by the US Government).

On his deathbed, with his scientific adversary Claude Bernard present, Louis Pasteur finally admitted :"….You are right my friend, microbes are nothing, the terrain is everything…"

Understand that God didn’t put you on this earth to be sick and miserable, He loves you and wants you to be healthy and needs you to be healthy, so that you can spread the good news of his ongoing work.

There are certain things in this world that make us sick and they are: trauma, toxins, and stress. Realize that our bodies are designed to have proper nerve flow, move, be fueled with proper nutrition, if you are doing none of these you will be sick and you will have symptoms, period.

We are a country that has a pill for every ill, because there is money to be made!!! You have to realize that the pharmaceutical companies are getting filthy rich off you taking their medications and they really don’t care if you get healthy as long as they can sell more drugs.

There is a reason that one in every five commercials on TV is for medications. They are brain washing you, and using scare tatics to get you to use their medication. People sitting at home on a couch see a commercial for restless leg syndrome…and they think to themselves, my legs hurt and never seems to relax even at night maybe I have that, so they make an appointment with there MD and go in. The MD will say maybe you do have that, why don’t you try this medication for a peroid of two weeks and let me know how things are going. Well the patient starts the medication the pain and restlessness goes away in the legs (do to a muscle relaxer) but they are now having stomach problems and headaches. What do they do??? They make another appointment with the MD…when visiting with the MD they state that the leg symptoms are gone but now they are having stomach issues and headaches…what can the MD do??? Give them more medication to counteract the stomach issues and headaches…don’t you see that they are treating your symptoms, why don’t people ever ask: "what is causing these symptoms in my body?" You see medications will treat symptoms and not the cause this is why once you start with the meds you can never go off unless you change your lifestyle. Then it is the lifestyle change that heals your body not the medications.

A recent reseach study came out and states that exercise will give a depressed patient the same benifit as prozac. The problem here is we are to lazy to get our butts off the couch, we look for a quicker easier fix that poisons us. Be honest with yourself when was the last time you exercised??? I’m not talking just walking around a parking lot or in a mall. I’m talking about elevating your heartrate for a period of 20-30 minutes, and actually sweating. This type of exercise produces a change in your body, it takes away your aches and pains by releasing endorphins, and decreases your stress levels which we all need right now. 

Chiropractic care is on the leading front of wellness. Chiropractic patients whether adults, infants or kids are the healthies people in the world. Why you may ask…the answer is simple they buy into the the fact that we need to have proper nerve flow, we need proper exercise, and we need healthy nutrition, oh yeah one other thing…they believe that medications and pills aren’t the answer.

If you are ever curious about chiropractic go to a chiropractic orientation at a office near you. We offer ours on Monday and Wednesday nights, you are more than welcome to come and hear the mesage anytime, no obligations just a good way for you to get educated instead of listening to hearsay. Knowledge is power, the more you know why, the better you will heal.
