 Consider all your options: whole foods, herbs, vitamins and exercise. The absolute last option is always drugs or surgery.
Why did the Bush administration's Medicare benefit program explicitly bar the U.S. government from negotiating volume pricing discounts with drug companies?
Why has the FDA ordered the destruction of recipe books promoting a safe, natural herbal sweetener?
Why did the FDA raid a church offering genuine mental health help to the public?
Why do clinical drug trials almost always produce results that support the company funding the trials? |
| Repeatedly banned and confiscated herbs and nutritional supplements that compete with prescription drugs. Ephedra, for example, was banned by the FDA based on a political agenda, not good science.
Not since World War II have so many Americans died from a single, common preventable cause. It appears the FDA has declared war on the American people.
'** Conducted armed raids on alternative medicine clinics, confiscating computers, threatening alternative health practitioners, and scaring away patients. |
| Five thousand years of safe, effective use of the herb was thrown out the window, and the FDA achieved yet another tyrannical victory in its ongoing war against herbs and supplements.
Yet, mysteriously, the exact same active chemicals found in Ephedra—ephedrine and pseudoephedrine—were allowed to be sold to consumers without a prescription in over-the-counter cold medications made by pharmaceutical companies. Sudafed, in particular, derives its very name from ephedra. |
| But when it comes to herbs, there is no discussion of benefits versus risks. It's a blanket statement that the herb is "dangerous at any dose." And therefore, all people should be denied the herb, regardless of their state of health or how the herb might help them.
It's also interesting that the FDA should describe Ephedra as being "unsafe at any dose" when many other toxic chemicals added to foods, drugs, and cosmetics are universally declared to be "safe at low doses" even when such chemicals are known carcinogens. |
| FDA ignores benefits of Ephedra in Chinese medicine formulas, which always use Ephedra synergistically with other supporting herbs.
<•* Ephedra was eventually linked to 155 deaths before being banned. In contrast, Vioxx, an arthritis pain drug, was linked to the deaths of 60,000 Americans and was allowed back onto the market by the FDA.
The FDA used its position of power to control the flow of information about Rezulin, to delay its removal from the market, and to deny any evidence of its harm, all against its stated mission of actually protecting the public. |

 In recent years, a growing body of science has validated the healing properties of foods, herbs, and other natural anti-inflammatories. However, as a health professional, I would be remiss if I did not tell you that some studies have reached different conclusions. While I may not agree with these results for a variety of scientific-based reasons, I try to keep an open mind to all serious research and discussion. But to really understand the power of natural healing, you have to experience it yourself. |
| Foods in the Nightshade Family
The nightshade family of plants comprises about 2,600 species worldwide, including herbs, shrubs, trees, vines, and major food crops such as potatoes, tomatoes, eggplants, and chile peppers. Also included in this group is the tobacco plant. Some of the plants in this family—deadly nightshade, for instance—are known to be poisonous. Others, as you know, constitute an important part of many peoples' diets. Unfortunately, even these seemingly benign plants can often cause problems. |

 The sales of herbs and herbal nutritional supplements in the US increased 101% between May 1996 and May 1998. The most popular herbal products included Ginseng (Ginkgo biloba), Garlic (Allium sativum), Echinacea spp. and St. John's wort (Hypericum perforatum) [12].
Traditional and Complementary Alternative Medicine are gaining more and more respect by national governments and health providers. |

 So why is ephedrine illegal in herbs, yet legal in pharmacy drugs manufactured by drug companies? You already know the answer.
With all that in mind, why do you think prescription drugs that kill people remain legal? Think carefully now...
If you guessed, "Because powerful corporations generate billions in profits selling drugs, and governments get a cut of that via state sales taxes and corporate income taxes" then BINGO! You win a prize: a lifetime of free Prozac to keep you happy! |

 The doctor said that doing fasts, taking herbs, and doing colonics is very dangerous and never do them again. The patient left wondering how his prostate cancer was cured.
Can you really trust and believe everything doctors say?
So who can you believe? Remember, if they are selling you something, how can you believe and trust what they have to say? If they are telling you to take something that they sell and not take something that they don't sell, how do you know they are being truthful and honest instead of just trying to make money? |

 If I sound overly confident, it's only because I've actually read the thousands of research studies describing the antiviral properties of selected foods, herbs and medicines. I've also been preparing my own garden: I'm growing eight different kinds of antiviral plants right now, and the longer it takes bird flu to strike, the more plants I'll have to go around.
But I can't speak for everyone else. Not everyone lives a healthy lifestyle. Few people actually follow a healthy diet. Most peoples' immune systems are seriously compromised. |
| I've also written a larger book, How to Beat the Flu which goes into more detail and lists the top antiviral foods, herbs, products, and vitamins / minerals. These is the book to get if you want to know EXACTLY what to buy to prepare for the bird flu virus. (And by the way, I don't sell any antiviral products, and I earn no money on the antiviral products I recommend.)
In addition, all the articles and commentary I've written on the bird flu are indexed on www.BirdFluReport.org. There, you'll find articles and news headlines that keep up with the latest news on this potential pandemic. |
| Buy some antiviral herbs or tinctures and store them in your refrigerator (they'll last longer that way). And don't be the last person in line to buy a bird flu mask. Supplies will be wiped out within days after the announcement of a human-transmittable bird flu discovery on U.S. soil.
Surviving the bird flu virus is straightforward and relatively simple. |

 It has sought to outlaw these natural substances and herbs that have been proven healers for literally 2,000 years in the history of medicine. This is the FDA that has put drug profits first, and public safety last, time and time again.
This is the agency that rigs its own safety panels. "Oh, is there a dangerous drug out there? Let's have a panel and a hearing. Let's rig the hearing with decision makers who are paid by pharmaceutical companies. They're the ones who will get to vote." Wow, what a big surprise. They all voted to make the drug legal again. That's what happened with Vioxx. |

 I recommend you spend your money wisely on nutritional supplements, vitamins, minerals, and herbs from passionate, honest companies you can trust.
Of course, they're going to be slightly more expensive, if not a lot more expensive. But aren't you worth it? If you're going through the trouble of taking these supplements, shouldn't you put the best thing you can find into your body? Don't you deserve healthy supplements, rather than supplements packaged with hydrogenated oils and other poisons that are legalized by our system of corrupt government and private industry? |

 They're studying a lot of herbs, but a lot of the rainforest plants they're not that familiar with, and they're just hungry for it.
They've heard about it one way or another, and so we're supplying them a lot of data, we're supplying the school medicinary with thousands of dollars of product, we're supplying on-campus training for their doctors and supplying products for their interns and their clinic. They have a full clinic there and people from the community are coming. The doctors and the interns before they graduate are practicing. |
| Is the Amazon herb company getting into sponsoring any kind of research to further explore the medicinal value of the herbs?
Amazon John: Your questions are so timely! I just left Phoenix last week, and we were one of the corporate founders of Southwest College of Naturopathic Medicine. I was one of the speakers at their very first graduating class in 1996. And last week was the second time I've been on campus giving a presentation and it was overwhelming, the response from the students. |

 He's got a book called Treating Cancer with herbs. This book teaches you about medicinal mushrooms -- the reishi mushrooms and the shitake mushrooms. Beyond that, we have anti-cancer oils: salmon oil, flax oil and cod liver oil. The list just goes on and on.
I haven't really covered them all, but in addition all those healing foods, there are all the foods you can eliminate from your diet to stop poisoning your body and stop giving yourself cancer. What are those foods? |

 If you have the knowledge of what works, you can walk into any store and buy potent herbs, homeopathic remedies or nutritional supplements that can help reverse these diseases.
That's a great freedom to have in this country. By the way, that freedom may be increasingly under attack because of the FDA's desire to regulate nutritional supplements. If you want to keep your health freedoms intact, stay alert. Pay attention to what's going on and act to preserve those freedoms. You can do that by joining the Alliance For Natural Health. |

| In my own research, I've identified the 8 most powerful antiviral foods, the top 5 antiviral vitamins and minerals, the top 12 antiviral herbs, and the top 10 antiviral products. Plus, I've just completed an interview with a renowned herbalist who is introducing a new antiviral tincture that contains the most potent combination of viral defense medicine I've ever tasted. We'll be printing that interview (and covering the product) here in the weeks ahead.
So why isn't the conventional medical community telling people about these natural antiviral solutions? |

 And, of course, your doctor fully supports it and the FDA rubber-stamps the whole thing, going the extra mile to make sure that herbs are outlawed and deadly drugs remain perfectly legal.
I'm pretty sure Kevin Trudeau would agree with everything I've said here. His talent is that he's really, really good at getting the message out to people. If our country had ten more people with that kind of talent who could fight the propaganda of organized medicine, we'd be better for it.
Some people even say I'm one of those people. |

| If you want to protect yourself (and your family), you have to teach yourself how to reduce your viral load using natural healing therapies (specific foods, herbs, minerals, products, etc.). And then stock up on what you need as an insurance policy.
It's cheap, it's easy, and it's very effective against viruses. Does it absolutely guarantee it will protect you from the bird flu pandemic? Of course not. There are no such guarantees. |

 Meanwhile, drug companies ignore the dangers of their own drugs and, instead, try to get people to believe that herbs or vitamins are dangerous.
5. The manufacturers of those cars with no safety systems would grow tired of being sued by customers who were injured in their cars, and they would lobby Congress to pass "legal reform" that would immunize all car companies against class action lawsuits. Explanation: drug companies are currently trying to get Congress to pass laws that would make it illegal for consumers to sue for damages. |
| Explanation: the drug industry works hard to discredit alternative medicine, herbs and nutritional supplements, hoping to force consumers to rely on drugs alone.
4. Cars with no safety systems (no seatbelts, no airbags, no crumple zones) would be declared perfectly safe by federal regulators. Car companies, rather than address this lack of safety features, would focus on publicizing the dangers of riding bicycles. Explanation: the FDA currently approves deadly drugs as "safe. |

 It's never about the benefits versus the risks in the case of herbs. The FDA will ban an herb nationwide and take it out of the reach of consumers simply because a handful of consumers may have abused it and suffered detrimental effects from it. There are a few dozen people who have been killed by overdosing on ma huang or Ephedra. The FDA touted that as evidence that the herb was dangerous to everyone, and they decided to ban the herb nationwide, effectively turning vitamin shop owners into criminals if they were to sell Ephedra. |

 Take some herbs, vitamins and immune-boosting nutritional supplements. Get into natural health, and you won't have to experience these diseases in the first place.
You want a cure for cancer? You don't need a billion-dollar laboratory, packed wall to wall with biochemistry experts. The cure for cancer is already hard-coded into your DNA. Your body knows how to cure cancer, and with proper nutritional support, it will remember how to do so.
Now, excuse me, because I'm about to go running outside, under the desert sun, with no sunscreen. |

 Right now, I'm growing tomatoes, peppers, zucchini, herbs, strawberries and even watermelons on aeroponic systems. Plant growth is very aggressive, although I am having some challenges getting the tomato plants to fruit (it's probably just a nutrient oversight on my part, due to my relative inexperience in plant chemistry).
When I'm ready to retire these plants for the season, I'll snap some photos of the root mass to show you just how effectively aeroponic growth systems can be. You'll be absolutely amazed at how quickly and aggressively these plant root networks can grow. |
