Mercury-we all have to make our own desion on its effects but I believe if the research is done by an individual on the info out there it is very clear. The fact that it was suppose to be taken out of vaccines and that it isn't should be enough to think twice IMO

Questioning is fine-paranoia is not.

I don't worry two seconds about getting into an accident when putting on my seat belt. I simply believe it is smarter (never really looked into that belief-now I might lol). Info and choosing what the individual believes in thier own health does not have to be from paranoia.

Personally I live happier and healthier than I ever have. Just cause I choose to make my own desisions on health and not just bend over for the shot in my ass and open wide for the pill in my mouth and the fact I think that more often than not they are dangerous doesn't mean for a second that I worry about it.

With out knowlage we can't make an educated choice.

I am not saying anyone should be afraid. I suggest that we look into things a little and make conscious choice as opposed to doing simply what everyone does and we have been programmed to do.



Taking part in MuayThai fights. Yes I do. But I would think there was a problem if I didn't know the risks. I would think it was a problem if a trainer told a parent that there was no way there kid could get hurt or if the risks were unreasonably minimized.


Antibiotics cure infection-often the infection is fungal (many antibiotics also work as anyifungals. What is the cause of the infection?? If one was healthy and had a properly functioning immune system would it be nessasary? What is the damage caused by antibiotics? The fact they wipe out good bacteria as well as bad and that this good bacteria is a HUGE part of immune function. What if a client knew this? What if a patient was taught how to recolonizze the gut after antibiotics?

My own personal story-impacted wisdom tooth. Cut open gums, pulled out, put in composit material etc etc SOP antibiotics. Not only is it thought to be nessasary but its believed that the bone will not grow over composit without. I proved wrong on both cases. I did not take the antibiotics I was prescribed.

I do NOT recommend this because peoples immune systems are weak and do not function properly... The point is is it worth looking at actually getting people healthy instead of sticking them with a drug that makes money??

The assumption is that antibiotics is nessasary.

"The terrain is far more important."

"Lipitor lowers your cholesterol levels"-the whole cholesterol thing is bs and there is an assumption that they should be lowered "The Cholesterol Myth" is a good place to check that out.

But more importantly why is cholesterol high???? It is high because of other things. Giving a potentially dangerous drug to change a symptom does absolutely nothing to deal with the cause!

Insulin controles blood sugar-at very best the research is devided. But yet again why!!!!! is there a problem here and drugging a symptom does nothing to look at the etiology (cause!).

If you go to a mechanic cause your car is making funny noises and he gives you ear plugs what would you think???? You want to get to the reason, no?

In the body we drug the noise and not addressing the reason does what?? Keeps you coming back for one cause IF the noise doesn't get louder then its likely to show up somewhere else or whatever is causing the noise creates a problem somewhere else and the dash light comes on... But of course a good mechanic can give you some duct tape to cover up the dash light so you can keep on keeping on without worry.

Prob is the ear plugs and duct tape have side effects and no one really knows how bad (at best) and don't care (at worst). If it was simple a matter of side effects and the reality and chances were explained and given then everyone could make a choice.

You're allopathic apraoch (this for that) is based on the assumption that we are all the same. The vast range of side effects shows that to be untrue. "Biochemical Individuality" -Roger Williams (if memory serves) is an excellent read on how diverse we are.

"Are some of these treatable with other, "natural" approaches?"
They are less documented. one thing that is interesting with science and medicine though is that if a study is done in which results can't fit into current understanding and beliefs it is often ignored... so progress is very very slow!!!

But there is another problem. Natural or synthetic approaches to treatment of symptom (the rout of which means signal-dash board light or maybe a noise).

There is a time and place for dealing with symptoms but never, ever without looking for the real cause. Yet this is almost NEVER done.

The thing is too much potassium can make some people more acidic and hyper and some more alkaline and layed back. (another reason for the wide range of side effects as everyone is different).

Not enough documented proof.. Ever wonder where that may come from or how often it is accepted or who pays for the vast majority of studies?

Flying and driving etc etc
Fear based...
medicine is much more fear based than what I am suggesting...

I am suggesting that we CAN take controle of our health.
That we DO NOT need to worry about this and that and get antibiotics for every little thing (cause ouga bouga it might get worse).
That we DO NOT need to buy into the fear that our body is weak and without poisons, knives, radiation we can not survive.

We get vaccines because of fear.
We take drugs because of fear.
We get antibiotics cause of fear.


Do I consider a drug safe the JAMA said was ok?

I consider man made chemicals to be a challange at best in the body.
I do believe there is a time and place for them all.

My comments with JAMA are not to say they know it all.

When a Toyota dealer say they are better than honda you have to wonder.
When a toyota dealer says well I'm sorry to say but toyota doesn't measure up to honda in these areas you go hmmmm (he is less likely to gain from making this up).

Controle on whats published. I don't think its quite as black and white as that but I do think it plays a big role.

TV is a great example cause when you follow the ownership back you find that big corperations own tv stations.

A great example is Fox News and Monsanto. Investigative reporters could not report what they found (follow the money) and how nasty and scary the shit they were selling to milk producing cow farmers. threats, sueing, sensorship etc etc.. Its an excellent example.

When thousands die its pretty hard to keep out of any news... but notice 1-almost no one hears the story
2-when heard its basically ignored by everyone...

I mean when its reported that docs are the 3rd leading cause of death (very conservative and low figures too). I certainly don't expect people to blindly believe that but you'd think it would cause a few questions and a little research from a few people... wouldn't you? The only reason it wouldn't is the blind belief in the medical system. Even though the figures don't come from some tree hugging anti-medical group but from with-in the system itself.

Isn't that enough reason to go.."hhmmm.. IF this is true, wow!!"

But its simply-oh thats bs.

That is blind belief IMO

"Unfortunately, the public are calloused sheep..."

And this apllies to everyone but us, right? Everyones beliefs but ours. Apllies to everything out there except the systems we opperate in?

I have my programming, you do, we all do. IMO&E

I am not suggesting anyone believe anything or that any 'turth' should be excepted.

I am trying to suggest we question not only anything that may not fit into our current beliefs but that we can question our own.

To me the numbers of deaths from the medical and 'health' care system is way way too high. AT absolute best the system needs to tighten up on errors IMO even if one does agree with some of the alternatives I share and have belief in...

At very least I would hope the numbers should cause concern and interest in improvement.

But improvement takes change and that is something we as humans are extreamly resistant too IMO&E.

You in the medical system? :)

I like your arguements-they come across as thought out and supportive of your views as opposed to attcking. Thank you.
