POPSIs Big Pharma Saving The LIves Of The Poor? I have often commented on the greed of Big Pharma. But, came across this article which tells a story of how a Dr. Curtis, an anthropologist , living in African, wanted to save lives by trying to change habits that induce disease to routines of prevention. As in, washing hands after each toilet use. Easier said than done because an often unconscious pattern of behavior acquired through frequent repetition is what makes you, you. So how can an entity go about changing unconscious unhealthy responses into ones that can save lives? Well, by seeking the help of the very industries that have for years spent billions of cash on manipulating the public and convincing them they cannot live without their products, in other words, changing habits. Makes sense, Big Pharma is good at it and perhaps, indirectly, all they have learned to part us from our $$$ can now be of benefit to those who are dying simply because of bad habits. :lol:

POPSLegitimizing Medical Marijuana What is wrong with a country that will not regulate Big Pharma, who spits out harmful drugs and does everything short of chaining you to a chair, to get their drugs down your throat. But, instead will do everything in its power to break an industry (one that has mostly helped people live a better life) they deem unlawful. Between 1978 and 1997, 35 states and the District of Columbia passed legislation recognizing marijuana's medicinal value. Still the goofballs in the Whitehouse and Congress demand that these states have no autonomy when it comes to this natural drug from a plant. I don't know, it just seems preposterous to me. More facts at this site: http://www.drugwarfacts.org/medicalm.htm People have got to start thinking and start realizing, our government is mostly full of BS. A change is coming, I hope.

POPSBig Pharma Drug Rip-Off Many of us knew this to be true but when it is written down in some article it packs an even greater punch! OUCH! We should all stop being so afraid of death, and dying for if it weren't for this fear, I believe, THEY (big pharma, physicians, medical "caretakers" etc.) COULD NEVER GET AWAY WITH ROBBING US OF OUR MONEY, HEALTH AND WELL BEING! :mad: More here http://articles.mercola.com/sites/articles/archive/2008/04/19/shocking-facts-about-the-pharmaceutical-industry.aspx and here: http://www.corporatewatch.org/?lid=327 and even more here: http://www.thenation.com/doc/20020805/newman20020725

POPSWe Are All On Drugs! Whether you are a pharmaceutical pill popper or not, you still are taking Big Pharma's Drugs by just being thirsty and drinking a glass of water. Gives new meaning to the 17th-century English poet John Donne, who penned the words below: No man is an island, entire of itself; every man is a piece of the continent, a part of the main. If a clod be washed away by the sea, Europe is the less, as well as if a promontory were, as well as if a manor of thy friend's or of thine own were: any man's death diminishes me, because I am involved in mankind, and therefore never send to know for whom the bell tolls; it tolls for thee. Just think, every human body, that is ingesting the Doctor ordered drugs and eliminating some of these substances because the body is incapable of digesting all of the noxious ingredients. Therefore, sharing these prescribed poisons unwittingly, with the rest of us with one trip to the bathroom. YIKES! :shock:

POPSWhat Really Causes A Heart Attack? This is a very interesting video from Dr Mercola, about why people are succumbed by heart attacks. It is not what you always believed. Also there is a youtube video using dogs to explain this reasoning. If you can get above the idea of cruelty to animals, this video will offer an even more in depth explanation. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8xOPZjAddI4 To top off this medical information clip, click this link...

POPSHas you Doctor Prescribed Statins? This is a short youtube video but it packs a powerful punch. Anyone who is taking or about to take statins should heed its message. Doctors have, for a long time, prescribed drugs we don't need and really should not be taking because of their harmful side effects to our systems. Remember all the antibiotics you gave your child, for the common cold? Doctors led you to believe your child would become very sick or even die if they didn't take this drug... It should be a crime but since Big Pharma has our government wrapped around its $$$ finger we keep taking and shelling out big bucks for these unnecessary and harmful drugs.:cry: Read: http://www.thenation.com/doc/20020805/newman20020725

POPSCholesterol's Benefits. Huh???
In these days of drug mania, where pill popping cures anything from a limp male organ to hair loss. Big Pharma is pumping out the pretty colored gems as fast as the doctors can write out their illegible prescriptions. The money pours across the palms of the execs in media to brainwash the gullibles into believing they need at least 50 pills a day to stay alive and active. Case in point, a local doctor who resides in a rural town thinks nothing of threatening a patient with a "IF YOU DON'T TAKE THIS MEDICATION I AM PRESCRIBING, I WILL CALL YOUR INSURER AND TELL THEM THAT YOU ARE DELIBERATELY RISKING YOUR HEALTH AND THEY WILL DROP YOU!" Sounds a bit bizarre doesn't it? Well, it really happened. This particular health care provider, prescribes anti-cholesterol drugs like it's going out of style. No Joke! Now studies are proving that we need some cholesterol in our systems, it's enough to make you want to ban Big Pharma's drugs and all the sycophants who do their bidding. :shock:
