(NaturalNews) NBC commentator Tim Russert was taking prescription medications when he suffered a heart attack and died yesterday at the age of 58. The mainstream media is reporting that Russert died from a "heart attack," but no press outlet has yet bothered to ask: "What caused the heart attack?"
Nearly 100,000 Americans are killed each year by FDA-approved pharmaceuticals, according to the American Medical Association. Virtually none of those deaths are accurately reported as being caused by pharmaceuticals. Instead, the media simply reports that the victim died of whatever biological malfunction was most noticeable at the time of death.
That's why Tim Russert was said to have died of a "heart attack" -- his failing heart was the most obvious and sudden organ failure, even though the biological tipping point that brought him to that moment of heart failure could have been caused by the very pharmaceuticals he was taking in an effort to "control" coronary artery disease.
Pharmaceuticals do not make you healthyPharmaceuticals, you see, do not solve any underlying health problems. They do not cure heart disease, nor do they prevent it. Rather, they simply "control" the symptoms of disease by artificially lowering or inflating numbers on a blood test, thereby creating the illusion of health when, in reality, no fundamental health improvements exist at all.
That's why pharmaceuticals that are used to treat heart disease actually promote the continuation of disease and discourage patients from taking other, more proactive steps to resolve their underlying health problems and eliminate the need for medication.
Tim Russert, unfortunately, believed in using medication and did not take the necessary steps to alter his diet and lifestyle in a way that eliminated his dependence on that medication. According to Russert's internist, Michael A. Newman, Russert knew he had been diagnosed with coronary artery disease but believed he was "controlling" it with medication and exercise.
One look at Russert's physique tells you he wasn't controlling anything with exercise, which means he was relying primarily on medication to solve his coronary heart disease problems for him. This may have been a fatal mistake: A working man who suddenly dies at age 58 from a completely preventable disease is not dying of "normal causes" at all; he's being killed by something.
Russert's heart disease was not his only health problemWe can't be certain it was entirely from medication, of course. Russert's diet no doubt had something to do with it, too. A quick look at Russert's body and face tells you he consumed large quantities of animal products (meat, milk, cheese) which directly cause coronary artery disease. It's also not difficult to see that he suffered from rather prominent liver problems as well as a kidney disorder that caused excessive water retention. These health problems are obvious to anyone schooled in simple face diagnosis. (You can see these signs in his eyes and skin.)
Of course, even Russert never claimed he was in excellent health. But he likely lived under the illusion that his doctor-prescribed heart medication would "control" his symptoms and thereby relieve him of any worry about dying from sudden heart attacks or strokes. It is in this way that conventional medicine likely killed Tim Russert. His doctors made him believe that medication would save his life rather than end his life. But one hard look at the published studies on statin drugs, for example, reveals that cholesterol medications provide absolutely no health benefits to those who take them.
