The difference between chinese and American product manufacturers
I'm not saying that chinese food and personal care products don't contain toxic chemicals, by the way. A chinese businessman will cheat you just as quickly as a U.S. businessman, and if there's a dollar to be saved by replacing a real ingredient with some toxic substitute chemical, you can count on receiving the toxic chemical.
The only difference between chinese products and American products is that the chinese products will kill you faster. |

Our best-selling formulas are now a combination of traditional chinese herbs as well as homeopathy, which allows for faster- acting results for people. One of our best selling products is Clear Lungs, which is the number one selling lung congestion formula in the marketplace right now. We have several other formulas that do really well, like formulas for blood sugar balance, hypoglycemia, diabetes, blood pressure, Sinus Clear, Asthma Clear and so on.
Mike: You have a blood sugar balance formula, and the ingredients are three or four medicinal chinese herbs, right?

| Mike: That's actually quite typical of chinese medicine. It's not an allopathic approach, but it's rather a toning or balancing approach. Here I see one ingredient is chinese licorice root. It's funny, because I think we've done six or seven articles in the last year on licorice root, and new evidence, even in the Western world, shows that it's a blood sugar-stabilizing herb.
St. Clair: Yes, definitely.
Mike: I think cinnamon was in some of that research, as well.
St. Clair: Yes. |
| Mike: You have a blood sugar balance formula, and the ingredients are three or four medicinal chinese herbs, right?
St. Clair: Yes, this is actually probably the simplest formula in the entire line. Most of our formulas have anywhere from about 12 all the way up to about 40 different ingredients. chinese herbal medicine, as you probably know, relies a lot on the synergy of herbs and different energies that the herbs produce. So the Blood Sugar Balance is unique in that it only has five ingredients. |

There's a saying in China, and I'll translate it into English for you: "Americans watch TV. chinese make the TVs." And that, my friends, sums it all up.
Tech firms called a "disgrace" by U.S. lawmakers
Indignant U.S. lawmakers, always looking for an excuse to engage in "moral high ground" theatrics, recently grilled Google, Microsoft, Yahoo and Cisco about their cooperation with chinese internet censorship. Rep. Tom Lantos, a Democrat, is reported to have said, "Your abhorrent actions in China are a disgrace. I simply don't understand how your corporate leadership sleeps at night. |
| It has nothing to do with the fact that Americans are the world's largest consumers, while chinese are the world's biggest savers, we're led to believe. It must not have anything to do with the fact that the U.S. manufacturing base has practically disappeared, while China's manufacturing base continues to grow by around 15% per year.

Just like the chinese food served in the United States is nothing like chinese food purchased in China, chinese medicine in the United States doesn't match the chinese medicine practiced in China.
"Ayurvedic medicine" is a system of holistic medicine practiced widely in India and throughout Southeast Asia. It is also gaining popularity and recognition in the United States, Europe, Australia and many other areas of the world as people come to recognize the inherent wisdom and innate safety of Ayurvedic medicine. |

It goes like this: chinese Americans with lymphatic cancer who were born in "earth years"—and consequently were deemed by chinese medical theory to be especially susceptible to diseases involving lumps, nodules, or tumors—had an average age at death of 59.7 years. By contrast, age at death of chinese Americans born in other years, and nonetheless diagnosed with lymphoma, was 63.6 years. Anglo Americans who have lymphoma were not subject to these calendar effects.'
Much of the research in this chapter reminds us of Believe it or not! |

What do U.S. lawmakers really expect? The U.S. is a culture of limitless greed, built on the imaginary bullishness of an economy that most people believe is unstoppable (and hope is unaccountable). |

One criticism from practitioners of traditional and chinese medicine might be that every person is different and that you can't have "one size fits all." What's your response to that?
St. Clair: Well, you can't have "one size fits all," and we're not ever going to claim that our products are 100 percent effective for 100 percent of people. What we do find is that the formulas we've put together do work for the majority of the people who use them. The real question is: How many capsules a day work for a certain condition on a certain person? There is a variety of answers. |

| We found a homeopathic medicine generally works much quicker than that, so we've now started blending homeopathy with chinese medicine, both of which work with the body's own energy. We find that it's a really happy marriage between those two, and so many of our formulas now take into account both of those types of formulations. We find that that's been a very effective approach for us to take.
Mike: That's a unique synergy. I don't think I've seen other companies use that combination.
St. Clair: A classical homeopathy doesn't generally lend itself to putting homeopathy with herbal medicine. |

In 1993, in clear hopes of converting chinese palates, Cadbury Schweppes began construction, in a joint venture, of a chocolate factory near Beijing; but the news magazine that reported this came up with the sobering information that the chinese eat only one bat of chocolate for every 1000 consumed by the chocoholic British!82
As we have said, chocolate's one Asian success was the Philippines, conqueted by the Spaniards in 1543, and a Spanish possession until acquited by the United States in 1898. |

According to the theory of traditional chinese medicine, the human body has a meridian system running deep in the tissues of the body through which flows an invisible energy which the chinese term 'the qi, or life force. The qi supposedly enters the body through these acupuncture points and flows to deeper organ structures (which do not correspond to those of Western human biology), providing energy (and thus the life force). Illness occurs when there is a blockage of this energy anywhere along the pathways. |

Today, more than a third of chinese men are addicted to cigarettes, generating billions in annual profits for Big Tobacco companies who are right now producing more chinese casualties than any war in China's long history.
Western medicine is also invading the continents around the world, bringing its expensive, heartless and corporate-controlled system of medicine to nations who were actually far healthier, happier and more financially solvent before America showed up with all its patented chemicals. |
| Drug companies see China's one billion people as nothing more than revenue-generating patients, and convincing all those people to take more medicines will require a well-planned, well-funded economic and philosophical assault on chinese medicine. Essentially, Big Pharma must find a way to disconnect the chinese from their heritage, turning them all into depressed, diseased "white" consumers whose medical mythology worships the falsehoods of western reductionism. |
| Western medicine is also invading the continents around the world, bringing its expensive, heartless and corporate-controlled system of medicine to nations who were actually far healthier, happier and more financially solvent before America showed up with all its patented chemicals. chinese medicine, for example, is routinely discredited in China by arrogant chinese doctors who went to med school in America then returned home to betray their own fellow citizens. |

A tradition of herbal cleansing is recorded in the cultures of the ancient Sumerians, Egyptians, Romans, Greeks, chinese, Europeans, and American and Asian Indians. The chinese have a long and rich herbal tradition, dating back some five thousand years. They count their medicinal herbs in the thousands, as compared to the hundreds used therapeutically in Western societies. The therapeutic use of herbal preparations is also an integral part of Ayurvedic medicine, an ancient Indian system of healing that has its roots in Vedic culture. |

The only difference between chinese products and American products is that the chinese products will kill you faster. The American products contain poisons that kill you more slowly -- just enough to give you disease symptoms requiring pharmaceutical treatments without actually killing you. |

Antioxidant Redox Signaling 6: 571-86, 2004] The beneficial effects of tea drinking were recently demonstrated in a study of chinese women with ovarian cancer. Almost 80 % of women who drank tea survived three years following their diagnosis compared to just 49 % of non-tea drinkers. By brewing tea, these chinese women were making their own medicinal hot-water extracts. [Asia Pacific Journal Clinical Nutrition 13: SI 16, 2004]
Alcohol or water extracts?
Herbal extracts available commercially are either water or alcohol extracts. |

An herb that a lot of people don't know as much about is called andrographis, which is chinese. I think we'll see a lot more from this anti-inflammatory.
Mike: Do you know the chinese name for that herb?
Kilham: Now, what's Andrographis paniculada called in chinese? I don't know, but andrographis is becoming more popular.
Mike: Okay. Now your book is called "Hot Plants." And is this available on the market right now?
Kilham: "Hot Plants" is available in bookstores. It was published by St. Martin's Press in September 2004. So, it's out and around. |

Taiwan businesspeople are making money, chinese businesspeople are making money, chinese politicians are making money, and chinese police are making lots of bribery money because you've got to bribe the right people to do business in China. So, there's no profit in war. If you go to war, you spoil the economic profit that's there.
Now, back in the United States, let's say Donald Rumsfeld, for example, owned a chain of factories in Iraq before 2001. |
