Big Pharma is developing drugs for the most distressing disease of all: Life

By Mike Adams, June 22 2006
Let's get to the raw truth about the pharmaceutical industry. Drug companies want to turn every normal human experience into a diagnosable disease that's treatable with their high-priced, patent-protected, brand-name drugs. It used to be that drugs were intended just to treat bonafide diseases -- things like malaria or infections -- but now the drug companies have realized that it's a much more profitable venture to invent diseases, and then sell drugs to treat them. So today, we have drugs to...

By Mike Adams, June 21 2006
Mike: I am joined today by author Randall Fitzgerald, the author of "The Hundred-Year Lie: How Food and Medicine are Destroying Your Health," a groundbreaking new book that you would do well to pick up and read. Thanks for joining me today, Randall. Randall Fitzgerald: Well thank you Mike. It is a real pleasure and honor to be with you. Mike: Likewise. Your book was sent to me recently. I began reading it and was absolutely amazed at how well you explain the threats -- to our health, our way...

Skin cancer more deadly in blacks while dermatology pushes more sunscreen products onto people who actually need sunlight exposure

By Mike Adams, June 20 2006
A University of Miami study released today shows that blacks are more than three times as likely to be diagnosed with late-stage melanoma than whites. The study, published in the Archives of Dermatology, reviewed 1,690 melanoma cases to reach the conclusion. Researchers are not able to fully explain the disparity, but suggested that because skin cancer is more likely to occur in light-skinned people, whites tend to receive more attention and earlier diagnosis. The main challenge in blacks is that...

Groundbreaking research finding shows that exposure to light during sleep promotes breast cancer while darkness prevents growth of tumors

By Mike Adams, June 19 2006
New research conducted in the United States at the National Cancer Institute and National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences reveals a startling finding: Exposure to light during the hours of sleep appears to aggressively promote breast cancer. This effect is achieved due to light's ability to shut off production of melatonin, a hormone produced by the pineal gland. This hormone, which is naturally produced by the body during the hours of darkness, is known to be a strong immune system...

Healing foods, herbs and nutrients reference sites to be launched; Update from Truth Publishing

By Mike Adams, June 17 2006
Here's an update on what's new at NewsTarget.com and Truth Publishing. Remember the survey a few weeks ago when we asked what you wanted us to offer next? The No. 1 most requested feature was a free online database of healing foods, herbs and nutrients. We have since built exactly such a series of websites, and they're going to be launching in a few days. HealingFoodReference.com lists all the top healing foods along with the diseases or disorders they may help. It also lists the nutrients found...

Gardeners.com not only has great products for gardening buffs, but exemplary customer service

By Mike Adams, June 16 2006
I just had an out-of-body customer service experience. This customer service experience was so outstanding I almost thought I was dreaming. The company I'm talking about is Gardeners -- found at gardeners.com. It's a company that sells supplies for, of course, people who garden. Since I do a fair amount of gardening myself, I order from them from time to time, and all my orders have been perfect until recently, when I ordered a self-watering plant container. It turned out that the soil-holding insert...

Government's Medicare drug benefit program is an unmitigated disaster

By Mike Adams, June 15 2006
Do you want to know what happens when a government that cares nothing about the people gets put in charge of administering a drug benefit program? You get an unmitigated disaster, and that's what we're seeing today with the Medicare prescription drug benefit program. This program, which is just legalized theft from one group of American taxpayers to another group of American consumers (mostly the elderly), originally promised to give people discounts on prescription drugs. The program was supposed...

Psychiatry and disease mongering: Road Rage Disorder is latest spontaneously "discovered" disease

By Mike Adams, June 13 2006
Disease mongering has reached a new level of ridiculousness with the widely-reported announcement that millions of American now have undiagnosed Road Rage Disorder, also sometimes called Intermittent Explosive Disorder (IED). Desperate to scrounge up new diseases that can be treated with high-profit prescription drugs, Big Pharma and its disease-pushing sidekick, psychiatry, is now pulling diseases out of thin air, making them up as it goes along, and hoping enough impressionable consumers (and journalists...

What is a "normal" diet? Consumers and food industry pundits have it all backwards

By Mike Adams, June 12 2006
I was describing the raw foods diet to someone the other day, and they remarked, "Well I'm not sure I want to do that. I don't want to do something so extreme," and I said, "What do you mean extreme? You think the raw foods diet is extreme?" Then it hit me: Most people think that the processed food diet -- loaded with chemicals, additives, preservatives, artificial plastic fats and milled grains that are depleted of nutrients -- is normal. In this article, we're going to explore what's normal...

Hoodia gordonii update: Honest sellers, safety information and weight loss realities

By Mike Adams, June 12 2006
I am an outspoken critic of hoodia gordonii scams and con artists, but a supporter of honest nutritional supplements and herbal medicine in general. I've followed this story for almost two years now, and was the first to reveal the "Pure Hoodia" scam. As a consumer health advocate, I speak out on anything that I see as ripping people off, whether it's drug companies, disease mongering psychiatrists, or counterfeit diet pills. In this case, the hoodia craze has attracted the most unscrupulous operators...

Dentistry scams exposed: Mercury fillings and unnecessary dental surgery

By Mike Adams, June 9 2006
Modern dentistry is a curious branch of conventional medicine, and like much of conventional medicine, it offers a strange mixture of both helping people (improving dental health) while harming them (filling cavities with mercury). Most dentists, like many doctors, believe in outrageous myths like the idea that putting mercury, one of the most toxic substances known to man, into the mouths of patients is perfectly safe. Dentists also routinely promote the ludicrous idea that dripping fluorosilicic...

The health dangers of trans fats have been known for decades, yet food companies still poison customers with hydrogenated oils

By Mike Adams, June 6 2006
With new trans fat labeling laws now going into effect, which require food manufacturers to list the trans fat content right on the nutrition facts label, it's time to be brutally honest about the continued use of trans fat and hydrogenated oils in the food manufacturing industry. For decades, food manufacturers have known about the dangers to the health of consumers caused by hydrogenated oils, and yet, until recently, food manufacturers were able to claim innocence by saying that their ingredient...

Big Pharma scare tactics: How the pharmaceutical industry influences American consumers

By Mike Adams, June 2 2006
Sometimes truth is stranger than fiction, especially in this case. Lloyd Grove, a columnist for the New York Daily News, says that the pharmaceutical lobby in the United States, a group called PhRMA, actually commissioned the writing of a fiction novel designed to scare Americans into avoiding prescription drugs from Canada. The book was supposed to tell a story of terrorists who altered prescription drugs from Canada in order to kill Americans who were buying them over the internet or crossing the...

By Mike Adams, June 1 2006
When I first heard the news about the clinical results of Jon Barron's Glucotor formula, I was ecstatic. Having interviewed Jon Barron several times and recommended many of his products, I know that Barron is a genuine pioneer in the field of nutritional medicine. He's always ahead of the curve, formulating products that are often years ahead of many in the nutritional supplements industry. Now, Jon Barron's Glucotor formula for blood sugar control has gone through clinical testing and emerged...

The textured vegetable protein experiment: Even rabbits won't eat it

By Mike Adams, May 30 2006
There's a hill in the back yard outside my house where a lot of rabbits, squirrels and quail come to eat the various foods I distribute from time to time. I sometimes put vegetable scraps, fruit pulp, nut pulp or even old packaged foods on the hill for the benefit of these animals, and it's very interesting to watch them and find out what they eat and how quickly they eat it. I've observed these animals eating just about everything I put out there -- beans, pasta, crackers, nuts, seeds, crumbs, lots...

Whistleblowers wanted: Truth Publishing seeks insiders to speak out about drug companies, health insurance and conventional medicine

By Mike Adams, May 24 2006
If you work for a drug company, federal regulator, health insurance company, hospital, junk food manufacturer or any other organization related to health, a new opportunity has surfaced for you to make a lasting difference. Truth Publishing is now connected with key organizations (that shall go unnamed) involved in large-scale projects that have a very real chance of waking up the public to what's really going on in conventional medicine. As a whistleblower, you can contribute to this effort in...

Off-label drug use and the sham of FDA-approved drug safety

By Mike Adams, May 23 2006
Did you know that many drugs are used legally in the United States today for diseases and conditions they were never approved for? It's called off-label drug use, and it's a common practice that promotes the sale of prescription drugs and circumvents the so-called "gold standard" drug safety procedures the FDA claims to enforce. Here's how it works: once a drug gets approved for any condition, whether it's a skin disorder, a mental disorder, or a cardiovascular problem, it can then be legally...

Movie Review: The Island starring Ewan McGregor explores timely theme of corporate exploitation of human beings

By Mike Adams, May 22 2006
"The Island" is one of the best science fiction movies I've seen in a long time. Aside from its obvious strengths, which include stunning action sequences thanks to director Michael Bay, "The Island" also explores important science fiction themes that are reflected in today's culture of corporate ethics, medical ethics, prison populations, organ transplantation, class warfare and others. The movie is based on the idea that, sometime in the near future, the wealthy citizens of the world might pay...

Outrage! Preschoolers used as guinea pigs in psychotropic drug tests

By Mike Adams, May 18 2006
As ClinicalTrials.gov reveals, in 2005, Massachusetts General Hospital conducted an 8-week trial study that recruited children as young as four years old to be drugged and monitored, including having their blood drawn, to see if their tiny four-year-old bodies would tolerate a powerful psychotropic drug (Seroquel). Here's more from ClinicalTrials.gov: This is an 8-week open-label study aimed at assessing the effectiveness and tolerability of Quetiapine, in the treatment of preschool children...

Alli weight loss drug has disgusting side effects and may block fat-soluble vitamins

By Mike Adams, May 17 2006
Everybody is excited, it seems, about the new weight loss drug Alli, which will soon be sold over the counter (no prescription necessary). An FDA review panel gave it the thumbs up, saying it thought the benefits of the drug outweigh the risks to health. Alli is based on the prescription drug Orlistat, which has been on the market for a while and has been giving people diarrhea, anal leakage and other entertaining side effects for quite some time. I'm sure we'll all hear more about these side effects...

USDA downplays seriousness of mad cow disease found in Alabama cow

By Mike Adams, May 15 2006
Mad cow disease was recently confirmed in a cow in Alabama, according to two tests conducted by the U.S. Department of Agriculture. Even so, the USDA seems just as reluctant as usual to admit that U.S. herds continue to be infected with mad cow disease. Even though the results of this second test have been announced, there is a whole lot of spin from the USDA on trying to suppress the severity of this news -- so let me translate it into plain English for you. First, this positive result is from...

Natural medicine may hold solution for bird flu pandemic

By Mike Adams, May 10 2006
The real solution to the bird flu (or any flu) comes from natural sources. To survive most viral infections, all you really need are certain nutritional supplements and powerful medicinal herbs. As Dr. Russell Blaylock explains, "With nutritional supplementation, the elderly can avoid flu vaccination altogether. In my own clinical experience, supplementation dramatically reduces the incidence of ALL viral infection. And should that person become infected with a particularly virulent strain, the severity...
