 In other words, drug safety no longer has any basis in absolutely safety to the patient and is, instead, based on each drug's relative safety to other dangerous drugs.
By taking this stance, the FDA has made dangerous drugs the default. Consumers may now assume that all FDA-approved drugs are inherently dangerous and meet no reality-based safety standard whatsoever! Please also note that the FDA never applies such risk/reward calculations to herbs or dietary supplements. |
| Diabetes has become a revenue-generating disease that profit-minded corporations use to sell people a lifetime of dangerous drugs that neither prevent nor cure the disease -- they just leave patients in a state of drug dependence, trapped in a system of medicine that requires them to keep paying for dangerous prescription medications sold to Americans at FDA-enforced monopoly prices. The whole system is a criminal operation and violates numerous federal laws on price fixing, anti-trade and racketeering. |

 There are a great number of dangerous poisons in the average American home. The typical pantry is loaded with toxic chemicals. This is something I've been warning about for years, but most people just laugh it off and say "If these things were dangerous, they wouldn't be legal!" Yet they remain perfectly legal and quite dangerous at the same time.
For example, most people still use dryer sheets in their dryer. These sheets really serve no function other than to spread perfume all over your clothing. They're perfume sheets. |

Please also note that the FDA never applies such risk/reward calculations to herbs or dietary supplements. If an herb is implicated in the death of a single person, the FDA can rule it to be "unsafe at any dose" and outlaw it entirely. A pharmaceutical with 100,000 times that fatality rate, however, can be justified by the FDA as being "worth the risk. |

 While I support the consumption of raw, unprocessed milk, I think that consuming processed, homogenized milk is dangerous to the health of infants, children and adults alike!
11. Fast food
Fast food is extremely unhealthy for children. Not only are the foods often fried, homogenized, hydrogenated and otherwise altered, they're also laced with chemical additives, taste enhancers, processed sugars, petrochemical food coloring and other unhealthy substances. |

 So the next time you hear the FDA warning you about how dangerous and deadly all those Chinese products are, remember what they're NOT telling you: the hazards of American-made food and personal care products, almost all of which are intentionally and knowingly laced with cancer-causing chemicals. |

| The FDA does not deny that the drug is dangerous. Members of the FDA's Endocrinologic and Metabolic Drugs Advisory Committee and the Drug Safety and Risk Management Advisory Committee voted 20-3 to acknowledge the finding that the drug raises the risk of heart attacks, and called for stronger warning labels.
Dr. Clifford J. Rosen, from St. Joseph Hospital in Bangor, Maine, said after the meeting that "there was enough concern on the advisory committee that virtually everybody felt there was risk" of heart attacks from taking Avandia. |

 REPPED: People are rather confused over news that the bird flu virus has now mutated to a less lethal, but far more dangerous, form. It seems like a contradiction: If it's less lethal, shouldn't it be less dangerous?
No. The mainstream press isn't explaining this very well, so let me cover the basics. It has to do with evolutionary biology, or what you might call microbiological Darwinism, which basically involves how these viruses survive, thrive and get passed on from one person to the next. |

| These drugs are so dangerous that feeding them to children should be considered a crime. Every single school shooting involving a child in the United States in the last 15 years has been linked to antidepressant drug use. Need I say more?
13. Chemical laundry detergents
Parents are shown fancy ads on television depicting how wonderful and clean their clothes will be if they wash them in brand-name laundry detergent. What they're not shown, however, is the toxicity of all the synthetic chemicals that go into most laundry detergent products. |
| Hot dogs are far more dangerous to a child's health than lead paint in my opinion, and yet parents keep feeding them to their children!
4. Antibacterial soap
How about a little nerve toxin in your soap? That's what's found in antibacterial soap. It's a toxic cocktail of chemicals designed to kill life. That's how it kills bacteria. The problem is that it also harms people -- especially infants and children who are trying to develop healthy nervous systems. Avoid all products claiming to be "antibacterial." You're better off using natural soap (like Dr. Bronner's soap, www.DrBronner. |
| Vaccines are preserved with methyl mercury, one of the most dangerous chemical forms of the toxic heavy metal. This mercury is injected directly into the bodies of children where it causes severe neurological damage. And yes, it does cause Autism, despite what you've read in the dumbed-down press. Only a fool would inject their child with mercury-preserved vaccines.
3. Hot dogs
Hot dogs are made with horrifying processed meat parts (click here to see shocking photos of processed meat products, then preserved with a cancer-causing ingredient called sodium nitrite. |
| Why is it considered highly dangerous for a child to merely touch a toy with .06 percent lead paint while it is considered perfectly safe for a child to chew on a filling made with 40 percent mercury? Mercury is far more toxic than lead in many ways, yet the media has nothing to say about the mass poisoning of children through the outmoded dental work still being performed on children today. Mercury fillings were invented before the Civil War, and they're just as toxic now as they were then!
Of course, if dental fillings were made in China, the U.S. |
| Keeping your health priorities straight
So that's the list of 20 items that are more dangerous to the health of children than the lead paint in Mattel toys. Most parents have no concern whatsoever for any of these 20 things, but they're going ape-shoot-crazy over the tiny amounts of lead in their Barbie toys and Elmo stuffed animals. It all just goes to show you that the sheeple will think anything the mainstream media tells them to think (and they'll ignore everything else). |

 Recently, an FDA advisory panel voted to recommend that a dangerous prescription drug Tysabri, which was withdrawn from the market a year ago due to its promoting of a deadly brain disease, should now be put back on the market.
But here's the really shocking part: The justification for this decision to reinstate a drug with known deadly side effects is based on the idea that patients should now weigh the risks of dangerous drugs and decide for themselves whether the risks outweigh the benefits, if any.
Stop the music for a minute. |
| Food and Drug Administration, the agency that claims to be responsible for protecting consumers from dangerous food and drug products, has just surrendered its primary responsibility. Recently, an FDA advisory panel voted to recommend that a dangerous prescription drug Tysabri, which was withdrawn from the market a year ago due to its promoting of a deadly brain disease, should now be put back on the market. |
| In other words, the FDA now sees its job as protecting the public from "dangerous" herbs while shirking safety responsibilities on truly dangerous prescription drugs. It's up to the public to decide whether deadly drugs are worth the risk, according to the FDA. But when one herb which has been safely used for 5,000 years in Chinese medicine happens to harm 20 people who overdosed in a mad weight loss frenzy, the FDA bans it "to protect everyone! |
| I've often said that no drug is too dangerous to meet FDA safety requirements, and now the FDA has proven it. Even a drug that outright kills patients with a painful, horrifying death will now be FDA approved. There is no longer even the concept of safety standards at the FDA. Now, there is merely avoidance of assessing safety.
The agency that was once tasked with actually regulating the drug industry has now become its largest marketing department. The concept of drug "safety" is now history. Any drug, no matter how dangerous, is now qualified for FDA approval. |

If you're a really deadly virus -- like Ebola, which kills 90 percent of the people infected -- then you're actually not very good at spreading from one person to the next. Why? You kill your host too quickly. |

| And now that they come out of the dryer, they are dangerous to your health, because now they have been soaked in a toxic chemical cocktail. And people put these clothes on every single day, then walk around and produce sweat which moistens the clothes, and that accelerates the diffusion of such chemicals into their bloodstream through their skin. They do this and then they wonder why they are diseased. They think their laundry is clean because it smells like perfume.
The average American household is a toxic chemical dump. |

| The bird flu gets more dangerous, but less lethal
Now, given all of this, let's go back to the very beginning and talk about the World Health Organization's announcement about the bird flu virus. Experts of infectious disease say that the bird flu virus is now mutating to a less lethal strain and it has them very worried. Hopefully, this now makes perfect sense: instead of killing 90 percent of people, the bird flu virus is lowering its kill rate to an estimated 50 percent. |

 This extreme double standard is standard operating procedure at the FDA, where all herbs are considered dangerous until proven safe, and all drugs are considered safe until proven dangerous.)
The hysteria of modern medicine
In my opinion, any woman taking Lybrel is embarking on a foolish experiment with her own health. It is not merely a dangerous course of action to pursue, it is the ultimate surrender of personal responsibility for one's own health. It also admits to a male-dominated medical system that womanhood is, indeed, some sort of terrible disease that requires treatment. |

 The 26 beliefs that drive modern medicine and the FDA
All herbs are dangerous and might kill you.
Vitamins and dietary supplements are not only useless; they're so dangerous that they should be regulated or banned.
The only thing more dangerous than dietary supplements is allowing the public to have access to accurate information about dietary supplements. To maintain control, the public must be kept ignorant of the medicinal uses of all substances other than patented chemicals. |

| But this virus was good at spreading from one host to another, which is what made it extremely dangerous.
Hospitals are breeding grounds for infectious disease
Viruses also like to spread in hospitals. Medical staff personnel are right there touching the patient, trying to help him or her. At that point, a patient can be convulsing and literally flinging body fluids around the room: blood, mucous, phlegm, saliva, etc. This is actually a very "successful" way for a virus to spread. This is precisely how some of these viruses do spread. |
| I just wanted to explain evolutionary biology and why a less-fatal virus becomes more dangerous. However, if you are looking for real solutions, read my book "How to Beat the Bird Flu Virus." You can find it on www.truthpublishing.com. There's even a downloadable free report, listing 12 potent antiviral foods, herbs and nutritional supplements that, based on my research, are far more powerful than Tamiflu. They work in ways less likely to be obsolete, even if the virus mutates. |

 Isn't someone who takes longer than one second to respond to a red light and apply pressure to the brake pedal a danger to other drivers, and aren't slow people in fact far more dangerous than drivers who carry cell phones? I think they are. I mean, if we're going to get serious about driver safety and ban cell phones, we should ban anyone who's taking a great number of prescription drugs from driving.
I was talking with a traffic control officer here recently who said that as many as 30 to 35 percent of all traffic accidents are caused by people who are dosed up on prescription drugs. |

 If sodium nitrite is so dangerous, why does the food industry use it? Simple: this chemical just happens to turn meats bright red. It's actually a color fixer, and it makes old, dead meats appear fresh and vibrant. Thus, food manufacturers insist on using sodium nitrite for the simple reason that it sells more meat products. Consumers are strongly influenced by the color of grocery products (which is why Florida oranges are often dipped in red dye, by the way), and when meat products look fresh, people will buy them, even if the true color of the months-old meat is putrid gray. |
