Toxic America, do you even care? Alan E. Moses March 12, 2007 Could Alternative Medicines be the answer to your ills? With all of the questions that millions throughout America and the world have as to why our healthcare costs continue to rise and seem ineffective. Many are beginning to look for something else such as natural remedies for the multitude of disorders and diseases that come with modern life. Our government agencies claim that natural cures or treatments are not valid. This of course might be due to corporate control as those that are the main contributors to the causes of our illnesses don't want for us to find out. The pharmaceutical industry depends on this fact for its survival. As of today we see that the major medical journals have become journals of questionable information. The FDA and CDC has become a promotional tool for the pharmaceutical industry. Our own doctors have found themselves to be controlled by another industry known as the insurance conglomerate. And this entity is also used by the pharmaceutical industry. Even the pharmacist that in a vast majority of cases now works for another corporation and are no longer the source of information that they once were in the times of honesty and caring that we don't see anymore. This is just another tool of the pharmaceutical industry. There have become many limitations as to what a patient can find concerning truly helpful ways to eliminate the symptoms that they deal with. We have become reliant on the pharmaceutical industry and the pills that it provides and the fact that cures are not the main goals as symptom relief is. After all this is a much greater area for profit. There are people of science that remain true to science and disregard having their work manipulated by the profit seekers. Many of these scientist risk reputations and being outcasts. This is not a new phenomenon as the pharmaceutical industry has been buying out scientific facts for years. An example of this is best described with the thimerosal issue as this mercury based compound found its way into 1,000's of products that many of us and our parents came into contact with. The inventor of this water soluble mercury compound Morris Selig Kharasch entered into a fellowship with the Eli Lilly Company in the mid to late 1920's. This means that his inventions became the property of Lilly. And therefore the marketing department as this is the driving force behind all corporations. This is how science becomes manipulated and truth becomes twisted and not scientific in nature. All marketing is based on not allowing the consumer to hear about any negatives in relation to the product as success depends on this. With the understanding of Multiple Chemical Sensitivity (MCS) and that westernized societies are witnessing drastic increases in pharmaceutical use you might be willing to understand. There is a growing number of those that want answers as to why this situation is becoming worse. The response from our government agencies and industry only seems to become more denials and less openness. The following are 4 cases of what is known as one of the disorders or diseases that have no known. Parkinson's disease fits this bill as we look at these cases. There are those that attempt to find cures and yet the government won't support it. Is this done to protect the guilty? Case # 1 Adolph Hitler: There are many documents that support the claim that he was suffering from Parkinson's. Many claim that his personal physician Dr. Theodore Merrell may have caused this disease. It is well known that Dr. Morrell injected Hitler with a cocktail of vitamins and chemicals to regulate everything from heart trouble to mood swings. A key component is that many don't understand that Hitler suffered from a gastrointestinal disorder also. When this first came about is unknown and how and who treated him is also obscure. One treatment seems to have gone under the radar. This was a mercury based cleansing enema known as Calomel (sub-chloride of mercury).Hitler administered this relief without medical supervision and there was no set program. This was done for over a twenty year period. Calomel had gone out of common use in the 1930's yet there is documentation of Hitler using this treatment as late as September 30, 1944. Case # 2 Mohamed Ali: I will admit that this is done by memory and the documentation is not certain. As we all remember Ali as a great wit and athlete who never failed to produce words we now find him unable to speak or hold himself as he once did. The facts are that he used to train in Pennsylvania at a location that was made up of a compound of log buildings. Once you understand that these logs were treated with chemical compounds including mercury compounds you may see my point. When Ali first showed signs of difficulty it was assumed that boxing had done the damage yet the rumor was that it might have been his training facility. Case # 3 Pharmacist: I will not use his name as this may cause legal issues for him. I worked for this man on and off for 20 plus years. As far as I ever knew he was not involved in drinking or drug abuse. He did however have contact with thousands of drugs by way of his profession. He also used nasal spray everyday despite warnings and these sprays contained the mercury compound thimerosal and other preservatives. Case # 4 Dentist: This was my family dentist as a child and as all cases he was diagnosed with Parkinson's. This is not rare in this field of days gone by. Dentists handled mercury amalgams by hand and even mixed it in their own offices. His diagnoses was given in the early 1980's and so he retired at this point. I offer these four cases to you for an understanding of how we have been dealing with many toxic chemicals and compounds for years. It might be time to listen to these doctors of alternative medicines and see if a detoxification program can help. The fact is that if properly done it cannot hurt. Why doesn't your insurance company not seek lower cost? Why does your government just deny without studies to confirm using independent sources? How many chemicals have you come into contact today? And of those how many have been studied to see if they may cause modern day diseases? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- To sign-off Parkinsn send a message to: mailto:[log in to unmask] In the body of the message put: signoff parkinsn
