NaturalNews exposes secret vaccine industry ties and military involvement with Institute of Medicine, reveals fatal conflicts of interest at IoM

NaturalNews exposes secret vaccine industry ties and military involvement with Institute of Medicine, reveals fatal conflicts of interest at IoM
by Mike Adams, the Health Ranger, NaturalNews Editor

(NaturalNews) The Institute of Medicine is suddenly in the news following the release of its vaccine “adverse events” research which found that MMR vaccines actually cause measles, seizures and anaphylactic shock. The old media predictably distorted the story and used it to deceptively announce that “vaccines are not linked to autism!”

In falsely reporting this study from the IoM, however, the old media reporters never bothered to even read the adverse reactions report. Nor did they ask a few simple questions such as “Who is funding the Institute of Medicine? And what is the agenda of the IoM?”

Today, NaturalNews publishes a stunning story about the IoM which reveals this government-created non-profit to be a key player in the military medical complex involving a shady network of weapons manufacturers, the Department of Homeland Security, top pharmaceutical companies and population control globalists such as Bill Gates. Here, we expose who’s giving the IoM money and why the actual sources of funding behind the IoM destroy any credibility it once claimed to have on the subject of public health.

We’ve already published the first honest assessment of the IoM’s report in a news item posted yesterday:

http://www.naturalnews.com/033447_Institute_of_Medicine_vaccines.html

That story takes an honest investigative look at the IoM and what its report really says. The old “dinosaur” media, as usual, has predictably twisted this story around and falsely claimed that it gives vaccines a clean bill of health. Only NaturalNews (and other alternative media organizations) dares tell the truth while questioning the IoM’s financial ties and funding sources. The entire mainstream media blindly accepts the IoM’s “authority” as beyond reproach, neglecting to conduct basic journalism and follow the money as NaturalNews is doing.

By the way, you can view the IoM’s full report for yourself at:

http://naturalnews.com/files/Adverse-Effects-of-Vaccines-Evidence-Cau…

Why does the truth about the Institute of Medicine really matter?
Because the IoM is positioned by the federal government as an independent, “prestigious” organization whose decisions are based on scientific facts. When the U.S. government rolls out its upcoming mandatory vaccination requirements, it will cite the Institute of Medicine as the source that said vaccines were safe (even though that’s a lie).

The FDA, for example, cites the Institute of Medicine is setting its own vaccine policies (http://www.fda.gov/BiologicsBloodVaccines/SafetyAvailability/VaccineS…). The USDA also turns to the IoM for its recommendations on things like school lunch programs (http://www.fns.usda.gov/cga/pressreleases/2009/PR-0516.htm).

Even more to the point, President Obama’s recent demand that health insurance companies pay for birth control medication was based on the Institute of Medicine’s recommendation (http://www.lifenews.com/2011/08/01/obama-admin-will-force-coverage-of…). It was the IoM that put forth the guidelines to “require new health insurance plans to cover women’s preventive services” including “FDA-approved contraception methods and contraceptive counseling.”

Even the CDC commissioned the IoM to study the control of viral hepatitis infections, after which the CDC quickly advised that all infants should be injected with multiple hepatitis vaccines “…as soon as they are stable and washed.” In this same set of recommendations, the IoM advised that students who are not vaccinated against hepatitis B should not be allowed to attend school. (http://www.cdc.gov/hepatitis/IOMnews.htm)

The IoM, in other words, is the go-to organization for the setting of government health policy. Never mind the fact that the IoM is two-thirds funded by government itself and also takes money from the world’s top vaccine manufacturers. The conflicts of interest within the IoM are not merely notable, but severe conflicts of interest. They are so prominent, in fact, that no person in their right mind should believe a word the IoM says about vaccines, yet both the government and the mainstream media is positioning the IoM as (somehow) being a trustworthy independent non-profit that tells the truth about vaccines.

Even the Washington Legal Foundation (http://www.wlf.org), a group that advocates free choice in health care (and personal freedom in general), charged that the FDA could not legally accept recommendations from the Institute of Medicine because the committee members put forth by the IoM did not meet the lawful requirement of being “fairly balanced.”

“Using advice from a committee that lacks fair balance encroaches upon Congress’ mandate that each Advisory Committee should be representative of a broad range of viewpoints and should include affected individuals,” said WLF Chief Counsel Richard Samp after filing WLF’s Citizen Petition. (http://www.policymed.com/2011/07/institute-of-medicine-fda-510k-advis…)

This is where the danger really lies. Everybody else in government listens to the IoM and usually adopts its recommendations as public health policy. And yet the IoM is actually run and financed by a complex network of globalists and vaccine promoters, as you’ll see below.

Because of the IoM’s unchallenged influence in setting public health policy, we are all being set up for a military-run mass vaccination campaign funded in part by the Department of Homeland Security and the Department of Defense, and relying on vaccine-tracking information technology from companies like Northrup Grumman, a weapons manufacturer with a history of illegal international arms trafficking. (More details below.)

This is what vaccines have become in America today: A military agenda against the People. And the IoM sits at the hub of influence for this diabolical command center. This is all explained in more detail in the rest of this story, as well as in upcoming stories about the IoM slated for publication here on NaturalNews.

Please share this story far and wide so that your friends and colleagues can learn the truth about the IoM and where its money really comes from.

I wish to thank the NaturalNews Facebook fans who conducted much of this research to help us find the truth behind the Institute of Medicine (www.Facebook.com/HealthRanger)

The IoM’s secret ties to the military and weapons manufacturers
The Institute of Medicine was created by Congress in 1970. On its website, the IoM claims “we do not receive direct federal funding for our work,” which as you will soon see is a highly misleading statement, given that 64.9% of the IoM’s funds actually come from the federal government.

NaturalNews learned that the IoM is funded by the Who’s Who of the most evil corporations, non-profits and government organizations involved in things like secret medical experiments on humans, global population control agendas, the spread of degenerative disease, international arms trafficking and crimes against humanity (see list below).

The IoM is also blatantly deceptive about where its funding comes from. While its website claims it does not receive federal funding for its work, an investigation by Senator Coburn’s office reveals that 55% of the IOM’s funding comes from the government (http://coburn.senate.gov/public/index.cfm/rightnow?ContentRecord_id=a…). This number varies year to year, of course, and we’ve found documentation showing this number to be as high as 64.9%.

It all begs the question: Why would the IoM try to hide the fact that it receives so much money from the federal government? We’ll get more into that later, but first, check out some of the government organizations from which the IoM receives its money:

Government departments that fund the IoM
• Department of Homeland Security
• Department of Defense
• Department of Health and Human Services
• EPA (in charge of allowing corporate pollution of our nation)
• USDA (the pro-Monsanto, pro-GMO sellout)
• Social Security Administration

In all, two-thirds of the IoMs money comes from government sources, several of which are military and “homeland security” related. What this reveals is that various government agencies function as “shell companies” to funnel money into the IoM. More than five percent of the IoM’s funding comes from the Department of Defense, and a further 3.6% comes from the Department of Homeland Security.

It makes you wonder: What does WAR have to do with medicine? Well, everything, as you’ll soon see. In 2008, the Department of Homeland Security requested that the IoM conduct a workshop entitled, “Medical Preparedness for a Nuclear Detonation in a Major U.S. City”. (http://www.iom.edu/Reports/2009/NucEventPrepWS.aspx) The workshop “assessed the ability of emergency services, healthcare, and federal, state, and local authorities to respond to a nuclear weapon equivalent to 10 kilotons of TNT detonated during a workday in a central business district of a large U.S. metropolitan area.”

The IoM even managed to twist the terror attacks of 9/11 into its own pro-vaccine agenda, issuing a strongly worded press release on November 5, 2011 which declared, “[America's] capacity to develop, produce, and store vaccines to deal with these agents is inadequate to meet the nation’s needs.” The IoM then recommended the creation of a “National Vaccine Authority” which would be used to spearhead the U.S. government getting into the vaccine manufacturing business in what the IoM calls a “the creation of a government-owned, contractor-operated national vaccine facility.” (i.e. the federal government actually manufacturing vaccines, mandating their use, outlawing lawsuits against vaccines and imprisoning those who refuse to take them). (http://www.iom.edu/Global/News%20Announcements/Statement-from-the-IOM…)

The IoM describes this “vaccine authority” as a group that “…could become a source of appropriate reliable information to the media health care personnel, policy-makers, and the public.” (i.e. a vaccine propaganda Ministry of Truth.)

Vaccinating all the children of the world
Immediately following this recommendation, the IoM published a document called “The Children’s Vaccine Initiative: Achieving the Vision” which it describes as “…an international endeavor to ensure that children throughout the world are immunized. One of the best opportunities to address the growing problem of immunization in the United States …lies in marshaling the vaccine development and production efforts in the United States and abroad.” (http://www.nap.edu/catalog.php?record_id=2224)

In addition to receiving funds from the DOD and DHS, the IoM also allows its key reports to be reviewed by weapons manufacturers before they are published. Its recent report on vaccine adverse reactions, for example, was reviewed by Sam Shekar from the military defense contractor Northrop Grumman, a weapons manufacturer and military technology engineering company that has been caught engaging in illegal international arms trafficking by the U.S. State Department. A subsidiary of Northrup Grumman “provided portions of the computer source code of Air Force One to a Russian company in 1998,” reports Wikipedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Northrop_Grumman#Scandals).

Northrup Grumman also illegally sold computer guidance systems to Angola, Indonesia, Israel, China, Ukraine and Yemen.

On the health front, Northrup Grumman was awarded a key role in a $5 billion grant from the CDC to run a “public health” information technology program. (http://www.irconnect.com/noc/press/pages/news_releases.html?d=203128)

What’s a public health information technology program? It is a cybersecurity technology system used to track people who have been vaccinated while monitoring the spread of infectious disease (which the IoM admits is caused by the vaccines themselves). Remember: Most people who are diagnosed with infectious disease are the very same people who were vaccinated against those diseases! (http://www.naturalnews.com/033399_vaccines_measles.html)

We suspect this technology will likely be used to track and enforce an upcoming militarized mandatory vaccine agenda in much the same way that IBM sold its technology to the Nazi regime in World War II to track Jewish prisoners as they were hauled off to concentration camps. (http://www.ibmandtheholocaust.com/home.php)

In this, we have a blurring of the lines between military and medicine. The theme that emerges from all this is that conventional medicine is being militarized, and the signs of that are all around us (see more, below). For example, the FDA has stepped up its armed raids on innocent dairy farmers, using “shock troop” tactics while borrowing techniques from the KGB to build a network of spies and infiltrators (http://www.naturalnews.com/033428_FDA_secret_war.html).

That an international arms trafficker is now being given grant money by the CDC to engineer and run a “CDC global health mission” is a direct admission of the globalist agenda behind these criminal organizations. The Northrup Grumman press release on this admits that the contract work with the CDC will be conducted in “50 countries around the world” involving “20 business and university partners.”

Private sources of money for the Institute of Medicine
While 64.9% of its funding comes from the federal government, 32.7% comes from private sources. See page 55 of the following report to see for yourself:

http://www.naturalnews.com/files/PresSupplement-2010.pdf

That funding chart does not break down private sources of money for the IoM, so once again, NaturalNews turned to its researchers on Facebook (www.Facebook.com/HealthRanger) to find out where all this money is actually coming from. The answers may surprise you.

For starters, the IoM receives funding from the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation which is, of course, a total front for vaccines and Big Pharma. This alone completely biases the IoM, as having financial ties with this foundation is really like being caught with your hand in the vaccine cookie jar.

The Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, for those who don’t know, recently declared this to be the “decade of vaccines” (http://www.naturalnews.com/031703_Bill_Gates_vaccines.html) and pledged ten billion dollars to make sure that every man, woman and child on the planet is injected with at least one vaccine shot, and preferably several.

And what’s the real agenda behind this? Bill Gates has publicly stated that vaccines will be used to reduce the global population. Specifically, he says, “The world today has 6.8 billion people… that’s headed up to about 9 billion. Now if we do a really great job on new vaccines, health care, reproductive health services, we could lower that by perhaps 10 or 15 percent.” (http://www.naturalnews.com/029911_vaccines_Bill_Gates.html)

Watch the video of Bill Gates saying this at:

http://www.naturalnews.tv/v.asp?v=A155D113455FAC882A3290536575C723

By accepting money from the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, the Institute of Medicine is taking part in a campaign of human genocide while exposing its own pro-vaccine interests.

Bill Gates is also listed as a “lifetime contributor” to the IoM, giving “$100,000 or more” to the IOM. Other contributors who gave big money to the IoM include Margaret Hamburg, the current head of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, the same agency currently masterminding KGB-style infiltration schemes and running an illegal network of government spies to destroy the raw dairy industry (http://www.naturalnews.com/033428_FDA_secret_war.html).

In addition, globalist Ted Turner is listed as a major contributor. See the rest of the names of those who give money to the IoM at the end of this article — it’s a who’s who of globalists, financial elitists, pharma executives and vaccine pushers, including people with links to the Federal Reserve, JP Morgan, Goldman Sachs, the Rockefellers and more.

Junk food promoters found funding the Institute of Medicine
Beyond taking money from the genocidal Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, the IoM is also funded at times from junk food and soda companies such as PepsiCo (http://www.iom.edu/Reports/2009/Mitigating-Nutritional-Impacts-of-Glo…)

Even more interestingly, a prominent board member of PepsiCo is also a member of the Institute of Medicine: Victor J. Dzau, a conventional medical doctor, has made the rounds through Harvard Medical School and Duke University. Now he’s a top PepsiCo board member while simultaneously serving as a director of these three pharmaceutical and medical device companies: Genzyme Corporation, Alnylam Pharmaceuticals, Inc. and Medtronic, Inc. (http://www.pepsico.com/Company/Board-of-Directors-and-Committees.html…) and (http://people.forbes.com/profile/victor-j-dzau/3593)

Ring any bells? Medtronic is the company that was recently caught bribing a doctor to fabricate study results (http://www.naturalnews.com/027745_Medtronic_fraud.html). The company was also caught up in allegations of Medicare fraud (http://www.nytimes.com/2008/05/23/business/23device.html) and was sued by 22 states, which said Medtronic “unlawfully and unabashedly developed, marketed and promoted its biliary stent medical devices for uses unapproved by the Food and Drug Administration.” (http://www.kare11.com/news/news_article.aspx?storyid=842852)

Genzyme Corporation, on which Victor Dzau also sits as a board member, is a fully owned subsidiary of Sanofi-Aventis (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Genzyme), one of the world’s largest vaccine manufacturers and the company that recently received hundreds of millions of dollars in government vaccine contracts for the hyped up H5N1 swine flu scare. Sanofi-Aventis admittedly received $192.5 million from the U.S. government just in the second quarter of 2008 to produce vaccines for a “pandemic stockpile” against H5N1 (http://en.sanofi.com/press/press_releases/2008/ppc_14662.asp).

Genzyme produces medicines to treat kidney disease, one of the most common side effects of flu vaccines. (http://www.naturalnews.com/030299_vaccination_flu_shots.html) In this way, the more vaccines that are injected into people, the more kidney disease drugs can be sold by companies such as Genzyme.

And yet Genzyme has questionable health practices itself! In June, 2009, Genzyme’s U.S. manufacturing plant was shut down due to the discovery that it suffered from a “viral contamination.” In November of 2009, “fragments of stainless steel, rubber, and fiber-like material were discovered in some of Genzyme’s drugs,” after which the FDA said all those drugs should stay on the market because there was no evidence of any side effects from those materials. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Genzyme#Contamination_incidents)

Not surprisingly, Victor Dzau was named a “Distinguished Scientist” by the American Heart Association and was the recipient of the 2004 Max Delbruck Medal, Berlin, Germany. Max Delbruck, by the way, was a German biophysicist who promoted the idea that living systems (including humans) are nothing more than biochemical robots, and his work on molecular genetics was, in many ways, ground-laying work for modern-day genetic engineering (GMOs).

Other board members of PepsiCo, in case you were curious, read like a who’s who of the most powerful (and some say “evil”) corporate giants in the world: JP Morgan, Colgate-Palmolive, Google, Novartis AG and more.

Beyond PepsiCo, the IoM also receives money from these producers of processed dead foods, fast foods and foods made with (collectively) hundreds of different synthetic chemicals and preservatives:

• Kraft Foods, Inc.
• Mars Incorporated
• McDonald’s Corporation
• Mead Johnson Nutritionals

The IoM’s ties to Big Pharma
In addition to its ties with junk food companies, the IoM receives millions of dollars in grant money from pharmaceutical companies, using that money to create new staff positions which claim to be “providing the nation with sound advice grounded in scientific evidence, to improve people’s health and well-being.” For example, the IoM received this $2 million grant from a pharmaceutical company (Schaeffer): http://www.iom.edu/About-IOM/Support-IOM/Recent-Gifts.aspx

Schaeffer is a total pharma insider, according to Forbes Magazine, which lists him as the director of pharma giant Allergan, Inc: http://people.forbes.com/profile/leonard-d-schaeffer/3035

Allergan is most famous for producing BOTOX, a cosmetic treatment made from a deadly viral strain best known for killing people through food poisoning.

In addition, the IoM has financial ties to Merck, Pfizer, Astrazeneca and nearly all the top pharmaceutical companies, most of which also profit from producing and selling vaccines:

• AstraZeneca Pharmaceuticals L.P.
• Bristol-Myers Squibb Company
• Eli Lilly and Company
• GlaxoSmithKline
• Johnson & Johnson Pharmaceutical Research & Development, LLC
• Merck & Company, Inc.
• Novartis Pharmaceuticals Corporation
• Pfizer, Inc.
• Sanofi Pasteur
• Sanofi-aventis
• Wyeth

In addition to promoting pharmaceutical interests, the IoM has also pushed its agenda of regulating dietary supplements as if they were drugs, thereby hoping to outlaw virtually all supplements sold on the market today (http://www.anh-usa.org/u-s-institute-of-medicine-study-urges-new-appr…).

IoM’s huge conflicts of interest with vaccine producers
Notably, the pharmaceutical companies listed above represent the top vaccine producers on the planet, once again showing that the IoM has severe conflicts of interest in producing a report on vaccine adverse reactions.

This is like the fox guarding the hen house! If the IoM told the truth about the dangers of vaccines, it would risk losing a significant portion of its funding and discrediting many of its most prominent financial supporters. (It makes you wonder: Why didn’t Forbes raise this question? Or the NY Times? Or Washington Post? Or any mainstream media organization? Why is real journalism dead in America today everywhere except in the alternative media like NaturalNews, which is fast becoming the most popular choice for discerning readers?)

In addition, vaccines cause the very health conditions which are profitably treated by the pharmaceutical products of these companies. Thus, today’s entire medical racket of treating sickness and “managing disease” requires that disease to be propagated in the first place. Vaccines play a key role in causing immunological disorders, compromising the nervous system, damaging kidneys, promoting cancer and causing the very diseases that keep Big Pharma in business.

If you’re skeptical of that, watch this stunning, jaw-dropping video admission of much of this from a top Merck scientist, the “father” of many modern vaccines, who openly admits that vaccines contain hidden cancer viruses:

http://naturalnews.tv/v.asp?v=13EAAF22CDA367BB3C2F94D2CD90EF7B

The IoM’s ties to foundations and globalist groups
The IoM also receives funding from other institutions (such as NIH) which are funded by government — and they largely operate as pharma front groups to push more vaccines, more pharmaceuticals and more medications for Americas; often while downplaying any role of nutrients such as vitamin D.

Here’s a list of some of the non-profit groups that donate money to the IoM. Note the presence of all the corporatists and globalists:

• W. K. Kellogg Foundation (tied to the Kellogg’s cereal company)
• The Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation
• The Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation
• Merck Company Foundation
• The Rowe Family Foundation
• Morgan Stanley Smith Barney Global Impact Funding Trust, Inc.
• The John D. and Catherine T. MacArthur Foundation
• The Whitehead Foundation (ties to Goldman Sachs, and John C. Whitehead was a former board member of the Federal Reserve. He also oversaw the Whitehead family’s fortune of investments in the Rockefeller Group.)

IoM’s ties to globalist food and agriculture companies
The food and agriculture companies that give money to the IoM represent some of the most evil corporations in the world, including Monsanto which seeks to dominate the world food supply through its GMO seed technologies.

Here are some of the food and agriculture companies that financially support the IoM:

• Cargill, Inc.- sold ground turkey widely contaminated with salmonella, which resulted in fatalities (http://www.naturalnews.com/033283_ground_turkey_salmonella.html)

• ConAgra, Inc.- sued for falsely labeling GMO oils as “natural” (http://www.naturalnews.com/news_000223_ConAgra_sued_GMO_oil_fraud.htm…)

• General Mills, Inc. – engaged in deceptive food labeling (http://www.naturalnews.com/031053_General_Mills_Total_cereal.html)

• McDonald’s Corporation – sells Chicken McNuggets that contain an industrial chemical (http://www.naturalnews.com/032820_Chicken_McNuggets_ingredients.html)

• Monsanto Company – voted “most evil corporation” by NaturalNews readers (http://www.naturalnews.com/030967_Monsanto_evil.html)

• PepsiCo, Inc. – produces aspartame-laden diet soft drinks also made with high-fructose corn syrup. Uses MSG throughout many of its snacks.

As you can see, these companies aggregately support factory farmed animal meat production, dishonest and deceptive food labeling, “terminator” seed technology that destroys seeds and is contributing to the global spread of suicides by farmers, the promotion of obesity and diabetes through the use of high-fructose corn syrup, the neurotoxic poisoning of consumers through aspartame-sweetened beverages, monopolistic trade practices, abuses of the court system and much more.

If Hell had a board of directors, many of these corporations would have members sitting on it. And these are the members who financially support the Institute of Medicine.

Interestingly, the IoM also has financial ties to several health insurance companies who profit from sickness, disease and vaccines, including Aetna Inc. and Kaiser Permanente.

The IoM’s financial ties to the sickness and disease industry
Not surprisingly, the IoM is funded by a large number of influential (and wealthy) organizations in the cancer industry, the diabetes industry, and the sickness industry in general.

Here are some of the national groups — all of which profit from disease — that funnel money to the Institute of Medicine:

• American Association for Cancer Research
• American Cancer Society, Inc.
• American Chemistry Council
• American Diabetes Association
• American Hospital Association
• American Medical Association
• American Nurses Association
• American Society of Clinical Oncology
• Association of American Medical Colleges
• College of American Pathologists
• Critical Path Institute
• Infectious Diseases Society of America
• National Association of Chain Drug Stores Foundation
• National Society of Genetic Counselors
• Oncology Nursing Society
• Pharmaceutical Research and Manufacturers of America (PhRMA)
• Task Force for Child Survival and Development

As you can probably tell, nearly all of these organizations are pro-chemical, pro-chemotherapy, pro-vaccine, anti-nutrition, anti-health freedom organizations that function as disease parasites on society, profiting from sickness rather than showing people how to be healthy. None of these organizations, for example, has yet to firmly promote vitamin D as a simple, low-cost, nearly-miraculous nutrient that can prevent cancer, diabetes, osteoporosis, depression, gum disease, kidney disorders and many other health conditions.

They are all steeped in the false mythology of western medicine and its drugs-pushing, profit-seeking agenda which includes the mass vaccination of the population.

IoM is headed by pro-vaccine globalists with ties to WHO, CDC
After learning who funds the IoM, you might still be wondering: Who runs the Institute of Medicine?

The IoM is currently headed by Dr. Harvey Fineberg, a globalist with ties to the World Health Organization, which of course heavily pushed its H5N1 swine flu vaccination charade through a “panel of experts” who were taking money from the pharmaceutical companies to declare a global pandemic when there wasn’t one. The whole purpose of this conspiracy involving the WHO and the CDC was to sell more vaccines. (http://www.naturalnews.com/029481_vaccines_WHO.html)

Dr. Fineberg also has ties to the CDC, the other group pushing vaccines and killing children through its incessant infectious disease mongering. The CDC’s own vaccine research scientist, Poul Thorsen, has been indicted under federal law for alleged money laundering (http://www.naturalnews.com/032216_Thorsen_fraud.html). See the Web of Alleged Fraud involving the CDC, Merck, Thorsen and medical journals at: http://www.naturalnews.com/files/Web-of-Alleged-Fraud.pdf

In 1988, Dr. Fineberg received the Joseph W. Mountin Prize from the CDC. Fineberg is, predictably, a Harvard graduate where he earned a conventional medical degree from Harvard Medical School plus a Ph.D. in government from a Harvard graduate school. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harvey_V._Fineberg) Harvard is a source for many of the most despicable medical globalists who promote things like GMOs, vaccines and even chemotherapy for children.

Fineberg also served as the president of the Society for Medical Decision Making, a Big Pharma front group that promotes the use of vaccines and pharmaceuticals while claiming to follow a “scientific” decision process. This group receives money from the PhRMA Foundation, a total Big Pharma money funneling outfit that uses its grant money to influence the work of other organizations. It is funded by Merck, Eli Lilly, Bayer, Astrazeneca, Pfizer, GlaxoSmithKline and all the big pharmaceutical players.

Dr. Fineberg is a pro-vaccine globalist who even describes the 1976 swine flu vaccination fiasco which killed hundreds of Americans and damaged thousands from vaccine side effects a “qualified success” because it resulted in 40 million Americans being vaccinated. The way these vaccine pushers think, the more people get vaccinated, the better… no matter how many people die in the process. They literally do not seem to mind sacrificing the lives of innocent people as long as more vaccines can be injected into the masses.

To this day, the IoM still will not openly admit that the 1976 swine flu vaccines killed anyone at all. In fact, the IoM was instrumental in laying out the false fairy tale that swine flu vaccines were never responsible for Guillain-Barre syndrome. As the totally discredited government website Flu.Gov explains:

“The Institute of Medicine (IOM) conducted a thorough scientific review in 2003 and concluded that people who received the 1976 swine influenza vaccine had a slight increased risk for developing GBS. Scientists have multiple theories on why this increased risk may have occurred, but the exact reason for this association remains unknown.” (http://answers.flu.gov/questions/4204)

In other words, they swept it under the rug and now pretend such a link doesn’t exist.

A total Big Pharma cesspool of money, influence and quackery
Essentially, what we’re looking at here with Institute of Medicine, its director, its funding sources and its laughably unscientific conclusions is an orgy of Big Pharma money and influence peddling masquerading as scientifically-grounded public health.

When the IoM recently issued its report on vaccine adverse effects, what it was essentially doing was running interference for all its financial supporters which are, of course dominated by vaccine manufacturers and dubious government organizations such as the Dept. of Health and Human Services which oversees the criminal U.S. Food and Drug Administration.

The point of all this is to spread the fabricated story that “vaccines are essentially safe” and thus there is no harm in mandating that the entire population be injected with them.

That’s what’s coming soon, you see: A mandatory vaccination policy which will no doubt cite this IoM report as being a “credible” and “scientific” review of all the evidence concerning vaccines. Such a claim would be, of course, completely laughable if it weren’t dealing with life and death issues.

Countless children are killed every year by vaccines, and many more become autistic after their nervous systems collapse in the hours or days following vaccine injections. And yet what’s clear from all the attacks, the lies, the cover-ups and the total criminal corruption from the medical industry that we’ve seen over the past couple of years is that the medical military establishment is desperately trying to destroy or dismiss all the evidence linking vaccines to autism.

This IoM report is essentially the work of vaccine industry cover-up con artists and quacks who are protecting their financial sponsors: the vaccine manufacturers.

Is anyone really surprised?

We need your help to spread the word about vaccines, drug makers and the outrageous conflicts of interest at the Institute of Medicine.

Please share this story on social networks and websites. Forward it to your friends or even post it on your website (with proper credit and a link back to NaturalNews, please).

NaturalNews is, to my knowledge, the only news organization in the world that has taken the time to really dig into the financial ties of the Institute of Medicine. All the other mainstream media presstitutes have long ago surrendered to a globalist agenda and no longer practice anything resembling journalism. They merely regurgitate corporate lies, then call it “medical news.”

But here at NaturalNews, we believe that the role of journalism in a free society is to ask the tough questions… to be a little pushy and look for the real story behind the P.R. announcements. It is sad that only the alternative media (which is quickly becoming the dominant media now) dares cover the truth about this story, but that’s exactly why we need your help in getting this story more widely read by others.

This story can’t be completely told, by the way, without mentioning the National Vaccine Injury Compensation Program, an elaborate scheme set up by the U.S. government to insulate pharmaceutical companies from lawsuits that should have been filed by all the parents of children damaged by vaccines. Think about this: Vaccines are so dangerous that the U.S. government had to set up an extra-constitutional court system just to make sure the American people can’t seek justice against Big Pharma!

The vaccine industry is run by such a powerful cabal of medical criminals that even the U.S. Supreme Court says it has no jurisdiction whatsoever when it comes to the Vaccine Injury Compensation Program. In other words, this kangaroo court is more powerful than the U.S. Supreme Court! And its sole purpose, of course, is to make sure vaccine companies can never be sued, even as their products cause widespread fatalities and neurological harm in children, including autism. (http://www.naturalnews.com/031484_Supreme_Court_vaccine_makers.html)

There’s more to come in all this, too: NaturalNews is currently researching the military ties behind HHS and the medical industry, and we plan to publish a truly eye-opening article very soon that shows why the FDA (among other government agencies) is becoming militarized and conducting so many armed raids against innocents.

Green vegetables

Green vegetables proven to protect against breast cancer

by Jonathan Benson, staff writer

(NaturalNews) Eating more cruciferous vegetables has been shown once again to play an important role in the mitigation of cancer, this time in helping women with breast cancer to live longer. A Chinese study recently presented at the 103rd annual meeting of the American Association for Cancer Research (AACR) revealed that the more cruciferous vegetables women with breast cancer eat, the more likely they are not only to survive their condition, but also to add more years onto their lives.

Based on data collected for the Shanghai Breast Cancer Survival Study, a comprehensive, large-scale study of breast cancer survivors in China, it appears as though consumption patterns of cruciferous vegetables, or vegetables from the cabbage family, are directly proportional to survival rates. The breast cancer-specific mortality rate among women who consumed the most cruciferous vegetables, for instance, was as much as 62 percent less than among those who consumed the least or no cruciferous vegetables.

At the same time, the overall mortality rate among women who consumed cruciferous vegetables on a regular basis was found to be anywhere from 27 to 62 percent less than among women who consumed little or no cruciferous vegetables. And risk of breast cancer recurrence among cruciferous-eating women was as much as 35 percent lower than among non-eating women.

“Commonly consumed cruciferous vegetables in China include turnips, Chinese cabbage (bok choy) and greens, while broccoli and brussels sprouts are the more commonly consumed cruciferous vegetables in the United States and other Western countries,” said Dr. Sara Nechuta, a postdoctoral research fellow at Vanderbilt University and author of the study.

“Second, the amount of intake among Chinese women is much higher than that of U.S. women. The level of bioactive compounds such as isothiocyanates and indoles, proposed to play a role in the anti-cancer effects of cruciferous vegetables, depend on both the amount and type of cruciferous vegetables consumed.”

Cruciferous vegetables contain a variety of anti-cancer nutrients that have been shown in previous studies to both fight cancer cells and prevent them from forming. Sulforaphane, an organosulfur compound found in broccoli, cauliflower, and cabbage, for instance, is a powerful anti-cancer nutrient that also performs a number of beneficial functions in the body (http://www.naturalnews.com).

Isothiocyanates are another anti-cancer nutrient in cruciferous vegetables that activate cancer-fighting genes. Both systemically and genetically, cruciferous vegetables help fight and prevent cancer, and are a great way by which to protect yourself against this pandemic condition.

The Health Ranger interviews neurosurgeon Dr. Russell Blaylock on mandatory vaccine trials, fraudulent vaccine science and vaccine ethics

Untested vaccines causing new wave of polio-like paralysis across India
by PF Louis

(NaturalNews) The Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation is financially backing and publicly endorsing mass polio virus vaccinations in India. In case you didn’t hear him yourself, Bill Gates publicly announced that vaccines could help reduce the world population by 15%.

Gates also proclaimed that every newborn should be registered for vaccinations immediately to assure the goal of 90% of the population getting vaccinated for his “century of the vaccination.”

The Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation program in India was promoted as “The Last Mile: Eradicating polio in India.” The promotional video displayed numbers showing thousands of cases of polio in India decades ago, with the number of cases dropping to 42 by 2010. But it appears that wild polio virus stats have been traded for polio from vaccines and non-polio acute flaccid paralysis (NPAFP).

In India, over 47,000 cases of NPAFP were reported in 2011. The paralysis symptoms of NPAFP are practically the same as what’s attributed to “eradicated” wild virus polio. Apparently, vaccine polio viruses also cause polio paralysis.

Some experts argue that wild virus polio rarely causes paralysis and was declining on its own before the Salk vaccine (http://www.vaclib.org/basic/polio.htm). Ironically, the Salk vaccine contained SV-40 (Simeon virus 40) associated with cancer’s surge since the 1950s.

In neighboring Pakistan during 2011, 136 children came down with polio. Yet 107 of them had been vaccinated multiple times with oral polio vaccines (OPVs). That’s over 78% of those supposedly “immunized” against polio getting that same disease (http://www.immunizationinfo.org/vaccines/polio).

Yet the Gates Foundation wants to vaccinate the world? Hmmm.

Explaining OPVs (oral polio vaccines)
OPVs have been phased out in western countries because of their high incidence of adverse side effects. This type of vaccine was developed by Dr. Albert Sabin and FDA approved in 1963. The viruses in this vaccine are not dead. They are merely “attenuated” but still alive.

What is done with OPVs that are produced but banned in the West? Dump them on third world countries with the humanitarian cover that they are less expensive and easier to administer to large groups simultaneously.

Outbreaks of paralysis using labels other than polio, such as NPAFP (non-polio acute flaccid paralysis), conveniently obscures polio outbreaks among vaccinated populations. Experts outside the vaccination dogma box point out there are other polio type maladies with different names, including NPAFP, Guillain-Barre Syndrome, and others.

Some incidents of vaccine-derived poliovirus (VDPV) from OPVs are reported, which is why OPVs were banned in the West. Those polio episodes can be vaccine-associated polio paralysis (VAPP). VAPP affects only those who had consumed the OPVs.

Yet there are other ways OPVs can spread polio. Family members, friends, even villagers associated with those who took OPVs can be infected from viral shedding.

Viral shedding is common among OPV vaccinated persons and those inoculated with attenuated live viruses. The attenuated viruses become more virulent after residing in the vaccinated person’s body. Upon excretion, water and materials exposed to the urine or stool has been known to spread this now more virulent polio virus to others.

Read more on case histories of OPVs’ causing polio in the USA and Nigeria, both to vaccine recipients and to others from rejuvenated viruses shed by those who were vaccinated: http://www.naturalnews.com/026951_vaccine_virus_vaccination.html.

This “Last Mile” campaign has caused many to walk their last mile. A lot of money has been spent for this campaign, money that could have been used more wisely on improving general basic living health conditions to minimize all diseases.

When millions are spent on vaccinations instead of improving basic sanitation and potable water in poorly developed regions, there is another agenda behind the humanitarian cover story.

The Health Ranger interviews neurosurgeon Dr. Russell Blaylock on mandatory vaccine trials, fraudulent vaccine science and vaccine ethics
by NaturalNews

(NaturalNews) In the following interview, Mike Adamsconducts a video interview with neurosurgeon, researcher and writer Dr. Russell Blaylock – an expert on excitotoxins like aspartame and MSG – about fraudulent vaccine science. Dr. Blaylock reveals the disturbing truth about vaccine trials and ethics, as well as very eye-opening breaking vaccine news.

Health Ranger: Hello and welcome. This is Mike Adams, the Health Ranger for NaturalNews.com with a special video interview with Dr. Russell Blaylock, a neurosurgeon and expert on excitotoxins and extremely well informed on the toxicity on the brain that may be caused by the chemical adjuvants and heavy metals and light metals even found in vaccines. He joins us today by Skype video with a lot of breaking information on this front. Dr. Blaylock, thank you for joining me today.

Dr. Blaylock: Thank you, Mike.

Health Ranger: Well, the vaccine world has gone crazy, Dr. Blaylock, they’re saying we should have mandatory participation in vaccine trials now, no right to opt out. Why, tell us why is that a crazy idea?

Dr. Blaylock: Well, it’s a violation of the Nuremberg medical code, for one, you know this was to protect the public against being experimental animals for governments or vaccine companies. So suddenly we have this violation of Nuremberg protection, saying that you should be forced into a vaccine trial. And if your health is destroyed during testing of this experimental vaccine, then that’s just the price you pay for living in this society. Well that’s not certainly consistent with the founding of this republic, that people are forcibly put into experimental trials.

Health Ranger: Well, right, but let me play devil’s advocate with you here for a second. The vaccine promoters, pushers, propagandists, they say well for every, they say sure a few people will die from the vaccines, they admit that, but they say for every one person that is killed by a vaccine, maybe a million people will be saved, thus it’s for the greater good of society. What’s wrong with that logic, Dr. Blaylock?

Dr. Blaylock: Well, it’s interesting, that’s the very same logic we heard in Nazi Germany, that these actions are social, that we’re doing these things for the greater good. That you have to look at the long view. Sure we’ll kill a couple million people, or we’ll kill a couple thousand people while doing this experiment or that experiment, but it’s for the greater good. So the greater good argument has always led to these totalitarian abuses. And the fact is, most of the damage by vaccines is hidden. We had the vaccine, a VAERS’s reporting system, which is voluntary. But even there, we see that virtually millions of reactions to vaccines reported. And when you hear vaccine proponents talk about it you hear oh, it’s very rare that you have a reaction to a vaccine, which is a complete lie. Even their data which is reporting only 2 to 10 percent of vaccine complications shows that we’re seeing hundreds of thousands of serious complications from a vaccine, and often as in the case of the Gardasil, the serious complications to vaccine exceed the death rate from cervical cancer. So this benefit to harm ratio says that we shouldn’t be doing this at all, that vaccines should be outlawed. You’re harming more people than benefit from the vaccine. And that’s the problem, they can hide this information.

Health Ranger: Right, right they can always explain it away or just bury it or even, they have the vaccine injury compensation program which is this shadow court system that has more power than the U.S. Supreme Court, that pays money out to parents, admitting that yeah your child was damaged even made autistic by vaccines, but here we’re going to pay you this money, it’s hush money, by accepting this settlement you agree not to talk about it. That exists in American today, it’s a hush money pseudo-shadow government court system.

Dr. Blaylock: Well and it’s vaccine injury court. It’s extremely difficult to even appear before the court. I’ve known a number of parents whose children were obviously destroyed by vaccines who never got a hearing. So to actually get any money from the court is very difficult. Like you say, even the results showing that a lot of children are neurologically damaged by the vaccine is hidden. Public never hears about it.

Health Ranger: Well, yeah that’s exactly right. Of course, the mainstream media won’t cover it. People are only going to hear this here in the alternative media. And along those lines, by the way, I want to encourage those watching to check out your website Dr. Blaylock, which is of course RussellBlaylockMD.com did I get that right?

Dr. Blaylock: That’s right.

Health Ranger: Alright, RussellBlaylockMD.com, sign up for his email newsletter there, you could also check out his books on Amazon.com and other booksellers. He’s got books like EXCITOTOXINS: THE TASTE THAT KILLS and what’s your latest book on cancer, what’s the title?

Dr. Blaylock: NATURAL STRATEGIES FOR CANCER PATIENTS

Health Ranger: NATURAL STRATEGIES FOR CANCER PATIENTS. Do you have a book on vaccine toxicity yet?

Dr. Blaylock: Not yet. But I did the introduction to Neil Z. Miller’s latest book THE VACCINE SAFETY MANUAL, it’s a rather long introduction he allowed me to write. So I have that, plus I have a book on autism, which links the vaccines and the mechanism, the molecular mechanism by which it produces autism.

Health Ranger: I would like to invite you by the way right here on camera, we would like to publish your articles. I know that you publish on Newsmax, if you can get permission maybe to allow us to publish on the same day or the following day, I would really like to publish your articles in your name on Natural News. I think it would be a great addition to the website.

Dr. Blaylock: You’re welcome to, appreciate it.

Health Ranger: Well, let’s set it up after this. Just send us your articles and we’ll get them posted for you. People need to see your information, but getting back to the vaccine issue. Let me play devil’s advocate with you again, because you know there’s so many counter arguments to this by the industry. The industry will say ok well, let’s say that some children are killed or maimed or made autistic by the vaccines, but it’s still important to have a vaccine industry because someday there’s going to be a big pandemic and if the vaccine industry doesn’t have this machinery and this investment in its infrastructure it won’t be able to churn out the cure that saves us all from total death and destruction. What about that defense there?

Dr. Blaylock: Well, that’s assuming that we’re not going to have any capability to produce a vaccine unless they’re allowed to make hundreds of millions of dollars of profit, which is certainly not true. If we look at the science of the vaccination process itself, it’s becoming evident that the way they do the immunizations, the vaccine of sticking it into the muscle of your arm and your leg actually suppresses a lot of your immune system, particularly in young children. We found out that in fact it causes the immune system to switch to what we call TH2 type cytokine production, which inhibits immunity. And your major protection against virus, particularly the really virulent, deadly viruses and bacteria is your cellular immunity. Well vaccines don’t stimulate cellular immunity at all; in fact, they suppress it. It’s known if you look on the CDC site they’ll tell you that for instance if a child gets a HIB vaccine for two weeks they’re much more likely to get HIB and to die from it than they would if you didn’t give them the vaccine. We see the same thing with the MMR vaccine, the measles or rubella virus is an immunosuppressant, just like the HIV virus.

Health Ranger: Yeah it’s extraordinary. We see news reports very frequently where they talk about things like a measles outbreak, or a whooping cough outbreak or a chicken pox outbreak. I notice they never tell you the truth, which is that most of those involved in the outbreak were previously vaccinated against the very thing that’s breaking out. It’s like the kids with the measles are the ones who got the measles vaccine. They don’t tell you that.

Dr. Blaylock: Well there’s several important things they don’t tell you. Number one, when they have these so-called outbreaks, death from the outbreak is extremely rare. Most of the kids just get a case of measles and recover, just like millions of us did when I grew up. Now when I grew up there was no measles vaccine. Virtually everybody in my classes got measles, all of us recovered. I don’t remember anybody having a serious complication, but you listen to the proponents today you would think the street was littered with the bodies of dead children. It’s just nonsense. All of us got it, and the difference is when we got the measles, we had life long immunity. And you look on the CDC site now it says, well if you had the measles before 1960, than you don’t need any vaccination. But if you get a vaccination for measles, you’ve gotta keep getting vaccinated every five years or every two years in order to keep your immune system active. But then you don’t get protection, that’s why an outbreak- all of these outbreak cases, the vast majority of the children were fully vaccinated.

Health Ranger: You know, I’m glad you mentioned that because I find that the CDC has learned the tactics of the Department of Homeland Security in using fear to market its own authority. Where DHS says there are terrorists everywhere, so we need more searching, we need more budgets, we need surveillance, the CDC says oh there are deadly viruses everywhere, and outbreaks everywhere, therefore we need more budgets, we need more vaccines, we need more infectious disease surveillance. It’s the same exact tactic as the war-mongering engine, which is Department of Homeland Security. It’s incredible.

Dr. Blaylock: Well the sad thing about it is all these fears are predicated on absolute lies. For instance, if you look at vaccine policy for a six-month-old baby, they’re giving them a diphtheria injection, they’re giving them an injection for tetanus, and then you ask a physician what is the risk of a child in the United States of America developing tetanus if they’re not vaccinated. He doesn’t have a clue. Well, if you look back before there was a tetanus vaccine, the incidence of tetanus in newborn babies was almost nothing. Zero. Most of the tetanus cases were people over the age of 25, and the number of tetanus cases in the United States was infinitesimally small even before there was a vaccine. It gives the impression that before these vaccines existed, these infections were just rampant and massive, but when we look at the data, the historical data on these infections, and that includes all the childhood infections, all of them were falling drastically before there was even a vaccine invented. The vaccine came out on the very end of the fall in these vaccinations. The reason is when you get natural infections, over time the population develops massive immunity to the infection.

Health Ranger: You know, I’m really glad you mentioned that because there is a lot of revisionist history in, for example, polio. You know, the talk about the polio vaccine was this great and wonderful thing, but if you look at the actual history, polio was on the way out before the vaccine even came in. And then you look at Jonas Salk, the famed inventor of polio, and he ran illegal medical experiments using government money on innocent victims who didn’t know they were being experimented on. I mean, it’s madness, and yet no one is really told this history through conventional channels today, astonishing.

Dr. Blaylock: Well if you read the history of the polio epidemic, of course I grew up in the heyday of polio when there was no vaccine. Well, we only had one child in my classroom who developed polio and she just had a minor foot atrophy, leg atrophy. But you didn’t see many children who ended up in an iron lung. When you see these pictures of the days of polio and they show you these rooms full of iron lung, those are referral centers. They took cases from all over the United States because they had the iron lung. You look into regions for instance, you would find that in Haddenburg, Mississippi, oh they may have had five or six cases and you look at another city, they have one or two cases but if you combine them all it looks really impressive. These are referral centers. It’s deception to what they’re doing. They know that most of the people they’re addressing with this information was not alive at that time, that the poliovirus was a mild summer virus that had been present forever before, and that this appearance of paralysis was something that shocked everybody because this was such a mild virus. Interestingly, the period at which this virus suddenly changed its character to produce paralysis came on the foot of the vaccination for diphtheria and pertussis. And that’s when they think the vaccine itself either altered the immunity of these children or it mutated the virus itself to make it paralytic.

Health Ranger: Well what a great marketing scam. The vaccine comes along and actually weakens the immune system, makes people more vulnerable to infection, and there are live viruses inadvertently or maybe intentionally put into the vaccines that get out into the wild. So the vaccines become a vector for introducing infection in some cases, we saw that with Baxter Pharmaceuticals. So then the vaccines become their own self-fulfilling prophecy. There’s infectious disease because the vaccines are weakening the immune system and putting in the infectious disease, and then they use the presence of infectious disease to call for more vaccines. It’s the ultimate circular logic, marketing scam fiasco.

Dr. Blaylock: Well it is, they know that most physicians know almost nothing about vaccines. They don’t know what’s in it, they don’t know anything about the immunology of the vaccination process, the don’t read its literature, but if you get into the science of vaccines, how they work, you’ll find out in fact that they stimulate the immune-suppressant part of the immune system. For instance, Hepatitis B- they had this idea that they were going to vaccinate all the newborn babies against hepatitis B. Well what happens? It prevents the baby’s immune system from converting to a fully functional, cellular mediated type of immunity. And it prolongs it for longer than a year after birth. So that made those infants infinitely more susceptible to hepatitis B, it made them more susceptible to HIB, so that then more kids get HIB infection and so they say oh well now we need more HIB vaccination. Like you say, it just builds on itself.

Health Ranger: It’s incredible, now they’re pushing flu vaccines for pregnant women. I mean that would’ve been considered medically insane just ten years ago, right? I mean when you were in medical training they never would’ve given vaccines like that to a pregnant woman would they?

Dr. Blaylock: Well the thing is, and this is my area of interest, is that when you vaccinate a pregnant woman, particularly during certain periods of pregnancy, you increase the risk of her child later in life having schizophrenia and autism about six fold. And that’s because the vaccine produces immune cytokines, particularly the interleukin 6, which has been shown to cause brain alteration in the baby that leads to later life schizophrenia and autism. Well, this research is very sound and repeated by numerous laboratories, yet here comes along the vaccine people saying we need to start vaccinating pregnant women. I was shocked beyond belief with this very powerful research showing you’re going to massively increase the number of people having schizophrenia and autism.

Health Ranger: But again, this is another case of scientists throwing out the science. I mean, now you go into the pharmacies and they have all these ads, you know, you versus the flu and they show pregnant women and how your baby’s going to be healthy. Hallmark cards puts out these vaccine reminders for new moms to make sure your child has these 18 vaccines. And then you get these stories from parents who say my baby was healthy, I took them in, they were given 18 vaccines all at once, or sometimes 9 or 10 all at once, within hours, it was like lights out. And now they’re autistic. You hear this time and time again and yet the mainstream medical system, the circle the wagons system, just denies it all. Complete denial of any of this, it’s absurd.

Dr. Blaylock: The shocking thing is is that they even had a secret conference, the Simpsonwood Conference, in Georgia, in which they collected their scientists and studies to see if giving these vaccines with mercury in it caused neurodevelopmental problems. It was a secret meeting. And their conclusion was, yes, it is causing neurodevelopmental problems in these children. The more vaccines, the worse the problem. Immediately, they clamped secrecy on it, said we can’t let this report be released because if the parents ever find out what we’ve discovered they’ll be afraid to vaccinate their children. The chairman of the committee said well I’ll be durned if I have my grandchild vaccinated based on this information. But he wouldn’t let the rest of the United States know this, it was just for his own protection.

Health Ranger: That’s the thing, they’re protecting the industry, they’re protecting each other’s salaries, credentials and reputations, you know, forget safety, forget serving the public. It has become a system that exists only to expand its own power and protect its own financial interests. And that is not science, Dr. Blaylock, that is an industry of for profit mythology, quackery and hucksterism, not science.

Dr. Blaylock: No, in fact, I wrote an article that I’ll send to you, which details and quotes these people directly, some of the shocking things they said in this conference. That if parents knew it, they would never have their children vaccinated with these dangerous vaccines. If they knew what the science was, and this is what I hear people like Paul Offit who come forward and pretend that the science is on their side. Well, the science is heavily on our side. We have some of the biggest researchers in these areas on our side. They ignore it. They know that the public is not gonna even know how to grasp hold of the information and read it and understand it- it’s very complex immunology. Paul Offit is an absolute liar when he tells these things. For instance, he says oh, you can take 100,000 vaccines, 10,000 vaccines, it’s perfectly safe. I will give a public challenge to Paul Offit- take 36 vaccinations for hepatitis B and let’s see how you turn out. He won’t do it. Let’s take the CEO of Merck Pharmaceuticals and say let me give you all the vaccine that you recommend all at once, that you say is safe, and let’s see how you turn out. They won’t do it.

Health Ranger: That’s absolutely brilliant, Dr. Blaylock, a public challenge. Let’s have the CEOs of these vaccine companies take their own medicine publically, multiple injections all at once and let’s see what happens.

Dr. Blaylock: I think there should be a law that if the CDC signs it, and the pharmaceutical vaccine manufacturers and people like Paul Offit are going to say these things, by law they should get every vaccine that they recommend.

Health Ranger: I agree, and hey if they ever do that, can you and I administer the vaccines to these people?

Dr. Blaylock: I would love to, but I guarantee you that the CEO of Merck Pharmaceutical, you think he’d take his vaccines?

Health Ranger: I remember these, these groups of scientists who are skeptical about homeopathy, and that’s a whole other topic regardless of what you believe about homeopathy, these people were out in public drinking gallons of homeopathy and saying well, it doesn’t work because we’re not dead. But let’s flip that back on them, let’s say why don’t you publically drink your chemotherapy, why don’t you publically inject yourself with your vaccines? Why don’t you take your own medicine publically and let’s see how many of you are left standing in 30 days.

Dr. Blaylock: Well I think you may remember the case in Maryland not too long ago in which the court ordered 1,000 teenagers to be vaccinated in a courtroom. Got 19 vaccines, which was unbelievable that anybody would order such a thing. It’s assault and battery, it’s a violation of Nuremberg code, well, I wrote an article on it for a paper in Maryland. I said challenge the governor of that state who pressed this to receive all the vaccines, or see if he’s had all the vaccines in his family. A reporter asked him that. You know what his answer was? That’s my private business. He would not admit that he didn’t vaccinate his children and his grandchildren or himself. These people are liars because they won’t take the vaccine themselves. I’ll guarantee you these people aren’t taking the flu vaccine every year. And I guarantee that they didn’t take the H1N1 vaccine that they were hawking, but I worked with a researched in the Czech Republic and we wrote a number of articles which she translated into Czech, and I said that the President of the country after reading these articles refused to take the H1N1 vaccine. The head of their CDC-like organization was promoting it, but she refused to take the vaccine and they ended up destroying millions of dollars of vaccine because nobody would take them.

Health Ranger:You know, we see this reflected throughout the global system of so-called scientists. We see it in the Monsanto cafeterias, they won’t eat genetically modified food. We see the Queen of England not consuming pasteurized milk, having raw milk delivered to her family so they can drink raw, fresh milk. We see also in the UK I think there was a group of global elitists there who ordered up green vaccines, safe vaccines for their children which were single dose vaccines with no preservatives, no adjuvants in them. So we do, we have this denial, even a famous TV medical personality said publically his family isn’t vaccinated but he recommends that you get vaccinated. Time and time again, double standard.

Dr. Blaylock: Exactly, and we need to insist that anyone who makes a public demand that people take their vaccines or promotes it, then we want to know- see their vaccine records. And if not vaccinated, they should be vaccinated publically by vaccines that are off the shelf because they would get distilled water or saline. We want the heads of these companies and the boards of the companies all to be vaccinated with every vaccine they manufacture. And Paul Offit to get at least 36 hepatitis B vaccine all at once and videotape him for the next three weeks.

Health Ranger: I think that’s a great idea, and it can’t be vaccines that Paul Offit arranges himself because there’d be too much fraud going on. We’re talking about off the shelf, go down to CVS pharmacy, go down to Walgreen’s, let’s get off the shelf vaccines. We independently draw the vaccine into the syringe and we inject him 36 times and see what happens.

Dr. Blaylock: Well you see when you look at the aluminum dosage that infants are getting with the hepatitis B vaccine, it was 50 times higher than the EPA safety dose. So that equals to an adult getting about 36 different vaccines with hepatitis B. If that’s equal to what you’re giving to a six month old baby or a year old baby, than Paul Offit let’s give you 36 vaccines of Gardasil or tetanus or one of these other high aluminum vaccines and let’s see how you fare.

Health Ranger: You know what, I want to work with you on this public challenge, Dr. Blaylock. I think it’s brilliant, I think it proves the point and I bet you these so-called vaccine scientists will never allow themselves to be injected with all these vaccines because they know. Of course they know.

Dr. Blaylock: Of course they know, and I guarantee you the same challenge to the scientists in the CDC that are promoting them, I’ll guarantee you the scientists aren’t taking these vaccines.

Health Ranger: Well I took a vial of fluoride to an anti-fluoride town meeting about a decade ago and challenged the dentist there to drink the fluoride and none of them would drink it. They know it’s toxic. It would kill them.

Dr. Blaylock: It’s like oncologists, they did a survey of oncologists. They asked them would you take the same chemotherapeutic treatments that your patients take if you had cancer. 80 percent of them said no. Now that’s more telling than anything else.

Health Ranger: It really is, yeah. We’re way over time on this segment so I gotta wrap it up, but again I could talk to you for hours about this Dr. Blaylock, and I hope you’ll come back and join us again on some future segments.

Dental X-rays tied to brain tumors

Dental X-rays tied to brain tumors

April 16, 2012 by Jonathan

Mon. Apr. 16, 2012
(NaturalHealth365) Is your dentist harming your health? You may be surprised to learn that dental x-rays could be a threat to your life. If you’re concerned about disease prevention – keep reading before your next dental appointment.
Routine dental exams could increase your risk of cancer
The newest and largest study of its kind found that a history of frequent dental X rays, particularly at a young age, is tied to an increased risk of developing meningioma, the most common type of primary brain tumor in the United States. In fact, dental x-rays are among the most common sources of radiation for most people in the U.S.
Exposure to ionized radiation – the type found in x-rays is the largest known risk factor for developing the largely non-malignant meningioma brain tumors. The new study shows that performing frequent dental x-rays presents an unnecessary risk to those that are exposed to them. Keep in mind, if your dentist makes you feel “uncomfortable” about your health concerns (or questions) – get another dentist!
Non-malignant tumors should NOT be taken lightly
While the vast majority of meningiomas are non-malignant, they can grow to be very large and cause a host of problems which include hearing and vision loss, frequent headaches, memory loss, and seizures. This is the most frequently diagnosed brain tumor among adults in the United States and accounts for a third of all primary brain and central nervous system tumors.
In a newly published study, from the American Cancer Society’s journal – Cancer, (the largest of its kind) it was reported that people having “bitewing” x-rays at least yearly were found to have a 40% to 90% greater risk of meningioma. The bitewing x-rays are the one used to check for decay between the teeth and any periodontal disease. The meningioma patients in the study were more then twice as likely to have dental x-rays at some point in their lives as the adults without these tumors.
X-Rays are a recipe for disaster
The American Dental Association (ADA) responded to the study in a written statement, noting the ADA has long called on its members to order dental x-rays only when necessary. To minimize radiation exposure, the groups recommends using protective aprons and collars and use of the fastest film speeds available or a digital x-ray. Does your dentist follow these guidelines? (be careful)
We all know that poor dental health is created by poor eating habits. So why don’t dentists talk to you about nutrition? The simple answer is – they don’t know what to say.
Conventional dentistry (generally speaking) profits from your poor health. They offer toxic radiation, root canals, mercury fillings plus much more! (Is this what you want?)
Let’s not forget the fact that the development of most conditions including dental problems are caused by nutritional deficiencies and toxic overload. Never give up your right to choose your own healthcare path. Find a holisitc dentist (in your area) and discover a better way to acheive optimal health.

cayenne pepper

The amazing healing powers of cayenne pepper (capsicum)
by PF Louis

(NaturalNews) When the famous master herbalist Dr. John Christopher was bothered by stomach ulcer problems as a student, one of his herbal instructors recommended young John drink a solution of cayenne pepper powder in water daily.

At first, Dr. Christopher thought this was a contradiction. How could something so hot help his ulcers? But he bravely took the advice and to his surprise, it did cure his ulcers. Following that experience, Dr. Christopher become a zealous advocate of cayenne for both heart issues and for boosting the efficacy of some of his other herbal formulas.

Christopher has even documented cases where he helped patients come out of heart attacks using only a teaspoon of cayenne powder in a cup of warm water. He isn’t alone; there are several anecdotes of people recovering from serious heart attacks by downing cayenne teas or tinctures. (Sources below)

One of Dr. Christophers interns, Dr. Richard Schulze, ND, MH, took up the cause proclaiming, “If you only master one herb in your life, master cayenne pepper. It’s more powerful than any other.” Both Schulze and Christopher recommend taking a half to full teaspoon of cayenne powder in water two to three times daily as an overall health tonic.

Using cayenne as an herbal medicine or tonic
If you use cayenne, ensure it’s organic. Even organic cayenne is inexpensive and the potential benefits are invaluable. The powder comes from various dried and ground chili peppers, all containing capsaicin (cap-say-sin). The amount of capsaicin is indicated by the cayenne powder’s heat levels, measured in Scoville heat units (SHU) or heat units (HU).

The lowest therapeutic level of SHU or heat units is 35,000. You will often find cayenne powder listed at 40,000, 60,000, 90,000 or 100,000 SHU or heat units. Unless you have a fondness for really hot spicy foods, you may want to start at the 40,000 level. Ultimately, moving up the heat line is recommended for optimum efficacy.

Dr. Christopher liked to use warm purified or distilled water to mix in the fine cayenne powder. One-half to a full cup of water can be used for to mix a half or full teaspoon of cayenne that can be quickly gulped. Allowing the heat to permeate is part of cayenne’s therapeutic value, which a reason why Dr. Schulze disdains cayenne capsules.

Dr. Schulze endorses using a homemade tincture in addition to the cayenne tea. A tincture is easy to carry around and may provide an on-the-spot remedy for heart attack to avoid an ER trip when away from home.

Cayenne’s health benefits
Cayenne powder serves as both a general tonic and a medicine. In addition to potentially helping cease the fatal throes of a heart attack, ingesting cayenne daily also clears clogged arteries while strengthening the whole cardiovascular system and the heart.

It is also a valuable aid for digestion and elimination which can ultimately help heal hemorrhoids and ulcers. Both Dr. Christopher and Dr. Schulze assert that ingesting cayenne powder will boost the potency of the other herbs and supplements you’re taking.

In cayenne studies, scientists have demonstrated an 80% reduction with prostate cancers in mice and in human prostate cancer cells in cultures. The capsaicin in cayenne actually creates accelerated cancer cell apoptosis, or cellular self destruction.

Cayenne pepper contains many beneficial phytochemicals, extremely bio-available vitamins C & E, and minerals, including the vital heart-health mineral magnesium. It cleans the blood, allowing hormonal signals to make their way unimpeded through your system and enhancing the immune system.

You can choose to avoid Big Pharma’s expensive toxic “solutions” for heart and other health issues using all natural solutions like this. Inexpensive, non-toxic cayenne goes well beyond culinary applications.

Unwanted antibiotics in our food supply

Unwanted antibiotics in our food supply

April 10, 2012 by Jonathan

Tue. Apr. 10, 2012

(NaturalHealth365) We, the consumer, can dramatically improve the health of our nation with every food purchase. In fact, it’s our responsibility to question the origin and safety of our food supply. Ultimately, we must NOT tolerate the poisoning of our food with toxic substances of any kind!
Life on this planet is at a crossroad: every single day hundreds of millions of pounds of chemicals are dumped on American soil and an estimated 13.2 million kg. of antibiotics are sold to the poultry and livestock industries, which represents 80 percent of all antibiotic sales. Does this sound healthy to you?
The (legal) poisoning of future generations
In a joint study, researchers at the John Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health and Arizona State University found evidence to suggest that a class of antibiotics banned by the U.S. government for poultry production is still used. The results of the study were published in Environmental Science & Technology. How insane can it get?
The study, conducted by the Bloomberg School’s Center for a Livable Future and Arizona State’s Biodesign Institute looked for drugs and other residues in feather meal, a common additive to chicken, swine, cattle and fish feed. Guess what they found…
The most important drugs found in the study were fluroquinolones, which are broad spectrum antibiotics for the treatment of serious bacteria infections which have become resistant to the older antibiotic drugs. These antibiotics were banned by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration in 2005, yet, it was found in 8 of 12 samples of feather meal in a multi-state study.
Factory-produced food threatens human health
In the United States, antibiotics are introduced into the feed and water of industrially raised poultry to make them grow faster, not to treat any particular disease. Since, the annual per capital human consumption of poultry products is approximately 100 lbs. greater than any other animal or vegetable derived protein source in the U.S. – the American public is in danger of contracting antibiotic resistant infections.
While analyzing the commercial feather meal samples they looked for what additional drugs and chemicals were in the meal. In addition to antimicrobials – they found the pain reliever acetaminophen (the active ingredient in Tylenol, the antihistamine diphenhydramine (the active ingredient in Benadryl) and the antidepressant fluoxetine (the active ingredient in Prozac) along with caffeine in the samples.
Dr. Rolf Halden, PhD, PE, and Co-Director of the Center for Health Information & Research, and Associated Director for the Swette Center for Environmental Biotechnology at Arizona State University and co-author of the study said: “This study reveals yet another pathway of unwanted human exposure to a surprisingly broad spectrum of prescription and over-the-counter drugs.”
Animal protein has deadly ingredients
In the United States, roughly 250 rendering plants located around the country process approximately 100 million pounds of “waste” or inedible parts of slaughtered animals, like bone, blood and feathers – as well as road kill, spoiled grocery meat and euthanized dogs, cats, and horses – every day. This process creates a variety of products including animal feed, protein meal and cosmetics. Why wouldn’t millions of people get sick (and die) from eating heavily-processed, drug and waste contaminated food.
Every time we alter nature we are entering unknown territory. Research reveals that billions of gallons of untreated sewage, industrial waste and toxic runoff water are discharged into our waterways. A partial list of toxins in the air include: insecticides, herbicides, fertilizers and pesticides. Local, organic farming is the ONLY solution.
Feeding chickens’ meal from their own feathers is an illustration of how far we have deviated from earth-friendly living. We are on a clear path of destruction without realizing there is no plan B ready for the population. Be part of the solution – don’t spend your money on commercially-raised, factory farm animal foods.

The powerhouse of cruciferous vegetables

For over 2,000 years, Kale has been cultivated by Europeans and it arrived in the United States by the 17th century. Packed with phytonutrients (the best kind of antioxidants), Kale helps to neutralize harmful free radicals in the body. In fact, scientific research suggests that eating cruciferous vegetable (like Kale) will reduce your risk of certain cancers!

Kale belongs to the same family as cabbage, broccoli, Brussels sprouts, and collards. There are many types of Kale including: green, white, purple, or bluish green. Most of the cruciferous vegetables are loaded with vitamins A, C, and K plus they’re delicious! (I like to lightly steam Kale and eat it up)

The best reason to eat your vegetables

Phytonutrients, found in cruciferous vegetables, help the liver to detoxify our body of unwanted chemicals – everyday. Without phytonutrients – your life is in danger.We are constantly bombarded with poisons in our air, water and food supply. Pesticides, genetically modified foods plus much more act as “endocrine disruptors” – which threaten every aspect of your life – from cellular communication to growth and repair.

A diet rich in fruits and vegetables has been (scientifically) proven to protect human cells from oxidative stress, which is the main reason for aging throughout our body – including the brain. The Human Nutrition Research Center at Tufts University found that carotenoid-rich fruits and vegetables were the best phytonutrient (health protective) foods on the planet.

Keep in mind, a plant-based diet can help you slow down the aging process; boost your immune system and lower your risk for cancer and heart disease!

Listen to your doc could make you very ill!

Study: Following your doctor’s orders could endanger your health

by Jonathan Benson, staff writer

(NaturalNews) Just because your doctor might seem to have all the right answers and always pay close attention to your medical testing and diagnostic needs does not necessarily mean that you are in good hands health-wise. A new study published in the journal Archives of Internal Medicine reveals that patients who report high levels of satisfaction with the services and care provided by their doctors are actually more likely to die than patients who report low levels of satisfaction.

The idea is that individuals have all sorts of varying expectations about medical care depending on their health philosophies and beliefs. Some patients who receive antibiotics from their doctors every time they go in with cold or flu symptoms, for instance, will report high levels of satisfaction because their doctors did something, while doctors who refuse medication because of its uselessness in this same situation could be perceived by some patients as providing a low level of care.

Patient satisfaction versus proper patient care are two completely different things that, based on the study’s findings, appear to have an inverse relationship. Based on an assessment of data from the national Medical Expenditure Panel Survey (MEPS), patients who report the highest level of satisfaction with their doctors are 26 percent more likely to die overall compared to those who report the lowest levels of satisfaction.

Oddly enough, when patients with the poorest overall health are excluded from the statistics, the death rate percentage jumps to 44 percent. Even after adjusting the data to account for those most likely to throw off the numbers, satisfied patients are significantly more likely to die than non-satisfied patients, presumably because of over-testing, false diagnoses, drug poisoning, and other potentially harmful factors that instill false confidence in many patients that their health is being properly handled.

According to Yves Smith over at Naked Capitalism, citing research by Maggie Mahar in her book Money Driven Medicine, patients typically prefer that their doctors do more, rather than less, even when doing less actually benefits them. Getting too many mammograms, for instance, which makes many women feel empowered against breast cancer, has actually been shown to cause it (http://www.naturalnews.com/027641_mammograms_breast_cancer.html).

The same is true for pharmaceutical drugs, which are a go-to for many doctors whenever their patients report even the slightest pains or discomforts. Many patients report higher satisfaction from doctors who simply dispense them pills, as opposed to doctors that tell them to get more exercise and eat better. And this, of course, illustrates the problem with patient satisfaction surveys, and points to why “satisfied” patients end up dying more often than their “unsatisfied” counterparts.

Drug Companies Routinely Bury Studies

Drug Companies Routinely Bury Studies Showing Their Drugs Don’t Work

by Mike Adams, the Health Ranger, NaturalNews Editor

(NaturalNews) More than 30 percent of studies conducted on antidepressant drugs go unpublished, apparently because they fail to show that the drug works as advertised, according to a new study published in the New England Journal of Medicine.

In addition, published studies often interpret the data as more favorable toward the drug than it actually is.

“Not only were positive results more likely to be published, but studies that were not positive, in our opinion, were often published in a way that conveyed a positive outcome,” the researchers wrote.

Although the FDA requires that pharmaceutical companies provide the results of all studies conducted on a new drug before it receives approval, there is no requirement that those studies be published where doctors, health researchers and the public can read them. A team of researchers from institutions including the Oregon Health and Science University, the Portland Veterans Affairs Medical Center, Kent State University and the University of California at Riverside compared the results of studies reported in the FDA database with whether and how those studies were reported in published literature.

“It tells you where they placed their bets before they saw the data,” lead researcher Erick Turner said.

The researchers examined 74 studies conducted on 12 antidepressants between 1981 and 2004, involving a total of 12,564 patients. Only 38 of these studies (51 percent) produced favorable results for the drugs being tested. All but one of those studies – or 94 percent – were published.

In contrast, 22 of the 36 studies that failed to show favorable results (61 percent) went unpublished. Of the 14 studies published, only three interpreted the data unfavorably. The other 11 studies, in contrast with FDA interpretations of the same data, cast the drugs as more effective than they actually were.

For example, of the three studies conducted on Glaxo SmithKline’s Wellbutrin, only the one showing positive results was published. Of five studies conducted on Pfizer’s Zoloft, the one showing positive results was published; the one with questionable results was spun as if the drug were effective, and the three with unfavorable results were never published.

According to the researchers, the publication bias inflated the reported effectiveness of the anti-depressant drugs by an average of 32 percent. The actual amount varied from a low of 11 percent for Glaxo SmithKline’s Paxil to a high of 69 percent for Bristol-Myers-Squibb’s Serzone.

Turner said that this exaggeration of a drug’s effectiveness can lead doctors to prescribe it in borderline cases where it might not be appropriate.

“Selective publication can lead doctors to make inappropriate prescribing decisions that may not be in the best interest of their patients and, thus, the public health,” the researchers wrote.

The researchers said that the publication bias did not necessarily arise from drug companies actively concealing data. One explanation might be that researchers find negative results uninteresting, and do not go to the effort of writing them up.

“There’s an expectation that if you get a positive result, that’s what you’re supposed to do, and if you get a negative result you have failed,” Turner said. “The first impulse is to say, ‘I was wrong. Maybe I should move on to something more interesting.’”

The bias could just as easily come from medical journals being more interested in studies with positive results, Turner said, and not from the researchers at all.

Newsweek columnist Sharon Begley expressed skepticism with this view.

“I think he’s being too kind,” Begley said. “With the proliferation of journals, virtually anything can get published somewhere – maybe not in the New England Journal of Medicine, but in some third-tier rag, which would still count as ‘published.’”

Regardless of the reasons behind it, it is widely acknowledged that publication bias has far-reaching ramifications. It skews the results of meta-analyses, in which researchers compile the results of many published studies to get a better picture of how effective a drug or other therapy is. In extreme cases, it can create a totally false impression: Because studies are typically conducted within a 5 percent confidence interval, it is expected that one in 20 of those studies will show a false result simply due to random variation. If only that study is published and the 19 studies showing no results are never seen, this conveys the opposite impression of what the research actually found.

While the current study is the most thorough to date examining publication bias in the drug industry, health professionals have long known that this bias is a problem. In 2004, the state of New York sued Glaxo SmithKline for intentionally concealing the results of studies on Paxil in order to make it appear that the drug was more effective on children and adolescents. The company also sought to conceal evidence of dangerous side effects, the lawsuit alleged, such as an increased incidence of suicidal tendencies.

While that lawsuit was eventually settled, at least 12 jury trials are scheduled for 2008 that accuse Glaxo SmithKline of hiding suicidal side effects in youths.

As part of the 2004 settlement, Glaxo SmithKline agreed to post the results of all its drug trials on the Internet, and other major companies followed suit. In response to the New England Journal of Medicine study, spokespeople for several drug companies pointed to this practice as evidence that the system has been reformed.

But Turner says that posting results online is not the same as publishing them in the medical literature. He doesn’t know a single doctor, he said, who regularly consults the companies’ online databases.

“We are taught that the medical literature is the Holy Grail,” he said.

Cancer industry total fraud exposed

Cancer industry total fraud exposed: Nearly all ‘scientific’ studies fail to be replicated

by Jonathan Benson, staff writer

(NaturalNews) The vast majority of so-called scientific studies focused on cancer research are inaccurate and potentially fraudulent, suggests a new review published in the journal Nature. A shocking 88 percent of 53 “landmark” studies on cancer that have been published in reputable journals over the years cannot be reproduced, according to the review, which means that their conclusions are patently false.

C. Glenn Begley, a former head of global cancer research at drug giant Amgen and author of the review, was unable to replicate the findings of 47 of the 53 studies he examined. It appears as though researchers are simply fabricating findings that will garner attention and headlines rather than publishing what they actually discover, which helps them to maintain a steady stream of grant funding but deceives the public.

“These are the studies the pharmaceutical industry relies on to identify new targets for drug development,” said Begley about the false studies. “But if you’re going to place a $1 million or $2 million or $5 million bet on an observation, you need to be sure it’s true. As we tried to reproduce these papers we became convinced you can’t take anything at face value.”

Begley says he cannot publish the names of the studies whose findings are false. But since it is now apparent that the vast majority of them are invalid, it only follows that the vast majority of modern approaches to cancer treatment are also invalid.

Back in 2009, researchers from the University of Michigan’s Comprehensive Cancer Center also published an analysis that revealed many popular cancer studies to be false. As can be expected, one of the primary causes of false results was determined to be conflicts of interest that tended to favor “findings” that worked out best for drug companies rather than for the people (http://www.naturalnews.com/026314_cancer_research_studies.html).

Published research for other conditions also found to be invalid
The Nature study also confirms what was previously uncovered by Dr. George Robertson from Dalhousie University, who found the same inconsistencies in published research studies on Parkinson’s disease and other neurodegenerative disorders. Just like with cancer, it appears that the foundation upon which drugs for these conditions have been developed is fallacious as a result of phony research.

And scientists working for drug giant Bayer have run into similar problems in other areas as well, which they outlined in a 2011 paper entitled Believe it or not. According to their findings, much of the published data with which they were expected to develop new drugs could not be reproduced, either.

“The scientific community assumes that the claims in a preclinical study can be taken at face value,” add Begley and his colleague Dr. Lee Ellis in their review. This published research also assumes that “the main message of [papers] can be relied on [...] Unfortunately, this is not always the case.”

Ironically, the only thing all these scientists have been able to successfully reproduce over the years is research showing that much of modern science is unsound. Whether it is funded by drug companies or by agenda-driven federal grants, the so-called “gold standard” of science has been debunked as a greed-driven myth.
