The big question: Does modern medicine help society at all?

In all, pharmaceuticals do not save lives. They destroy lives while making huge profits for drug companies

This is sheer idiocy offered by the worst kind of idiots. Tell someone who survived drug resistant staph, thanks to Vancomycin, that drug companies destroy lives. I have a relative who is alive today thanks to Gleevec. Vaccinations have done nothing to save lives? Do you idiots remember polio and what it did to a healthy body? Have you ever seen a child suffering from Pertussis? How many thousands are spared from death by malaria each year because they have access to drugs like Fansidar, Lariam and Malarone?

I read this crap and wonder what kind of moron would post such stupidity here and who would agree with it. It's absolutely mind-boggling. Where do you think the new drugs to treat bacterial infections that don't respond to current classes of drugs will come from...the health food and supplement industry? Who will save us from drug resistant TB......practitioners of homeopathy? Thank goodness our fate isn't in the hands of the clueless.....yet.

In a recent study “Oregano Oil” out performed Vancomycin in a real study, when Vancomycin failed, “Oregano Oil” worked. And for $35 you can purchase Allimax or Allimed and it KILLS MRSA where all other drugs fail, and it’s been proven, it’s made from Garlic and has a very high Allicin content.

And by the way, there are almost no side effects to Oregano Oil, which is probably, pound for pound one of the strongest antibiotics on the planet, proven in studies to surpass Vancomycin.

Don’t ask me to prove it unless when I do you are willing to admit you were wrong and that the Drug Companies are covering up cheap, safe, and effective cures ...

Coconut Oil is in large part what helped me become Morgellons free at the very end, that and OptiMSM (MSM) not MMS ...

Love Coconut Oil ... Had it in my oatmeal in the morning just today (like aways)

If you are ever curious about the efficiency of the FDA, just 30 minutes worth of research will show you that they are a 99.99% worthless agency who supports corporations not science.

Although there is a combined effect of the many compounds found in oregano oil, its effectiveness is largely attributed to a primary ingredient, the phenol carvacrol. When lab tested, carvacrol was found to be one of the most potent antibiotics known to science. In tests done at Georgetown University, it was found to be more effective than penicillin, streptomycin and even vancomycin (considered to be the strongest of all antibiotics). Unlike pharmaceutical antibiotics, oregano oil does not create resistant strains of mutant bacteria. It is able to naturally and effectively eliminate any pathogen that is unfortunate enough to cross its path.

Without cancer screening, for example, breast cancer rates would plummet (because screening causes cancer).

OMG, they expect me to take anything they say seriously after I read some stupid crap like this?

In fact, a new study just presented at the annual meeting of the Radiological Society of North America (RSNA), concludes the low-dose radiation from annual mammography screening significantly increases breast cancer risk in women with a genetic or familial predisposition to breast cancer. This is particularly worrisome because women who are at high risk for breast cancer are regularly pushed to start mammograms at a younger age — as early as 25 — and that means they are exposed to more radiation from mammography earlier and for more years than women who don’t have breast cancer in their family trees.

Yeah, right. The next time you have drug resistant MRSA, reach for the oregano oil instead of the Vancomycin. Let me know how that works out for ya. If you ever get drug resistant TB, whooping cough or malaria be sure and use only oregano oil to treat it....... Farewell and adieu unto you Spanish ladies, Farewell and adieu to you ladies of Spain....

When someone you know comes down with chronic myeloid leukemia, be sure and load them up on whatever natural idiocy the internet tells you cures it. I know they'll appreciate it.

I thought you Opused yourself from FR and that we were finally spared from your Luddite, chemicalphobe and anti-industry rantings. I knew it was too good to be true.

It was actually Intermittent claudication. I had two stents put in at my iliac artery. Lost 20 lbs and started walking 2 or 3 miles a day. And that pretty well fixed the pain in my legs.

Not exactly.

www.rsna.org

Mammography May Increase Breast Cancer Risk in Some High-Risk Women

"Our findings suggest that low-dose radiation increases breast cancer risk among these young high-risk women, and a careful approach is warranted," Dr. Jansen-van der Weide said.

She noted that this analysis is based on a small study sample and should be interpreted with caution. Dr. Jansen-van der Weide also pointed out that these results apply only to specific high-risk groups of women.

Women at average risk were not assessed in this study. In general, early detection with mammography and prompt treatment can significantly improve a woman's chances of survival. More than 90 percent of women whose breast cancer is found in an early stage will survive. For young, high-risk women and their doctors, it is important to weigh the benefits against any potential risk when making a decision about annual breast cancer screening with mammography.

Survive only means be "alive 5 years later" you know that right?

If you really want to survive get your PH up, oxygen level up, amino acids, magnesium, Vitamin D, and direct sunlight with no sun block, one hour a day, build up slowly at first until your color is good.

Thanks for the response and I’m glad it worked for you. Been trying to walk as much as possible, constrained by a blown disc between L4-L5 verts-—mucho pain down right leg, in addition to the PAD symptoms.

Considering some sort of arterial surgery.

“But curiously, as soon as niacin started to show a real benefit over Zetia, researchers cancelled the study. The premature ending of the clinical trial stopped the process by which even more useful information about the benefits of niacin might have been learned.”

Prove it! Prove that they did not do continued studies.
