'The entire framework of orthodox contemporary medicine is on quicksand and as it sinks it is literally pulling down with it millions of humans into misery and death. We have known for a decade, thanks to the work of Dr. Gary Null, Dr. Carolyn Dean and Dr. Barbara Starfield, that even when properly prescribed, pharmaceutical medications are killing over 100,000 Americans each and every year. Now we know why!
Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA) Dr. Barbara Starfield of the Johns Hopkins School of Medicine ALL THESE ARE DEATHS PER YEAR: 12,000 —– unnecessary surgery 7,000 —– medication errors in hospitals 20,000 —– other errors in hospitals 80,000 —– infections in hospitals 106,000 —– non-error, negative effects of drugs'

'Most antidepressants cause a change in the electrical pulse of the heart, which changes the rhythm of the heart beat. It’s called an extended QT interval—and it can result in sudden death with no warning of any kind: BMJ study.
The antidepressant citalopram—brand names Celexa and Cipramil—has joined a growing list of drugs that can cause sudden death by stopping the heart. The study, published in the BMJ[1], found that the drug causes lengthening in the QT interval, a part of the heart beat cycle.
Several drugs are noted for this issue. The most famous is methadone, noted for sudden death in some individuals, especially when dosage is increased too rapidly. There are no symptoms indicating a risk. A perfectly normal person will literally drop dead.'

'Several recent studies have confirmed what Ayurvedic practitioners have known for thousands of years: That a special Ayurvedic herb increases memory and cognition, and may well treat dementia and Alzheimer's disease. Researchers from the Medical College of Thailand's Khon Kaen University conducted a double-blind, placebo-controlled and randomized clinical study with 60 elderly adult volunteers with an average age of 63 years old. The researchers gave the adults either a placebo or an Ayurvedic herbal medicine called Brahmi – botanical name Bacopa monnieri – for three months.'

'Many state it's not what honey is good for, but what isn't it good for. Honey has been used medically for hundreds of years, but for no reasons other than profit, mainstream medicine has sought to develop man-made antibiotics which have only led to antibiotic resistance and other diseases. New research has shown the honey kills every type of bacteria scientists have thrown at it, including the antibiotic-resistant "superbugs" plaguing hospitals and killing patients around the world.'

'Health Secrets) Years ago I read a study about the healing power of love which I then saw repeated in several locations. I have not been able to find this study, but the principle is sound, so even if I misquote it a little, the point will not be lost. The study was an attempt to induce heart disease in rabbits by feeding them high cholesterol food. Various groups of rabbits in different areas of the country were used and various people were hired to feed the rabbits the artificially altered food.'

This is my last post for TreeHugger and I'd like to thank everyone who has read my work and tried the recipes over the years.'
