Health news from a parallel universe (satire) Mike Adams, the Health Ranger See article keywords and concepts

Not anymore: Twisted science combined with a pro-Pharma agenda and limitless influence on the mainstream media has turned the popular press into a nutrient attack dog, and ominous stories about the extreme dangers of taking vitamins or supplements are now published at regular intervals (just to remind the citizens to keep taking drugs, of course). The insanity of Allopathia is actually our own.

The secret history of Big Pharma's role in creating and marketing heroin, LSD, meth, Ecstasy and speed Mike Adams, the Health Ranger See article keywords and concepts

The only difference is that Big Pharma has been so successful at dealing drugs that it has enough funds to buy off Congress, the Food and Drug Administration and practically the entire psychiatric industry (not to mention medical schools and mainstream media outlets). Today, more than 40 percent of the U.S. population ingests FDA-approved synthetic chemicals manufactured and marketed by drug companies. Drug companies think this number is too low. Their goal is to have 100 percent of the U.S. population taking not just one drug per day, but multiple drugs every day, for life.

Alli weight loss drug has disgusting side effects and may block fat-soluble vitamins Mike Adams, the Health Ranger See article keywords and concepts

Most of the mainstream media stories you'll hear about this drug will have an obvious pro-drug slant. That's because most of the mainstream media is heavily influenced by pharmaceutical advertising money. I'm not. I don't care if you take Alli or not. Just don't sit on my couch if you do.

Pentagon hit by flying grilled cheese sandwich, video frames show Mike Adams, the Health Ranger See article keywords and concepts

According to almost every reporter in the mainstream media, a Boeing 757 jet, when photographed, looks exactly like an indistinguishable blur. Let's face it: The video frames released by the Pentagon make ghost and UFO photos look downright crisp. And yet, somehow, out of this unrecognizable blur, mainstream media stories are claiming they clearly show a Boeing 757 jet and that all 9-11 conspiracy theories are now dispelled. They must not be looking at the same video frames I'm looking at, which are the ones released by the FBI (click here to see photos).

Outrage! Preschoolers used as guinea pigs in psychotropic drug tests Mike Adams, the Health Ranger See article keywords and concepts

Why isn't the mainstream media giving this front-page coverage? Why aren't lawmakers demanding an end to the chemical abuse of our children? Why isn't the FDA halting these trials on toddlers out of plain decency? You already know the answer: Because they're all making money from this chemical assault on our nation's children. The doctors, hospitals, drug companies, psychiatrists and mainstream media all profit handsomely from the sales of mind-altering drugs to children.

Empower yourself in 3 minutes a day: An introduction to indy media, NewsTarget.com and the online information revolution Mike Adams, the Health Ranger See article keywords and concepts

Challenging the distortions Here on the NewsTarget Network, we challenge the distortions of the mainstream media. When the mainstream media prints a story that claims, "Vitamins will kill you!" we explain not only why they won't, but also who's behind the distortion and why they want to convince everyone to live in a state of chronic malnutrition (hint: It sells more prescription drugs).

The discovery of DNA variability, holographic blueprints and the symphony of life Mike Adams, the Health Ranger See article keywords and concepts

It's as if every newly discovered fact unveils the existence of ten new questions we never knew existed. The mainstream media, in its usual limited view, is reporting this discovery as a breakthrough that will help scientists develop new drugs to treat disease. Every "Eureka!" moment having anything to do with the genetic code seems to lead the mainstream media to the same advertiser-pleasing conclusion, but they haven't even begun to realize the big story here. The real news in this discovery, you see, has nothing to do with pharmaceuticals or even medical science.

Pharmaceutical television advertising is a grand hoax Mike Adams, the Health Ranger See article keywords and concepts

Pharmaceutical medicine, as practiced today, is a grand medical hoax involving the mainstream media, the FDA, drug companies, medical journals, medical schools and even M.D.s. They've all quietly agreed to do whatever it takes to maximize profits at the expense of public health, regardless of the science or the ethics involved. So-called "evidence-based medicine" has become modern-day quackery. Statin drugs, for example, have now been proven to offer absolutely no medical benefit whatsoever to women, with zero reduction in the risk of heart attacks or strokes.

You'll learn why 29 states are suing drug companies for fraud, how the FDA ordered the burning of recipe books to protect the profits of chemical companies, why the FDA conducted armed raids on vitamin companies, health food stores and even a church, and how the mainstream media operates as a willing co-conspirator by promoting dangerous drugs while accepting hundreds of millions of dollars in Big Pharma ad money every year.

Medical tyranny in Texas turns teenage girls into HPV vaccination profit centers (opinion) Mike Adams, the Health Ranger See article keywords and concepts

The entire industry, including drug companies, doctors, medical journals and the mainstream media, is twisting the facts to create the illusion that these vaccines are both safe and effective when, in reality, they are probably neither. Nor are they necessary. Cervical cancer is prevented in a hundred other ways, including adequate sunlight exposure and vitamin D consumption, supplementation with probiotics, adequate intake of selenium and zinc, increased consumption of trace minerals and iodine, regular physical exercise and many other safe, natural, non-patented strategies.

Drug companies also own the mainstream media by propping up television networks, cable networks, newspapers, magazines and websites with literally billions of dollars in advertising. On top of that, drug companies heavily influence the medical journals and medical schools, and have effectively limited the entire conventional medical industry to a "drugs and surgery" approach to health, practically censoring nutritional knowledge out of existence. Given this environment, is anyone supposed to believe we will see anything resembling honest debate or genuine science about this HPV vaccine?

The big vitamin scare: American Medical Association claims vitamins may kill you (opinion) Mike Adams, the Health Ranger See article keywords and concepts

But the medical journals and the mainstream media will report is at a "one percent increase." You see how the game is played? Here's the con: All statistics on the dangers of prescription drugs are reported as absolute risk to make the numbers seem smaller (and make drugs seem safe). All statistics on the dangers of synthetic vitamins are reported as relative risk to make the numbers seem larger (and vitamins seem dangerous). And this is how conventional medicine lies with statistics.

Unraveling the lies about the antioxidant study on vitamins E and C Mike Adams, the Health Ranger See article keywords and concepts

Despite these encouraging findings about the positive impact of antioxidants on health, nearly all the headlines in the mainstream media today are proclaiming vitamins E and C to be useless. In classic doublespeak, one press release blares, "Vitamin C and Other Antioxidant Vitamins Provide No Protection from Cardiovascular Events." This particular distortion comes from the drug-touting Brigham and Women's Hospital (BWH), an affiliate of Harvard Medical School. BWH goes on to state, "researchers...

Pushing the pro-Pharma propaganda Sadly, the mainstream media will buy this distortion, reprint it, and thereby spread disinformation to the public which is already half scared of vitamins thanks to all the other fear tactics being pushed by today's oppressive medical system. But let's get down to reality here for a moment, shall we? Drugs have no natural place in the human body, period. There is no disease caused by a deficiency of pharmaceuticals, and most of the drugs being marketed today are pushed under the most ridiculous advertising claims and distorted medical "science.

Animals are smarter than humans when it comes to feeding their children (opinion) Mike Adams, the Health Ranger See article keywords and concepts

I guess it helps that they influence the government regulators and practically own the mainstream media. They also buy all the prime shelf space at grocery stores, sponsor the big sporting events, and have successfully infiltrated schools and hospitals with junk food restaurants and vending machines. Heck, there's still a McDonald's restaurant in the Cleveland Clinic where they perform heart surgery! If the birds and the bees have figured out how to raise healthy offspring, you'd think that humans might have the brain power to raise their own healthy children, too. And some parents are.

Are antidepressant drugs an accomplice in the Virginia Tech shootings? (opinion) Mike Adams, the Health Ranger See article keywords and concepts

And yet nobody in the mainstream media seems to be reporting about the drugs. Don't you find it curious that when 100,000+ Americans are killed in their homes and beds each year, dying from heart attacks and strokes caused by pharmaceuticals, there's virtually no news coverage, but when mind-altering drugs cause a student to pick up guns and blow away 32 classmates, it's suddenly front-page news everywhere? The reason is because there's violence involved, and violence gets ratings for news organizations.

Hawaiian macadamia nut farmers face economic devastation due to false labeling of imported mac nuts as "Hawaiian" Mike Adams, the Health Ranger See article keywords and concepts

This is one of those stories you'll probably never hear in the mainstream media. The Hawaii press isn't interesting in printing anything strongly negative about the macadamia nut industry for obvious reasons. Plus, the big business macadamia nut processors are highly influential in the economic and political circles in Hawaii. At the same time, Hawaii doesn't really want to talk about its meth problem because the truth about Hawaii's unprecedented drug abuse problem scares away tourists.

Darth Vader, the FDA, and the Empire of Modern Medicine (opinion) Mike Adams, the Health Ranger See article keywords and concepts

The FDA, drug companies and mainstream media routinely invent scare stories about vitamins and nutritional supplements, then publicize them in order to scare consumers away from nutritional therapies (and herd them into profitable drug treatments). 7) The FDA currently "negotiates" with drug companies over drug safety warning labels, refusing to do its job of protecting the public from dangerous or deadly drugs. Case in point: an FDA advisory panel actually voted to put Vioxx back on the market after it killed more than 50,000 Americans and its own manufacturer voluntarily recalled the drug.

U.S. Senators financially enslave Americans as Indentured Servants to Big Pharma Mike Adams, the Health Ranger See article keywords and concepts

REPPED: The facts found in the report are almost as astonishing as the source of the report itself: USA Today, a mainstream media giant in the United States, has revealed the apparent financial conflict of interest by U.S. Senators who voted against the infamous S.1082 reimportation amendment. That amendment would have ended Big Pharma's monopoly over U.S. consumers and ultimately saved American citizens, businesses and governments tens of millions of dollars by allowing them to import medicines from other nations with approved safety records (such as Canada or Japan).

The false gods of scientific medicine revealed: It's a cult, not a science Mike Adams, the Health Ranger See article keywords and concepts

And its proponents and practitioners are not scientists, but rather part of the congregation of the Church of Medical Truth. mainstream media stories that parrot the cult-like beliefs of conventional medicine are the singing of the church choir, and the altar boys getting sodomized in the back room by high priests are like the public being chemically assaulted by pharmaceuticals. (A kind of "medical violence" perpetrated against the general public.) This is not intended to say anything bad about churches. I believe in Freedom of Religion just as I do Freedom of Speech.

Incessant disease mongering turns Americans into profit-generating guinea pigs for Big Pharma (opinion) Mike Adams, the Health Ranger See article keywords and concepts

If a so-called "disease" can be swallowed by the gullible mainstream media, and believed by brainwashed doctors and consumers, then drug sales will automatically follow. Getting people to believe there's something wrong with them, of course, is amazingly easy. Why? Because everybody's life is in turmoil at one time or another. There's not a person alive who doesn't feel pressure, or anxiety, or challenges, or failures sooner or later. Drug companies want you to believe those feelings are diseases when, in reality, they're just part of life.

China executes top FDA official while the U.S. does nothing to counter corruption Mike Adams, the Health Ranger See article keywords and concepts

It's all hogwash, of course, and the mainstream media is part of the problem because it refuses to print the truth about the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. In an honest society with a truly free press, the Washington Post should be calling for a massive FDA investigation and prosecution effort. After all, investigating a corrupt agency responsible for killing 100,000 Americans each year (which is a conservative estimate of the number of Americans killed each year by FDA-approved prescription drugs) should obviously be a very high priority for a free press. It's the story of the decade.

NewsTarget Citizen Journalism project a big success; new writers welcomed to join Mike Adams, the Health Ranger See article keywords and concepts

Honest news from real people Here at NewsTarget, we believe that independent writers and authors are now the only sources for getting honest, accurate information about what's happening in our world today. mainstream media sources are hopelessly influenced by politics and corporate interests, and newsstand magazines, newspapers and cable news shows have devolved into little more than sensationalized shouting matches and commercially-influenced propaganda. The internet is now the place that intelligent people go to get their information.

Unraveling the lies about the antioxidant study on vitamins E and C Mike Adams, the Health Ranger See article keywords and concepts

I'm not sure if this strategy is brilliant or idiotic: It's brilliant because the mainstream media swallows the story hook, line and sinker (journalists aren't very skeptical anymore...). It's idiotic because it's based on a logic gap so large you could drive a circus convoy through it. If you're going to test the effectiveness of something, it only makes sense that you have to exclude the results of those people who didn't take it. Notice that with drug studies, researchers routinely exclude those who did not comply with taking the drug.

The quackery of modern medicine (opinion) Mike Adams, the Health Ranger See article keywords and concepts

So drug companies continue their campaigns of influence, corruption, buying off the mainstream media and controlling the curricula at medical schools. The American Medical Association, which has been suppressing alternative medicine for literally decades, is perhaps the most visible defender of the drugs-and-surgery approach to sick care, but even the AMA is now increasingly being seen as hopelessly irrelevant and outdated. The future of health will not be found in chemotherapy, pharmaceuticals or unjustified surgical procedures.

Study "Disproving" Mercury-Autism Link Published in Journal with Financial Ties to Vaccine Manufacturers Mike Adams, the Health Ranger See article keywords and concepts

Junk science and faulty conclusions Aside from these obvious and worrisome conflicts of interest, the conclusions being made about autism and vaccines in the mainstream media are simply not supported by the study. The (distorted) logic we're hearing goes like this: Yes, vaccines used to contain mercury. And yes, all those little kids were injected with mercury. And yes, autism rates skyrocketed. But then when the mercury was taken out of the vaccines, the autism rates didn't come back down. Therefore, the logic goes, vaccines are safe!

Join the Ron Paul Revolution to Restore Health Freedom to America Mike Adams, the Health Ranger See article keywords and concepts

While the mainstream media continues to attack Paul and make it look like he doesn't stand a chance, Paul has actually become the top choice among thinking people across America. That's why the Ron Paul revolution is now being called, "The Revolution of the Intelligent." But why Ron Paul in the first place? Isn't he a Republican? Like you, I despise most Republicans. They're mostly corrupt, criminal-minded rich fat cats who are destroying our freedoms and driving this country into unprecedented debt.

He also doesn't have the support of the mainstream media -- the dishonest news outlets owned by Big Business! That's why Ron Paul needs your support. He needs financial support from individuals like you and me. We're the ones who have donated over $18 million to Ron Paul already, and we'll donate even more to help this candidate win. Donate to Ron Paul right now at www.RonPaul2008.com This is a way that you can help take back our country from the criminals, crooks and corrupt politicians who have stolen our future.
