As far as I’m concerned, the final nail in the genetic-testing coffin was struck when GSK (GlaxcoSmithKline) announced “GSK Buys $300 Million Stake in 23andMe for Drug Research Data.” Yes, that’s right, GSK is buying into 23andMe so it can collect your data to develop new drugs and identify if you should be entered into a particular […]
Continue reading >I love this title “Thinking of a Fluoroquinolone? Think Again”. It’s a Medscape Commentary that warns people about taking this very dangerous drug. It’s written by a medical officer with the Division of Healthcare Quality Promotion at the CDC. Look at the statistics: “Fluoroquinolones are the third most commonly prescribed outpatient antibiotic class in the […]
Continue reading >Three Medscape articles in a row caught my eye. I could write a blog on each one but collectively they emphasize the continued failure of modern medicine to recognize the horrendous epidemic of magnesium deficiency.

I’m reading Dr. Jason Fung’s Diabetes Code right now and along comes a Medscape Commentary called “’Really Good’ New Guidelines for T2 Diabetes”? But there is nothing new, they are still all about drugs. […]

Of course, in my magnesium world any sort of calcification means magnesium deficiency and the treatment is saturation levels of magnesium to overcome the deficiency. He mentions magnesium in the article but unfortunately most health experts suffer under […]
Continue reading >Grrrrrr. Medscape happily published the following article “No Scientific Proof That Multivitamins Promote Heart Health.” And I said a little prayer for all the people who will read this nonsense and stop taking their multivitamins and forfeit another piece of their health. You may know that I’m not that keen on most multivitamins because they are […]
Continue reading >I’m happy that more and more people are using natural supplements but sometimes the hype goes too far. The hype is especially true for MLM companies where proselytizing members help ratchet up the placebo effect to incredible heights. One MLM product, Protandim has crossed my path many times – the most recent, a fanatic member […]
Continue reading >There is nothing new in this headline except the number of prescriptions to seniors has increased. “People in their silver years are golden geese to Big Pharma: More than half are on at least 5 prescriptions, some more than 20.” Thirty years ago I used a cartoon called Drug Free America in my public lectures.

Continue reading >Medscape announced their conclusion from a recent clinical investigation finding that “NSAIDs Plus Anticoagulants a Dangerous Combination” leading to major bleeding and stroke.
