The
Health Freedom Expo - Long Beach...
Friday, February 22nd, 2008
- Over 10,000 people are expected,
this year, to gather at the
Long Beach, California 2008 Health Freedom Expo. 10,001 if you count
me - for I'll certainly be there. This year there is a huge cast of both
health care, and media stars. Every day is a big day for speakers.
Go
here for the schedule. I'll see you there.
Court Demands Quackbusters Pay $491k - Two Pay,
One Doesn't ...
Wednesday,
February 20th, 2008 - Way back in the year 2001, when Quackbusters
Stephen Barrett, Terry Polevoy, and their attorney Christopher Grell decided to
file their cockamamie lawsuit (Barrett v. Clark) in Oakland, CA Superior Court,
they brandished it on the internet as their crowning activity. Little did
they know, then, that it would NOT be just one more stumbling, bumbling,
fumbling, act, typical of their machinations.
In fact, this lawsuit would lead them to
laughable internet infamy, drawing the wrath of virtually every internet giant,
worldwide, in opposition to their goals. Nor did they deduce, then, that
filing a false claim in California, called a SLAPP suit, would gain them the
wrath of the California legislature. But it did.
Now, of course, after almost seven years of
litigation, they do know, and they found out the hard way. Now, of course,
as anyone knows, the piper needs to be paid, and the bill has been presented in
the form of a decision by the Oakland Superior Court ordering the threesome to
pay $434,000 US more than the $55,700 already collected, to just one of the
original Defendants, Ilena Rosenthal, and her attorneys.

Gerson Documentary
Humiliates Quackbusters
Monday, May 21st, 2007
- I almost spilled my cup of
jasmine tea, I was laughing so hard.
I had just been viewing the
first part of a DVD video documentary called "Dying to Have Known," and
I had to stop the thing right there, and rewind, to see if what I had just
seen really had happened. Yup, it did.
So I stopped it again, went
and got my wife Jan and said "You've got to come and watch this." It's
worth re-playing again and again.

Codex Adventures in Ottawa
- 35th Session of the Codex Committee
on Food Labeling (Ottawa, Canada),
April
30 - May 4, 2007
By Cheri Tips - Executive Director - National
Health Federation (NHF)
Thursday, May 10th, 2007 -
Note
- The NHF had two important objectives in this Ottawa meeting - (1)
keeping Genetically-Modified (GM) foods labeled as such, word-wide, and (2)
insuring that foods could make health claims. Despite fierce opposition
they accomplished both objectives. - Tim Bolen
The National Health Federation (NHF) has
International Nongovernmental Organization (INGO) observer status at all Codex
Alimentarius meetings and represents the interests of health-conscious
consumers. There were numerous countries and other INGOs present, interested
in various matters from labeling of genetically-modified foods to the labeling
of organic foods.
Importantly, too, the subject of the FAO/WHO's Global
Strategy on Diet, Physical Activity, and Health was discussed. MORE
Court Orders Quackbusters
Barrett
and Polevoy to Post $433,715.93 Bond...Thursday,
May 2nd, 2007 - The
"quackbuster"
organization is learning a very HARD lesson about the reality of the US legal
system. And, I'm very pleased.
They're learning, in the most
humiliating, and financially devastating way, that US Courts don't want the
system abused to harass those that the
"quackbusters"
don't like.
In the Barrett v. Clark case,
today, an order was issued for Plaintiffs
Terry Polevoy
MD, and
Stephen Barrett
MD, to come up with a grand total of $433,715.93 in bonds - $264,311.68 for
Polevoy alone, and $169,404.25 from Barret and Polevoy - within thirty days. Barrett runs the questionable website "quackwatch.com."
Polevoy
is kind of the Canadian low-budget copy of Barrett, with garish colors.

Throwing children into oncoming traffic: The truth about Autism
By: Kenneth
Stoller, MD, FAAP with Anne McElroy Dachel
Tuesday, April
24th, 2007 - I have been a
practicing pediatrician for over 20 years. I saw my first child with autism in
the early 90’s – before that I had never seen an autistic child, and I never
saw an autistic child in all my years at school. The boy was 4 years old and
you could see the frustration in his face as he wanted to speak but nothing
intelligible would come from his mouth except shrieks of anguish.
As I studied
his tortured face, it was as if there was an old time telephone switchboard
operator inside his head trying to plug in the correct phone cables but not
being able to complete the call. This family had known me from an old practice
I worked at in another city, but they had traveled to see me because they
trusted me and were looking for answers that
no
one seemed to have for them, but I too had no answers and I could see the mom
was greatly disappointed. After the family left my office I poured over a few
dusty textbooks and wondered if I had just seen a very rare disorder, a
disorder that affected one child in 10,000 children…autism.

"quackbuster"

Christopher Grell, leaving him, perhaps, in financial, and professional ruin.
Hundreds of pages of Court documents show the depth

Tuesday,

States knows that the current US Department of Health & Human Services (DHHS)

the simple fact that it doesn't work, trying desperately to keep practitioners
out of trouble when they attempt to wend their way through the billing miasma.
And, a miasma it is.

The Six Components of the 2008 Quackbuster Operation...
Friday, February 22nd, 2008
-
Do not, for even a second,
think that the US "Quackbuster" operation, a plot to stop anyone, and
everyone, from changing the broken US health care system, is run, or even
maintained, by delicensed MD Stephen Barrett out of his 2421 West Greenleaf
Street, Allentown,
Pennsylvania address, or his condo at 287 Stoneview, Pittsboro,
North Carolina. It would be foolish to assume that this bitter, nasty,
old man, who stumbles through life, tripping from one professional failure to
another, is running a cleverly set up plot. He's just the "front man."
The one they want you to focus on. He's ill. He'll die soon, and
someone else will take his place as the frontispiece.
So, who really is running it?
And why? And, how is it being done? Keep reading, and all will be
revealed.

Chronic Lyme Disease: Battle Requires Attack on Multiple Fronts
February 20th, 2008 - Most people
battling chronic Lyme disease think of the illness as an infection caused by a
bacterium known commonly as Borrelia Burgdorferi, generally transmitted via
the bite of an infected tick. What many don’t recognize, however, is that
recovery from chronic Lyme disease requires a recognition that the disease is
truly a much more complex illness. Recovery often challenges one to consider
more than just infection as the single causative agent involved in the disease
process. It is through looking beyond the infectious component of Lyme
disease and understanding the equally important aspects of damaging heavy
metals and other toxic insults that a more full and lasting recovery may be
realized.
Garry F. Gordon MD, DO, MD (H) co-founded the
American
College for Advancement in Medicine (ACAM) and serves as the President of
Gordon Research Institute. Dr. Gordon graciously spent a couple of hours
with me sharing his views on chronic Lyme disease and those factors that are
important in recovering from chronic illness.
Dr. Gordon acknowledges Lyme disease as a
serious infection which can lead to a wide-variety of health challenges. He
does not, however, hyperfocus on the specific tick-borne pathogens which cause
the disease. He instead believes that a multitude of infections are prevalent
in anyone with chronic ill health. In addition to these numerous infections,
our state of health is closely tied to our total body burden of endogenous and
exogenous toxins. When looking at why illness is present, it is important to
look at a number of factors including genetics, chronic infections, and total
body burden of heavy metals and other toxins.

The US is the Worst Place
in the World to Get Cancer Treatment...
Monday,
May 21st, 2007 - Everyone "in the know"
knows that if they, or a loved one, gets diagnosed with Cancer, that it's time
to get their Passport out of the safety deposit box, and start checking with
those who keep track, to find out just exactly where to go, right now, for the
best Cancer cure. For, if you stay in the US, and take the conventional
variety of Cancer treatment, your chances of survival are slim to none.
The conventional US Cancer
community is a murderous rip-off that generates shiploads of money. It
provides the most horrible death imaginable, with the most suffering, the
least hope, and the highest price paid. Europe, Asia, Mexico, the
Islands, Central America all offer solutions that work.

Does Aspartame multiply female MS? - New Study
Report at Neurology Conference...
By:
Dr. Betty Martini, D.Hum, Founder - Mission Possible
International
Monday, May 7th, 2007 - About 400,000 people in
the US are victims of Multiple Sclerosis (MS), a
horrible autoimmune disease that devastates the
central nervous system.
At
the American Academy of Neurology’s annual meeting,
Dr. Gary Cutter, professor of Biostatistics at the
University of Alabama, said women are now four times
as likely as men to get multiple sclerosis: “It
started at two-to-one and is now four-to-one.”
Researchers found the ratio of women-to-men is
increasing by about 50 percent each decade.
The increase is
more pronounced in younger people with young women
especially contracting it at an accelerating rate.

US Supreme Court Upholds "Ongom;"
Quackbuster "Plan of '96" Foiled...Wednesday,
April 25th, 2007 - The New York ad agency that
actually runs the US
"quackbuster"
operation has to be, this week, taking extra blood-pressure medication,
avoiding telephone calls from angry clients demanding to know why the
"Plan of '96"
isn't going to work as promised, anymore.
Why? Because the State of
Washington took the
"Ongom" decision to the US Supreme Court and that Court UPHELD the
Washington Supreme Court decision. This is very good for cutting-edge
heath professionals, and very bad for those trying to stop innovation in
health care.

Pennsylvania Dental Board
Approves Cavitat Device, NICO - Dumps Quackbusters...
Sunday,
April 22nd, 2007 - Public agencies have relied on
the
"quackbuster"
operation for expertise in health care issues far too long. The time
when an agency could fly some
"quackbuster"
bozo in for a hearing, have them testify to nonsense for a few hours, and
stuff them back on a plane, fat check in hand, with the sure knowledge they
had a "win" is long gone.
The State of Pennsylvania Chief
Counsel's office and the Pennsylvania Dental Board found that out the hard
way, over almost a three year period, in the "Commonwealth of Pennsylvania
v. Stephen R. Evans, DDS" case.
The case, which began in 2003,
upon the complaint of one of the
"quackbuster" nitwits, dragged through Administrative
hearings, Superior
Court, and back to Administrative hearing, then finally found its way back to
the Dental Board - with Orders from the Superior Court AND an Administrative
Law Judge to decide, completely, and unarguably, on behalf of the Respondent
Stephen R. Evans DDS.

Quackbuster Assaults:
Clark, the One that Worked in Reverse...
Monday,
April 9th, 2007 - The US
"quackbuster"
operation, suffers humiliation almost daily these days. When you listen
to their leadership discuss this problem they inevitably blame one person for
their woes - scientist, and author, Hulda Regehr Clark PhD.
76 year-old Clark, an
independent scientific researcher and author of six best-selling books on
health care and what's wrong with it, is clearly the most hated person in
quackbusterland. Why? Is it because they can't beat her down,
can't stop the sale of her books, can't have her imprisoned, can't destroy her
reputation, can't frighten her into submission, and can't destroy her work
through innuendo and smear tactics?
Yes, those are reasons, and good
ones, but they aren't what creates the vehemence and the spittle spewing from
"quackbuster"
lips when they discuss Hulda Regehr Clark PhD.

Vitamin Supplementation Prevents
Anorexia
OMNS February 9, 2008 - Anorexia
is primarily due to vitamin deficiency. Approximately one in twenty teenage
girls in America is struggling with an eating disorder. Parents can help
eliminate the risk of anorexia by providing their children with vitamin
supplements.
Anorexia is an acknowledged clinical marker of
beriberi, the disease specifically caused by a deficiency of vitamin B1
(thiamine). [1] Anorexia is also commonly observed as an early symptom of
pellagra (niacin deficiency) [2] and is a known complication of scurvy,
vitamin C deficiency. [3] Prevention is especially important, because
beriberi/anorexia often does not respond well even to treatment with high
doses of thiamine for months, and sometimes does not respond at all. [1] But
as a rule, high potency vitamin supplements are an effective cure for the loss
of muscle mass caused by beriberi and the skin lesions caused by pellagra.

Majority DDSs (52%) now mercury-free -
Tipping point at hand!
By Charles G. Brown, National
Counsel, Consumers For Dental Choice
Monday, May 21st, 2007
- The tipping point against mercury fillings, my
friends, has arrived. A dentist magazine surveyed its dentist readers, and
finds that 52% of American dentists now are mercury-free.
Wow.
This new dentist majority brings colossal ramifications upon America ’s
protectors of mercury fillings -- the American Dental Association and the
Food and Drug Administration.
I
wrote the head of the ADA to inform him that the ADA has missed the boat by
not exiting the mercury fillings business last year. (I even went to
Chicago in December to
hand them a graceful exit plan.) Choosing instead to stay mired in the 19th
century, ADA ’s pro-mercury members are likely to be picked off via lawsuits,
one-by-ones. The ADA , I advised Dr. Bramson, will morph into a numerical
shadow of itself, as its members wake up to the fact that this rallying around
mercury has been a sham;
With
this new evidence, if the ADA refuses to warn its dwindling band of
pro-mercury dentists to abandon mercury, the ADA likewise will be sitting in
the litigation dock. MORE
The
Mushroom Cloud that Caused Autism
Opinion by:
Kenneth Stoller, MD, FAAP with Anne McElroy Dachel
Friday, May 3rd, 2007
-
In the first article in this series on autism, a mercurial finger was pointed at
the high level of mercury children received from their vaccines and the huge
upswing in the autism rate. It was noted that the background level of mercury
pollution from coal-fire power plants and other sources (such as dental
amalgam) was so high that one in every six women in the US has a level of
mercury in her body high enough to affect her children’s health. The cost to
society of these affected children amounts to billions of dollars annually,
and the ultimate cost of caring for all those disabled will cost trillions.
Lastly, the point was made that this isn’t so much about autism as it is about
the future of human life on this planet if we don’t stop mercury pollution.
Concerning the issue of autism, the press has failed to present
both sides in the heated debate over a possible link between vaccines and this
devastating disorder. The last word is often given to the Centers for Disease
Control and Prevention, without any mention of the vast web of conflict of
interest ties between CDC employees and the pharmaceutical industry. MORE
US FDA: Maybe It's
Time for the Hercules Solution...
Wednesday,
April 18th, 2007 - In Greek mythology,
Aegeas, the king of Elis, had a vast herd of cattle. The stables in
which they were kept hadn't been cleaned in 30 years. By then it was
impossible to clean them and the resulting stench was unbearable.
Hercules, who had been assigned 12 stupendous tasks ("the Labours of
Hercules") to be performed in atonement for a crime he had supposedly
committed, came on the scene. One of those tasks was to clean the Aegean
stables. Hercules did the job in one day by diverting a river to flow thorough
the King’s stables.
The phrase "clean the
Aegean stables" now means to clear away an accumulated mass of corruption
– physical, moral, ethical, legal...
The stench at the US Food
& Drug Administration (FDA) is unbearable. The FDA, designed to regulate
certain industries in the US, has been taken over, in its entirety, by those
industries, who operate the agency for their own benefit. There is no
argument against this statement. At FDA the tail is wagging
the dog. Americans are being regulated by industries. It's the way
it is.

Ten US Senators say:
"We want to fix health care NOW..."
Thursday,
February 15th, 2007 - Ten US
Senators, two days ago, wrote a bi-partisan letter to President George W. Bush
saying:
"Each of us believes our
current health system needs to be fixed now. Further delay is unacceptable as
costs continue to skyrocket, our population ages, and chronic illness
increases. In addition, our businesses are at a severe disadvantage when their
competitors in the global market get health care for “free.”"
I'm going to say this once again - Nobody even tries to hide the fact that
the US Health Care System is broken
beyond repair. There is a lot of finger-pointing going
on, as well there should be.
The US health care system costs too much, it's the top three killers of
Americans, and Americans don't trust it. It
simply doesn't work.
Who's fault is
this? Blame lies
solidly with the management of the US Department of Health & Human Services (DHHS).
Current management is incapable of dealing with health care problems. It
has set up a US Health Care system that doesn't work, and has no chance of
ever working.
