The “Profitable Consumer”: Understanding their role in the Health Care, Agricultural, Chemical and Pharmaceutical Industry?
If you owned a business that exponentially grew in value in relation to the increasing rates of illnesses and diseases, would you alter your business model to help society or continue to generate increasing revenue at society’s expense?

THE HUMAN LIVESTOCK EXPERIMENT
When did we sign ANY informed consent authorizing our government and agricultural industry to enroll us in an experimental “HUMAN LIVESTOCK” PROJECT (using potentially toxic chemicals for farm use and residential use) to see whether we’d suffer any serious adverse health outcomes? Pesticides, herbicides, insecticides and fungicides are poisons that KILL weeds, insects and other […]
THE INVOLUNTARY SACRIFICE OF OUR HEALTH LIBERTIES

WHY DOES THE TRUTH TAKE 30-40 YEARS TO DISCOVER?
PCB’s PCB history is not pretty. The manufacturers and major users of PCB’s knew by the 1930s and 1940s that PCB’s caused serious health problems in their workers, and doctors advised them that other effects could be occurring as well. But this did not stop industries from producing and using PCBs, or from releasing PCBs into […]
SHIFTING THE MEANING OF “TRYING” FROM EXCUSE TO POSITIVE INTENT
We find ourselves in a time when the health of our population continues to diminish even though the life expectancy continues to lengthen. This translates (for many) into a prolonged “life sentence” of disease, dysfunction and depression. To reverse this direction, we need to discover real motivation within ourselves. We need to understand and accept […]

Changing A False HEALTH Reality
Whether it’s naivety, trust in authority or lack of concern we have blindly followed our government and our health care institutional policies.

Planet earth has been around for approximately 4.543 billion years according to Wikipedia. When do you think viruses and bacteria first came to our planet and how do you think they arrived?

The HUMAN Lab Rat Experiment
Cigarettes were first commercially produced in 1865. In 1881 the first cigarette machine was invented creating the opportunity to massively distribute this product. In 1964 the Surgeon General of the U.S. (the chief doctor for the country) wrote a report about the dangers of cigarette smoking. He said that the nicotine and tar in cigarettes […]
FEAR Is Not A Viable Choice
Initially, when I thought about the word “FEAR” the image that came to mind was an individual withdrawing from a situation that elicited this emotion. It was a personal emotion which resided in the mind and caused this response. As the days go by and the stories spread throughout the United States about the various doctors […]
