Beware and be informed
----------------------------------------Big Pharma and the government haven't met a nutritional supplement that they didn't want to control. For Big Pharma, it's all about profits. For the government, it's all about power. The pharmaceutical industry can't patent those natural sources of vitamins and minerals, so they collude with the government to restrict their use, all for the "safety" of the American people's health, of course. Then they turn around and create a synthetic version of what we can get freely in nature and charge us an arm and a leg to purchase it! By banning all-natural vitamins and herbs--or by classifying them as "drugs" that fall under the regulation of the FDA and other regulatory agencies--Big Pharma can eliminate all competition and completely dominate the market for drugs, vitamins, and remedies. It has already happened in Europe, beginning in 2004. By making it cost-prohibitive to sell a natural vitamin or herbal supplement through the requirement of licensing each individual component of a compound (to the tune of $125,000 to $180,000 per ingredient), they have effectively stopped the natural supplement industry in its tracks. Senator Edward Kennedy introduced a bill in 2007 which was the foundation for the exact same legislative process in America, with the FDA holding licensing power over every ingredient of every supplement to hit the market. While the bill passed in the Senate, the House allowed it to die and the president never signed it. However, in 2011, the FDA once again proposed that each nutritional supplement company be forced to submit comprehensive NDI (New Dietary Ingredient) documentation for each ingredient used in every product a supplement company carries. The thing is, under this new program, every single supplement company must remove their products from "interstate commerce" for the 75 days after the FDA receives their initial applications. This onerous burden of paperwork and cost would have the chilling effect of running supplement companies out of business. And who would be affected? The people of America, who are told on a daily basis that we don't have the right to choose the food we want to eat, whether we're trying to buy from a local farmer or trying to bring a sack lunch to school. I take twelve different supplements a day and they helped me get off statins and coumadin which is a blood thinner--blood clots in my right leg-- ![]() [Edit 1 times, last edit by GeraldRube at Feb 27, 2012 10:31:16 PM] |

Hi all. I am getting better every day. In 4 days they will remove the last probe coming out of my body. Then I hope to get more details on the chances for the cancer to be gone for good. On the other hand since prostate removal is the first step for a sex change, I was advised to watch for the following symptoms: Getting upset for no apparent reasons, getting distracted by shining objects and the worst is not being able to parallel park. I’ll let you know of any development, for now I have too stop typing, I just broke a finger nail. Regards Rej Rej, you have nothing to worry about until you look at the timestamp at the bottom of each post and are convinced they are six inches long! Waiting to hear more good news from you next week. |

Regards Rej For the first year you will need to get a blood test every 3 months for PSA and then in the second year it goes to every six months. Here's hoping all your readings are zeros. Cheers
