Are You Addicted to Soda?

According to some knowledgeable sources, serious health consequences can arise from consuming soft drinks on a regular basis. If you’re like me, you probably have noticed most people that purchase carbonated soft drinks (soda) do so in large quantities. They often buy the stuff caseloads at a time.

Just a few days ago, I was sandwiched between two customers, in a grocery checkout aisle, that had several cases of soda products in their shopping carts. The persons buying the merchandise both looked extremely unhealthy. They were overweight; had visibly poor looking teeth and an unhealthy looking complexion. The entire scene, in the checkout aisle, motivated me to write this article.

In my opinion, the corporations producing and distributing the world’s soft drinks have created, over time, a never-ending supply of consumers that are addicted to drinking their patented concoctions. I think a lot of people are afraid to go out on a limb and state the obvious; soft drinks are extremely addictive in nature. Anyone that takes the time to research the consumption habits of soda drinkers will quickly come to the same conclusion I have. These so called refreshments are actually highly addictive chemicals and people, all over the world, are hopelessly addicted to them.

The ingredients in soda can be a risk to any person’s good health. For example, the acid in carbonated soft drinks causes demineralization of the body’s bones. This leads to a condition known as osteopenia. When viewed on a radiograph, osteopenia is referred to as the more commonly known term, osteoporosis. People that are addicted to drinking sodas are unnecessarily predisposing themselves to osteoporosis which can lead to stress fractures throughout the skeletal system.

In addition to eating your bones, sodas can screw up the body’s insulin levels which can stress out the pancreas. In a nutshell, this can lead to obesity, diabetes and a whole host of other physiological challenges.

The acid content within soda products can also dissolve the natural, enamel coverings protecting human teeth. Once the enamel is removed, it paves the way for dental caries and a general loss of dental integrity.

The question that naturally comes to mind is what can be done to solve such a serious health dilemma? The answer, unfortunately, is not very much. There is little that can be done because the soda industry is operated by very powerful companies that have the power and wealth to keep their toxic products within the public domain. Soft drinks are marketed around the world as harmless refreshments. Major sporting events and just about any significant entertainment venue are routinely sponsored by companies that produce soft drink beverages. The American people have grown up with these products. Soda and other toxic soft drinks are now a big part of our culture.

The only way to change a paradigm is to slowly educate the public over time. In this particular situation, the process of educating an addicted, consuming public will be challenging. In an ideal situation, our government would force the manufacturers of such products to place warning labels on soda cans that clearly state the contents are addictive and pose a significant risk to a person’s health and well-being. I don’t see that happening anytime soon. In the meantime, educating the public one article at a time will have to suffice. Help me spread the word by passing this post around to family and friends you think might benefit from reading such content.

Financial Armageddon: Is This A Golden Opportunity?

Posted in Economy with tags , , , , on May 19, 2012 by Dr. John Reizer

Don’t you find it interesting that precious metals have dropped in value over the past several months? Keep in mind that we are still in the early stages of the world’s greatest financial depression ever. Let’s face facts, the U.S. and global economies aren’t going to turn around anytime soon and governments aren’t going to stop printing worthless fiat currencies. Precious metals should be climbing in value.

Why might precious metals be losing value at this point in time? With the prospects looking favorable for the demise of paper (electronic) fiat money (U.S. Dollar/Euro), one would logically think gold and silver would continue to climb in value.

Are we witnessing a blatant manipulation of the precious metal markets, by the powers that be, in order to instill a false sense of confidence in paper currencies and Wall Street?

Do people really believe the U.S. dollar and foreign currencies are a better safe haven than tangible, precious metals? Is this really the time to unload precious metals in order to stack up on fiat currencies, or is this actually a last chance opportunity to purchase precious metals before prices reach obscene levels?

In 2008, we watched a completely orchestrated, financial meltdown take place right in front of our eyes. Most people, who tuned into the mainstream media companies at the time, believed the reported propaganda that claimed the economic unrest of 2008 was a normal, cyclical event. Well, I’ve got some eye-opening news for you. The powers that be created financial unrest in 2008 so that strategic bailouts could be offered to major companies that have since profited tremendously. The “too big to fails” have profited and the public that was forced to bail them out have suffered and will continue to do so for the rest of their lives. Austerity measures are about to be implemented in the United States and around the world like never before.

What happened in 2008 is going to look like a blip on the radar screen compared to the financial tsunami that is about to be unleashed, globally, in the very near future. Oh, it’s going to happen. Europe’s financial meltdown is already being played up in the media. The upcoming financial collapse is a no-brainer. You cannot fix the world’s financial woes by continuing to bail out mountains of debt with more fiat money which, ultimately, causes even more debt.

The prices of precious metals are definitely being manipulated lower than they should. The reason this is happening is because the powers that be are currently buying metals like hot cakes. When the greatest financial collapse finally does occur, metal prices will go through the roof. In the meantime, the powers that be are hoping the average person will continue to sell their gold for more worthless fiat currency.

Why the NIOSH NFL Study is Somewhat Misleading

Posted in Health with tags , , , , , , , , on May 12, 2012 by Dr. John Reizer

By Dr. John L. Reizer

Editor at NoFakeNews.net

In 1990, the NFLPA (National Football League Player’s Association) requested NIOSH (The National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health) to perform a study on the rate and causes of death for its players.

According to the results of the study, NFL players, which played from the years 1959-1988 for at least five years, lived longer than men in the general population, experienced less cancer than people in the general population, and experienced less heart disease than members of the general population. Interesting to note, certain player positions, where players had a higher BMI (Body Mass Index) were found to have a higher rate of heart disease than other players.

Historically, there’s been some concern amongst parents of young children as well as older, professional players about the dangers associated with contact sports. I can remember listening to talk radio programs, many years ago, that discussed the hypothetical dangers connected to soccer players that “headed the ball” repeatedly, and what that type of repetitive trauma might do, over time, to young athletes. Currently, there are a lot of articles being written about the dangers associated with playing football.

I have to admit that I have been a big football fan for many years. I love to watch the sport and follow, pretty religiously, a particular professional team. I’ve been engaged in this strange obsession for a long time.

In my opinion, the NIOSH study is a bit misleading because it doesn’t take into consideration the large category of diseases that are attributable to neurodegenerative disorders. Neurodegenerative disorders are conditions that affect the integrity of the human nervous system. As a doctor of chiropractic, I can tell you that interferences to the human nervous system can be a major cause of systemic disease in all human beings.

The nervous system is a very complex subject. In a nutshell, it is the conduit of life for all creatures. It allows vital instructions for health to be transmitted from the brain to its target organs, tissues, and cells which in turn provides each of us an opportunity to express our unique genetic potential through physical matter. A person’s health is very dependent upon a properly functioning nervous system. It is, ultimately, a breakdown in neurological pathways that provides the necessary environment for the genesis of disease.

Repetitive trauma to the human body, in my opinion, can cause a plethora of problems for the nervous system. Just from a chiropractic perspective alone, the amount of spinal misalignments that would most likely show up in the spines of players participating in football, as well as other sports, is incredibly high.

Misaligned spinal bones (also known as vertebral subluxations) can and regularly do interfere with the proper functioning of the human nervous system. Over time, a dysfunctional nervous system can lead to a less than optimal expression of health in the human body. In simple English, this means that a person with any interference to the nervous system could eventually become susceptible to numerous diseases, including autoimmune disorders.

There is evidence, already on the books, that proves repetitive trauma can cause neurodegenerative problems. When we examine the misfortunes of professional boxers like Muhammad Ali, that have experienced repetitive traumas to the head, we can begin to understand how devastating neurodegenerative disorders can be to the overall physiological construct of the human body.

Unfortunately, most people think of neurodegenerative problems as being limited to the head. For the most part, that’s how they have been defined by the traditional health sources that people rely upon for their health information. But it’s important to keep in mind that the nervous system is very large and runs throughout the body. Anytime an organ is jarred or physically impacted in an injurious way, it creates far reaching effects for the entire nervous system. All organs, tissues, and cells must transmit and receive information to and from the brain via the nervous system. Messages of health run in afferent and efferent pathways and a disruption of communications in either direction can cause severe health related problems over time.

Professional football is big business. It is sponsored by partners in the entertainment industry, food industry, communications industry, petrochemical industry, the United States government, and probably other key players I am leaving out. Don’t believe, for one single second, that the powers that be will let this product be harmed. Football is a twelve month long business and it’s vital to the American economy and also to the government. Without football, and other American pastimes, people might begin questioning really important issues that are, most certainly, impacting the world on a daily basis. Government does not want football to die!

The fact that this old NIOSH study was dragged out of the closet, at this particular time, and plastered all across the media circuit is not an accident. Perception is reality in every facet of life, including the sports world. The powers that be want their product perceived in a positive way. That’s why this study, which really doesn’t address the issue at hand (neurodegenerative disorders), is being showcased for all to see and hear.

The protectors of the NFL don’t want what happened to professional boxing to happen to pro football. At one time, everyone in the world could name the different boxing champions of the world. Today, the sport is a non factor in the eyes of most people. The bad taste of what happened to Muhammad Ali due to repetitive trauma to his head, from years of boxing, has turned many people away from following the sport.

Even future hall of fame quarterback, Kurt Warner, said recently that he’d prefer his children not play the sport that gave him fame and fortune. I don’t think you could get a more honest opinion about the dangers of professional football from anyone else.

If I was a parent of a young boy, I’d guide my child away from playing football because the chances of acute and cumulative injuries are far too great, in my opinion. Every parent has to weigh and balance the potential risks and rewards associated with many situations in life. In the case of football, I’d prefer it if my son was a spectator versus a player.

Health Advice: Everything We Have Been Taught Is Wrong!

Posted in Health with tags , , , on May 9, 2012 by Dr. John Reizer

By Dr. John L. Reizer

Editor at NoFakeNews.net

During my lifetime, I have repeatedly come across misinformation campaigns, originating from respected sources, which offered horrible advice about health. The misinformation presented was so bad that it should have been considered a crime against humanity when it was published.

I have come to the conclusion that if I want to be healthy, I should do the complete opposite of what mainstream medicine advises. It’s truly a case of “Alice in Wonderland.” Everything we have learned from the traditional medical institutions of higher learning is wrong. We should listen carefully to that advice and then do the exact opposite in order to achieve the highest level of health possible.

Following my own advice, this is what I have decided:

  1. If I want to be the recipient of good nutrition, I should totally ignore the food pyramid that is published and endorsed by the U.S. government.
  2. If I want to lose weight, I should include healthy fats in my diet and avoid low and non fat products.
  3. If I want to be healthy, I should avoid artificial sugars like Aspartame, Splenda, Saccharin and similar products in the little, colored packets. I should consume Stevia or, in a worse case scenario, sugar. At least my body can recognize sugar as a food.
  4.  If I want to be healthy, I should understand that lowering my cholesterol with or without statin drugs can harm my immune system in many different ways.
  5. If I want to be healthy, I should cook my food in a conventional oven and not in a microwave contraption that changes the structure of proteins so my body cannot recognize the foods.
  6. If I want to be healthy, I should get plenty of sunlight (which stimulates the production of vitamin D in my body and prevents cancer) and not use sun block products which inhibit Vitamin D production and contain harmful ingredients that have been known to cause cancer.
  7. If I want to be healthy, I should avoid mammograms, (they cause breast cancer) eat a healthy diet and get plenty of vitamin D.
  8. If I want to be healthy, I should avoid toxic vaccines (they’re causing many allergies, autoimmune diseases, cancers and Autism) because they’re unnatural and will totally destroy my immune system for the remainder of my life.
  9. If I want to be healthy, I shouldn’t take drugs that alter my body’s metabolism; interfere with my nervous system, and suppress the natural abilities my body has to heal itself.
  10. If I want to be healthy, I should avoid soft drinks and consume plenty of fresh water that doesn’t contain fluoride and chlorine.
  11. If I want to be healthy, I should avoid using fluoridated toothpaste.
  12. If I want to be healthy, I should only visit a doctor for emergency situations.
  13. If I want to be healthy, I should tell my dentist not to put amalgam (mercury filled) fillings in my teeth, but instead ask him or her to use composite fillings, when necessary.
  14. If I want to be healthy, I should perform moderate exercise everyday.
  15. If I want to be healthy, I should keep my mind active, research topics of interest, and don’t become misinformed by corporate owned media companies that regularly disseminate misinformation that is dangerous to my physical, emotional and mental well being.
  16. If I want to be healthy, I should disconnect my television and read more books. If I want to watch a movie, I should rent a DVD. At least when I’m watching a DVD, I’m aware the story is fiction, unlike when I’m watching stories being reported through traditional news companies. I assume those stories are real, but in reality they are not.

You see, we live in a world that is like Alice in Wonderland. Everything is 180 degrees opposite of what we think it to be.

2009 Scientific Study Proves Traditional Chiropractic’s Major Premise!

Posted in Health with tags , , , , , , , , , on May 5, 2012 by Dr. John Reizer

By Dr. John L. Reizer

Editor at NoFakeNews.net

For many years, traditional chiropractic’s major premise (an improperly functioning nervous system, due to a spinal subluxation (misalignment) will cause human beings to have a less than optimal expression of health) has been attacked by mainstream medicine. Regardless of the fact that numerous scientific studies have been conducted by medical researchers that clearly demonstrate the extreme importance of neurological and endocrine integrity in a living person; the chiropractic practice objective is still not taken seriously.

As a practitioner of chiropractic, I have dedicated a good portion of my professional career to the arduous task of attempting to educate my patients about the importance of getting their spines checked on a regular basis.

Although my career as a chiropractor has been very rewarding for me personally, it’s also been an exhausting experience in some ways. To have to continuously go against the conventional mindset of the average health care consumer is not always an enjoyable exercise. When just about every person perceives you as a circle and you’re a square, it can definitely get on your nerves after awhile.

Most people think of traditional chiropractic as something that is less than scientific; a drugless therapy for back pain; or a strange form of massage. Traditional chiropractic, of course, has nothing to do with any of those preconceived, public notions. To begin with, traditional chiropractic is based on very scientific principles, has nothing to do with back pain, and is a completely distinct and separate profession from massage therapy.

It’s not difficult to understand traditional chiropractic theory, it’s just damn inconvenient for everyone involved to change a societal paradigm that directly affects the health and well being of every person on the planet. And I’m not even getting into the financial considerations that are involved with changing such a paradigm.

How do you break the news to the average person that they’ve been continuously lied to throughout their lives? How do you explain to people that the best way to affect healthy changes in their bodies is by removing interferences that can and do impede their true expressions of physiology? And finally, how do you drive the point home that synthetically patented drugs, although they can alter the way you feel, can never provide a human being with a better expression of health?

In 2009, a scientific study was published by The Endocrine Society ® titled, “Endocrine –Disrupting Chemicals.” The premise and conclusion of the study demonstrated that certain chemicals we commonly encounter, in our environment and foods, have the abilities to interfere with the human endocrine system. The endocrine system is responsible for regulating and controlling the many hormones in our bodies. It is the chemical messaging system that ensures proper human physiology occurs.

A breakdown or interference in the endocrine system would cause all sorts of problems to occur in an otherwise healthy person. Whenever interference occurs in our body, physiology suffers. Things like cancer and autoimmune disorders begin to show up and healthy people become unhealthy.

The study that was conducted by The Endocrine Society ® speaks volumes about the importance of the nervous system and also traditional chiropractic. Our nervous system (the brain, spinal cord, spinal nerves) regulates and controls the functions of the endocrine system as well as every other system inside us.

The 2009 study proves, quite convincingly, what traditional chiropractic has been practicing and stating for well over a hundred years; an important factor leading to proper health can be easily achieved by simply removing a type of interference from the human nervous system that commonly occurs in the form of a spinal misalignment, also known as a vertebral subluxation.

Regularly visiting a chiropractor to have your spine’s alignment checked, not just because you have back pain, can improve your health drastically. Understand from this point forward that the integrity of your spine’s alignment is of paramount importance to your health. And if it wasn’t for the fact that this structural problem, which occurs in every human being from time to time, generates zero revenue for pharmaceutical companies, you’d see it advertised on the evening news. The sad truth is that because it doesn’t promote Big Pharma’s agenda, it’s disregarded by “science” and made to look “unscientific.”

Be sure you read the study, linked above, in order to gain a better understanding about how important our nervous system really is when it comes to maintaining a proper level of health.

It’s Time to Disconnect from the Fake News

Posted in 2012, Economy, Health, Off World with tags , , , , , , , on May 3, 2012 by Dr. John Reizer

Some things in life are harder to learn than others. For most people, learning to ride a bicycle, without training wheels for the very first time, is probably easier than learning how to become a good listener. Becoming an accomplished pianist is probably a more difficult task to master than learning how to crochet socks.

In my opinion, one of the most difficult things for any of us to learn is how to disconnect from the ‘fake news’ companies that fill our heads with continuous misinformation. There are many Americans aware of the fact that major news companies are intentionally misleading us. They get it. They understand these corporations are trying to project a false understanding about many events occurring throughout the global landscape.

Despite their awareness of this most grievous crime against the public, many people continue to watch and read the different media products controlled by the few. It’s as if the masses have become hopelessly addicted to a bad drug. Now that many of us know the ‘media drug’ is bad, and we collectively recognize the fact we’ll never truly understand what’s taking place in the world as long as we continue to subscribe to such propaganda, it’s time to take action!

It’s time for all of us to make the necessary commitment to bring about certain changes in our lives that will alter our understanding of reality. We must do this today, not tomorrow. To procrastinate any longer is far too dangerous. The stakes are extremely high and we cannot afford to be drugged by the mainstream media any longer.

To be misinformed and not realize the process is taking place is one thing. To be misinformed and cognizant that the process is an ongoing campaign designed to deceive an entire country is something completely different and should not be tolerated by knowledgeable individuals. Those of us that are aware of what our national media companies represent should not utilize their services any longer. We should disconnect from the systematic, television programming of the masses. We should disconnect from the systematic, magazine programming of the masses. We should disconnect from the systematic, radio programming of the masses. I think you get the picture. It’s time to disconnect from the fake news!

It’s also time for us to stop being the enabling culture we’ve become. Although it might be difficult, for some, to call their satellite and cable TV providers and ask them to terminate such services, it’s something that has to be done. If you really have a desire to remove yourself from a media induced coma, make the call today.

Will it be easy to disconnect from the national media companies? Probably not. Is it easy to stop drinking toxic, artificial sweeteners? No. But if we want to regain our health, we have to stop consuming products that are hazardous to our continued well being. This applies to all poisons, including the poisons that directly affect our minds.

The person sitting on a slightly protruding nail, on top of a bench, can either continue to complain about the pain in his or her backside or get up from the bench and hammer the annoyance back into its proper position, permanently eliminating the irritant. It is  really that simple when you stop and think about it.

Is There A Giant Conspiracy Against Conspiracy Theorists?

Posted in 2012, Economy, Health, Off World with tags , , , , , , on April 27, 2012 by Dr. John Reizer

By Dr. John L. Reizer

Editor at NoFakeNews.net

Did you ever notice anytime someone attempts to question a mainstream explanation about a controversial event, which has been handed down from official sources, the individual is immediately attacked by most members of society? It’s true! If you were to suggest there were other gunmen involved in the murder of President John F. Kennedy, the people listening to you would, undoubtedly, dismiss your claim as ridiculous and classify you as a conspiracy theorist. Your audience would almost instantly begin to roll their eyes towards the back of their heads. Offer a new angle on September 11, 2001, that is in opposition to the official government explanation, and the eye tremors will commence again. The same process would apply to many other suspect events that have taken place that were later explained by so called “trusted sources.”

Have the majority of us been systematically hypnotized to reject anything that strays away from officialdom? Have we been programmed, by official media sources, to automatically reject alternative and plausible explanations concerning certain subjects?

Once you become aware of this phenomenon, it’s quite disturbing to see it unfold in front of your eyes. Everyday acquaintances, family members, and close friends all seem to fall under the same spell. It’s as if the people rolling their eyes are trying to switch off their brains so they can go to sleep in order to avoid the truth. Think about it. When you go to sleep, your eyes roll back inside their sockets in a similar fashion. I honestly believe that people have been conditioned to fall asleep when they’re presented with something other than what “the powers that be” have authorized for public consumption.

Most of society’s members don’t seem to have a strong desire to challenge conventionality, even when there is hard evidence suggesting they should. And the vast majority of people regularly police and encourage others to swallow officialdom.

For every person that has the guts to stand alone, in an attempt to set the record straight about something that has been painted in a disingenuous manner, I’ll wager there are ten people looking to suppress the truth.

The suppression of truthful information, by powerful people worldwide, is routinely accomplished on a regular basis. Governments that have been entrusted by the public to honorably represent their countrymen seem to be letting us down big time. Unfortunately, these governing bodies are not completely transparent with their constituents and are more than willing to lie to the public they are supposed to represent. They lie in concert, with other countries, for maximum effect. They suppress the truth and label persons questioning their agendas as conspiracy theorists.

Why do so many people find it difficult to believe in conspiracy theories? By examining human nature and recorded history, one can easily observe that conspiracies do occur.

According to the Random House Dictionary, a conspiracy theory is: “the idea that many important political events or economic and social trends are the products of secret plots that are largely unknown to the general public.” (Dictionary.com Unabridged – Based on the Random House Dictionary, © Random House, Inc.)

After reading that definition, how could anyone deny this is happening worldwide? The truth be told; classifying someone’s position about a certain subject as a conspiracy theory is nothing more than a convenient way to dismiss the truth. People are so heavily vested in the practice of embracing conventional answers/solutions, that they automatically label anything outside the defined borders of conventional thinking as a conspiracy theory.

It’s time for people to wake up, to stop rolling their eyes, and to understand that not everything that challenges conventionality should be routinely dismissed. Sometimes the uncomfortable truth is not a conspiracy theory – it’s just a plain old fashioned conspiracy!
