The Danger of Embracing Quackery as Science

 reizer3As a practitioner of chiropractic, I have often found myself in the uncomfortable position of having to defend the professional objective I am licensed to practice. Unfortunately, alternative health care disciplines, like chiropractic, are relentlessly attacked by mainstream media companies, the petrochemical industry, organized medicine and others. Any healing art that even hints at the idea that health can be attained, regained, or improved from the inside out, without the use of synthetic products and dangerous surgeries, is a sure target for ridicule by the scientific community.

It is quite ironic that what is often embraced by society as science is really quackery.  One of the most frustrating things I have had to witness, year after year, are the blatant lies being published and distributed concerning cancer, autoimmune disorders and many other diseases that the drug companies profit from. In most instances, natural health practitioners are unable to point out to health care consumers, on a large platform, the illogical nature of mainstream, medical objectives. There is just way too much money at work in the campaigns that promote such nonsense as real science. Unfortunately, the “global powers that be” closely control the mainstream media productions that are continuously broadcast and greatly influence the masses about what is perceived to be science and quackery.

Enter the recent news about actress, Angelina Jolie, and her decision to have elective breast surgery (a double mastectomy to prevent breast cancer in her immediate future). Angelina’s decision is being touted by many in the media as something that is positive. She has been applauded on television by men and women for being proactive in the fight against breast cancer. Others have also elected to have this type of surgery and have written about how their decisions have changed their lives for the better on Internet blogs. It seems as if the self-mutilation of women is being demonstrated as a good thing. Once again, idiot medicine is being promoted to the masses as the best thing science has to offer.

Deciding to have your breasts cut off to prevent the possible expression of a supposed “breast cancer gene” is tantamount to having your heart removed to prevent a heart attack because your family has a history of heart disease. Why not practice some less invasive procedures first? Why not embrace a healthy diet and lifestyle that makes the expression of breast cancer in certain women less likely? Even if you fully accept the breast cancer gene propaganda currently being showcased as valuable information, there is enough proof that many women carrying this trait never contract breast cancer.

The simple fact is organized medicine is based on a premise that is fundamentally flawed. It is, in its purest form, a type of quackery. Contrary to what petrochemical companies would like us to believe, human beings are not born on this planet with too many organs and a lack of synthetic drugs in their bodies. This paradigm was developed over time by drug companies and has always been congruent with a business culture that strives to keep people on a never ending list of toxic products so that a myriad of symptoms, and their associated diseases, can be managed indefinitely.

There are never any cures offered by modern medicine and there never will be. To create and offer a cure is to remove a profitable disease business from the arsenal of a vast empire. Again, at the risk of seeming redundant, let me write that this has never been the goal of western medicine and the drug companies that have bought and paid for what we currently believe is scientific and unbiased, medical research. Outside of emergency medical management and trauma based care, traditional medicine has always caused more problems in human beings than it has eliminated.

The strong promotion of a long list of vaccines to the citizens of the world, as a means to eradicate individual diseases, is perhaps one of the biggest frauds to have ever been unleashed on an unsuspecting society. It is this campaign that has, in all likelihood, created more autoimmune disorders and other diseases in human beings than anything else in the world. What is being advertised by mainstream science as the best way to prevent diseases is actually causing the proliferation of sickness worldwide.

What will we witness next from these medical idiots? Will they encourage the removal of someone’s perfectly healthy brain in order to protect a patient from possible, future brain cancer?

Evidently, it is now customary to embrace quackery as science and science as quackery? The danger of doing so, however, becomes quite obvious when we examine just how unsuccessful America and other countries have become in their attempts to eliminate various maladies that continue to plague humanity.

Why Everyone Needs a Good Chiropractor

Not very long ago I attended a health fair where I performed chiropractic spinal exams for members of my community. After checking a prospective patient on my portable chiropractic table, the man got up and said to me, “But I feel great doc – why do I need a chiropractor?” I hear this same question over and over again from different laypersons I examine at health screenings. The answer to the man’s question is actually very important for readers to understand. Chiropractic has absolutely nothing to do with how patients are feeling and everything to do with how they are functioning.

Traditional chiropractors are doctors who specialize in monitoring the integrity of the spinal column’s alignment. Most of the spinal problems that chiropractors work on do not cause pain or discomfort in people. They do, however, cause a loss of general health and well being in all human beings.

Chiropractic is often misunderstood by many people. Quite a few laypersons mistakenly believe that chiropractic is some sort of “new age” therapy for back and neck pain. The idea that chiropractic is nothing more than a “mechanical aspirin” has been promoted over time by organized medicine. The origin of such blatant disinformation comes from a plethora of drug companies that relentlessly paint traditional chiropractic’s objective as something that is less than scientific.

Tiny misalignments, which can regularly occur within the framework of the human spinal column, can place pressure on spinal nerves that exist in close proximity to the spinal bones. These tiny misalignments, for the most part, do not cause symptomatic discomfort in patients. Spinal misalignments, also known as vertebral subluxations, can interfere with the nervous system’s ability to function properly. Chiropractors perform regular spinal examinations for patients in an effort to determine where specific subluxations are located within the spinal column. Once a subluxation is located, the chiropractor uses a manual (by hand) adjustment to correct the bone’s alignment in relationship to the other spinal segments above and below it.

Because most of the spinal nerves in the body are not involved with transmitting pain sensations to the brain, it is nearly impossible for patients to determine when or where they might be subluxated. Only a skilled chiropractor is capable of determining when a particular patient is subluxated and needs to be adjusted.

Sometimes patients will claim that they can tell if subluxations are present within their spines. In reality, this is not likely. Patients can often feel muscle pain and other soft tissues that might be injured however, the possibility of a patient identifying the location or existence of a specific subluxation is remote at best.

It is my recommendation to the members of any community that every person should get his or her spine checked frequently by a qualified chiropractor. Spinal subluxations can cause serious damage to the nervous system and if left intact for an extended period of time, these misalignments can cause permanent dysfunction to nerves that directly influence vital organs and systems within the body. A person’s health can decline substantially if subluxations in the spinal column are not corrected.

New School Rules: T-dap Vaccine Mandatory for Seventh Graders?

Posted in Health with tags , , , on March 12, 2013 by Dr. John Reizer

By Dr. John L. Reizer

Editor at NoFakeNews.net

reizer3According to the South Carolina Department of Health and Environmental Control, all 7th grade students will be required to have the T-dap vaccination for the 2013-2014 school year or be denied access to public school registration.

My daughter was handed a brochure that displayed the information and was quite concerned when I picked her up from school recently. Knowing very well that she has never received any vaccinations due to philosophical/religious reasons, she was quite upset over the fact that she might not be able to attend public school in the fall.

I assured my daughter that this was not the case at all. In the state of South Carolina, medical and religious exemptions are permitted regarding required immunizations for public schools.

It is important for parents to understand that immunizations are considered to be very dangerous medicines by many health care practitioners throughout the world. No health care practitioner can guarantee a parent that there is absolutely no chance of a child being harmed from these pharmaceutical products.

At a minimum, parents should review research/articles that have been published regarding some of the possible dangers concerning vaccinations before consenting to have their children vaccinated. If after reading the published materials parents still want to allow their children to receive these drugs, they have the right to do so.

No human being, however, should be forced to take medicines without giving his or her consent. The fact that public schools are sending home literature designed to intimidate parents and young children into believing they have no choice but to submit to certain vaccines is very concerning to me. I felt compelled to write this article to let everybody know that there are ways around this requirement if your desire is to protect your loved ones from potentially dangerous medicines.

The Church of Common Sense was founded in 2001 and is in opposition to mandatory vaccinations for all human beings. They are always looking for new members and not opposed to their members belonging to other churches simultaneously.

I hope that this article has clarified for my readers some of the confusion regarding this very controversial subject.

Do Natural Cures Really Exist?

Posted in Health with tags , , , on March 10, 2013 by Dr. John Reizer

For the longest time, people have been exposed to marketing campaigns that glorify the natural healing capabilities of certain products. We’ve all heard and seen the impressive pitches through the mediums of radio and television. Creams, lotions, supplements, lasers, radio frequencies and other natural items have been pedaled by various individuals and small companies in an effort to garner the interests of health care consumers that are challenged by chronic health problems.

The average person views most alleged natural cures with an attitude of skepticism, and for good reason. There are a lot of disingenuous people in the world looking to make a quick buck off desperate and sick individuals. But before you make the mistake of writing off everyone and everything claiming to bring about natural cures, keep in mind that virtually every synthetic drug that has been manufactured by a pharmaceutical company has been copied from a natural product.

A particular synthetically copied compound is patentable, and therefore a potentially profitable product. Patented drugs, as we all know, are very profitable products. The designs of those drugs, however, originate from something that was created by nature, a non patentable commodity and something that is certainly not very profitable from the petrochemical industry’s perspective.

Because natural health care products are not very profitable for drug makers, their unique abilities to aid the human body in restoring its health have been greatly downplayed by the mainstream news outlets and respected medical journals that are, obviously, controlled by powerful companies having direct ties to the petrochemical industry. Keep in mind that we’re talking about big money here. The ‘$ick Care’ business is worth billions of dollars a year to some very powerful corporations. These powerful companies are not the least bit interested in eradicating extremely profitable diseases while simultaneously promoting naturally occurring compounds that could benefit the members of society.

The truth of the matter is that most diseases occurring today have been designed by very intelligent people in laboratories. Scientists are being paid by truly horrible corporations to screw up the physiological pathways of human beings.

When scientists intentionally create interferences within human physiology, people begin to encounter metabolic and physiological challenges. When the challenges begin showing up in large segments of the population, pharmaceutical companies release the names of diseases that have been previously thought up by marketing teams. The new diseases are promoted throughout the world by mainstream media outlets. Once a named disease has been identified and embraced by health care consumers, the petrochemical companies release an already patented synthetic drug that will manage, not cure, the various symptoms associated with a given physiological challenge.

The way the system works is actually quite ingenious. The malevolent corporations have been stepping up the pace of their assaults on the public every year. More physiological pathways are being interfered with than ever before. This is being accomplished when unknowing subjects use or consume products/foods that have been purposely attenuated by secondary companies that are owned or have close associations with petrochemical corporations.

Our foodstuffs have been genetically modified; laced with toxic ingredients; inundated with antibiotics and contaminated by other processes that will ultimately cause various forms of interference to human physiology. The result of people using so many of these products is the proliferation of new diseases and an increase in the production of toxic drugs by pharmaceutical companies that are then marketed to health care consumers worldwide.

In the meantime, natural cures, natural health professions and any modalities that don’t promote the agenda of placing synthetic poisons inside human beings are constantly attacked by representatives of the petrochemical industry and made to look unscientific and fraudulent.

In reality, there are many natural products in existence that don’t predispose individuals to the toxic and deadly consequences associated with taking synthetically manufactured drugs. The products I am writing about are able to, naturally, remove many interferences to certain physiological pathways that preclude the body from expressing a proper level of health. Once the interferences are removed, a more natural expression of health follows.

Because many natural products eliminate artificially created diseases and actually get sick people well, it’s highly unlikely we will ever see them, or anything that supports such a paradigm, promoted by the mainstream media or traditional, allopathic medicine.

The title of this article asks the question, “Do natural cures really exist?” The answer to that question is, yes! But don’t expect to see them advertised or reported on by the local, evening news.

Debunking the Debunkers!

Posted in Health with tags , , on February 21, 2013 by Dr. John Reizer

Throughout the Medical Establishment’s long history of trying to damage the credibility of the chiropractic profession, debunking agents or so called “experts” have been hired by the “powers that be” to make chiropractic and its practitioners appear to look like quacks. The agents have given interviews, written books, constructed websites, and participated in other campaigns that directly reached healthcare consumers and helped to create false perceptions, for people, about chiropractic.

The funding of these campaigns has come from giant petrochemical corporations. It is very difficult to point fingers and name names because, obviously, paid shills are not going to admit to the fact that they’re on the payroll of a specific company, working to undermine or destroy chiropractic. It’s important to understand that chiropractic is not the only alternative healthcare profession that has been attacked.

Debunking agents are presently used everyday and in many different ways. Pretty much anything that challenges the accepted norms of what society perceives as being reality would be considered fair-game by these people.  For example, if a large minority of the population began to suddenly question the authenticity of something that was being reported by the government or the mainstream media, debunking agents, employed by the powers that be, are always ready to spring into action. These  individuals, through the implementation of strategic campaigns, can absolutely minimize the damage being caused by the controversial voice within the population base. The agents can make sure that the majority of the population continues to perceive reality the way that the government or media originally intended. For the purpose of this article, I’ll only discuss this topic as it pertains to healthcare and more specifically, chiropractic.

Giant petrochemical companies have a lot at stake in this very lucrative game. In order for these companies to remain profitable and powerful in the future, society must continue to believe in certain erroneous concepts. Petrochemical companies have many assets besides pharmaceutical companies. The drug industry is not their only concern, but it remains a very important part of their power base.

Alternative healthcare has always been a threat to the Medical Establishment. Because of this, it has been an important goal of traditional medicine to employ scientists and other professionals that could appear credible when attempting to write or convey damaging remarks about a particular modality or profession within the framework of alternative healthcare.

Quite a few websites have been designed to make potential viewers wary of chiropractic and other alternative healthcare services. It becomes easy to spot the disingenuous web addresses once you know what you’re looking for. The paid shills, writing for “Big Pharma,” usually copy and repeat the same misinformation on different web locations. Their posts are commonly read on many blogs where alternative health related concepts have been published and are threatening mainstream dogma.

The oldest trick in the book (and all the chiropractic debunkers use this tactic) is to claim traditional chiropractic (vertebral subluxation correction) has not undergone scientific, double blind studies and is therefore not a valid healthcare science.

To begin to understand how totally flawed double-blind studies are, when applied to the traditional chiropractic model, you have to first understand what these tests are actually trying to accomplish. Double blind studies have been designed to test the effectiveness of different drugs on patients. What the double blind studies are really testing is the effectiveness of a drug’s ability to cover up or block symptoms in the human body.

As I have previously explained in many of the books and articles I have authored; symptoms are not caused by a disease process but rather by the body’s immune system in an attempt to disable a disease process. An example of this is the body’s expression of a common fever. The fever that takes place during a bacterial or viral infection is attempting to destroy the microbe making the person ill. The double-blind study is, actually, measuring how effective a certain drug is in preventing the body from working as it should. If we used, for example, the fever scenario in a double-blind study, we would have to administer samples of medications to several patients that had fevers. Both the patients and the persons administering the drugs would be blind to which samples were the fever reducing drugs and which samples were sugar pills or placebos. The study would examine how effective certain samples were in reducing fever—the desired effect coming from the drug.

While double blind studies might be useful when it comes to measuring how well drugs are harming the overall health of an individual, they are a totally unreliable ruler when used to measure the effectiveness of a chiropractic adjustment being administered to a patient for the purpose of correcting a vertebral subluxation that is choking off the nervous system’s ability to express health in a human being!

Traditional straight chiropractic has nothing to do with addressing or blocking symptoms. Traditional chiropractic seeks to eliminate the cause of a serious problem by removing a major interference from the nervous system. This translates into a very beneficial result for the person involved however, the results would be impossible to measure through a double blind study. The double-blind study could never be applied to the traditional chiropractic model because these studies are only valuable when measuring changes in symptoms. Unfortunately, that’s what most of traditional medicine is about. It has the objective of covering up certain effects associated with health conditions and never addresses the causes.

By virtue of the double-blind study, science has already proven that medicine, and the drugs it utilizes, is most effective in blocking the body’s natural abilities to fight off diseases. This is why traditional medicine has never cured one single disease!

Once you eliminate the double blind study argument, the skeptics/shills writing the propaganda on various websites begin to point out that chiropractic should be classified as a pseudoscience because the profession’s practitioners have dangerous ideas about conventional medical theories. On this point I would definitely agree with the debunkers. Many chiropractic practitioners have routinely pointed out a lot of large holes in the Medical Establishment’s protocols for the management of various diseases. This is a dangerous scenario for the medical profession.

Some dangerous chiropractic ideas, according to the debunkers, that I can think of right off the top of my head are anti-vaccination and anti-fluoridation campaigns. Chiropractors have had lots to say about the dangers associated with vaccines and water fluoridation. Both of these practices are very controversial and can, in the opinions of many healthcare professionals worldwide, cause irreparable damage to the human immune system.

My advice to prospective patients that stumble upon anti-chiropractic websites, and other related literature, is to realize that this type of content is being purposely placed in the public domain, by the Medical Establishment, to make healthcare consumers believe that chiropractic and many forms of alternative healthcare are based on pseudo-scientific principles.

Chiropractic is a fully licensed form of healthcare in all fifty states. Government agencies wouldn’t license healthcare professionals if their professional objectives were based on unscientific principles!

The Secret Government

In order to understand the power that really shapes world politics and its related effects on human beings, it is necessary to shed light on a governing construct which prefers shadows and secrecy over transparency and the light of day. A construct which continues to play an important role in world events, this governing body is neither elected nor is it a true representative group for the global population that inhabits planet earth.

The construct is made up of a group of people that are spiritually challenged and not properly connected with their own Higher Self.  In more simple terms, these people are overwhelmed by selfishness, greed and power. Their ambitions are centered on trying to control the world’s governments as well as the world at large. These people do not respect the wishes or ideals of any sovereign territories on this planet. Their basic game is to control the world and to serve their own interests and values that are genuinely selfish to the very core. It is doubtful that the vast majority of people comprehend the breadth of their power and cruelty.

Some of the shocking activities attributed to this group include regularly orchestrating assassinations of world leaders; controlling and manipulating the world financial system; maintaining and controlling intelligence agencies of all countries; cultivating and distributing illegal drugs to desired locations throughout the world, and the funding of black operations for secret government programs that are attached to many world venues. They’re obviously involved in other fun activities and the list is far too long to include in such a short article.

The group I am writing about is known by some as the Illuminati – the enlightened ones. They are, in essence, representatives or instruments of the ultimate “Black Brotherhood” on Earth. Many of these people have great financial wealth and hold positions of extraordinary political power. They have created a secret government that has been involved in some of the biggest cover ups in the history of this planet. The scariest thing is that, to a large extent, their deceitfulness has been very successful. They are the slave masters of planet Earth and we are their property. At least that is how they view the playing field.

It is time for global citizens to wake up, reclaim their power and governments so that they can be represented fairly. People must begin to become less apathetic and disconnect from the many disingenuous news sources that continue to deceive the public and spread global lies. World citizens must also disconnect from the fake religious organizations that pretend to spread spirituality while actually disconnecting many of us from true spiritual ascension. Only then will humanity be able to shine a light on this deceitful, shadow group that has been in control for far too long.

Traditional Chiropractic vs. Traditional Medicine

Posted in Health with tags , , , , on January 25, 2013 by Dr. John Reizer

reizer3Traditional chiropractic and medicine have different professional objectives. The profession of chiropractic has the ultimate goal of maintaining a person’s health by removing a type of interference to the nervous system which inhibits the true expression of health in all human beings (vertebral subluxations).

The profession of medicine attempts to cure various diseases that are affecting the body by prescribing certain medications that reverse or oppose physiological processes occurring in the body and also through the application of surgical procedures which attempt to remove or repair compromised human tissues.

Traditional chiropractic has a vitalistic philosophy which adheres to the premise that health comes from within the body or from the inside out. This philosophy acknowledges the fact that all human beings have inherent abilities to maintain their own healthy existence and that a disruption of health is caused internally. Traditional chiropractic states that if health is lost from within the body it must logically be restored from the inside out.

Medicine has a different philosophy that claims that the human body is weak and must constantly have its health maintained from the outside in. According to modern medicine, a human being must have an assortment of vaccines and other preventive medicinal compounds in order to build up the immune system.

In summary, traditional chiropractic works with the controlling laws of nature and physiology while organized medicine (allopathy) attempts to go against the controlling laws of nature and physiology.

The Innate Logic of Human Physiology

Posted in Health with tags , , on January 13, 2013 by Dr. John Reizer

By Dr. John Reizer

Editor at NoFakeNews.net

reizer3All living things have very unique abilities to be able to adapt to their ever-changing environments. If you think about this for a moment, you will soon realize how amazing life, on our little planet, really is.

Imagine, in your mind’s eye, an acorn landing in a field of grass. It becomes naturally embedded in the ground. It receives sunlight and rain and within a short period of time it becomes a tiny sapling. As the years pass, the sapling will grow larger and eventually will mature into a massive, fully grown oak tree that will begin to produce and drop its own acorns. The oak tree is able to survive the toughest elements that are featured in each of the changing seasons. It does all of this, on its own, without a brain. How can this be? The answer is that an acorn and an oak tree both contain an inner wisdom, an inborn intelligence, which allows it to grow and survive in its immediate environment. All living things have this inner wisdom that allows life to flourish.

As people, we witness examples of the body’s inner wisdom on a regular basis. Think about how we eat and digest our food without consciously paying attention to the complex biochemical processes that are involved in accomplishing this task. The human physiology has to break down the food, absorb and assimilate the nutrients, and prepare the leftovers for elimination. We don’t have to sit in a room, after eating a large meal, and attempt to figure out the proper amount of chemicals that are necessary to successfully carryout this very important physiological process.

There are also many other examples of this intelligence that we can observe on a daily basis. The ability of the human eye to adapt and change its point of focus on a given object, in just a few seconds, so that we are able to perceive the surrounding environment in a very clear and unobstructed manner is accomplished through the body’s intelligence. We don’t have to consciously think about calculating the different distances for various objects we encounter so that we can see things properly. The body inherently accomplishes this and other amazing feats twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week.

The human immune system constantly attempts to keep us healthy by making biochemical adjustments, every few seconds, as we encounter regularly changing conditions in both our internal and external environments.

A viral or bacterial microbe that has, temporarily, imposed its will on a living being is no match for the immune system. The inborn intelligence of the body immediately begins to scan the foreign organism for weaknesses and then launches a plan of attack to disable or destroy the offending invader.

In many situations, bacterial and viral microbes are weakened and disabled through heat. The immune system recognizes this fact and begins to create an environment, a fever, which is conducive for returning the body back to a state of proper health. Very often, people make poor healthcare decisions and attempt to interfere with the intelligent decisions of human physiology. How many individuals do you know that have taken an aspirin, or another drug, in an attempt to lower a fever or to minimize some other annoying symptom? You probably know quite a few folks that have done this – maybe even you!

Just the other day, I was watching television and viewed a drug commercial about a product that was designed to break up mucus in the airway passages. This drug is an expectorant and it works by thinning out the mucus in the chest and other portions of the body. At first glance, this might seem like a good thing. After all, it produces the desired effect (relief) that a person suffering with congestion might want. But if we truly understood how smart the human body was, we would rarely interfere with what it is trying to accomplish.

In the case of thinning out mucus in our body, we have to first understand that the inborn intelligence in a human being has a good reason for doing the things it does. The body doesn’t create thick amounts of copious mucus just for the hell of it. In many situations, the body wants to conceal an active infection or sequester it from other body areas so that it won’t spread and do additional damage. After the immune system successfully destroys the threatening infection, it will reduce the thick mucus in the chest and allow the remnants to be coughed up and expelled. Keep in mind, this is allowed only after the infection has been neutralized.

The problem with taking the expectorant is that the product interferes with the immune system and allows the consolidated and sequestered infection to be released through the entire body while it is still active and dangerous. This is not a good thing even though it might temporarily give the person some minor relief from the annoying symptoms associated with congestion and an unproductive cough.

Most symptoms, associated with colds/influenza, and signs of disease are nothing more than intelligent attempts by the immune system to rid the body of harmful invaders. Unfortunately, the educated minds of most people, in society, have been programmed with misinformation when it comes to understanding issues regarding health and wellbeing. A lot of our understanding about health and disease has come directly from giant petrochemical corporations (drug companies) that have a vested interest in keeping you and I sick throughout our entire lives. The products that these companies produce do not cure people from various diseases. Instead, the products block, in a number of ways, the attempts of the immune system from fighting off and curing problems that are challenging our overall health.

Millions of Americans are walking around the planet with a condition known as hypertension (elevated blood pressure). If you ask the average person about hypertension, they’ll explain to you that high blood pressure is a disease process. They will tell you this because this is what they have been taught by pharmaceutical companies and doctors that have been taught the same nonsense. This misinformation is repeatedly taught at medical schools, which utilize textbooks that have been written by scientists and employees that work for pharmaceutical companies. We are a society filled with repeaters. We keep repeating the same things over and over again without any understanding of what we are repeating!

Hypertension is not a disease! It is a physiological adaptive process which forces blood to reach areas of the body that are not getting adequate blood supplies. The inborn intelligence of the body automatically elevates blood pressure so that people won’t die from a stroke or a heart attack. Strokes and heart attacks are caused from an inadequate amount of blood to the brain or heart. They are not caused from blood pressure being too high. Very often, strokes and heart attacks will occur because the amount of blood, going to the heart and brain, is insufficient despite the body’s attempts to raise blood pressure.

The common protocol to treat patients suffering with hypertension is to place the individuals on medications that will prevent the body’s inborn intelligence from raising blood pressure. The drugs actually interfere with the nervous system (they disrupt communication between the brain and other portions of the body) so that the blood pressure cannot be elevated even though it really needs to be raised in order to get a sufficient amount of blood to vital organs and body tissues.

Years ago, a “normal” systolic blood pressure reading was widely accepted by the medical community as being 100 + your age. In other words, if you were 75 years old you should have had a systolic blood pressure reading of 175. If you were 40 years old you should have had a systolic blood pressure reading of 140. Systolic blood pressure is a measurement of the blood pressure when the heart is beating. The other measurement, the bottom number, is known as diastolic blood pressure and is a measurement of the blood pressure when the heart is relaxed. Under the old system, a person that was 80 years old would be considered to have a “normal” blood pressure if they produced a reading of 180/80. By today’s standards, the same individual would be classified as hypertensive and be prescribed anti-hypertensive medications.

Most medical organizations today agree that a “normal” blood pressure reading should be at 115/75. Anything above this level would be classified as hypertension. How convenient this change, in calculating a “normal” blood pressure, has been for the petrochemical corporations. Their profits originating from selling anti-hypertensive medicines have skyrocketed while people’s blood pressures have plummeted along with their health.

In all likelihood, the official organizations that conducted the so called “scientific studies” that led to the change in how “normal” blood pressures are calculated were, most likely, heavily influenced by the petrochemical corporations. By lowering “normal blood pressure values” it instantly placed millions of people into a hypertensive category and suggested they be placed on anti-hypertensive medications for the rest of their lives.

The important point that I want my readers to understand is that all living human beings have an inner wisdom that constantly strives to keep them alive and well. This intelligence never sleeps, never takes a day off from the job, and will be with them for as long as they are alive.

Your own innate intelligence always knows what’s best for your body, at any particular time of the day, and it is always operating through the very important pathway that ultimately keeps you healthy – the human nervous system!

Chiropractic: It’s Not Risky Business According to Insurance Companies

reizer3If you listen to some of the propaganda that is delivered through the mainstream media, you might develop the general perception that chiropractic is a dangerous profession. You need to keep remembering that media campaigns are designed to fool laypersons so that they do not buy into alternative healthcare philosophies. Everything must be authenticated by the mainstream gatekeepers for it to be considered valid and safe for public consumption.

Once again, the reality of the situation is often different than what most people perceive the situation to be. According to insurance actuaries (people who calculate the level of risk in an insurance policy), the practice of traditional chiropractic is one of the safest healthcare professions in the world. Many doctors of chiropractic pay only a few hundred dollars a year to secure their professional liability policies. On the other side of the coin, many medical healthcare practitioners pay hundreds of thousands of dollars during the course of a single year just so they can have liability coverage.

Many medically backed agencies have disingenuously posed as consumer watch groups. These agencies have repeatedly painted the chiropractic adjustment as a dangerous procedure. Considering that within the last fifty years only a minimal number of patient injuries have been attributed to chiropractic procedures and that insurance premiums for chiropractic liability policies are the lowest of any primary healthcare providers, it is almost laughable that organized medicine is able to continuously suggest that chiropractic is a direct threat to the safety of the American healthcare consumer.

In August of 1987, the American Medical Association, the American College of Radiologists, and the American College of Surgeons were all found guilty of conspiring to eliminate the profession of chiropractic by Federal Judge Susan Getzendanner of the United States District court. (Wilk et al v. AMA et al, No. 90-542 a record of public information) Because traditional medicine, with the help of other organizations, attempted to destroy another competitive healthcare profession, a high level of skepticism should be used by laypersons when reading anti-chiropractic literature originating from traditional medical sources.

Strangely enough, most people were never made aware of the fact that there was a conspiracy against chiropractic and that organized medicine was responsible for designing the entire plot. It is the common belief of many chiropractors that very heavily funded anti-chiropractic campaigns are still being launched today, behind the scenes, by organized medicine.

The chiropractic adjustment is one of the best kept secrets within the entire healthcare industry. If traditional medicine and the pharmaceutical industry continue to have their way, the chiropractic adjustment will most likely remain a secret indefinitely.
