For many centuries, the Chinese used snake oil as a treatment for joint pain, arthritis, and bursitis. They brought this folk remedy with them when they arrived in the US in the mid-1800's to build the Transcontinental Railroad. That was backbreaking work. Synthetic pain-killers such as aspirin were not yet freely available. When the Chinese workers offered their remedy to Westerners as a palliative it was likely perceived to be a "primitive" form of "quackery" by the medical experts of that time. This is one probable origin of the derogatory meaning of the word "snake oil." On the other hand, the word "quack" as used today came from the German word for "quicksilver," namely: "quecksilber" It is believed that American dentists shortened it to "quack" to describe the amalgam-hucksters. Quick-silver Associates write "It is sobering to realize that the original "quacks" were dentists who advocated the use of mercury amalgam." Learn more on this topic by reading "Quacks, Quack Doctors, and Quackery."
Perhaps the most ironic thing about modern pharmaceutical "snake oil," i.e. petrochemical-derived and patented synthetic chemicals, is that they often have considerably less value than a placebo, and in certain cases may not even compare in therapeutic value to actual snake oil. And that is over and above the fact that their safety is many orders of magnitude lower, with pharmaceuticals known to kill well over 100,000 patients each year in the U.S. even when correctly prescribed.
Even though it can be annoying to fill tissue after tissue with globs of snot and gooey discharge when you have a cold or sinus infection, your body needs mucus. Believe it or not, mucus serves a specific purpose and you need a certain amount of it to be healthy. Furthermore, the color and consistency of your mucus is part of the way your body lets you know what's going on inside. Here's what you need to know about mucus.
Mucus Plays a Vital Role Within Your Body
Your body is filled with mucus-producing tissue. More specifically, mucus is naturally occurring in the following areas of your body:
- Gastrointestinal tract
- Lungs
- Mouth
- Nose
- Sinuses
- Throat

Our results, as far as we know, are the first to demonstrate that triclosan can promote the colonic inflammation and associated colon cancer in mice. This study suggests that health authorities must reassess regulation of triclosan for its effect on human health. That's key because it is impossible to avoid contact with this chemical.

According to research presented at the European Congress on Obesity in Vienna on May 23rd 2018, 22 percent of people in the world will be obese by 2045, up from 14 percent last year. One in eight people, up from one in 11, will have type 2 diabetes. In the United States, the researchers found obesity will increase from 39 percent of the population in 2017 to 55 percent in 2045, and diabetes from 14 percent to 18 percent. In Britain, the proportion will swell from 32 percent to 48 percent, with the incidence of diabetes rising from 10.2 percent to 12.6 percent.
A team of researchers obtained these from a World Health Organization database with population data for all countries in the world. They divided the population of each country into age groups and further into body mass index (BMI) categories, looking at trends to make projections.
BMI is a ratio of height to weight used to divide people into low- to high-risk categories for developing heart disease, high blood pressure, type 2 diabetes and certain cancers. A person with a BMI of 25 or more is considered overweight, and 30 or higher obese. A healthy BMI ranges from 18.5 to 24.9.
However, contrary to popular belief and its very definition, BMI doesn't detect people who are at most risk for developing cardiovascular disease and other chronic diseases such as diabetes. This is why doctors have guidelines that ignore BMI. In this article we'll learn why and the implications.
Natural medicine was once the only medicine. It wasn't considered "an alternative." That only happened much later, after synthetically produced, patent drugs came onto the scene, and profit and not safety and efficacy became the ultimate priority.
For example, check out this amazing 1930's pharmacist's map of 'herbal cures" recently released to the public. As you can see, most "drugs" in the United States were not too long ago extracted from botanicals.
So, given where we are today (natural substances are feared and synthetic drugs revered) how do we de-marginalize the most ancient, food, herb and mind-body based methods of healing?
The researchers have demonstrated that small rises in temperature (such as during a fever) speed up the speed of a cellular 'clock' that controls the response to infections - and this new understanding could lead to more effective and fast-working drugs which target a key protein involved in this process.
As DW reports, as part of Bayer's agreement with US antitrust enforcers, the German firm will be required to divest some $9 billion in assets. Regulators said they directed Bayer to sell off its entire cotton, canola, soybean and vegetable seeds businesses, as well as its digital farming business. It will also sell its Liberty herbicide, which competes directly with Monsanto's product RoundUp.
Prior to this sell off of assets, government regulators voiced their fears that the merger of these two companies would hamper competition and be a detriment to both farmers and consumers. Although Bayer's asset sales were the largest divestiture ever required by the United States, some concerns over this monopoly are still alive, and rightfully so.
Though Bayer established its reputation for the invention of aspirin, a more nefarious incident involving an HIV-contaminated drug to be administered to children suffering from hemophilia proved the corporation's practices aren't as noble as it would have the public believe.
But, in the U.S., one lone senator stands apart - demanding that these obvious health risks be tackled head-on before the rolling out of an even more potent network tech (5g) gets rolled out nation-wide.
Michigan state senator Patrick Colbeck (R-Canton) took to the Senate floor to address the risks of wireless tech, and to urge his colleagues to vote against a set of bills which would hasten its expansion. Is it really that hard to convince people to exercise caution when heading down an unknown road?

Perhaps the biggest sham of all then, is the fact that such a greedy, careless industry has been able to dupe so many people into not only believing in the drugs that they sell, but to completely disregard any and all adverse effects caused by their medications. The pharmaceutical deception is so great that anyone who even dares to speak out about the ill effects caused by medications (especially psych meds) is slammed as a conspiracy theorist.
Magic pills or profits for the shills?
The truth is that over 1,500 incidents of "psychotropic drug-induced homicidal ideation" have been reported to the FDA's MedWatch program - and if the FDA estimates only 10 percent of adverse events are actually disclosed, you can imagine that a lot more people are out there struggling than Big Pharma and their puppets would ever care to admit.
