It's no secret that Big Pharma is fueled by profit, often putting business interests ahead of patients' lives and well-being. And North American culture practically worships the pharmaceutical industry, failing to recognize many of the issues within it.

Many Americans are completely unaware that new prescription drugs have a 1 in 5 chance of causing serious reactions, even after being approved, or that Harvard University stated that prescription drugs are the fourth leading cause of death. We're not talking overdosing or misprespcribing; these are drugs that are deemed safe and properly prescribed to patients who simply have an adverse reaction to them.

Despite these facts, people take the risks of pharmaceuticals very lightly, turning to them when they're sick only to provide a "bandaid" effect, covering up the symptoms rather than treating and preventing the root cause. The public isn't entirely to blame for their ignorance; Big Pharma paints a perfect image of themselves, making false claims and highlighting the "benefits" of drugs while minimizing the potential risks associated with them (or printing them in extremely small font sizes).

Your lymphatic system likes sunsets and long walks on the beach. Are you ready to take it out? Because that's the best way to cleanse it.

The Lymphatic System

Lymph is a colorless liquid in the human body that contains white blood cells, covers your bodily tissues and drains into the bloodstream through a network of vessels that form the lymphatic system. It sounds pretty complex, but cleansing the lymphatic system is much easier than you think.

Regularly cleansing this system is also important because this system helps to remove toxins and waste from your body. You will want to keep this system in tip top shape.

No need for complex exercises, intensive massages, detoxification protocols, New Age therapies or any other costly, peculiar solution. Simply go for a 20 to 30 minute vigorous walk. That's all there is to it!

The sun has got his hat on, our moods feel lighter and we are gripped by a desire to soak up some solar rays. But no, we keep being told: the threat of skin cancer makes this potentially lethal.

Now, however, scientists are discovering a positive side to sun-worshipping. Getting a good dose of sunshine is statistically going to make us live longer, healthier and happier lives.

Emerging research indicates that sunlight may protect us against a wide range of lethal or disabling conditions, such as obesity, heart attacks, strokes, asthma, and multiple sclerosis. Sunshine has also been shown to boost our libidos and general mood.

Anybody can cook, even if it's only a fried egg - but not just anyone has the discipline to fast. This ancient practice of abstaining from eating for a day, or sometimes even a week or more has a history of curing a whole host of health problems, but even a brief fast can completely re-boot your immune system.

This practice isn't without criticism by modern nutritionists and unbelievers, but research implies that when the body is hungry in short spurts, it can kick-start stem cells into producing new white blood cells.

White blood cells, also known as leukocytes, are the cells which the immune system uses to fight against foreign invaders like viruses and bad bacteria.

Scientists at the University of Southern California found that fasting could be particularly beneficial for people suffering from damaged immune systems, such as cancer patients on chemotherapy, or people with auto-immune disorders.

It's bad enough when pregnant mothers get vaccinated, but now Big Pharma wants to take vaccination to a whole new level. Instead of just vaccinating mothers-to-be, the industry wants to be able to inject unborn babies with their latest concoctions, too.

The 21st Century Cures Act is poised to pass any day now. While this legislation claims to bring medicine into the 21st century, it honestly seems intended to do the exact opposite. Instead of looking forward to new horizons, this bill would merely double down on conventional methods that have been in use for decades. The 21st Century Cures bill managed to pass the House last year, and after being broken up into smaller sections by the Senate, is set to see approval any day now.

One of the more concerning aspects of this bill lies in the Senate bill S. 2742 (the Promoting Biomedical Research and Public Health for Patients Act), which appears to be laying down the groundwork for amending the current vaccination schedule to include expectant mothers and their still-developing, unborn children. This particular provision contains the following language:

Notwithstanding any other provision of law, for purposes of this subtitle, both a woman who received a covered vaccine while pregnant and any child who was in utero at the time such woman received the vaccine shall be considered persons to whom the covered vaccine was administered and persons who received the covered vaccine.

The drink was linked to shrinkage in the hippocampus, an area critical for memory and other mental functions.

Even moderate levels of alcohol consumption are linked to long-term brain damage and declines in mental skills, new research finds. Moderate alcohol intake means around 14 to 21 units per week.

The study also found no support for the idea that low levels of alcohol intake are beneficial for the brain. The conclusions come from a British study of 550 healthy men and women followed over 30 years.

One in 4 Americans (and 1 in 3 millennials) reports knowing someone addicted to opioids,¹ and recent statistics reveal driving under the influence of these and other drugs has become a serious problem, now causing more fatal car crashes than drunk driving.²

Many who go on to develop an addiction to opioids start out merely seeking relief from their aches and pains. Back pain is a leading cause of opioid use, but many also get hooked on these potent painkillers after receiving a prescription following a sports injury or a minor surgical procedure such as a tooth extraction.

Little did they know the painkiller they were taking would lead them down such a dark and troublesome path. For years, drug makers misled doctors and patients about the addictive nature of their narcotic painkillers. As it turns out, opioids are highly addictive and have become the No. 1 gateway drug to heroin.

While the rising death toll from opioid overdoses has received much-needed attention in the last couple of years, another related problem is now surfacing. Millions of people are driving under the influence of opioids, yet law enforcement has few reliable tools to identify drugged driving, or for measuring opioids and other drugs in someone suspected of driving under the influence.

Drugged Driving Is a Leading Cause of Fatal Car Crashes

According to a report ^3,4,5 compiled by the Governors Highway Safety Association and the Foundation for Advancing Alcohol Responsibility, prescription and/or illegal drugs were involved in 43 percent of fatal car crashes in 2015, while 37 percent involved illegal amounts of alcohol. The findings highlight an urgent need for law enforcement training in identifying drug-impaired driving. As reported in the Chicago Tribune:⁶

Aside from the looming threat of the loss of medical freedom in regards to vaccination, what should truly frighten parents is the fact that there has never been a single safety study conducted on the inter-relationship between multiple vaccines, nor has there ever been a single safety study as far as the combination of ingredients in the vaccines themselves.

The medical industry, pediatricians, and unsuspecting parents are blindly trusting the CDC's assertions of safety. And while we are discussing frightening matters, it should also be noted that neither the CDC nor the FDA can prove the safety of the current vaccine schedule. For further information, check out this link.

Mandatory vaccination laws are already a reality in states like California and Mississippi, and it has never been more dire for parents to understand the shocking ingredients in those vaccine vials. As advocates for our children, it is our job to be fully educated on matters that affect their health.

After all, every parent of a vaccine-injured child was once pro-vaccination.

After a lead scientist at the EPA published damning information exposing the neurotoxicity of fluoride, an unprecedented lawsuit could now end fluoridation.

Despite the overwhelming mass of scientific literature and studies showing the harmful effects of ingesting fluoride, those who question it or advocate for the cessation of fluoridated water are labeled as kooks, conspiracy theorists, and shouted down by the mainstream. Even when the mainstream admits it — as in the case of the highly publicized Harvard Study — people remain in denial about this most horrific practice of mass medication without consent using the poisonous byproduct of fertilizer production.

However, all that appears to be changing. For the first time in US history, the courts will hear the evidence on the neurotoxicity of fluoridated water which could out an end to this practice once and for all.
