Alzheimer's rate increasing? Nah a wild conspiracy.

[Phtha]

Now what was this thread about again?....
Oh yah, Alzheimer's disease rate increase not being a conspiracy.
Or is it?

"Kelleher points to a 9,000 percent increase in the domestic diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease since 1979. That year, according to statistics from the Centers for Disease Control, 653 people died of Alzheimer's disease in the United States. Twenty-three years later, in 2002, 58,785 people died of Alzheimer's. To him, it's an increase that cannot be explained simply by an aging population and advanced diagnosis techniques."

Due to lots of research, I'm personally convinced that, like every other disease that has increased many times over in the last 20 years or so, the direct cause is chemicals put in our foods and water, as well
as a lack of essential minerals and vitamins, and to a lesser degree proper exercise.

We would be perfectly healthy and disease free if we were to eat properly.
Which would collapse the established "health?care" industry and put many doctors out of work.
To bad this fact is more important to people then real health and indeed life itself.

In 1981, Reagan appointed Arthur Hull Hayes as FDA commissioner. Citing data from a Japanese study that had not been available to the members of the PBOI[citation needed], Hayes approved aspartame for use in dry goods.[12] In 1983, the FDA further approved aspartame for use in carbonated beverages, and for use in other beverages, baked goods, and confections in 1993. In 1996, the FDA removed all restrictions from aspartame allowing it to be used in all foods.

Among the many ironies of our modern world is that Gerald Ford awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom-America,s highest civilian honor-to Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld on January 19, 1977. Just a few weeks later on March 8, Rumsfeld became the CEO of G.D. Searle to take point on a mission to force the Food and Drug Administration to approve for human consumption a known carcinogen and neurotoxic poison.

Mission accomplished: Today some 9,000 commonly consumed products are laced with this weapon of mass misery and millions of people live with chronic illnesses linked to the artificial sweetener aspartame. It is our belief at The Idaho Observer that if some guy named Parkinson can have a disease named after him, then Donald Rumsfeld ought to have his own disease, too. Hence the term Rumsfeld disease A.

Aspartame - Rumsfeld's Bioweapon Legacy





James Bowen, M.D., said, .."Aspartame is a potent chelating agent. The FDA told the manufacturers 30 years ago, that this fact alone would never allow Aspartame's approval for human beings, because it rapidly chelates the heavy metal poisons from any metal or ceramic container it is poured into, and carries the metal right into the body. Because they are in chelated form, those heavy metal poisons are highly adsorbed from the digestive tract. Aluminum is not absorbed from the digestive tract unless it is chelated. My friends, who deliver pop and service pop machines, tell me that sugar pop never eats its way through the cans. It is only the aspartame pop that chelates its way through the aluminum can and makes a mess. Billions of cans of aspartame pop, full of toxic chelated aluminum are consumed every year. Is it any wonder that we are seeing an epidemic of Alzheimer's disease?"



A hospice nurse, Susan Laird, called in l995 to say Alzheimer patients being admitted were as young as 30 years old. She reported she had 6 friends who were Diet Coke addicts and they all had been diagnosed with MS, beyond coincidence. A nurse from California during the Olympics reported she was a friend of someone in the manufacturers family and they tell all their friends not to use aspartame because it causes Alzheimers. My friend Kathy, whose ex-husband worked for Monsanto, said the day he went to work he was told not to use it, its a poison, and that no one in his family was to use it. He also was sent to work with the FDA (showing their close association) and asked them why it had not been removed from the market. He was told, "we approved it, nothing we can do". Then he was sent to work with Searle at which time he quit saying their research was negotiable. This is interesting since ILSI, the research front group, is a spin off of the NSDA.

My husband and I stopped in St. Louis on the way to New Mexico and were giving out warning flyers. A lady on our flight mentioned her mother rented a room to a physician who told her physicians were warned if they told anyone aspartame causes Alzheimers they would be sued.



PREVALENCE OF ALZHEIMER'S RISES 10% IN 5 YEARS - THE ASPARTAME LINK

Health information on ASPARTAME

WORLD ENVIRONMENTAL CONFERENCE
and the MULTIPLE SCLEROSIS FOUNDATION
F.D.A. ISSUING FOR COLLUSION WITH MONSANTO

Article written by Nancy Markle (1120197)

I have spent several days lecturing at the WORLD ENVIRONMENTAL CONFERENCE on "ASPARTAME marketed as 'NutraSweet', 'Equal', and 'Spoonful"'. In the keynote address by the EPA, they announced that there was an epidemic of multiple sclerosis and systemic lupus, and they did not understand what toxin was causing this to be rampant across the United States.

I explained that I was there to lecture on exactly that subject. When the temperature of Aspartame exceeds 86 degrees F, the wood alcohol in ASPARTAME coverts to formaldehyde and then to formic acid, which in turn causes metabolic acidosis. (Formic acid is the poison found in the sting of fire ants). The methanol toxicity mimics multiple sclerosis; thus people were being diagnosed with having multiple sclerosis in error. The multiple sclerosis is not a death sentence, where methanol toxicity is.

In the case of systemic lupus, we are finding it has become almost as rampant as multiple sclerosis, especially Diet Coke and Diet Pepsi drinkers. Also, with methanol toxicity, the victims usually drink three to four 12 oz. Cans of them per day, some even more. In the cases of systemic lupus, which is triggered by ASPARTAME, the victim usually does not know that the aspartame is the culprit The victim continues its use aggravating the lupus to such a degree, that sometimes it becomes life threatening.

When we get people off the aspartame, those with systemic lupus usually become asymptomatic. Unfortunately, we can not reverse this disease. On the other hand, in the case of those diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis, (when in reality, the disease is methanol toxicity), most of the symptoms disappear. We have seen cases where their vision has returned and even their hearing has returned. This also applies to cases of tinnitus. During a lecture I said "If you are using ASPARTAME (NutraSweet, Equal, Spoonful, etc.) and you suffer from fibromyalgia symptoms, spasms, shooting pains, numbness in your legs, cramps, vertigo, dizziness, headaches, tinnitus, joint pain, depression, anxiety attacks, slurred speech, blurred vision, or memory loss-you probably have ASPARTAME DISEASE!" People were jumping up during the lecture saying, "I've got this, is it reversible?"

It is rampant. Some of the speakers at my lecture even were suffering from these symptoms. In one lecture attended by the Ambassador of Uganda, he told us that their sugar industry is adding aspartame! He continued by saying that one of the industry leader's son could no longer walk - due in part by product usage!

We have a very serious problem. Even a stranger came up to Dr. Espisto (one of my speakers) and myself and said, "Could you tell me why so many people seem to be coming down with MS?" During a visit to a hospice, a nurse said that six of her friends, who were heavy Diet Coke addicts, had all been diagnosed with MS. This is beyond coincidence.

Here is the problem. There were Congressional Hearings when aspartame was included in 100 different products. Since this initial hearing, there have been two subsequent hearings, but to no avail. Nothing as been done. The drug and chemical lobbies have very deep pockets. Now there are over 5,000 products containing this chemical, and the PATENT HAS EXPIRED!!!!! At the time of this first hearing, people were going blind. The methanol in the aspartame converts to formaldehyde in the retina of the eye. Formaldehyde is grouped in the same class of dmgs as cyanide and arsenic- DEADLY POISONS!!! Unfortunately, it just takes longer to quietly kill, but it is killing people and causing all kinds of neurological problems.> Aspartame changes the brain's chemistry. It is the reason for severe seizures. This drug changes the dopamine level in the brain. Imagine what this drug does to patients suffering from Parkinson's Disease. This drug also causes Birth Defects.

There is absolutely no reason to take this product. It is NOT A DIET PRODUCT!!! The Congressional record said, "It makes you crave carbohydrates and will make you FAT". Dr. Roberts stated that when he got patients off aspartame, their average weight loss was 19 pounds per person. The formaldehyde stores in the fat cells, particularly in the hips and thighs.

Aspartame is especially deadly for diabetics. All physicians know what wood alcohol will do to a diabetic. We find that physicians believe that they have patients with retinopathy, when in fact, it is caused by the aspartame. The aspartame keeps the blood sugar level out of control, causing many patients to go into a coma. Unfortunately, many have died. People were telling us at the Conference of the American College of Physicians, that they had relatives that switched from saccharin to an aspartame product and how that relative had eventually gone into a coma. Their physicians could not get the blood sugar levels under control. Thus, the patients suffered acute memory loss and eventually coma and death.

Memory loss is due to the fact that aspartic acid and phenylalanine are neurotoxic without the other amino acids found in protein. Thus it goes past the blood brain barrier and deteriorates the neurons of the brain. Dr. Russell Blaylock, neurosurgeon, said, "The ingredients stimulates the neurons of the brain to death, causing brain damage of varying degrees. Dr. Blaylock has written a book entitled "EXCITOTOXINS: THE TASTE THAT KILLS" (Health Press 1-800-643-2665). Dr. H.J. Roberts, diabetic specialist and world expert on aspartame poisoning, has also written a book entitled "DEFENSE AGAINST ALZHEIMER'S DISEASE" (1-800-814-9800). Dr. Roberts tells how aspartame poisoning is escalating Alzheimer's Disease, and indeed it is. As the hospice nurse told me, women are being admitted at 30 years of age with Alzheimer's Disease. Dr. Blaylock and Dr. Roberts will be writing a position paper with some case histories and will post it on the Internet. According to the Conference of the American College of Physicians, 'We are talking about a plague of neurological diseases caused by this deadly poison".

Dr. Roberts realized what was happening when aspartame was first marketed. He said "his diabetic patients presented memory loss, confusion, and severe vision loss". At the Conference of the American College of Physicians, doctors admitted that they did not know. They had wondered why seizures were rampant (the phenylalanine in aspartame breaks down the seizure threshold and depletes serotonin, which causes manic depression, panic attacks, rage and violence).

Just before the Conference, I received a FAX from Norway, asking for a possible antidote for this poison because they are experiencing so many problems in their country. This "poison" is now available in 90 PLUS countries worldwide. Fortunately, we had speakers and ambassadors at the Conference from different nations who have pledged their help. We ask that you help too.

Print this article out and warn everyone you know. Take anything that contains aspartame black to the store. Take the "NO ASPARTAME TEST" and send us your case history.

I assure you that MONSANTO, the creator of aspartame, knows how deadly it is. They fund the American Diabetes Association, American Dietetic Association, Congress, and the Conference of the American College of Physicians. The New York Times, on November 15, 1996, ran an article on how the American Dietetic Association takes money from the food industry to endorse their products. Therefore, they can not criticize any additives or tell about their link to MONSANTO. How bad is this? We told a mother who had a child on NutraSweet to get off the product. The child was having grand mal seizures every day. The mother called her physician, who called the ADA, who told the doctor not to take the child off the NutraSweet. We are still trying to convince the mother that the aspartame is causing the seizures. Every time we get someone off of aspartame, the seizures stop. If the baby dies, you know whose fault it is, and what we are up against. There are 92 documented symptoms of aspartame, from coma to death. The majority of them are all neurological, because the aspartame destroys the nervous system.

Aspartame Disease is partially the cause to what is behind some of the mystery of the Dessert Storm health problems. The burning tongue and other problems discussed in over 60 cases can be directly related to the consumption of an aspartame product. Several thousand pallets of diet drinks were shipped to the Dessert Storm troops. (Remember heat can liberate the methanol from the aspartame at 86 degrees F). Diet drinks sat in the 120 degree F. Arabian sun for weeks at a time on pallets. The service men and women drank them all day long. All of their symptoms are identical to aspartame poisoning. Dr. Roberts says "consuming aspartame at the time of conception can cause birth defects". The phenylalanine concentrates in the placenta, causing mental retardation, according to Dr. Louis Elsas, Pediatrician Professor - Genetics, at Emory University in his testimony before Congress.

In the original lab tests, animals developed brain tumors (phenylalanine breaks down into DXP, a brain tumor agent). When Dr. Espisto was lecturing on aspartame me, one physician in the audience, a neurosurgeon, said, "when they remove brain tumors, they have found high levels of aspartame in them".

Stevia, a sweet food, NOT AN ADDITIVE, which helps in the metabolism of sugar, which would be ideal for diabetics, has now been approved as a dietary supplement by the F.D.A. For years, the F.D.A. has outlawed this sweet food because of their loyalty to MONSANTO.

If it says "SUGAR FREE" on the label-DO NOT EVEN THINK ABOUT IT!!!!!l! Senator Howard Hetzenbaum wrote a bill that would have wamed all infants, pregnant mothers and children of the dangers of aspartame. The bill would have also instituted independent studies on the problems existing in the population (seizures, changes in brain chemistry, changes in neurological and behavioral symptoms). It was killed by the powerful drug and chemical lobbies, letting loose the hounds of disease and death on an unsuspecting public. Since the Conference of the American College of Physicians, we hope to have the help of some world leaders. Again, please help us too.

There are a lot of people out there who must be warned, *please* let them know this information.

My friend is addicted to Diet Coke.

He got a brain tumor when he was 25.

He had to have it surgically removed.

[UlfFreya]

Here's another interesting bit of information:

I got this from an article about the documentary Under Our Skin.

"One of the brave ones is pathologist Alan Macdonald, who has had to create his own laboratory in his basement to do his research. From years of open-minded hard work, he reports that Lyme may be a biofield disease, which explains why it can be chronic. Analyzing brain tissues of seven people who died of Alzheimer's, he finds all tested positive for Lyme Disease. Those discoveries could have dramatic ramifications for modern medical diagnosis and treatment of more than Lyme."

Hmmmm.

All that tasty Aspartame aside, there is another factor behind the exponential jump in identified cases of Alzheimers.

Alzheimers disease has only been recongnized as such for a few decades. A certified doctor in the 1920s would have lumped it under the catch all "dimentia."

Has there really been an exponential increase in the manifestation of this disease, or are the high numbers the result of better diagnosis and record keeping?

Just a thought . . .

I am pretty sure there was a consistent medical definition for Alzheimer's in 1979 and that doctors were at least somewhat familiar with it.

No reliable statistics exist beyond the 1970s.

Read for yourself:

[Phtha]

The establishment would certainly like us to believe we just got better at detection.
Either way everything has a cause. We don't just develop these diseases for no reason.
All you need to do is look around and see how many people get diseases nowadays. And then look at the ingredients in food, pretty much everyone of those
chemicals that is in 90% of the stuff in the grocery store causes some form or
cancer or other diseases.
1 in 4 people get cancer now? Thats tells you right there something is afoot.

Not to mention there are many old cultures who were completely disease free.
Cancer never existed, teeth didn't rot, the only death was caused by injury or
old age, aside from rare cases.
Look for yourselves.

No it's not that we got better at detection or put new names to things.
Despite what science and his-story tries to tell us, we aren't any smarter
now then we were back then. In fact we've been become technologically advanced but intellectually primitive as a whole.

[burgundia]

I personally know two men in their 70s now, who suffer from Alzheimer's. the third one i knew died a few years ago.

[Morgan]

In my awesome and totally unbiased psych 101 class (ha), it is drawn to our attention that there is a relationship between a disease achieving a label and/or treatment (drug), and the increase in occurrence of that disease or of diagnosing that disease. So...

A disease gets a name = more people have said disease
A disease gets a drug to treat it = more people have said disease

Not sure if either have anything to do with Alzheimer's, but hey.

Also, as evil as aspartame is, it is merely one factor. Take a look at the entire chemical soup we ingest daily be it pesticides, heavy metals, artificial and natural flavours, preservatives, colours, etc. etc. etc. - they all take a toll on ALL body systems and pretty much all of them can be stored in our body fat, to effect us later on or to effect us over time. No one is free of them, we all have this chemical soup in our blood - every single one of us. Even newborns.

If it's not from our food, it's from our water. If not water, the air. If not the air, then it's the things we touch. Breathing, ingesting, contact. Your skin absorbs all kinds of junk. (I read somewhere that if it's not something you would eat, you should definitely not be putting it on your skin! This applies to all skin care products, shampoos, etc!)

I am very glad though that people are aware of the dietary links with basically all maladies.

[Seven]

I somehow feel/believe that dementia and alzheimer is one of 'm ... is a form of escaping the world they live in, for whatever reason ...
I work with demented people, in a nursing home ... and somehow it's like they life in another world, for periods of time ...
If this strikes a chord with anyone, i would like to hear ...




Note: I'am not a dr or brain expert ...
I'm just me, rethinking and trying to comprehend the "problems" in this world ... I check my thinking whith what i feel, or try to put my feelings into words ...

I've heard that Aluminum causes it too, and I believe Chemtrails could be partially to blame.

Also Lyme Disease is considered "the great mimicker" so it could actually be a symptom of Lyme which was created and weaponized on Plum Island.

They sure are trying to step up the population reduction aren't they?

Umm your a little o/t and yes probably 90% of the people know of flouride. And if someone doesn't it does not mean they are dumb.

I just came across this info. I haven't verified it yet but it's worth the read.

Alzheimer's Can Be Stopped-but The
Ortho-Docs Don't Know It

Please pardon the shouting type here, but we must say this as loudly as we can: If you or a friend begins to show any symptoms of Alzheimer's, head straight for an alternative-medicine physician. Do not even think about wasting your time on an establishment 'McDoctor.'

Alzheimer's is a serious condition, now nearing pandemic stages, and you cannot afford to waste time on conventional, white bread physicians who will tell you that you can't prevent it or stop it. We can and we have.

Don't Be Faked Out

It's true that Alzheimer's is a slow-growing disorder. The trouble is, by the time the victim (or his family) admits that it's not just ordinary forgetfulness, it's usually late in the game. So if it's Alzheimer's, you don't have a moment to spare. You must pounce on it promptly.

But how? Extremely few people know that it can be contained, stopped in its tracks...and often reversed. At the Health Sciences Institute, we have recommended a number of non-drug, non-
invasive treatment protocols for Alzheimer's in recent years. Today we would like to present you with the 4 best. Because the matter is so urgent, we are revealing the full names of these remedies in the discussion below.

Dramatic Results at UCLA

A recent press release from neuroscientists at UCLA announced that DHA (docosahexaenoic acid), an omega-3 fatty acid, holds Alzheimer's at bay in mice.

They induced Alzheimer's in several groups of lab mice to the point where they had brain lesions. Half those mice then got a DHA-deficient diet for 5 months. The other half got plenty of DHA. Then they put the mice into a tank of water and trained them to swim to a raised platform in it to rest on. After that, they submerged the platform slightly out of sight, so the mice had to recall where it was...

The DHA-fed mice usually located it with no trouble. But the DHA-deprived mice, more often than not, couldn't find it at all! They swam in circles at the edge of the tank, says a co-author of the study. (Sounds to us like the mouse-world equivalent of not being able to find your car keys.)

* Step One for preventing or stopping Alzheimer's: Go to your health food store and buy a bottle of DHA.
* Step Two for preventing or stopping Alzheimer's: Go to a local health food store and get some alpha-lipoic acid capsules. ALA is widely recognized as the king of antioxidants. So even if you aren't in any danger of mental decline, it will still do you good in dozens of ways. Here's the proof...

They Stopped the Enemy
at the Rhine

At German universities in Hannover, Wurzburg, and Leipzig, researchers took another major step ahead in the fight against Alzheimer's in 2000.

They gave 600 mg a day of ALA (alpha-lipoic acid) to 9 human subjects (average age, 67) with Alzheimer's. After 337 days, the extremely encouraging results: None of the patients showed any decline in that time. Now, this isn't a huge number of subjects, but if you've ever had to watch a loved one sinking with Alzheimer's for a year, you know that's an incredible outcome. No drug on the market today has done that.

Moreover, they weren't guessing-they tested before and after with Germanic precision, using the standard MMSE and the cognitive subscale ADASCog (Alzheimer's Disease Assessment Scale). The results are real.

Going Beyond Stability to
Marked Improvement

The reason you are able to read this is that you have healthy quantities of a neurotransmitter called acetylcholine throughout your brain.

But if you develop Alzheimer's, that acetylcholine declines and gets broken down rapidly by an enzyme called acetylcholinesterase (AChE). Bad news. Soon thereafter, you start to punctuate conversations with, 'Let's see, what was I talking about?' And it's downhill from there.

However, in the late '80s, a research team found that Huperzine-A, an extract of the ancient Chinese herb Huperzia serrata, easily goes through the blood-brain barrier and stops AChE from destroying your precious acetylcholine. Then, in a landmark study (placebo-controlled and double-blind) they discovered that 58% of Alzheimer's-patient subjects had a 'significant improvement in cognitive and memory function' when they got a mere 0.2 mg of Huperzine a day.

In case you missed it, that means THEY GOT BETTER. That's right: Alzheimer's can now be halted AND sometimes even reversed.

* Step Three for reversing Alzheimer's: Stock up on Huperzine-A before you lose any more buttons.

Snowdrops and Daffodils

Those 2 dainty flowers yield an extract called galantamine, which stops Alzheimer's rapidly by boosting your acetylcholine noticeably.
A 5-part study in Belgium concluded unanimously that Alzheimer's patients given galantamine lost none of their mental abilities, while the control subjects given placebos fell apart rapidly, just as you would expect. In another study, doctors at the Helsinki University Central Hospital in Finland started giving 24 mg of galantamine to 359 of 537 Alzheimer's patients each day (the rest got placebos)...

After 6 months, the placebo group was allowed to switch to galantamine.

At the end of a year, both groups were given 3 brain tests. On 2 of the tests, the fortunate ones who had been on galantamine for the whole 12 months scored twice as high as those who had started with placebos. On the third test, they equaled or beat their own scores from 12 months before. Try to get those kinds of results from any medical drug. You can't do it. So take Step Four for reversing Alzheimer's and get a bottle of galantamine.

THE BOTTOM LINE FOR ALL THE ABOVE: Take this advice and you will most likely NOT be among the 50% of North Americans who will have Alzheimer's by age 85.

But to keep up with the constant new discoveries about Alzheimer's (which you won't find in the popular press), you must become a member of the only organization dedicated to unraveling the medical establishment's tapestry of lies-and bringing you the cures your doctor doesn't know about. Almost 100,000 others just like you have already joined, and are feeling and looking younger and more pain-free than they ever thought possible. Just complete the simple enrollment form on the last page to become one of them yourself...

What I find incredibly scary about threads like this is the out-of-hand dismissal of scientific evidence, and the insinuation that everyone who has a Ph.D. or holds the title of expert is somehow part of the problem. Lookit, empirical science is a good thing, and the vast majority of research scientists and medical professionals are not the boogy-men that they are made out to be.

Reliable statistics on Alzheimers prior to the 1970s simply do not exist. In 1960, someone with Alzheimers who was living in New York and had access to cutting edge health care for the day might get diagnosed properly. But someone living in say, Podunk, OK (population 200) that same year, probably would not. Thus the statistics. It is not a global conspiracy - it is what it is, the evolution of our medical understanding.

The same could be said about this flouride business. I've seen the same youtube videos you all have, and I'm not convinced. First of all, the diseases and microorganisms that you would injest without flouride would be potentially more deadly. Secondly, there is not a single piece of verified, duplicated research that shows a correlation between reduced mental capacity after say, ten years of drinking municipal water, and flouride. Everyone points to dumber kids today, but as someone who regularly deals with the 18 to 22 year old crowd, I would say that the real problem is not physiological damage from flouride, but psychological damage from our culture. Kids today are no dumber than the were a hundred years ago; it is our culture that fails to channel their intelligence in a meaningful way, and actually teaches them to mistrust intellignce. And my last word on flouride: there are other things in the water that should be of more concern. Forget, for a moment, the mainstream media report of a year ago, which pointed out the high levels of prescription medicine in our tap water. Let's talk about the high doses of chlorine - much more dangerous than flouride to our systems - we injest. The high amounts of clorine added to municipal water supplies are making people sick - there is mainstream medical documentation about that, but nothing is done. Chlorine and prescription drugs should upset you more than flouride.

And since we're on the touchy subject of chemical conspiracies, let me talk about mercury in vaccines. I and everyone I know have been immunized as suggested by the authorities. We are not sterile. Our brains didn't get liquified. We turned out just fiine. Why is that? Why is it that the vast majority of people who get immunized don't end up sterile or retarded, and go on to live long, productive lives? If these vaccines were actually to blame for the cornucopia of ailments many claim, those maladies would be much more pervasive than they are today. There is something else behind the dramatic rise of Autism, and the scientific evidence for Mercury is pretty thin. The whole "its the Mercury in the vaccines" sounds like a manufactured disinformation scheme designed to hinder finding out what has led to the rise of Autism. Besides, I have no desire to winess in my lifetime a global pandemic of Smallpox.

I know, I know, I must be mind controlled, or part of the "establishment." Forgive me, its probably just the Aspartame talking . . .

Nah your free to believe what you want. I'm glad to read your opinion.

I'm convinced disease is completely foreign to our bodies and is caused by
bad diets. eg, ingesting foreign substances daily.
The whole medical establishment is based on dealing with effects, not causes.

I don't think anyone was saying every doctor is a bad person. I believe their education
is corrupt, not the people practicing it.

Go to the library and research many indigenous cultures who were completely
disease free before westernization. If people were dying at the rate they we are now from diseases
do you really thing they would not have had a name for them?

Indeed go back far enough in "western" culture and you will find similar stories.

Nothing wrong with science either, only it is very limited. It only studies things
that can be physically detected. At least the exoteric sciences.
That is a very small part of reality and what is.
Thankfully many scientists constantly push the boundaries despite the risk of being ostricised.

I have worked in caring for people living with dementia since the early 1980s and I can assure anyone who asks that the incidence of dementia is CERTAINLY rising year on year. Lots of people here have offered a variety of causes - most of which seem well argued. My view is linked to vaccines. In England vaccines began to be given en masse in the late 1920s and early 30s and nobody seems to know precisely what was in these vaccines. If one counts forwards in time the beginning of this 'epidemic' in UK was about fifteen years ago and the number of diagnoses increases here yearly. As the form of dementia most often related to old age has emerged and grown rapidly since the mid 1980s and the constituents of vaccines were [are] very suspect [mercury used as a preservative?], along with an increase in the ingestion of heavy metals related to industrial pollution - I feel extremely angry when dementia is dismissed as weak old people living too long! Trust me - there is something deeply wrong here and the last thing people living with dementia and their families, friends and carers need are ill-informed people making unfounded statements. Interesting - people living to a ripe old age in non-industrial countries are not succombing to dementia in anything like the same numbers as those who live in the west. Why I wonder?

astro,

Here is another thought about the rising numbers of dementia and Alzheimers cases:

While some choose to believe - and it is belief - that living in industrial societies is worse for your health, than say, living out in the African bush, consider the following. Life expectancy in all of the industrialized world has risen dramatically over the last century alone. For the first time in recorded history we are faced with a large population over the age of sixty that one hundred years ago simply did not exist. It seems perfectly reasonable to me that as the population most afflicted with such maladies gets larger, so will the incidents of malady specific to that group.

Getting to the age of sixty in a tribal society out in the African bush is rare. Life expectancy is low. Old people are honored BECAUSE they have defied the norm and lived so long; they are often seen and celebrated as the objects of supernatural favor. The majority getting old, forgive my pun, is relatively new.

Ptha,

The paychecks I cash are for the study of indigineous cultures in North America. The particular tribe I study has a whole set of rituals dedicated to appealing to Wa-kon-da for relief from illness, and even more information about certain plants, minerals, and even animal protiens that make good treatments for specific illnesses. According to them, this knowledge has been with them for millenia. Native Americans have a strong tradition of medicine - for physical and spiritual illnesses.

Just some more food for thought.

Wow!! It seems everything I like has aspartame in it.
I use sweetners for my coffee, I drink flavoured water and pepsi max

Oh well have to find new favourite drinks now, anyone want 12 cans of pepsi max for free??

Recently I have concentrated more on dowsing people.
I have a unique opportunity as I run an antiques shop, and nobody knows what I am doing when dowsing, most think you are looking for water.
I check all of the people entering my shop, I note how they move and what state of health they are in, I ask them their conditions, and I compare and compare.
what I compare is them, not the biological visual, but the actual them, I call this the field.
I KNOW what is occuring, and it is the reduction of the field that leads to the stress related illnesses.
Many are reporting alzhiemers and MS, many many.
I can confirm that these people have the field diameters of extreme aged people.
try to comprehend that your whole existance is this field, and that the body is akin to a car, you occupy it, for a temporary period.
YOU the field is been attacked and drained, harvested if you like.
We are holographic projections of this field, with all our memory within this field, thats why the elderly loose memory and revert to the close early memory of youth.
On average, the normal healthy field is aprox 15 feet radius, with such as MS and alzhiemers this is reduced to one foot or less, this is what I detect with people close to death.
This field is electrically based, and the cause of its demise is possibly the same, with a shorting out due to aluminium absorbtion, that is just an opinion, but it makes sense, and those that have studied such will KNOW this, especially those that seek to dominate the world, WHO Lost the second world war?
I don't think so.

IT IS CAUSED BY ALLUMINUM IN DEODERANT!!!

look it up

[Swanny]

There is absolutely no reason to take this product. It is NOT A DIET PRODUCT!!! The Congressional record said, "It makes you crave carbohydrates and will make you FAT". Dr. Roberts stated that when he got patients off aspartame, their average weight loss was 19 pounds per person. The formaldehyde stores in the fat cells, particularly in the hips and thighs.

Funny thing is I've always joked that diet coke makes people fat, and that you always see fat people drinking it



My memory is terrible but I've always put that down to the parties in the early 90's
