When are we going to learn?
(Science is killing us)

So much worry, stress and money is spent on chasing problems created by drug and food "experts". I wonder if they will ever realise that they are causing the problem. They are constantly fiddling with genetics to the point that they have no idea of what they are creating. They painstakingly deny personal input to this dilemma, even if they have to blame nature for the onset of new diseases. SUCH AROGANCE!
We are now discovering that overuse of antibiotics is detrimental to our future health. Heavy reliance on vaccinations against potential diseases such as the flu; prevents us from acquiring immunity in a natural way. This allows viruses to grow into "super bugs" that we have no cure for, with obvious results. So, the "experts" who influence our governments, ignore the potential problems in favour of profit and claim that test results show these products are safe. They protect themselves by using the American FDA approvals that are politically motivated by profit.
Recently Channel 9, "A Current Affair program" once again covered the subject of sugar diabetes and in particular in children. It appears that much research is being carried out at an enormous cost. Many programs have covered this subject in the past, but none have searched enough to uncover what I believe is the problem. I believe that the relationship between the rising epidemic of diabetes and the use of sugar replacements should be investigated. Perhaps some of you may remember that, some time ago, at the request of one of our readers, we wrote an article examining an additive known as Aspartame (a sugar replacement used in many foods and "diet" drinks). Well, I am shocked to hear that recently our government has outlawed soft drinks at our schools, with the exception of low caloric drinks, most of which may contain Aspartame.
Yet another program highlighted the fact that the famous sales pitch of "slip, slop, slap" to avoid skin cancer is now proving to be the cause of a vitamin D deficiency within our community. As a result, rickets is becoming a major health problem in our children. And, of course, lack of exercise is adding to the problem by reducing lymphatic circulation. Even with all these problems, the 'experts' are not deterred enough from pretending that they know what they are talking about. SHAMEFUL AROGANCE!
Another program on channel 9 (Sunday) had recently, in a two part series covered a story on ADD or ADHD. It was strongly suggested that ADHD had more to do with drug company 'profits' than an actual disease. They suggested that if "adults can be convinced they have ADD, it means huge potential profits for the pharmaceutical industry. The drugs for attention deficit disorders already bring in nearly $3.3 billion a year". I am absolutely appalled, that we spend billions of dollars of our taxes, each year, in an attempt to stop illegal use of amphetamines, the same amphetamines we are subsidising as a PBS prescription, for ADD or ADHD.
Some of us will remember the song "When will they ever learn ... when will they ever learn?"... But too few of us will listen to or pay heed to its words. I do believe however, there is a ground swell of smart thinking people who are changing the way we think. Let us hope that we are not too late.
So, if we want to be well and live a happy and good life, I can only suggest that we all question what we are told by the so-called experts. We have to stop trying to beat nature at her game and realise; we have to trust only what she provides. We must eat what is natural, exercise to a healthy standard, soak up sunlight, at the best time of day, and live for all we are worth.
