Marin Chiropractor, Dr Harte, talks on Walgreen's 10 Point Check

Walgreen's Drug Stores is heavily advertising their new "10 Point" plan for prescriptions. They are making a sudden virtue of keeping records, checking for drug interactions, explaining side effects, etc. Should all of these things be done by a pharmacy? Of course. Should it have always been done? of course.

You may feel secure when you go to your pharmacy, when you take your drugs. The assumption, your assumption, is that it's all safe because "The Doctor says..." Maybe not. Read that. You will be shocked. Shocked enough to question your absolute, quasi-religious belief in Medicine? I certainly hope so. If not, you are wasting your time reading these ezines, and you will never be sensible enough to get the Big Idea of Chiropractic.

How can you expect drugs to make you healthy, anyway? If drugs are supposed to make you healthy, then those who take the most drugs would be the healthiest, right? No! How about yourself? Over the years, you get prescribed more and more drugs. (Yes, I know. You are always given what seems to be scientific reasons for the prescriptions. Well, perhaps it's not so scientific.) As you take more and more drugs, are YOU getting healthier, or sicker? Do you ever get well, or are your conditions just maintained, as you slowly go downhill? Don't make excuses. Just be honest with yourself. Do you still think that you can get well from the Outside-in?

Concerned about the environment? What do you think happens to the metabolites from all the drugs you take, after they pass through you body as waste products? Read this.

Safety? Efficacy? Do you still believe that Medicine knows all and does all, that it is totally scientific, and that Chiropractic is just for simple back pain? It is time that you questioned your cult-like beliefs. Perhaps this will help.

You can continue on, maintaining your poor health, believing in the gross limitations that have been fed into your brain. ("You're getting old." "You're a woman." "Your child will grow out of this." "There's nothing anyone can do for...") Or, you can wake up and think. You can realize that health does not come from Outside-in. Health only comes from Above-down, Inside-out. THAT is how Chiropractic works.

Corte Madera Chiropractor Dares to say: AUTISM RESEARCH FRAUD: Is Medical Non-Science Destroying Young Lives

On the question of autism causation, I wonder if the powerful special interest consortium, whom I refer to as the PMG (Pharmaceutical-Medical-Governmental) Complex, is testing just how far it can go with creating false direction utilizing research that is blatantly irrelevant. Some of this research, surveyed as the cover story of the current issue of the journal, “Neuron,” talks of one thing that we already knew, that males are more susceptible. These studies talk of “de novo events”… mutations, which are “ultrarare,” and are more plentiful in autistic than non-autistic children. OK. This means that the autistic kids have been damaged. We know this, too. This does not answer the real question, “Damaged by what?” Media’s coverage, and the common assumption, is just that “it’s genetic.” This answers nothing!

I know the knee-jerk reaction of many… Modern Medicine IS Science Medicine has done so much for society. Medicine can do no wrong. This mind-set goes on to, automatically, declare anyone who dares criticize or present truly alternative thinking as just plain nuts. As an expert in biological common sense, as a chiropractor for 30 years, I am used to being labeled a “quack” by mindless medical sheep. Scientific racism.

Fact: Autism, a terribly tragic affliction, has gone from being virtually unknown to now affecting one in 110 children in this country. (When you hear the popular “We can diagnose better now,” just stop and think how obvious autism is.) The emotional costs to its victims and their families are incalculable. What about the financial costs? Especially in these harsh economic times, associated costs can easily bankrupt a family. The escalating costs to insurance companies, to government health agencies, and to the public school system may very well play a large role in bringing down the whole system. Think… a lifelong disease, often with total disability, beginning in early childhood, occurring at skyrocketing rates.

From the first whispers of possible genetic causation (of autism), I knew two things. (1) The medical research industry will be gearing up for a massive infusion of work, influence and cash, to chase something that cannot be found. (2) The entire PMG Complex will go anywhere, say anything, do anything, to protect the “holy water” of their (unscientific) cult… vaccination. Yes, this is “CYA,” just like in politics. This has all the grace of Congressman Weiner, with infinitely more societal damage.

This genetic “tilting at windmills” is easy to sell to an adoring public who awaits the next medical “miracles.” Here’s scientific fact for you. Genetic diseases are stable within the population, over time. The human genome has not been radically altered in the last two generations. So, the genetic causation theory of autism is patently wrong, so wrong that, in my view, it demonstrated the (medical) gullibility of society.

The other group of autism causation-pushers are the environmental crowd, claiming it must be something in the environment, some kind of mass poisoning. Well, they are right, but not in the way that they imagine. The ultimate environment is within the body itself. If you pollute it, on a serial basis, beginning at birth, and continuing throughout childhood, there has got to be serious consequences. When at least some of those pollutants are specifically neurotoxic (aluminum, mercury, MSG, formaldehyde), how can you not expect brain damage? As the number of vaccines, and the number of doses rose, so did autism. The state of New Jersey has the highest autism rate, one in 90. They also have the highest number of mandated vaccinations.

Want to save the health of children and reduce a massive financial burden that is crushing both families and the whole system? Take a very important step to correct interference to the function of your child’s immune system. Get him or her under regular wellness chiropractic care. (This is not a substitute for vaccination. This is totally different.) “The best immune system is in the body, not in a lab.”  - Clarence Gonstead, D.C.

Medicine, Chiropractic and Ham

"We have, over the years, given credit where credit is not due. We have credited the so-called wonder drug of today, ultimately to be taken off the market, either because of its dreadful side effects, or its disappointing results. The wonder drugs of yesterday have actually become the blunder drugs of today and, as a result, new diseases, termed iatrogenic or diseases produced by drugs, have been encountered by man.

Now, we have not only the original disease process to deal with, but the consequences of the drug used against it. We give credit for healing to outside factors, which, in fact, have not been established as valid or effective. I like to think of the analogy where an individual cuts himself and runs to the nearest medical doctor. The doctor attends the injury by first cleansing it with antiseptic, shoots the body full of an antibiotic for the prevention of a possible infection, wraps the injury in sterile gauze, and the patient is told to come back in a week's time.. Sure enough, after one week, the sterile bandages are removed and the lesion is healed. In turn, we are very grateful for the antibiotic, antiseptics and the sterile bandages.

May I suggest that you take a piece of meat out of the refrigerator, put a cut into it with a knife, then cleanse it with antiseptics, shoot it with antibiotics and wrap it in sterile gauze and bandages and put it away for a week's time. You will be surprised to find that no healing took place, and the cut is still quite obvious. As amusing as this analogy may seem, you may say that it is totally absurd that a piece of meat could possibly heal because it is dead. This is the very point. It is life that heals. There is no known antibiotic, no known drug, no known outside force or factor that ever healed. Only this thing called life has the ability and power to heal and cure. As a matter of fact, the only thing man ever cured was a ham!"

Health Care: Are you able to think critically... really?

 

"Unthinking respect for authority is the greatest enemy of truth."

 -Dr. Albert Einstein

" I once read that near the end of the war, a ship set sail for the United States with a group of German prisoners of war on board. These were no ordinary prisoners, but members of the high command of the Third Reich. They were being brought to the US for interrogation. Near the end of their voyage, they were given a fine meal, and they began sneering at the Americans for giving them this food. The Americans could not understand why their generosity was regarded with such contempt. The Germans then said that they knew the Americans did not have an abundance of food sufficient to give them such a meal, and that obviously the Americans must be patronizing them because the roles of captor and captive would soon be reversed. The Americans insisted they were wrong, but the Germans wouldn't hear of it. Finally, an American officer said, "All right, you can see for yourself, when we pull into New York harbor tomorrow".

    "Never!" they cried. "You will never pull into New York harbor. We have seen pictures of your city in ruins, and you will never let us see this destruction". It turned out that in Berlin, they had been shown photographs of what were supposed to be the bombed ruins of New York City. The Germans openly laughed at the Americans, who insisted that the city had never been bombed.

    As promised, the ship approached New York City the next day, and as it pulled into the harbor, the Germans looked at the city with wonder and disbelief. One of the Americans, satisfied that the Germans must finally recognize that they had been victims of misinformation, asked, "Well, what do you think of your Dr. Goebbels now?"

    Puzzled by the question, the Germans looked at the American, and one of them asked, "We don't understand. What does Dr. Goebbels have to do with this?"

    The American officer replied, in exasperation, "Then why are you all staring at the skyline with such disbelief and amazement?"

    Another of the Germans answered, "American ingenuity, that they could rebuild this city so quickly".

    The Germans were so well programmed that they couldn't see a truth as large as New York City. Were they stupid? Not at all. They were intelligent people, but they had been so completely programmed that their brains refused to recognize the truth, even though it should have been painfully obvious to them.       

A question for you: How well-programmed are you about Medicine, about Chiropractic, about other health care issues? How many things do you think you “know,” things that may really just strongly held opinions that you were programmed to have?

Something to think about. "What everybody knows," what you "always knew," may have little to no validity. This is worth thinking about. Your life, or the life of a loved one, may depend upon it.
