Stinky Sulfur Award for You

Novamoxin Prescription Drug - 500mg Amoxicilli...Image via WikipediaI know that somewhere within you a Stinky Sulfur Award (SSA) exists. Share it with us! I know you are busy. But we want to hear about those things that
stink...Here is an easy format:
Introduction: Who is the recipient and why?
Body: Tell us the main outcome of their stench
End: Offer an alternative or how to avoid
  Three sentences or paragraphs will suffice.

Lance Armstrong was recently nominated by a reader...I liked it.But I know there is a lot more stench out there.

When you write a SSA it helps warn others about the stench. Our nose and health is better for it!

Regardless of the dreary headlines exposing the latest prescription drug scandal, love affairs between Big Pharma and top celebrities are at an all-time high. Since drugs can't be sold on efficacy and safety, they're sold on notoriety. Love can hurt, but when top celebrities give pharmaceutical fellatio, it stinks.
The stench comes directly from a big orange bus and a syndicated talk show host who is currently traveling the country as PPA – The Partnership for Prescription Assistance. Fronted by Montel Williams, PPA is hell bent on getting every American on drugs. Once a Nation Under God, we are now One Nation Under Drugs thanks to such stink.

Aunt Helga is buried in drug costs thanks to her family doctor prescribed pain-killer addiction. Grandpa can hardly remember Grandma's name since starting his cholesterol lowering drugs. And Mom is now an honorary member of the Fat cow Hall of Fame courtesy of her blood pressure meds. As drug expenditures rise, health plummets. Welcome to the Land of the sick.

Reeling from bad PR in the wake of killer drugs (think Vioxx, Ibuprofen and anything else sitting in your medicine cabinet) and price gouging, the prescription drug industry sanitizes its public image with the PPA program, an ugly bus and bald guy with the curse of gab. The PPA travels the country with the message that "Help is here" and promises "free or nearly free prescription drugs!"
Montel Williams' smiling mug attempts to make us believe that "Big Pharma wants to help". I decided to see just how much help they really provide. As the orange bus rolled into my hometown, it was go time.

With thoughts of America being sabotaged by Big Pharma, I may have gone too far. I could have buried my head in the sand and pretended that a mass effort to drug and sedate every man, women and child in America didn't exist. But I know too much. There's no going back for me. No more "America's Got Talent," Ultimate Fighting Championships (UFC), Brittany Spears or whatever else we use to bludgeon ourselves into complacency. This is the point of no return. A literary suicide bomber, I boarded the bus strapped and ready to blow.

Once aboard, I was met by smiling "cheerleaders turned PR queens." Akin to drug rep screening protocols, I wondered if bra size was a criterion for the job. This bus was wrought with female warm fuzzies and the type of ignorance that makes Paris Hilton look like a Nobel laureate.

I avoided the pleasantries. In the name of Aunt Helga, I wanted Montel to be the first to feel my rhetorical blast. "Where's Montel?"
"Oh, he's working on another project."
Disappointed, I continued to sleuth my way to the truth. "So, how can you help me?"
"We can help you get free drugs."
"Splendid, let's get started." I wondered what the hell they thought I needed in the way of drugs, but then remembered that thoughts among these queens are prolly as rare as a drug rep who reads..

Applying for assistance on one of the eight or so onboard computers, I typed in an annual income of $20,000. I pretended to need Lipitor, Coreg, and Xanax.
I didn't get free drugs. I got a handful of discount cards – saving me a whopping total of $2.69 on all three drugs compared to buying at Wal-Greens.
Apparently, it's just a scheme to get me and my wallet back on the medical merry-go-round. "Is this the charity claimed by Montel in the TV commercials?"
Hissing and snorting ensued by the PR queens who took the "play dumb" route.
"Well, everyone gets something different with regards to discounts."
"What about generic drugs?" I insisted that, "I'd save more just by going generic."

"Oh, this is only for trade name drugs…like Lipitor and such."
"Oh, that's what trade name means? Thanks for clearing that up for me. You girls are so helpful."

Is your nose starting to pick up the scent of something rotten?
The Partnership for Prescription assistance (PPA) is really The Partnership for Prescription Addiction (PPA).
All the world is a stage. Hasn't some dude already reminded us of this?
Let's follow the money and see who's actually backing Montel and his traveling pill show.

In 2004, congressional Rep. Billy Tauzin, the former chairman of the House committee that regulates the pharmaceutical industry, stepped down and became the new president and CEO of PhRMA. PhRMA is the drug industry's lobbying group responsible for cleaning up their image. To this end, this "fox in charge of the henhouse" spearheaded the creation of the PPA in 2005. It was funded by the top 48 U.S. drug companies!

I proudly give this Stinky Sulfur Award to Montel Williams and his Partnership for Prescription Addiction, which is valiantly crossing the country and assisting the drug industry with its mandate: One Nation Under Drugs, No American Left Unmedicated.

Look for the predatory orange bus to appear soon in your area! And tell your Momma to run like hell. Let her know that she can learn about real health and 90-day natural cures that cost pennies with my PC Foundational Health Education. I initially researched and compiled this education and advice so my own family could live naturally healthy and refrain from being hoodwinked by pharmaceutical fellatio giving celebrities.

Common Drugs that Make Us Fat

Alternatives to Prescriptions that Make Us Fat


Commonly used prescription drugs can drastically interrupt metabolism. When used long term (6 months or more), these drugs can elicit morbid obesity and negate the benefits of any fat loss plan! Users are sure to become honorary members of the Fat Cow Hall of Fame.

The most common of the obesity-inducing drugs are those used for birth control, depression (SSRI's and antipsychotics like Zyprexa), type II diabetes (sulfonylureas such as Amaryl and thiazolidinediones such as Avandia) and high blood pressure (beta blockers such as Atenolol).

All of them, in one way or another, lead to increased amounts of our fat storing hormone insulin. The alternative to birth control is obvious, but the others are not so apparent.

The natural alternative to anti-depressants like Prozac™ is interval training, proper sun exposure, SAMe and the essential amino acid L-tryptophan.
Type II diabetics can successfully use the above lifestyle habits as well as the banaba leaf, green tea, and cinnamon – after undergoing a"$1.41 Cleanse" found at http://www.youtube.com/thepeopleschemist

Blood pressure meds are notorious for increasing our waistline. They disrupt the activity of a family of molecules known as catecholamines, which are responsible for activating fat metabolism – lypolysis and thermogenesis.

Blocking their activity with blood pressure meds leads to massive fat storage and loss of energy.

Many people fear getting off blood pressure medication. It doesn't have to be like this. High blood pressure is not an instant death sentence. In fact, sometimes it is a normal process of aging that results from an increased need for oxygen and nutrient distribution.

It is completely natural for the first number to be 100 plus our age. For example, 160 systolic reading is perfectly in range for a 60 year old. Taking drugs to lower it to 120 would only lead to negative side effects like lethargy, obesity, diabetes and even early death.

The goal of maintaining a blood pressure at or near 120/80 or more recently 115/75 is based on drug company hype, not science. Such low recommendations ensure that healthy people are converted to patients.

If high blood pressure does exist beyond the above parameters, it can be controlled naturally. Getting off sugar and artificial flavors is among the best things you can do to obtain normal readings.

In situations where high blood pressure becomes threatening, using cardiovascular nutrients such as L-arginine combined with magnesium aspartate and a 95% grape seed extract (see http://www.health-fx.net) can serve as a potent natural remedy. Hawthorn can be a potent addition too.

Combined, these nutrients allow for relaxation of arterial walls and proper blood viscosity (the prevention of blood clots). When this happens, pressure is released and blood flow continues without interruption.

Heart attacks and stroke that may result from decreased blood flow or inflammation caused by "high" blood pressure are greatly prevented by these safe and natural "cardiovascular preserving" nutrients.

Don't let your life be compromised with prescription drugs. Logic dictates, "go natural first." This will ensure perfect physique and longevity.

Natural Pain Cure

Formulations containing oxycodone and other an...Image via Wikipedia
Two years and finally my natural pain cure is here!

Amazing, All Natural Pain Erasing Substances That Big Pharma Has Been Hiding And Trying To "Counterfeit" For Decades .

Avoid Risky, Addicting Pills For Your Pain – Use These Potent Pain Neutralizers To Melt Away Back Pain, Arthritis Aches, Migraines, Muscle Soreness, And Even Cancer Pain!

Pain is a multi-billion dollar industry. And not only do big drug companies (Big Pharma) charge you big bucks for a little relief, they also put your health and longevity at risk with dangerous drugs like Vioxx (supposedly safe until thousands of users started having heart attacks), Celebrex, Motrin, and Ibuprofen.

If Big Pharma isn't putting your life at risk (which is never), they're probably sucking you dry with addicting, mind numbing narcotics like hydrocodone or oxycontin.

As an ex-drug chemist for one of the largest pharmaceutical companies, I saw firsthand how the industry attempts to hide side-effects of pain killers, while pushing natural cures under the "pharmaceutical rug."

Few people realize that Big Pharma has invested millions trying to synthesize and "counterfeit" potent pain killers that are found naturally in places like Europe and Asia.

Used for thousands of years in ancient medicine, these natural pain cures quickly melt away severe pain. And not only do they cost less, they're also much safer than the "high profit counterfeits" that drug companies offer.

But the industry hides these facts to protect their profits…Aspirin is a perfect example.

Aspirin was created by synthesizing a "counterfeit" version of the active ingredients found in white willow bark. The bark was discovered to contain a natural pain cure called salicylic acid.

Pharmaceutical chemists learned how to alter this molecule just a "tad" in order to make "acetylsalicylic acid (ASA)." They patented it and called it their own. Today, ASA is mass produced as Aspirin.

But the real white willow pain cure is actually more potent as the counterfeit Aspirin and MUCH safer. This is due to the many other natural pain cures found in the bark that scientists were unable to synthesize and therefore did not tell you about!

What the drug companies wish they could duplicate: The perfect blend of natural pain cures for fast acting relief…

Now, you can get the absolute perfect blend of natural pain cures (i.e. the ones drug companies have been trying to counterfeit but have kept secret)! In my new Relief FX formula, you'll be able to utilize a safe, all natural alternative to expensive, risky, over the counter and prescription pain killers
.
Relief FX utilizes two of the most efficient pain killers found in nature: 25% white willow extract (to get the largest portion of whole herb, active ingredients in their naturally occurring ratios) and 4:1 ginger root (to maximize the absorption, distribution and half-life of the natural pain cures found in Relief FX).

Together, these substances make up a one-of-a-kind, powerful and proven pain fighting supplement that can ease the most severe pains from arthritis, migraines, back aches and even pain associated with cancer.Don't be fooled into thinking that "all natural" translates into being weak or ineffective...

Just look at some of the UNSOLICITED testimony we have received.

"My grandmother was suffering from end-stage cancer. The prescription meds like oxycodone made her violently ill – profuse sweating and vomiting. I gave her your natural formulation to ease her severe pain and suffering. I was amazed to see her functional again, with very little pain. She was very happy not to be dependent on the meds! Thank you so much! Why the hell don't doctors know about this?"

"After the home birth of my second child, I used Relief FX to ease the after birth pains. I would feel relief within minutes and was able to be fully alert and at ease. Thank you so much for this safe and effective pain remedy! It felt great knowing that I wasn't exposing myself or my breast fed baby to toxic pain killers."

After an extremely invasive hand surgery performed to remove a tumor, I was given Percocet™ (a combination of Oxycodone and Acetaminophen) for pain, knowing the dangers of these drugs, I opted for Relief FX as the first line of defense…If it didn't work, I was gonna eat the prescribed meds…But, within 15 minutes (I took 4 capsules on an empty stomach) I was in very little pain! Awesome! It was great to know that I didn't have to pay for the expensive drugs pushed on me by my surgeon! Thanks so much!

Why is Relief FX so powerfully effective?
The natural pain cures found in Relief FX are potent, non-toxic molecules that actually block the compounds in your body that cause inflammation and communicate pain from your spine to your brain. Think of pain as a fire and Relief FX as water.

When you swallow Relief FX, it works fast too! How fast? Try faster than the speed of sound!

My special delivery system isolated from the ginger root distributes the natural pain cures throughout the 100,000 miles of your veins and arteries within 30 minutes…That means the natural pain cures are rushed to every nook and cranny of your body at about 200,000 miles per hour courtesy of the unique delivery system! How's that for instant relief? Nothing compares in efficacy, safety and speed! And if you take it on an empty stomach 9which I highly recommend), it works much faster!

This pain melting combination is so safe and quick, I give it to my own kids when they are sick or suffering from leg cramps/growing pains. As the pain subsides at light speed, they are able to relax and fall sleep fast, which means I don't have to resort to risky Tylenol – or wake up every two or three hours.


Isn't it time you got back to living a life without pain?
The next time your arthritis starts acting up… or your back ache keeps you up at night… or your muscles scream from gym pain… or a migraine hits you in the middle of a long day at work –

just pull out Relief FX for fast acting, soothing relief from your nagging pain. And do it with the peace of mind that you're taking a safe, natural alternative that won't accidently kill you or suck you dry with mind-numbing addiction!
Click the link below to order Relief FX now, and finally have a pain killer you can count on to deliver potent, fast relief without the worry of scary side effects on your health.
