Obama Tries to Sneak Major Health Care Reform into the Stimulus Bill

Thursday, February 12, 2009 - (Byron J. Richards, CCN)

Under the cover of emergency economic legislation the front wave of an entire new system of health care is being pushed on Americans. The strategy for this ploy was once explained by Obama’s former appointee to head the Department of Health and Human Services, and now exposed tax cheat, Senator Tom Daschle....
Researchers Document the Dangers of Statins

Wednesday, February 04, 2009 - (Byron J. Richards, CCN)

A new scientific review of the dangers of statin medications is the first official paper to shed light on what I have been saying for years. It reviews 900 studies on the adverse effects of statins. It shows beyond any doubt that statins are potent disrupters of normal energy production by cells – meaning that the drugs are anti-life.
Is Obama Bailing Out Big Pharma’s Bursting Bubble?

Tuesday, February 03, 2009 - (Byron J. Richards, CCN)

Bubble economics has become a painful financial lesson for America and the rest of the world. Will we learn from our mistakes? Will we get smarter about recognizing bubbles before they burst, so that the air can be let out of them in a less painful manner? It appears that our new president, in his passion to provide health care for everyone, is about to pump hot air into a bubble that is ready to explode under the weight of its own fraud and lack of results.
Steve Jobs’ Wasting-Away Health Problem

Tuesday, January 06, 2009 - (Byron J. Richards, CCN)

Yesterday Steve Jobs floated a description of his personal health problems into the public; calling them “a hormone imbalance that has been ‘robbing’ me of the proteins my body needs to be healthy. Sophisticated blood tests have confirmed this diagnosis. The remedy for this nutritional problem is relatively simple and straightforward, and I've already begun treatment.” His press release describing his health issue was timed to quell market concern...
Diabetes Drugs – A Miserable Failure to Improve Health

Thursday, December 18, 2008 - (Byron J. Richards, CCN)

On December 17, 2008 the New England Journal of Medicine put the nail in the coffin on another dismal year for the theory of drugs to treat disease, reporting that aggressive use of blood-sugar-lowering medication to prevent heart disease was a complete failure. Its not that lowering blood sugar in this patient population didn’t do anything: it made the patients heavier and more hypoglycemic.
Are Statins Causing the Rising Rates of Heart Failure?

Sunday, December 14, 2008 - (Byron J. Richards, CCN)

Quietly, another colossal drug debacle flies under the radar of the mainstream media. Last week, The New England Journal of Medicine reported that blood pressure medication is not effective in the treatment for the rapidly rising rate of heart failure in patients over the age of 65. This means that Western Medicine has no treatment for a relatively recent problem – one that I believe is a side effect of taking statins.
Common Diabetes Drugs Double Fracture Risk

Wednesday, December 10, 2008 - (Byron J. Richards, CCN)

The common diabetes drugs Avandia and Actos are once again in the spotlight. This time, because they double the risk of fracture in women.
Statins Injure Eye Muscles

Wednesday, December 10, 2008 - (Byron J. Richards, CCN)

The bad statin news just keeps on coming. Research conducted by the Casey Eye Institute looked into the FDA’s adverse drug reporting (ADR) system for reports on double vision, drooping eyelids, and loss of range of motion of the eyes – all problems that involve loss of function in small muscles that control the eyes.
Common Pollution Disturbs Thyroid Health

Tuesday, December 09, 2008 - (Byron J. Richards, CCN)

A new study shows that PCB contamination is a major factor that disrupts thyroid function and structure. PCB contamination remains rampant in the American food supply.
A Statin Warning for Pregnancy

Tuesday, December 09, 2008 - (Byron J. Richards, CCN)

The statin marketing machine sees potential customers in women of child-bearing age. A new warning has been issued by scientists that any type of statin and pregnancy do not mix, causing damage to the child.
Antidepressants Cause Major Bone Loss

Sunday, November 30, 2008 - (Byron J. Richards, CCN)

Big Pharma has been obsessed with serotonin manipulation since the early 1990s, when their rather dangerous and half-the-time useless SSRI medications were turned into blockbuster drugs. These drugs are now shown to be a serious cause of bone loss and a new study shows why.
Desperate Big Pharma Push to Double Statin Sales

Tuesday, November 11, 2008 - (Byron J. Richards, CCN)

In the face of overwhelming negative science the statin marketing machine marches on, now suggesting that statins should be given to middle aged men and women even though they don’t have elevated cholesterol.
Congressional Birdbrains – Your Health at Risk

Saturday, October 04, 2008 - (Byron J. Richards, CCN)

On Monday, Sept 29, the American public witnessed firsthand the utter ineptitude of the United States House of Representatives, hitting Main Street directly in the pocketbook. While leaders try to figure a way out of an impending economic crisis, it is now clear for everyone to finally see that we have an equal crisis in political leadership.
Vytorin Cancer Link Opens Can of Worms

Wednesday, September 03, 2008 - (Byron J. Richards, CCN)

In an unprecedented change of posture the New England Journal of Medicine has reversed itself on the issue of whether Vytorin causes cancer. In the initial release of data back in July NEJM stood by Merck and Schering-Plough, who hired an Oxford consultant to rule that a 50% statistically significant increased risk of cancer was by chance. I pointed out in an earlier posting that such statistical manipulation, based primarily on the opinion of the Oxford reviewer, was ridiculous. NEJM has had a sudden change of heart and now agrees with me.
Major Fraud:  Merck Concocted Vioxx Studies

Tuesday, August 19, 2008 - (Byron J. Richards, CCN)

The Annals of Internal Medicine has followed up on a study published earlier this year in JAMA by the same authors, detailing a specific account of how Merck fraudulently concocted a major Vioxx study as a marketing campaign. Vioxx left tens of thousands of Americans dead.
Obese Southern States Drive Drug Costs

Wednesday, August 13, 2008 - (Byron J. Richards, CCN)

In the politically correct egalitarian world of “health care for everyone” very little attention is paid to the concept of personal responsibility, much less how any such plan would actually be paid for. If you take care of yourself should you be obligated to pay for those who intentionally do not?
More Insane Statin Pushing on Children

Thursday, August 07, 2008 - (Byron J. Richards, CCN)

The American Heart Association (AHA) has gone mad, apparently suffering from overexposure to mercury-amalgam fillings. In their marketing magazine, Circulation, which masquerades as a scientific journal, they have now published research advocating an all out national war on childhood cholesterol – seeking to lower LDL cholesterol to 50 mg./dl.
Newer Drugs Twice as Likely to Injure

Wednesday, August 06, 2008 - (Byron J. Richards, CCN)

New research suggests that Americans will be subjected to drug injury for some time to come, based on flaws in the ways new drugs are tested and approved by the FDA. The problem is serious, with newer drugs causing twice as many drug injuries and deaths as older drugs approved for the same purpose.
Vytorin Increases Cancer Risk by 64%

Tuesday, July 22, 2008 - (Byron J. Richards, CCN)

Researchers were shocked to see that Vytorin increased the rate of cancer by 61%.
Bone Drugs Impair Fracture Recovery

Saturday, July 19, 2008 - (Byron J. Richards, CCN)

A new study shows that bone drugs drastically interfere with the long-term healing and strength of bone that is recovering from a fracture.
Insane Doctors Recommend Statins for Children

Wednesday, July 09, 2008 - (Byron J. Richards, CCN)

The American Academy of Pediatrics has now lost all credibility – actively promoting the use of statin drugs for children as low as 8 years of age. This is beyond disgusting, it is a crime. The inept FDA is nowhere to be found as drug pushing of inappropriate medication is rapidly becoming as large a public health problem as street drugs.
Perverse Corruption as Doctors are Paid to Sell Drugs

Friday, June 20, 2008 - (Byron J. Richards, CCN)

The British Medical Journal is helping everyone understand just how deep the rabbit hole goes. Key doctors are paid big money to promote and sell drugs.
Western Medicine Fails Tim Russert

Wednesday, June 18, 2008 - (Byron J. Richards, CCN)

The shocking death of Tim Russert last Friday has left an entire nation wondering what happened. He was a model patient, doing everything his doctors asked. All major media have run articles trying to explain the nuances and difficulties in treating coronary artery disease. These articles find little fault in Russert’s care, trying to create the idea that his heart attack was just too hard to predict and that all that could have been done for him was done. I beg to differ. His death represents the failure of standard medical care to produce a positive result – an occurrence that is all too common in today’s world.
Psychiatric Credibility Takes a Major Nose Dive

Monday, June 09, 2008 - (Byron J. Richards, CCN)

The New York Times has just reported on the investigation by Senator Charles Grassley (R-Iowa) into the money paid by Big Pharma to the key researchers promoting the off label use of anti-psychotic medications. It shows that the researchers who have been behind promoting massive off-label use of these powerful drugs to children were on the take from Big Pharma and hiding millions in “consulting fees.”
France Fights War on Toxic Food Giants

Friday, June 06, 2008 - (Byron J. Richards, CCN)

Wake up America – your food supply has already been drastically altered by corporate food giants and their governmental bedfellows – who have spliced toxins directly into the DNA of food – inexplicably altering the very nature of our food supply for profit. France is one of the few countries in the developed world that has fought genetically modified food at every turn.
