(Phillip Schneider) It’s often half-jokingly said that if there was one thing that could bring Americans together, it would be cannabis. That might seem a little farfetched at first, but once you discover how many people want cannabis legalized, it will make sense.

More than One Million Children under Age 6 Are on Psychiatric Drugs… Parents Don’t Know What They’re Getting Into
(Vicki Batts) Are children in the United States being over-medicated? According to some recent statistics, it surely looks that way. Over a million children six years of age or under are prescribed a psychiatric medication. Overall, more than eight million kids in America are on some sort of psychotropic drug — and the medical establishment is hardly batting an eye.
Scientists Warn That Many Pharma Drugs Destroy Our Gut Microbiome, Causing Us to Be More Vulnerable to Disease
(Isabelle Z.) You’ve probably heard by now that antibiotics can seriously impact your gut microbiome, but it turns out that this action is not just limited to antibiotics.

Shocking: Goldman Sachs Questions Whether Curing Disease is Economically Sustainable
(Jay Syrmopoulos) Goldman Sachs, in an April report to clients, addressed an ethical conundrum facing pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies in regard to futuristic cures based on cutting edge gene therapy: “one shot cures,” rather than the model of continuous treatment, could be difficult for some “medicine developers looking for a sustained cash flow.”
World Famous Psychiatrist Warns That Increased Use of Psychiatric Drugs Will Translate to More Mass Shootings
(Tracey Watson) The psychiatric/pharmaceutical drug industry is worth a staggering $80 billion a year in sales alone, and Washington is literally crawling with lobbyists who have seemingly bottomless pots of cash to smooth the regulatory path for drug manufacturers. This has led to a situation in which the politicians tasked with protecting some of the most vulnerable people in the nation – those with mental health issues – have adopted a “see no evil, hear no evil approach.” They happily look the other way as doctors and psychiatrists continue to prescribe antidepressant and anti-anxiety drugs despite their dangerous side effects, which include mania, violence, psychosis and homicidal ideation (the desire to commit murder).

New Study Finds Antidepressants to be “Largely Ineffective and Potentially Dangerous”
(Alex Pietrowski) The first two pharmaceutical antidepressants were clinically introduced in the 1950’s, and the conditions they were supposed to treat would have at that time been found in about 50 to 100 persons per million. Today, some 13% of Americans now take antidepressants daily, even though we don’t yet understand the long-term effects of most psychotropic drugs.
Suppression of Natural Cures and the Pharmaceutical Takeover of Healthcare — Part 1: Money

ADHD is a “FAKE” Disease Invented by Big Pharma to Drug Children for Profit
(Vicki Batts) ADHD, or Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder, is ubiquitous in the American classroom, there’s little debate about that. According to CDC statistics from 2012, 11 percent of children between the ages of four and 17 had been diagnosed with ADHD at some point. With over six million kids diagnosed, it’s hard not to wonder: Is this condition […]
Government Agencies ACTUALLY Admit Poisoning By Vaccines In ICD-9
(Catherine J. Frompovich) What is ICD-9, you probably are asking. Well, it’s the official International Classification of Diseases, Ninth Edition, used to assign codes to diagnose and procedures associated with hospital utilization in the United States [1], and published by none other than the U.S. CDC. See chart below.
Birth Control Pill Officially Linked to Increased Risk of Breast Cancer
(Alex Pietrowski) Some predict that in coming years cancer rates will climb to 1 in 2 adults, and in the throes of such a serious cancer epidemic, all eyes are on causes and cures. Hormonal birth control has long been suspected of contributing to the risk of developing cancer, and this claim is further supported by a European […]
Why Brain Hacking with Smart Drugs May Not Be So Genius
(Christina Sarich) When you talk to brain-hackers from Silicon Valley, they talk of creating the perfect stack – a combination of natural and pharmaceutical nootropics that can help make them into a super-powered genius that can go hours without sleep while maintaining massive focus. It sounds like a cool way to hack the brain, but this […]
The Hidden Dangers of Birth Control Pills Doctors Don’t Want You to Know
(Isabelle Z) Many young women’s first trip to the gynecologist is prompted by a desire to take birth control pills, whether they are trying to avoid getting pregnant or hoping to alleviate the symptoms of premenstrual syndrome. Perhaps they know someone who takes “the pill,” or a well-meaning parent or boyfriend has encouraged them to go […]
The Company Behind America’s Opioid Epidemic Pleads Guilty
(Robert Jonathan) The U.S. Centers for Disease Control estimates that nearly 150 Americans now die from a drug overdose each day. In the past decade, opioid overdoes have quadrupled, as have sales of prescription opioid painkillers. There are now more deaths attributable to drug overdoses than a combination of gun homicides and car crashes. At […]
