"Although diagnostic labels create the illusion of an explanation they are scientifically meaningless and can create stigma and prejudice. -
Dr. Kate Allsopp

"This study provides yet more evidence that the biomedical diagnostic approach in psychiatry is not fit for purpose. Diagnoses frequently and uncritically reported as 'real illnesses' are in fact made on the basis of internally inconsistent, confused and contradictory patterns of largely arbitrary criteria. The diagnostic system wrongly assumes that all distress results from disorder, and relies heavily on subjective judgments about what is normal." - Professor Peter Kinderman

Of course, heavily compromised industry-funded scientists and other lobbyists say the science is decided on GM and that glyphosate is safe. They say anyone who rejects this is anti-science and doesn't care about world hunger because we can only feed the world by rolling out more GM crops and more agrochemicals. But this is little more than propaganda and emotional blackmail, part of an industry strategy designed to tug at the heartstrings of public opinion and sway the policy agenda. Colin Todhunter

Plaintiffs have accused drug manufacturers and wholesalers of fueling the opioid crisis by distributing billions of pain pills for a profit, ignoring ethics and sometimes violating federal law. Big pharma has already paid out more than $1 billion in fines to the Justice Department and Food and Drug Administration over opioid-related issues. TylerDurden

Yes, Americans eat 10 billion animals per year (and that stat is actually a decade old). Including fish, most Americans will chew up and suck down nearly 3,000 animals in their most likely shortened lifespan (about 75 years young, if they're lucky). What's your poison? Bacon cheese burgers? Hot dogs wrapped in bacon? We already know your staple food is chicken, just take a look at the slaughter stats.  Yet chickens suffer horrific deaths in factory farm prison, and these are slow, agonizing deaths, as their little bodies break down from malnutrition, disease, injury, and even slow suffocation. Bet you didn't know that millions of male chicks are ground up while alive and others discarded while alive in plastic garbage bags found in hatchery dumpsters by inspectors, investigative reporters, whistle-blowers and undercover journalists.

Ecological sciences have been based on the recognition of the interconnections and interrelatedness between humans and nature, between diverse organisms, and within all living systems, including the human body. It has thus evolved as an ecological and a systems science, not a fragmented and reductionist one. Diets have evolved according to climates and the local biodiversity the climate allows. The biodiversity of the soil, of the plants and our gut microbiome is one continuum. In Indian civilization, technologies are tools. Tools need to be assessed on ethical, social and ecological criteria. Tools/technologies have never been viewed as self-referential. They have been assessed in the context of contributing to the wellbeing of all. Vandana Shiva

The NHS Blood and Transplant service depends "entirely on voluntary donations," Hunte reported. The NHS checks all donations for infections, but says the "three-month-rule" exists because their tests would not be able to detect all infections in the first three months after a donor had contracted it. Meanwhile, not only homosexuals, but prostitutes, and "people who engage in group sex" are not supposed to give blood during the three-month window after their last sexual encounter.   Dorothy Cummings McLean

Overall, the new report from the Commonwealth Fund found that since 2005 drug overdose deaths in the United States are up 115 percent, alcohol deaths are up 37 percent, and suicides are up 28 percent.   Thanks in large part to those numbers, life expectancy in the United States has now fallen for three years in a row.    Despite all of our advanced technology, and despite our massively bloated debt-fueled standard of living, many Americans are desperately unhappy.  In an attempt to "cure" our unhappiness, many of us have turned to the medical system for answers, and as a result more Americans are on antidepressants than ever before.  In fact, NBC News has reported that one out of every six Americans is currently on at least one psychiatric drug...  Michael Snyder

Adaptive Immunity basically is the CDC/FDA and Big Pharma messing around with human biology to castrate the immune system which, in effect, reprograms the evolutionary natural mechanisms of human physiology and immunity to become ‘captives' of chemical adjuvants, i.e., aluminum, ASO4[2], in vaccines.    As a result of that devious consensus vaccinology science, great harms have been perpetrated upon two generations of global children since 1986-anything from ASIA (autoimmune/inflammatory syndrome induced by adjuvants) to Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) to various types of cancers, now the second primary cause of death in young children: "After accidents, cancer is the second leading cause of death in children ages 1 to 14." Catherine Frompovich

What we have here is a highly profitable vaccine industry, which has no civil liability for any of the health problems caused by the use of their products, that lobbies government to mandate vaccines, while simultaneously insisting on censoring criticism of vaccine safety and effectiveness, and blocking parents from publicly describing real-life experiences about how their healthy children were injured or died after vaccinations, and refusing to conduct well-designed scientific research that investigates evidence of harm. The end result cannot be anything other than mounting public distrust, because this simply isn't how honest corporations and industries who conduct business with transparency and integrity go about making a profit. There's no need for censorship when you have nothing to hide and are willing to address shortcomings or product risks to ensure safety and effectiveness. - Dr Joseph Mercola
