U.S Preventive Medicine is a new company advertised in the Wall Street Journal. They are rounding up physicians throughout the country to focus on preventing disease by prescribing drugs before people get the diseases the drugs are to be taken for. This will make the drug companies a LOT of money, which is what the spin on prevention is all about, after all. Does anyone out there know of a disease that’s due to a drug deficiency???

Teflon Coatings, Not What They Are Claimed To Be
Nonstick cookware is everywhere. It’s often cited as the perfect example of “better living through chemistry,” but maybe it’s not such a good example after all. Recent findings show that 95% of Americans have detectable levels of Teflon related chemicals in their blood. It is now persistent in the environment and toxic to pet birds and laboratory animals.

From Acres USA, the foremost eco agricultural magazine in the USA, and available to patients in my waiting room, comes this interesting bit of health news.

On Friday, October 27th, the front page story in the K.C. Star was on the Wal-Mart Generics Plan entitled the $4 Drug Gambit. It suggested a Drug War between the big pharmacies. Wal-Mart is offering 314 generic prescriptions, approximately 25% of their line, for $4.00 for a one month supply. The program is now available in MO and KS, and is being offered in over 1000 of their stores. So the question arises, HOW CAN THEY DO THAT AND MAKE ANY MONEY?

ADHD Drugs Send Thousands To The ER
It sometimes takes decades to assess the drugs that are given to so many so cavalierly.
