The Perils of Pharmacies
More and more people are suffering from circulatory disease, which is directly tied to internal inflammation that is caused by our “cooked food lifestyle”. Ask your doctors to order the C-reactive protein test. See if your levels are high. It is a great tool to help doctors prescribe an anti-inflammatory drug.
Vioxx was supposed fix all that inflammation. The result was that about 100,000 Americas died of heart events directly caused by the drug. I guess 100,000 premature deaths was enough for the FDA to have to do something. Do you remember the tryptophan affair? That is a free form amino acid promoted by the natural supplement industry. That caused 2 deaths, and was pulled off the market. And the cause was the GMO bacteria used to grow the tryptophan, not the amino acid itself.
The good news is there is a natural way to lower inflammation, but the pharmaceutical companies aren’t too keen to embrace it and certainly won’t advertise it on TV. This is mostly because they cannot make their usual markup. The supplement industry usually makes around ten times the cost of ingredients on their all-natural products, whereas the pharmacies generally make around a hundred times the cost of their ingredients. In our superfood business we don’t even get 5 times the cost of ingredients … we are such idealists.
