Marketing Disease and Pushing Drugs, 1/7

www.youtube.com www.encognitive.com Doctors might not be crazy about the idea, but patients are walking into their offices asking for specific drugs. They have heard about them on TV or read about them in magazines. Askier travels blissfully down a mountain of ragweed, his skis in perfect position as pollen scatters across a parched mountain landscape. Quick–is this an advertisement for weed killer, a new type of skiing, or an allergy drug? Unless you’ve stayed away from magazines and TV this year, you probably know this is an ad for Allegra, an allergy drug manufactured by Hoechst Marion Roussel, Inc. The caption reads “This allergy season, live with ahhhbandon. Ahhh! Allegra!” The Allegra print campaign is one of a multitude of highly visible prescription’ drug advertisements aimed directly at the public. Ever since federal regulations changed laws governing the advertising of prescription drugs in the 1980s, such advertising efforts have taken off. Manufacturers spent $137 million on direct-to-consumer drug advertising on television alone in 1996, according to IMS America and Nielsen Media Research. Advertising is also extensive in most major consumer magazines. “They’re spending a ton of money” says Jack Trout, a marketing expert based in Greenwich, Connecticut, and author of The New Positioning: The Latest on the World’s Number 1 Business Strategy. “They’re keeping these magazines afloat.” findarticles.com

Cholesterol drugs and antidepressants found in drinking water

Cholesterol drugs and antidepressants found in drinking water
What was in our drinking water? Our home at the time was supplied by a well along the Niagara River in Ontario. The only protection was a dash of chlorine. Now, years later, I’m happy I didn’t know the contents. A report in the Canadian Medical Association Journal has some shocking news about water.

Cholesterol lowering drugs – how many people would take these drugs if they knew the truth?

Morten — Tue, 05 Oct 2010 15:30:15 +0000

What if you put 250 people in a room and told them they would each pay $1000 a year for a [cholesterol-lowering] drug they would have to take every day, that many would get diarrhea and muscle pain, and that 249 [of the 250] would have no benefit? And that they could do just as well by exercising? How many would take that [cholesterol-lowering drug]? asks drug industry critic Dr. Jerome R. Hoffman, professor of clinical medicine at the University of California at Los Angeles (ULCA). Hi, this is Larry Hobbs @ fatnews.com. This is a quote from the cover story in BusinessWeek from January 17th, 2008, Do Cholesterol Drugs Do Any Good? “Most people are taking something with no chance of benefit and a risk of harm,” says James Wright, MD. As far as I know niacin, vitamin B3, is the only cholesterol-lowering agent ever shown to reduce the risk of total mortality. Cholesterol-lowering drugs reduce the risk of dying from a heart attack but increase the risk of dying from cancer suicide and accidental death so that the overall risk of death is not reduced. Therefore, I would pose the scenario slightly differently than UCLA’s Dr. Hoffman. I wonder how many people would take these drugs if they knew that although they slightly reduce the risk of a heart attack, they increase the risk of cancer, suicide and accidental death so that these drugs provide no benefit? What if you were told that you were going to die at exactly the same, but it was more likely that you would die of cancer …

* Cholesterol myth exposed!! They use it to sell drugs that kill you!

PLEASE RATE, COMMENT, AND SUBSCRIBE! Download this and any other youtube or google video quickly and easily using the FREE player from www.realplayer.com DON’T JUST WATCH THIS, DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT! Show all your friends and family and ESPECIALLY PEOPLE IN POSITIONS OF POWER! TAKE ACTION. Most Americans HAVE NO CLUE that the Federal Reserve is a PRIVATE, FOR PROFIT CORPORATION! DON’T BELIEVE ME, LOOK IT UP FOR YOURSELF AND DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT! JFK, Ron Paul, Woodrow Wilson, Milton Friedman, Ronald Reagan, and many others have spoken against the horrible Federal Reserve system we now have which is unnecessary because our government can print the money without paying interest to the private for profit Federal Reserve. While our government can print money for free, the people who own the private Federal Reserve have made trillions off of creating the US money. They loan money to the US government at interest, when our government could print it without them for free. JFK tried to get rid of the Federal Reserve by printing United States Notes because he realized that if private super rich bankers own the Federal Reserve and they loan money to the government, they essentially own the government. The Federal Reserve is the MAJOR reason why this country has declined financially! The Federal Reserve can be abolished and the government can do the same thing by printing money with United States Notes instead of the Federal Reserve Notes. This will save the country trillions …
