False Profits
Posted September 30, 2019
Fracking, vaping, and glyphosate were originally touted as safer solutions for health and environment. They weren’t, and there’s a history to this. There’s a fairly ancient gallon container of Roundup in my garage. I bought it back in the days when Roundup, and its key component glyphosate, was widely considered a safer alternative to other herbicides. Its maker, Bayer, still markets it that way. Read more.
Oppose GMO Mosquito Trials in Florida and Texas
Posted September 30, 2019
Oxitec is proposing to release its genetically modified (GM) OX5034 Aedes aegypti mosquitoes in the US states of Florida and Texas. The EPA has opened a public comment period. Oxitec’s application says, “Female offspring of the OX5034 mosquitoes in the environment are expected to die before they mature into adults and therefore exposure to biting female mosquitoes is not anticipated.” Read more.
Vitamin E Linked to Mysterious Vaping Sickness?
Posted September 30, 2019
Not so fast. Action Alert! Recently, reports of illnesses and death linked to vaping have been all over the news. Although the exact cause of the lung illness is not known, the FDA is investigating the presence of vitamin E in many vaping products as a possible culprit. This may cause consumers to be concerned, more generally, about the safety of vitamin E, so it is important to do what many media outlets are not and get the facts straight: the “vitamin E” being referred to in the FDA’s investigation is not natural vitamin E, but a synthetic compound possessing none of the antioxidant properties of real vitamin E. It is crucial that regulators, the media, and the public, not mix this up. Read more.
FDA Can’t be Trusted on CBD
Posted September 30, 2019
A Senate committee has approved language on CBD that will not protect consumer access to CBD supplements. Action Alert! Two weeks ago, we reported on efforts to preserve consumer access to therapeutic levels of CBD oil in supplements. The US Senate Appropriations Committee has approved report language for FY 2020 that falls far short of protecting consumers, and we must act again to save affordable CBD. Read more.

“It’s Degrading” — Mothers of Vaccine-Injured Children Speak Out
Posted September 30, 2019
It’s no secret that vaccines are not completely safe for everyone, it’s clearly not a ‘one size fits all’ product, and that’s evident by the fact that nearly $4 billion has been paid out to families of vaccine injured children via the National Childhood Vaccine Injury Act (NCVIA). As astronomical as the monetary awards are, they’re even more alarming considering that only an estimated 1% of vaccine injuries are even reported to the Vaccine Adverse Events Reporting . Read more.
$30M National Toxicology Program Study Shows Cell Phone Radiation is Carcinogenic
Posted September 20, 2019
The NTP, a legitimate government agency, performed the largest, longest study on cell phone radiation that has ever been done. This particular study was requested by the FDA for the NTP to carry out. The reason why the FDA wanted this study done was to assess, using animal studies, whether there is risk to humans from cell phone radiation. They wanted this information because the only safety guidelines that existed at that time were based only on thermal, or heating, damage to tissues from short term exposure (which is known as the SAR safety limit). Nothing had yet been established about long term risk, or the risk of any non-thermal aspects of cell phone radiation. To accomplish this in the study, they used levels of cell phone radiation that were too low to cause a heating effect on tissue. Read more.
Is Doctors’ Cash Incentive Sidelining the Hippocratic Oath?
Posted September 20, 2019
California likes to brag about its “outsized influence” on the rest of the United States and its vaunted tendency to “experience the future earlier than other parts of the country.” However, having just passed the most draconian vaccine law in the nation—one that decimates the doctor-patient relationship and tells medically fragile children that they have no right to bodily integrity—it would appear that the state’s lawmakers and the medical trade groups that were only too happy to co-sponsor the legislation think it is trend-setting to model medical tyranny and the overthrow of the Nuremberg Code.
