Here’s why we think a ban is coming. Action Alert! A National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine (NASEM) committee recently released a report regarding compounded pain creams. The report makes clear that, like the FDA, NASEM does not seem to understand the purpose of pharmacy compounding, which is a dire concern as we await another NASEM report assessing the “clinical utility” of compounded bioidentical hormones. We fear that the upcoming NASEM report will give the FDA cover to ban compounded bioidentical hormones like estriol. We must make the FDA and NASEM listen to consumers who rely on these medicines.

Tell Congress that H.R. 6666 “COVID-19 Testing, Reaching, and Contacting Everyone (TRACE) Act is Unconstitutional and Threatens the Liberty of All Americans
Posted May 27, 2020
There has never been a more urgent reason to contact your representative in Congress than H.R. 6666. This Orwellian bill threatens our freedom as individuals more than any piece of legislation we’ve previously seen. As the chaos around Covid-19 continues to dominate lives, governments, and media around the globe, H.R. 6666 was introduced in the U.S. House of Representatives, aiming to use the diversion to implement strategies to legalize surveillance of all people in this country, in clear violation of Article I of the Constitution.

Household Products That Increase Risk From COVID
Posted May 27, 2020
Exposure to a slew of toxic chemicals is making us sick, increasing COVID infections, and ushering in an era of male infertility. Action Alert! Exposures to every day chemicals are making us more susceptible to infection by the COVID-19 virus. Endocrine disrupting chemicals are found in food packaging, cookware, plastics, and many other consumer products. These chemicals are linked to the very diseases that increase our risk of serious COVID-19 infection. Government agencies like the FDA and EPA continue to ignore the clear dangers posed by these chemicals—another example of the cronyism and deference to industry that puts American lives at risk.

Your COVID Risk Assessment: A Look at the Numbers
Posted May 27, 2020
What we know so far about who’s at risk for COVID-19—and why the government isn’t doing more to protect us. Action Alert! Factors such as age, gender, race and underlying medical conditions make this virus much more dangerous for some, less so for others. Given these different risks, the government should be funding research into how we can protect ourselves from COVID-19 infection with nutrition and lifestyle changes, but they ignore these approaches because they don’t make money for drug companies.

Natural COVID Treatments: Cronyism Stands in the Way
Posted May 18, 2020
Action Alert! Write to Congress and the National Institutes of Health, demanding further study on promising natural treatments for COVID-19. Please send your message immediately.
Over the last few weeks, we’ve been reporting on promising natural options for preventing and treating COVID-19 infection. Based on conversations with highly credentialed scientists, we believe that there are natural products that could be further developed to provide a complete cure for many diseases, including viruses, killer viruses, cancers, and even heart disease.

COVID Quickens Antibiotic Resistance
Posted May 11, 2020
This pandemic is exacerbating a big problem, but natural alternatives are still ignored. Action Alert! Antibiotics are being widely used in hospitals around the world to treat or prevent secondary infections in COVID-19 patients. This will make the problem of antibiotic resistance much worse and lead to many deaths. Natural alternatives to treat bacterial infections exist, but they are ignored by government and the medical establishment. Read more.
Remdesivir is NOT the COVID Study Strategy
Posted May 11, 2020
The new drug is being billed as the new “standard of care” for COVID-19, but only improves mortality by 3.6%. Action Alert! Dr. Anthony Fauci, director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), has declared that the new antiviral drug remdesivir will “be the standard of care” for COVID-19, delivering a windfall to the manufacturer. This bold claim is seemingly based on results from a single trial that leaves some serious questions about the efficacy of this drug. In the meantime, low-cost, safe, and effective natural treatments are being ignored. This is a prime example of how our crony capitalist health system operates. Read more.
NIH’s Failing COVID Study Strategy
Posted May 11, 2020
Cronyism is standing in the way of natural COVID-19 prevention. Action Alert! There are no drugs for preventing COVID-19, so the government says almost nothing about prevention except for social distancing while our economy suffers. There are many indications, however, that nutrients and lifestyle approaches can help protect us from this virus. The “problem” is that these approaches don’t make billions for the drug companies, so the government doesn’t care. We must demand research into nutritional strategies to prevent COVID-19 infection. Read more.
EPA Approves Known Carcinogen
Posted May 1, 2020
Hint: it’s not glyphosate, but another cancer-causing herbicide. Action Alert!
After sidestepping the normal public comment process, the EPA has approved a pesticide called isoxaflutole, which the agency has determined likely causes cancer, to be sprayed in 25 states. Nor is it the first time the agency has flouted the Administrative Procedures Act (APA) to approve dangerous chemicals. Once again, the EPA demonstrates that it cares more about industry profits than public health. Read more.
Are Ventilators Killing People?
Posted May 1, 2020
Emerging evidence suggests they are. Action Alert!
Many are now questioning the usefulness of ventilators for COVID-19 patients, suggesting they might cause more harm than good. This may be because the paradigm by which doctors are treating the disease is wrong. Simply put, hospitals around the country are operating from the assumption that COVID-19 infection causes respiratory failure in which a ventilator is needed to do the work that the patient’s muscles normally do. But there is an emerging theory that oxygen failure is the problem, that it is as if patients have been placed at high altitudes without being able to acclimate. Read more.
