    Volume 9 No 4

    1 00 w a ys t o liv e t o 1 0 0How to lead a healthy lifewithout medical interference

    For this, our hundredth issue, What Doctors Dont Tell You offers the best of the advice weve

    offered over the years for leading a long and healthy life.

    1. Prozac. This wonder drug whose side effects are now beinguncovered. Aside from all the known side effects, including insomnia,anxiety, anorexia and weight loss, Prozac has been known to affect near-ly every system of the body. Most recently, its been linked with sexualdysfunction and also long-term dependence (WDDTY vol 8 no 11).

    2. Piroxicam (Feldene). Numerous deaths have been linked to this non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug, which causes some 110 known sideeffects, including stomach and intestinal bleeding or perforation, depres-sion and hair loss (WDDTY vol 7 no 5).

    3. Predisolone or routine use of steroids for anything other than theshort term for life-threatening conditions. Even inhaled or rub-on steroidscause the side effects associated with their oral cousins: thin skinning,growth retardation or osteoporosis, buffalo hump and dementia (WDDTYvol 7 no 2).

    4. Dex f e n f l u ra m i n e . This diet ing mag ic bullet makes you ninetimes more likely to develop pulmonary hypertension, and also causesdepression, insomnia and nervousness. In lab tests it caused braindamage (WDDTY vol 7 no 4).

    5. Nifedipine and other calcium-channel blockers. New revelationsabout this class of drug show they increase the risk of cancer, heartattacks, stomach bleeding and suicide (WDDTY vol 7 no 6). Dangerousfor diabetics (vol 9 no 2).

    6. Larium. At least 300 Britons are claiming severe, long-term effectsfrom this supposed malaria preventative, including hallucinations, anxietyattacks, seizures and severe mood swings (WDDTY vol 7 no 11).

    7. Septrin. This hybrid antibacterial drug, used to treat everything fromtravellers diarrhea to HIV infection, even in children, is extremely toxic. American regulatory agencies warn the drug can cause the potentiallyfatal skin disease Steven-Johnson syndrome, which also causes deathof liver tissue and lowering of blood cell count. The drug, given for HIV-positive AIDS patients, causes symptoms uncannily like those suppos-edly associated with advanced AIDS (WDDTY vol 4 no 10).

    8. Sodium valproate. Also known as valproic acid, this anti-epilepsy drughas a host of side effects, including the capacity to cause potentially fatalliver failure in some patients (WDDTY vol 5 no 2).

    9. Ritalin. This drug of choice for children diagnosed with Attention

    Deficient Hyperactivity Syndrome (ADHS), the latest name for the hyper-active child, can cause seizures in susceptible children, suppress heightand weight, cause nervousness and insomnia, anorexia, nausea, heartpalpitations and, involuntary movements. It also can lead to dependence(WDDTY vol 4 no 4).

    10. Minocycline. This first-line treatment for severe acne has been linkedwith serious adverse reactions, including liver failure, tooth discoloura-tion, autoimmune hepatitis and lupus (WDDTY vol 8 no 1).

    Common medical thinking says a woman doesnt needher uterus after she has had children, which ignores thepart it continues to play in hormone regulation.

    Four out of five operations are unnecessary. Taking outthe gall bladder is not a cure, and if keyhole surgery isused it can actually aggravate the problem by injuring the

    bile duct or causing gall stones to leak into surroundingtissues. Gall bladder problems can be almost entirelysolved through dietary changes (WDDTY, vol 7 no 10).

    Removing the prostate is supposed to stop the spread of

    cancer. Yet the medical evidence shows that this cancer rarely spreads to other areas, until you cut the patientopen. According to autopsy report s, nearly a third of European men have prostate cancer, but only 1 per centdie of it (WDDTY, vol 6 no 4).TT hh yy rr oo ii dd ee cc tt oo mm yy

    Few guidelines exis t as to the how s and whens of transfusions. Surveys show that an estimated one-third tothree-quar ters of those given blood are transfusedinappropriately. Patients run the risk of contracting bl ood-

    borne diseases such as hepatitis C (in 7-10 per cent of cases). Keeping fluid volume up with fluid replacmentscan wo rk better than transfusion (WDDTY, vol 3 no 2).

    1. Lowering your blood cholesterol levels will prevent heart disease. Science has never been able to link cholesterolwith heart disease. Population studies show that manygroups with high levels of heart disease dont have high lev-els of blood fa ts. Careful examination of the studies sup-posedly demonstrating that cholesterol-lowe ring drugs wo rk

    show they fail to translate into a significant number of live ssaved (WDDTY, the book).2. Screening for cancer can catch it early and save live s.Mammograms, cervical cancer screening and the latestPSA screening have never been shown to save live s. Allscreening tests are highly inaccura te. The latest study of thePSA test shows screened men are more likely to die (see p10).3. The mercury in your fillings is permanently locked in and therefore harmless. Numerous studies in animals andhumans demonstrate that mercury particles and va poursare a timed-release poison, which migrate to va rious part sof the body, including the brain, and cross the placenta inpregnant women. We still dont know the extent of the dam-age (The Dental Handbook).4. Fluoridating the water and dental products is good fo r your teeth and stops tooth decay in children. Rather thanstrengthening bone tissue, fluoride causes osteoporosis.

    New evidence shows fluoride can also damage the centra lnervous system, causing brain dysfunction, lower IQ andpossibly even Alzheimers disease (WDDTY vol 3 no 9 andvol 9 no 3).5. Vaccination has conquered infectious disease. Carefulexamination of polio and smallpox casualties shows that the

    disease had a higher incidence in many areas that werehighly vaccinated. The incidence of all infectious diseaseswere plummeting long before the onset of vaccination, whichtook the credit (WDDTY, the book).6. Women need hormone replacement aft er themenopause to protect them from osteoporosis and heart

    disease. All the major studies supposedly demonstrating asurvival benefit with HRT have been criticised as biased or flawed. Virtually eve ry major study of HRT also shows itcauses at least a 30 per cent increase in breast cancer (TheGuide to Menopause).7. Modern drugs have conquered many diseases. The onlydrug capable of curing anything is antibiotics. No other dru gout there curesit simply suppresses symptoms, usually atthe risk of causing a load of other ones (WDDTY, the book).8. Routine X-rays arent dangerous. The UK National

    Academy of Science believes that x-rays could be responsi-ble for 4 per cent of leukaemias and up to 8 per cent of allother cancers (WDDTY vol 4 no 6).9. Mental health has nothing to do with diet. Work inPrinceton and now the UK shows links with schizo phreniaand depression and allergies or nu tritional deficiencies.Virtually eve ry case of depression seen by the Institute of Optimum Nutrition relates to an allergy to wheat (The Guide

    to Mental Health).10. Cancer surv ival statistics are improving, thanks tochemothera py. Chemotherapy has an all over cure rate of at best 9 per cent, usually for rare cancers. It doesnt affe ctin any way the solid tumours which make up some 90 per cent of all cancers (The Cancer Handbook).
