Introduction 
                      & Overview
                    There 
                      are a number of alternative healing therapies that work 
                      so well and cost so little (compared to conventional 
                      treatment), that Organized Medicine, the Food & Drug 
                      Administration, and their overlords in the Pharmaceutical 
                      Industry (The Big Three) would rather the public 
                      not know about them. The reason is obvious: Alternative, 
                      non-toxic therapies represent a potential loss of billions 
                      of dollars to allopathic (drug) medicine and drug 
                      companies.
                    The 
                      Big Three have collectively engaged in a medical conspiracy 
                      for the better part of 70 years to influence legislative 
                      bodies on both the state and federal level to create regulations 
                      that promote the use of drug medicine while simultaneously 
                      creating restrictive, controlling mechanisms (licencing, 
                      government approval, etc) designed to limit and stifle 
                      the availability of non-drug, alternative modalities. The 
                      conspiracy to limit and eliminate competition from non-drug 
                      therapies began with the Flexner Report of 1910.
                    Abraham 
                      Flexner was engaged by John D. Rockefeller to run around 
                      the country and˜evaluate' the effectiveness of therapies 
                      taught in medical schools and other institutions of the 
                      healing arts. Rockefeller wanted to dominate control over 
                      petrolem, petrochemicals, and pharmaceuticals (which 
                      are derived from 'coal tars' or crude oil). He arranged 
                      for his company, Standard Oil of New Jersey to obtain a 
                      controlling interest in a huge German drug cartel called 
                      I. G. Farben. He pulled in his stronger competitors like 
                      Andrew Carnegie and JP Morgan as partners, while making 
                      other, less powerful players, stockholders in Standard Oil. 
                      Those who would not come into the fold "were crushed" according 
                      to a Rockefeller biographer (W. Hoffman, David: Report 
                      on a Rockefeller {New York:Lyle Stuart, Inc., 1971}page 
                      24.)
                    The 
                      report Flexner submitted to The Carnegie Foundation was 
                      titled "Medical Education in the United States and Canada". 
                      Page 22 of the report said: "the privileges of the medical 
                      school can no longer be open to casual strollers from the 
                      highway. It is necessary to install a doorkeeper who will, 
                      by critical scrutiny, ascertain the fitness of the applicant, 
                      a necessity suggested, in the first place, but consideration 
                      for the candidate, whose time and talents will serve him 
                      better in some other vocation, if he be unfit for this, 
                      and in the second, by consideration for a public entitled 
                      to protection from those whom the very boldness of modern 
                      medical strategy equips with instruments that, tremendously 
                      effective for good when rightly used, are all the more terrible 
                      for harm if ignorantly or incompetently employed".
                    All 
                      too often, politicians are prepared to enact laws that rob 
                      citizens of yet another constitutional freedom under the 
                      banner of "public protection". Needless to say, congress 
                      swallowed the recommendations of this report hook, line, 
                      and sinker. It was decided that the American Medical Association 
                      (AMA), would be the "doorkeeper". The AMA was now 
                      empowered to certify or de-certify any medical school in 
                      the country on the grounds of whether that school met the 
                      AMA's standards of "approved" medicine. 
                    The 
                      AMA came into existence in 1847. It is a private organization 
                      of allopathic physicians which serves the interests of its 
                      members, especially when it comes to influencing favorable 
                      legislation. It functions in every sense of the word as 
                      a union, although its members wear white collars instead 
                      of blue. Giving the AMA the power over the certification 
                      of medical schools is the equivalent of giving the Teamsters 
                      Union the exclusive right to decide on the laws of interstate 
                      commerce and transportation. Is it any wonder that the total 
                      number of medical schools in the United States went from 
                      160 in 1906 (before the Flexner Report) to 85 in 
                      1920 and further down to 69 schools in 1944? A little like 
                      putting the fox in charge of the hen house, no?
                    Not 
                      surprisingly, Flexner ˜found' that any discipline that didn't 
                      use drugs to help cure the patient was tantamount to quackery 
                      and charlatanism. Medical schools that offered courses in 
                      bioelectric Medicine, Homeopathy or Eastern Medicine, for 
                      example, were told to either drop these courses from their 
                      curriculum or lose their accreditation and underwriting 
                      support. A few schools resisted for a time, but eventually 
                      most schools cooperated (or were closed down). A 
                      similar scenario was played out in Canada. It was attempted 
                      in England against Homeopathy, but it failed due to the 
                      personal intervention of the Royal Family who had received 
                      much relief and healing at the hands of Homeopathic healers 
                      in the 19th century. By the way, the AMA was found guilty 
                      of conspiracy against chiropractors in 1987 by a federal 
                      judge and fined a couple of million dollars. Here in America, 
                      a relentless campaign of misinformation, fraud, deception, 
                      and suppression of alternative therapies and healers has 
                      been in place for the better part of this century in order 
                      to keep highly effective alternative therapies from reaching 
                      any significant plateau of public awareness. Control is 
                      exerted through "news items" and propaganda from pro-establishment 
                      organizations like The American Medical Association, The 
                      American Cancer Society, The Diabetes Foundation, etc.; 
                      local medical boards; and government agencies like the FDA, 
                      The National Institute of Health (NIH), and The National 
                      Cancer Institute (NCI), The National Academy of Science, 
                      etc. with the full cooperation of main-stream media of course.
                    Over 
                      the past decades, hundreds of caring, concerned, and conscientious 
                      alternative healers have been jailed and abused like common 
                      criminals for the "crime" of curing people of life-threatening 
                      diseases in an "unapproved" manner by heavy-handed government 
                      agents who swoop down on clinics with drawn guns, flax jackets, 
                      and Gestapo manners. All the while, these same agents and 
                      agencies posture themselves before TV cameras and the public 
                      under the ludicrous pretense of being servants of the people 
                      and protectors of the common good.
                    The 
                      medico-drug cartel was summed up by J.W Hodge, M.D., of 
                      Niagara Falls, N.Y., in these words: 'The medical monopoly 
                      or medical trust, euphemistically called the American Medical 
                      Association, is not merely the meanest monopoly ever organized, 
                      but the most arrogant, dangerous and despotic organization 
                      which ever managed a free people in this or any other age. 
                      Any and all methods of healing the sick by means of safe, 
                      simple and natural remedies are sure to be assailed and 
                      denounced by the arrogant leaders of the AMA doctors' trust 
                      as fakes, frauds and humbugs Every practioner of the healing 
                      art who does not ally himself with the medical trust is 
                      denounced as a 'dangerous quack' and impostor by the predatory 
                      trust doctors. Every sanitarian who attempts to restore 
                      the sick to a state of health by natural means without resort 
                      to the knife or poisonous drugs, disease imparting serums, 
                      deadly toxins or vaccines, is at once pounced upon by these 
                      medical tyrants and fanatics, bitterly denounced, vilified 
                      and persecuted to the fullest extent.'
                    (see 
                      The Drug Story for more revelations about the AMA, the House 
                      of Rockefeller and the pharmaceutical industry) 
                    At 
                      long last, however, the public's consciousness seems to 
                      have finally reached a critical mass and is now beginning 
                      to seriously question the efficacy and appropriateness of 
                      using orthodox therapies and allopathic medicine in general. 
                      Thank God. It's been too long overdue.
                    Understanding 
                      the Nature of Ill Health and Disease
                    The 
                      entire approach and foundation of Orthodox Medicine is based 
                      on Luis Pasteur's Germ Theory, a flawed concept. A disease 
                      condition is viewed by the orthodoxy as an isolated event, 
                      confined to the area in which it manifests itself (E.g. 
                      an ear infection, eye infection, gum infection, lung cancer, 
                      skin cancer, etc. ). Under this theory, for unknown 
                      reasons, microbes or tumors indiscriminately grow in the 
                      patient and must be cut (surgery), burned (radiation), 
                      or poisoned (drugs) out of the body. In the orthodox 
                      model, the solution is sought through mechanical and chemical 
                      means. Seeking to understand WHY the infection or disease 
                      condition appeared in the first place, is not seriously 
                      explored. The quick fix with a prescription for drugs to 
                      smother the symptoms is the typical orthodox 'answer'.
                    A 
                      contemporary of Pasteur, Antoine Beauchamp, had a different 
                      opinion as to why disease conditions 'took hold'. Beauchamp 
                      felt that the ENVIRONMENT, or the ECOLOGY of the blood played 
                      the critical role in deciding whether disease conditions 
                      would manifest or not.
                    Alternative 
                      medicine explores the stressors (environmental, biological, 
                      chemical, psychological, and emotional) in a patient's 
                      life that cause a weakening of a particular energy field; 
                      which in turn allows the manifestation of a disease condition 
                      in a weakened area. In order to maintain a state of health, 
                      all energy systems within the body need to exist in a state 
                      of balance or equilibrium. Imbalance leads to conditions 
                      of discomfort (dis-ease) which eventually spirals 
                      into ill health if not corrected. The Chinese and Indians 
                      (Ayurvedic medicine) had worked all of this out thousands 
                      of years ago.
                    Orthodox 
                      or Allopathic Medicine utilizes poisonous substances (drugs) 
                      in non-lethal dosages in order to suppress symptoms in an 
                      affected area. This approach neither addresses the cause 
                      of the disease condition, nor is it responsible for healing 
                      the patient. Rather, the use of drugs often will temporarily 
                      mask the outer manifestations of the malady, while at the 
                      same time, drive the disease deeper into the body...only 
                      to reappear at a later date, as a more serious, and chronic 
                      health threat. One of the many flaws of the orthodox approach 
                      is that it focuses on the disease condition itself, rather 
                      than the patient. The term wholistic (or holistic) 
                      originally sprang up to distinguish those physicians whose 
                      diagnostic gestalt considers all of the physical, emotional, 
                      and spiritual energies interacting with the patient.
                    
                       
                        | Do 
                          not assume that the only difference between allopathic 
                          and alternative medicine, however, is an honest difference 
                          of opinion in the philosophies and views on the origin 
                          of disease states. Hardly! There is, in truth, a concerted, 
                          organized agenda -concocted, planned, and contrived 
                          by the international pharmaceutical companies and organized 
                          medicine to suppress any and every alternative, non-drug 
                          therapy that WORKS. | 
                       
                        | Why? | 
                       
                        | Because 
                          they want people to keep on coming back for more treatments 
                          and more drugs. | 
                       
                        | A 
                          cured patient is a lost source of income. | 
                       
                        | A 
                          sick patient who is marginally "improved" is a manageable 
                          patient. | 
                    
                    Managing 
                      patients means routine office visits and renewing of drug 
                      prescriptions. Therefore, a manageable patient is a continuing 
                      source of income; a cash cow if you will. Multiply that 
                      by a few hundred million people and you get an idea why 
                      this deceit is being put upon you. The profits from the 
                      so called "health-care" industry are staggering!
                    The 
                      thrust of the orthodox pharmaceutical agenda is to provide 
                      temporary relief, while never addressing the cause of the 
                      disease condition. This agenda insures regular visits to 
                      the doctor's office and requires the patient to routinely 
                      return to the pharmacy to refill his prescriptions. This 
                      is what the game is all about folks, plain and simple. Deny 
                      it or Deal with it,...Stick with it or Get Out of it! ... 
                      your choice.
