Rockefeller Medicine: A Poisonous Illusion?
This story is about the famous 1910 Flexner Report that laid the foundations of the modern medical system, dubbed “Rockefeller medicine.” It is also about the fascinating dynamic that exists between the ego, the plight of a “respectable” scammer, and the trajectory of the world. Who Was Flexner? Abraham Flexner was born in 1866 in Louisville, Kentucky. He lived until 1959. For several years, he ran a college prep school in his home town of Louisville. In 1908, Flexner published “The American College: A...

In the video above, Lex Fridman interviews Oliver Stone about the Russia-Ukraine conflict. Stone, an award-winning film director, was the executive producer of “Ukraine on Fire,”1,2 a documentary that came out in 2016.

If you’ve ever felt like Google knows what you’re going to do before you know what you’re going to do, it’s because they are tracking you.

Internal documents1 from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention show your cell phone data was used to track your movements during lockdowns and vaccine campaigns. CNET reports that some apps created by Google can store your location data and...
read moreFake Meat, Fake Breastmilk and Food Shortages
Fake food is being poised as a panacea to end world hunger and food shortages, but there’s nothing miraculous about synthetic, lab-made food. It can’t compare to food that comes from nature in terms of nutrition or environmental protection, and as we’re seeing with the mysterious infant formula shortages, when you’re dependent on fake food, your very survival is also dependent on the handful of companies that manufacture them. With parents getting desperate in the search for infant formula, it’s eye-opening that campaigns haven’t been started...
read moreWhat You Need to Know Before Getting an Implant or Hip Device
This article was previously published December 7, 2019, and has been updated with new information. A 2019 documentary, “Shady Implants: The ‘Guinea Pigs’ of the Medical Industry,” exposed corruption in the medical device industry. The film, produced by German Public Broadcast Service DW, revealed that the number of health problems associated with medical devices had risen significantly through the years. This is strongly tied to a lack of government regulation, particularly in Europe, where medical device manufacturers were...

read moreA Natural Way to Help Halt Disease-Causing Microorganisms?
This article was previously published November 21, 2019, and has been updated with new information. As your “second brain,” the state of your gut has been shown to play an important role in your neurological health. Importantly, studies have shown probiotics (beneficial bacteria) can help decrease pathological hallmarks of Alzheimer’s disease (AD), including amyloid plaques and tangles.1 One of the most impressive of these studies2 was published in Frontiers in Aging Neuroscience in 2016. Sixty elderly patients diagnosed...
read moreAntibiotics Linked to Inflammatory Bowel Disease
People over 60 who have used antibiotics may be at increased risk of developing inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), a condition characterized by chronic inflammation of the gastrointestinal (GI) tract.1 The finding, which was presented at the Digestive Disease Week conference held in San Diego, California, in May 2022, may explain the rising rates of IBD occurring among older adults. “It’s quite important to really understand what’s driving this,” lead study author Dr. Adam Faye, of New York University Langone School of...
read moreThis 500-Plant Edible Garden Mostly Cares for Itself
This article was previously published March 22, 2019, and has been updated with new information. A process known as “succession” occurs when one plant species replaces another.1 As explained in the National Geographic short film featured above, when an area is left to its own devices, it will naturally turn into a forest over time, replete with a wide variety of plant species, and this diversification occurs unaided by man. The film features a man-made “forest garden” designed to mimic this kind of naturally occurring...
read moreFDA Authorizes Pfizer Boosters for Kids 5 to 11
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration amended its emergency use authorization for the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 shot to allow a booster dose for children ages 5 to 11.1 The FDA’s “evaluation of safety” for the booster dose in young children was based on a study of only about 400 children, and no meeting was held with the Vaccines and Related Biological Products Advisory Committee. The booster shot is intended to be given at least five months after the primary two-dose series has been completed, but less than one-third — only 28.8% — of U.S....

read moreHow to Tell if You’re Overprescribed Medications
Another name for overprescribing medications is polypharmacy. The issue is snowballing as Big Pharma continues to develop prescription medications in the hope of lengthening life expectancy without addressing the underlying issues of the chronic diseases that affect the population. Polypharmacy may be thought of as the use of multiple medications at the same time by one person. While the term is commonly used, there is not a single definition for polypharmacy.1 The term appears to have been in use for over 100 years according to one article...
read moreThe Monkey Business Behind Monkeypox Propaganda
As predicted, just as hysteria about COVID-19 is winding down, another “pandemic” is poised to take its place. This time, it’s monkeypox, an infection that just so happens to mimic many of the symptoms of COVID jab-induced shingles — so much so, the Department of Health in Queensland, Australia, used the same photo to illustrate both infections (the photos have since been removed or updated1). The first European case of monkeypox was confirmed May 7, 2022, in the U.K.2 Then, seemingly overnight, cases were being reported across the world.3...

This article was previously published February 23, 2019, and has been updated with new information. The use of sewage sludge as fertilizer for your food, renamed “biosolids” by slick industry PR firms, is a growing and under-publicized threat to human health. Sewage sludge is the residue generated during the treatment of domestic waste and contains a cocktail of hazardous substances from industry, hospitals and humans — anything that is discharged into the sewage system. Some city sewer lines run right to the factories, allowing...
