$3 Billion Drug fraud - Criminal Drugs for Max Revenues

(NaturalNews) British registered company, GlaxoSmithKline, faces $3 billion in penalties after pleading guilty to the biggest health care fraud case in history. GSK admitted that physicians had been bribed to push potentially dangerous drugs in exchange for Madonna tickets, Hawaiian holidays, cash and lucrative speaking tours. They also admitted distributing misleading information regarding the antidepressant Paxil. The report claimed that it was suitable for children, but failed to acknowledge data from studies proving its ineffectiveness in children and adolescents.

GSK faced charges that they had used the gifts to sell three drugs that were either unsafe, or used for purposes that were not approved. The first drug, Paxil also known as Seroxat, was touted as safe and effective for children and adolescents. The ineffectiveness of Paxil, and the link to suicides, meant that it was banned for kids under 18-years-olds in 2008. The second drug, Avandia was used in Britain to treat diabetes until it was withdrawn due to safety fears, including increased risk of heart attacks. The US government claimed that GSK had attempted to conceal the data surrounding the dangers.

The third drug, Wellbrutin is used in the UK for treating depression, but it was alleged that GSK had recommended physicians used it for ADHD, lost libido and as a slimming aid. None of which were approved uses for the drug.

The moral code of Big Pharma companies exposed Sir Andrew Witty, chief executive of GSK said "Whilst these offenses originate in a different era for the company, they cannot and will not be ignored. On behalf of GSK, I want to express our regret and reiterate that we have learned from the mistakes that were made. We are deeply committed to doing everything we can to live up to and exceed the expectations of those we work with and serve. In the US, we have taken action at all levels in the company. We have fundamentally changed our procedures for compliance, marketing and selling." US attorney for Massachusetts, Carmen Ortiz said: "The GSK sales force bribed physicians to prescribe GSK products using every imaginable form of high priced entertainment, from Hawaiian vacations to paying doctors millions of dollars to go on speaking tours, to a European pheasant hunt, to tickets to Madonna concerts." This is the biggest settlement in the history of drug industries, ahead of the 2009 Pfizer case in which it was fined $2.2 billion for promoting four drugs for unapproved uses. In 2010, GSK paid $96 million to a whistle-blower who exposed contamination problems and a management cover up in Puerto Rico.

The practice of pushing drugs for unapproved uses is endemic within the drug industries. Two of the largest drug companies have been caught and fined huge amounts for chasing sales targets using any means necessary. It proves that the health of customers, even children, ranks lower on the companies' agenda than profit. Using bribes to get doctors to prescribe drugs shows a complete lack of moral fiber from both sales teams and the doctors. After this case, surely the doctors also need to face the courts for their conduct. Whilst the amounts of money seem to be a huge punishment for GSK, the settlement is merely a slap on the wrist for a company whose market value is $133 billion. Can we trust another multinational that promises to clean up its act, when others have promised the same, only to behave just as recklessly but much more surreptitiously.

Cancer victims have a pH that is too acidic. Raise pH with Baking Soda & Alkaline Diet

Dr. Otto Heinrich Warburg, 1931 Nobel Prize Winner demonstrated that all forms of cancer are characterized by 2 basic conditions: acidosis & hypoxia (lack of oxygen). “Cancerous tissues are acidic, whereas healthy tissues are alkaline. Cancer can't survive in an alkaline body or in Oxygen. All people with Cancer have a pH that is too acidic.

1931 Dr. Otto Warburg, 2X Nobel Prize Winner proved that all forms of cancer are characterized by 2 basic conditions: acidosis & hypoxia (lack of oxygen). “Cancerous tissues are acidic, healthy tissues are alkaline. Cancer can't survive in an alkaline body or in Oxygen. All people with Cancer have a pH that is too acidic. High pH kills cancer cells ! 99% of terminal cancer victims are 1,000x more acidic than normal.  --------------------------------------------------

“In the last 93 years, there have been only two monumental works that have succeeded in explaining the actual cause and treatment of cancer: No. 1 is the Nobel Prize-winning German physician and scientist, Otto Warburg, M.D., Ph.D. work, The Metabolism of Tumours, published in Germany in1910. No. 2 is Professor Brian Scott Peskin’s The Hidden Story of Cancer, which details a scientific breakthrough that explains Dr. Warburg’s research and introduces new science that will prevent cancer. This is undoubtedly a breakthrough of biblical proportions.” Bernardo C. Majalca, N.D. (Stage Four Cancer Researcher)

Almost ALL diseases/illnesses require an ACIDIC environment to flourish . Create Alkalinity (high ph-7.8 +) & the enhanced Oxygen environment will terminate their existence in your cells. 

Eat ONLY Alkaline organic foods, filtered water, green tea, walk 30+ minutes per day, & consider using 9+ pH Baking Soda as in DJP Baking Soda Protocol

To fight Cancer, you have to understand it

To fight Cancer, you have to understand it

For all that want to understand how cancer works, there is a wealth of information out there that explains the causes, lifestyle factors, Diet, stress, Chemicals, etc. Cancer lives in an acidic, anaerobic environment. So, it stands to reason that a strict vegan diet of organic vegetables, some raw, Green teas, NO packaged or Fast foods, would correct that acidic environment. It brings the pH back to neutral or even alkaline, it oxygenates the blood, and it provides the body with the resources it needs to fight the cancer fight itself.

Many sources site animal protein as a culprit. It's more all mainstream food because of the toxic way it is processed and preserved. Xenoestrogens from chemicals used on non-organic plants are just as involved in ill health as hormone laden animal products. When ill, detoxing with an organic vegan diet containing lots of superfoods is the best place to start - you need lots of extra ORACs, vitamins, minerals, enzymes, etc. Take therapeutic doses of things like vitamin D/D3, coq10, garlic, astralagus, sun chlorella, vitamin C. A balanced diet of all organic food is fine for maintaining health. Alkalinity is the KEY! There's no way for any of us to completely avoid the DNA damage that leads to abnormal cells. The Cancer Society says that 50% of American men and 33% of American women will develop some form of cancer in their lives. Causes are not just from poor diet, smoking or alcohol, lack of exercise, and environmental pollution. It can also come from genetics, viruses, and exposure to chemicals from a variety of places. The best we can do is to take care of our Immune Systems/bodies in a way that limits the number of cells damaged and the severity of the damage so that our bodies can keep up with destroying the abnormal cells and maintaining cellular equilibrium. What is surprising... We can't separate what we eat from our health. It's not surprising that a good diet begets good health. What is surprising is that modern medical practitioners don't address that angle more often, though they are doing so more and more recently. What is surprising is that nutrition is not always taught in medical school. How can that be? Would you take your car to a mechanic that doesn't understand the fuel system? Don't you expect your children's teachers to be educated in education?

Something else that is surprising is that using diet and ancient treatments is called "alternative" even though there is a longer history of using acupuncture or eating garlic, turmeric, and organic antioxidant-rich foods than the radical, barbaric modern treatments of radical mastectomies, chemotherapy, radiation, and hysterectomies. What is shocking is that we're hardly counseled in nutrition, but fully expected to take extremely poisonous pharmaceuticals that are often more deadly than the original illness. We are sharing the planet with billion other souls now, with more coming daily. The world is increasingly toxic and having good health is becoming more of a decision than luck. Even some of us that exercise and eat well will become sick. Good food can only increase our chances of survival, let alone quality of life. Clearly the American Medical Assoc ("AMA") has been, & is, a Powerful medical overseer that has a "No Heal No Cure" agenda that also does not seek causes sp as to max medical revenues at the expense of health.
