“Pharma” the movie…coming soon

· ·

Looking forward to this movie coming to fruition. The thalidomide story is really a story of the first big coverup of the corruptness of Big Pharma. (Things haven’t changed….. except maybe that it’s gotten worse 🙄)

Mexico Takes A Stand For Health

· ·

Do you find it interesting that Mexico….. a nation thought by many to be “behind” the USA in terms of progress…… is where many people go for actual healing? (Hope4Cancer is just one such place, and it would never be allowed to exist in the USA because of its holistic wellness. And yes, people do recover from cancer holistically under their tutelage.🙏)
The USA is so behind the times. The US RDA is a joke (if you want true health). I so appreciate that Mexico has taken a stand against sugary and other healthy foods by requiring a warning label…. not unlike what is required on cigarettes.
Remember. You are worth more as a “commodity” if you are sick and unwell than if you are healthy and fit.
You are worth it. Don’t rely solely on a system that benefits from your “un-health”.

Protecting Your Medical Freedom

· ·

This is why God led me to found the national not-for-profit cooperative, Blessed By His Blood. Tomorrow may seem like a normal everyday day, but for a few of us, it’s a really important day as we continue our fight for preserving medical freedom for Texans at the Texas state Capitol. It’s been a learning experience! 🤓🥴🙏 Tomorrow the rubber really hits the road. Please pray for favor on SB1584.
 
Protecting our God-given rights includes protecting our Medical Freedom. My new friend Tanya Lair is a mama bear who has been fighting for her girls’ lives. Directed blood donations have been around for decades, and yet….. we (the BBHB Board) are hearing more and more stories like the Lair families. We HAVE to stand up and protect our freedom before it’s too late. Tanya and I will both be testifying in the Texas Senate on Wednesday, and we surely would appreciate all the support and prayers. This is just one more example of the erosion of our personal rights, liberties, and the violation of the 14th Amendment.
 
Please call your Texas State Legislators and ask them to support SB1584! At some point in your life, your life or the life of someone you love could depend on this bill should you ever need blood (There are MANY reasons it’s so much safer to know your blood donor.)
 
Huge thanks to Senator Bob Hall for authoring SB1584❤️🙏!
It takes a village to keep our freedom.

Know Your Choices

· ·

As long as we’re on the topic (from yesterday’s observations about Wagovy), let’s take a look at another article about a similar injectable in wide use: Trulicity. 🧐
Here is probably the most important paragraph in the article written by John Abramson: (If you don’t have time to read the article, please at least read the excerpt 🙏)
 
” In my recent book, I talk about Trulicity—a diabetes drug that reduces the risk of heart disease. It was heavily advertised on TV and heavily marketed to doctors. But what wasn’t publicized or shared with doctors is Trulicity’s NNT—which stands for “number needed to treat.” The NNT tells you how many patients have to be treated, and for how long, for one patient to benefit from a drug. In the case of Trulicity, it turns out that you have to treat 327 people for approximately three years in order to prevent one non-fatal heart event. And treating just those 327 people over that time period would cost the public $2.7 million. Wouldn’t knowing these numbers make a difference to a doctor deciding whether to prescribe the drug? Or to a patient deciding whether to request the drug? And this is leaving aside the possible negative side effects—and the “number needed to harm” for each of them—which clinical trials often fail to monitor and more often fail to report in journal articles. “
 
Benefit versus risk friends. Know your choices! There’s a better way.

Fecal Immunological Testing or Colonoscopy?

· ·

I’ve been involved in several client, family, and friend discussions over the last couple weeks on colonoscopies. 🤓 This is another procedure we are expected to partake in as we age. While there is a time and a place for Western Medicine (and colonoscopies), I offer up this information:
There are a growing number of studies whose outcome suggests that having fecal immunological testing was AS EFFECTIVE as a colonoscopy (and without the risks) in people who are considered low risk (people with no prior history of colorectal cancer, no dark stools 💩 or rectal bleeding etc). Here’s a quote from one of the studies :
” The most relevant result of this interim analysis is that one-time screening with FIT was very similar to one-time colonoscopy with respect to the rate of detection of colorectal cancer, and there was no significant difference in the stage of tumors detected by the two strategies. ” Certainly, the colonoscopy will catch adenomas (which are benign fatty deposits), but again, this isn’t without risk.
Cologuard is a prescribed product, so you’ll need your doctor’s support in this approach. In my professional opinion, it is worth investigating.
