Free Monthly Newsletter
on Health and the Economy
There are natural therapies
for most of our illnesses, diseases, and afflictions, some ancient and
some quite recent. Most doctors do not know about them, because their
primary source of medical information is the pharmaceutical industry, and
they are trained in medical school to be very skeptical of natural
medicine.
You will probably not find out
about them in your local newspaper or in Time or Newsweek, because
natural medicines do not pay advertising revenue. The editors and
publishers practice self-censorship - they rarely have news stories about
natural therapies that would take the place of the products of their
advertisers. They rely on the advice of medical "experts" who,
more often than not, are public relations agents of the drug companies or
doctors who know nothing about natural medicine.
I am also concerned about the economic
situation, since people's financial health is closely tied to physical
and mental health. I have been following the writings of some
"contrarian" economists who warn that our economic situation may not be
as rosy as predicted by the mainstream media.
I publish a
free monthly email newsletter called
Community
Alert and Bulletin containing information about natural
therapies and the economy and sources where you can find out more. I have
no vitamin or supplement products to sell, although I will sometimes mention a new or
unusual natural herbal formulation and the manufacturer's name, or
provide an example of a source of nutritional supplements.
