Understanding How the Pharmaceutical Industry Works

[Guest guest]

This is very well written... And if taken one step farther,

completely explains why GMO's are being allowed to permanently

invade our food cycle...

Hope you enjoy,

The Laws of the Pharmaceutical Industry

 

The corporate hierarchy flows like this: Oil, chemicals,

pharmaceuticals -- all three of which poison the human frame and

pollute the environment. The interests of corporations and the

interests of governments have merged. Government sets policies and

passes laws forcing the world to accept the Big Three's toxic

arsenal into their bodies, into their air, into their water and into

their food. Record numbers of people, animals and ecosystems are

sickening and dying from over exposure to these known toxins, yet

government refuses to amend its policies where oil, chemicals and

pharmaceuticals are concerned. Following is a description of the

principles guiding the Big Three's murky light into our lives. It is

paramount that people understand the relationship of poison

producers and the governments enabling them.

 

by Dr. Matthias Rath

 

1. The pharmaceutical industry is an investment industry driven by

the profits of its shareholders. Improving human health is not the

driving force of this industry.

 

2. The pharmaceutical investment industry was artificially created

and strategically developed over an entire century by the same

investment groups that control the global petrochemical and chemical

industries.

 

3. The huge profits of the pharmaceutical industry are based on the

patenting of new drugs. These patents essentially allow drug

manufacturers to arbitrarily define the profits for their products.

 

4. The marketplace for the pharmaceutical industry is the human

body -- but only for as long as the body hosts diseases. Thus,

maintaining and expanding diseases is a precondition for the growth

of the pharmaceutical industry.

 

5. A key strategy to accomplish this goal is the development of

drugs that merely mask symptoms while avoiding the curing or

elimination of diseases. This explains why most prescription drugs

marketed today have no proven efficacy and merely target symptoms.

 

6. To further expand their pharmaceutical market, the drug companies

are continuously looking for new applications (indications) for the

use of drugs they already market. For example, Bayer's pain pill

Aspirin is now taken by 50 million healthy U.S. citizens under the

illusion it will prevent heart attacks.

 

7. Another key strategy to expand pharmaceutical markets is to cause

new diseases with drugs. While merely masking symptoms short term,

most of the prescription drugs taken by millions of patients today

cause a multitude of new diseases as a result of their known long-

term side effects. For example, all cholesterol-lowering drugs

currently on the market are known to increase the risk of developing

cancer -- but only after the patient has been taking the drug for

several years.

 

8. The known deadly side effects of prescription drugs are the

fourth leading cause of death in the industrialized world, surpassed

only by the number of deaths from heart attacks, cancer and strokes

(Journal of the American Medical Association, April 15, 1998). This

fact is no surprise either, because drug patents are primarily

issued for new synthetic molecules. All synthetic molecules need to

be detoxified and eliminated from the body, a system that frequently

fails and results in an epidemic of severe and deadly side effects.

 

9. While the promotion and expansion of diseases increase the market

of the pharmaceutical investment industry - prevention and root

cause treatment of diseases decrease long-term profitability;

therefore, they are avoided or even obstructed by this industry.

 

10. Worst of all, the eradication of diseases is, by its very

nature, incompatible with and diametrically opposed to the interests

of the pharmaceutical investment industry. The eradication of

diseases now considered as potential drug markets will destroy

billions of investment dollars and eventually will eliminate this

entire industry.

 

11. Vitamins and other effective natural health therapies that

optimize cellular metabolism threaten the pharmaceutical " business

with disease " because they target the cellular cause of today's most

common diseases -- and these natural substances cannot be patented.

 

12. Throughout the more than one hundred year existence of the

pharmaceutical industry, vitamins and other essential nutrients,

with defined functions as cofactors in cellular metabolism, have

been the fiercest competition and the greatest threat to the long-

term success of the pharmaceutical investment business.

 

13. Vitamins and other effective natural health therapies that

effectively prevent diseases are incompatible with the very nature

of the pharmaceutical " business with disease. "

 

14. To protect the strategic development of its investment business

against the threat from effective, natural and non-patentable

therapies, the pharmaceutical industry has -- over an entire

century - used the most unscrupulous methods, such as:

 

(1) Withholding life-saving health information from millions of

people. It is simply unacceptable that today so few know that the

human body cannot produce vitamin C and lysine, two key molecules

for connective tissue stability and disease prevention.

 

(2) Discrediting natural health therapies. The most common way is

through global PR campaigns organized by the Pharma-Cartel that

spread lies about the alleged side effects of natural substances --

molecules that have been used by Nature for millennia.

 

(3) Banning by law the dissemination of information about natural

health therapies. To that end, the pharmaceutical industry has

placed its lobbyists in key political positions in key markets and

leading drug export nations.

 

15. The pharmaceutical " business with disease " is the largest

deception and fraud business in human history. The product " health "

promised by drug companies is not delivered to millions of patients.

Instead, the " products " most often delivered are the opposite: new

diseases and frequently, death.

 

16. The survival of the pharmaceutical industry is dependent on the

elimination by any means of effective natural health therapies.

These natural and non-patentable therapies have become the treatment

of choice for millions of people despite the combined economic,

political and media opposition of the world's largest investment

industry.

orthomolecular medicine (the use of high-potency supplements and

nutritional therapy to correct bodily imbalances at the root of ill

health). He has also been on the front lines of the world-wide

effort to stop Codex Alimentarius -- organized medicines's attempt

to use governments to regulate vitamins, herbs, botanicals and

supplements so that a licensed physician will be required before

people may obtain them for health purposes.
