There is more than a casual association between GM foods and adverse health
effects. There is causation as defined by Hill’s Criteria in the areas of
strength of association, consistency, specificity, biological gradient, and
biological plausibility.5 The strength of association and consistency
between GM foods and disease is confirmed in several animal studies. …
“Multiple animal studies have shown that GM foods cause damage to various organ
systems in the body. With this mounting evidence, it is imperative to have a
moratorium on GM foods for the safety of our patients’ and the public’s health …
Fundamentally the science of genetic engineering is crap. One gene expressing
one protein is the basis of genetic engineering, but the Human Genome Project
discovered 23,000 genes, and there are 200,000 proteins in every cell. With this
discovery, genetic engineering should have disappeared into the dustbin, but the
biotechnology industry is so strong. Genetic engineering is a product driven
technology. If you have enough money to throw at it, you can do many things. But
the industry won’t waste money on safety assessment. …
Biological psychiatry involves examining the role of how the brain functions
in the production of psychiatric disorders. It could be chemical (such as in
depression), anatomical (such as in schizophrenia or brain trauma), or
genetic.
Those things are important in neuropsychiatry too, but biological psychiatry
does not focus on the treatment of those individuals with neurologic disorders.
Neuropsychiatry does.
Some scientists say the most recent global outbreak — the 1977 Russian flu —
was started by a virus created and leaked from a laboratory. According to Gibbs,
the swine flu may have “evolved” and originated in a similar fashion. …
Since depression can be a terminal illness, why would you want to take a drug
that would actually increase your risk of killing yourself or someone else? …
the scientist who has solved the mystery of autism …
“Taken together with similar data that shows its importance in reducing
arthritis, osteoporotic fractures, as well as heart disease and some cancers,
this underscores the importance of vitamin D for humans and why evolution gave
us a liking for the sun. …
From the 1980’s forward he was widely publicized for being able to run an
automobile using only water as fuel. He achieved this by first fractionating the
water into a mix of hydrogen and oxygen gas and then feeding this to the engine. …
A three-second burst of 140 volts blasts through Sandford’s brain.
While
he’s totally unconscious, Sandford’s torso jerks up and down.
His arms and
legs writhe only slightly, steadied by muscle relaxants
coursing through his
veins. Sandford’s toes curl downward, as if his
feet were trying ball up
into fists. He’s experiencing a grand mal
seizure. …
