The recycling contradiction: Why recycling alone fails to protect the environment

Mike Adams, the Health Ranger

They're recycling soft drink cans loaded with either high-fructose corn syrup -- the sweetener that promotes obesity and mental disorders in children -- or artificial chemical sweeteners that cause cancer and neurological malfunction. I've seen people recycle prescription drug boxes and over-the-counter drug boxes. I've seen them recycle cans of household chemical cleaning products and personal care products made with all sorts of cancer-causing chemicals.

Eye-opening documentary "The Corporation" reveals the true evils behind some Big Business companies

It is psychopathic in a technically defined mental disorders kind of way. If you look at how corporations act, they are psychopathic. This helps explain why companies like the big pharmaceutical firms can continue to market and sell products that they know, literally, kill people, and yet can manage to keep them on the market year after year because they're generating profits.

Psychiatry and disease mongering: Road Rage Disorder is latest spontaneously "discovered" disease

And most of the population suffers from a variety of mental disorders that must be treated with psychotropic drugs. These are all consensus hallucinations. There are many more, in case you're curious. During the dot-com boom, the consensus hallucination was that PE ratios meant nothing, that the laws of economics had changed, and that everybody was going to get rich selling each other little scraps of paper with increasingly large numbers written on them.

Children who refuse to cite the new, nationally-recognized Pledge will be tested for mental disorders by drug-toting psychiatrists who are standing by, waiting for something to happen that gives their meaningless lives some purpose. "Many mentally disturbed children are not receiving treatment," grinned one psychiatrist, frantically thumbing through the DSM-IV manual. "It is our responsibility to treat them all. You're not against helping children, are you?

The Honest Food Guide empowers consumers with independent information about foods and health

I say that mental disorders are not caused by a lack of drugs, so why would you think that adding drugs to someone's brain would eliminate these disorders? What are they really caused by? Well, they are caused by nutritional problems. They are caused by the consumption of hydrogenated oils, for one big thing. This is poison for your brain and nervous system. It creates birth defects. It competes with the absorption of essential fatty acids.

Outrage! Preschoolers used as guinea pigs in psychotropic drug tests

But psychiatry has no common sense, and no one in the industry dares mention that most so-called mental disorders are really just caused by nutritional imbalances. Because to admit to the truth about the mental health of children would be to render their careers irrelevant. And no psychiatrist is going to commit career suicide by admitting that bi-polar disorder was just made up, or that toddlers need good food, not expensive drugs.

Selling Sickness: How the World's Biggest Pharmaceutical Companies Are Turning Us All into Patients

While the industry's marketing might help to narrow the focus on to chemical causes and chemical solutions, it also helps to promote wide estimates of how many people are affected by mental disorders like depression. Over the past decade many of us have heard repeatedly that perhaps a third of the population suffers with a mental illness. A major source for that figure was a survey of Americans conducted in the early 1990s, which claimed to have found that in any given year, 30 percent of people had a mental disorder.

Disease Economy: How the United States economy runs on "treating" chronic disease

What you do is change the definition of mental disorders and make up new ones. One of the biggest questions right now is the marketing of adult attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, or adult ADHD. It is a made-up disease. What are the symptoms of this disease? You have too many things on your mind, you can't keep track of everything you need to get done and you are easily distracted. What adult doesn't meet those criteria? We all do, because modern society is a busy place.

Healing foods beat statin drugs for lowering high cholesterol

They can cause muscle-wasting diseases; they can cause chronic muscle pain, which can be misdiagnosed as fibromyalgia; they cause mental disorders including brain fog, loss of memory, and signs of dementia or Alzheimer's. These drugs inhibit the production of healthy cholesterol in your body, meaning they interfere with sex hormones and the normal healthy functioning of the endocrine system. These are drugs that are only appropriate for short-term use if any use at all. No patient in the world should be taking statin drugs for longer than 30 days at a time in my opinion.

And when your population is drugged up from childhood to old age on drugs that cause brain fog and mental disorders, then that population can't think straight. This, in turn, means the U.S. will soon be unable to compete on either labor jobs or brain jobs. Just compare your average U.S. high school with a high school in India if you don't believe me. The students in India are doing college-level academic work while U.S. students can barely read. That's not an exaggeration. And let's not even talk about basic math, like calculating a 15% tip at a restaurant.

They are nothing but empty carbohydrates, and that's why they contribute to obesity, adult onset type 2 diabetes, and even mental disorders like depression, mood swings, aggressive and violent behavior in young males or attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). These refined grains and sugars cause many of the health problems experienced by wealthy nations. What if you could replace some of those ingredients with something that was loaded with outstanding nutrition?

They've taken the germ theory of disease and applied it to everything, including cancer, osteoporosis and even mental disorders like depression, behavior disorders and nervousness. These are not diseases. No real solutions from conventional medicine Conventional medicine does not have the answers we need here. We need to look beyond that. It's time to close that sad, dark chapter of human history. It's time to move on. It's time to get closer to nature. It's time to recognize that the best pharmaceutical factories in the world are found in the DNA blueprints in seeds provided by nature.

Food Prescriptions A deficiency of any single nutrient can alter brain function and lead to depression, anxiety, and other mental disorders, especially deficiencies of vitamin B12, folic acid, other B vitamins, and omega-3 fatty acids. Alcohol utilizes many of these nutrients in its metabolism, and drinking alcohol regularly replaces calories one would otherwise get from food. In this case, nutrients are just not adequately consumed, and those that are consumed are often needed to rid the body of the alcohol. In the case of hypothyroidism, inadequate iodine intake can be a cause.

After years of working in mines, workers would often suffer from crippling neurological and mental disorders. Many powerful men were reduced to frail, trembling weaklings wracked with multiple neurological problems. The same conditions also existed in mirror-manufacturing plants where mercury was used in combination with tin to make the mirrored surface. But perhaps the most widespread use of mercury was in medications, especially those used to treat syphilis. These medications were combined in creative ways and used in both children and adults.

Again acknowledging the concern, Spitzer and his supporters responded that similar arguments could be made about many established mental disorders. For example, they argued, depression was simply an extreme form of sadness. Spitzer's point was that with these sorts of disorders, a lot of care must always be taken in defining the boundary between what is normal and what is sick. But Spitzer did not explain how those boundaries are supposed to survive the whirlwind of mass marketing deliberately designed to blur them.

Rather than definitively state that there is "no definitive lesion, laboratory test, or abnormality in brain tissue that can identify the illness," like the pharmaceutical companies that qualify the chemical imbalance with "may" or "believed" to be the cause of depression, Satcher qualifies the statement "diagnosing mental disorders is often believed to be more difficult..." "Often believed to be?
The APA's non-scientific manual of alleged mental disorders, the DSM-IV (the psychiatric billing bible) provides subjective diagnostic criteria to parents and clinicians to help identify this alleged mental illness so that appropriate treatment/drug recommendations can be made. According to the APA, any six of the following 18 subjective behaviors must be met before a child or adult can be diagnosed with the mental illness, ADHD: /. often fails to give close attention to details or makes careless mistakes in schoolwork, work, or other activities 2.

Drugs can also cause mental disorders, such as anxiety, panic, and depression; kidney failure from excessive urine production (this is especially a problem for alcoholics); stroke and impotence, as a result of a depressed central nervous system; and a host of other disorders that result from a suppressed immune system. Substance abuse is the leading cause of traffic fatalities and plays a significant role in homicides, suicides, spousal and child abuse, and other violent acts. Effective treatment begins when an addict makes the decision to give up drugs or alcohol.

Depression and mental disorders can be prevented and treated with simple healing foods A study published in the February 15, 2005 issue of Biological Psychiatry shows that certain foods are better at treating depression than antidepressant drugs. The study found that omega-3 fatty acids and foods high in a compound called uridine were able to reduce the symptoms of depression, as well as or better than, three different antidepressant drugs that were tested. This research was conducted at the McLean Hospital, which is affiliated with Harvard.
Patients with mental disorders are being turned into guinea pigs. The U.S. government recently removed a requirement that psychiatric drugs be subjected to long-term safety testing. Now they only have to be tested for eight weeks before being approved. And then a patient can be put on them for life. Think about it: these kids were taking antidepressants when they aimed and fired automatic weapons at their classmates and teachers. And yet the school districts are insisting that more children be put on these drugs! Now, I knew there were problems with the public school system.
Also, drugs for mental disorders and depression cause serious harm to the pancreas while disrupting normal blood glucose metabolism, ultimately promoting diabetes. As these drugs cause harm, your body will eventually begin to show symptoms of yet another disorder or disease, and that disease will again be diagnosed as something else that needs yet more prescription drugs.

People who consume the largest amounts of meat, especially red meat, tend to have the most mental disorders. Irritability is also caused by blood sugar disorders, because consuming refined sugars and carbohydrates causes an initial spike in blood sugar, followed a few hours later by a drop in blood sugar. It is during this drop that the brain is missing out on its fuel, and when that happens, people's moods and behavior start to change. Some people can become irritable, and if the condition is allowed to continue, they can even become aggressive or violent.

Cirrhosis begins with fever, indigestion, bowel problems, andjaundice; and eventuates bleeding, bruises, fluid accumulation in the abdomen (avoid Sodium), anemia, mental disorders, kidney failure, osteomalacia, and many infections.
