Vaccination: Pain, Profit, and Politics - Part 1
By Gary Null, Ph.D., and Martin Feldman, M.D. Today we have a major controversy brewing in the U.S. healthcare field. The question is being asked if the vaccinations that we are giving our children are safe and effective. What is the proof that vaccinations are safe? We have undertaken an enormous job of reviewing the world literature to examine whether vaccinations are safe, and whether they are effective. We have taken an in depth look at the politics, the economic incentives, and the conflicts of interest involved in the politics of vaccinations. We have reviewed the scientific literature and we have examined the results on the people who have received vaccinations and the health effects of these (often mandated) medical procedures. We have examined here the myths versus the facts in the science of vaccines, and whether the procedures themselves represent good science or whether the manufacturers and physicians who provide them support conjecture or good scientific practice. We have examined the lobbying on behalf of the vaccine makers, and we have examined the safety and efficacy of the dozens of vaccinations that children are receiving in the first months of life. Our society rarely looks at the safety and efficacy of medical manufactures which have enormous power to influence the decisions of the CDC, the FDA, and the Institutes of Allergy and Infectious Disease[1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] [8] [9] [10], but the media rarely hears of the trajedies and the side effects. We do, however, hear that vaccines promise to prevent some new condition, (such as genital warts.[11] [12] [13]) However, we have innundated the developing baby's body with dozens of vaccines[14], but no industry advisor or anyone in the FDA has ever suggested that this is too much. We are overwhelming the child's system with adverse effects, and all this has happened in the last 40 years. To Read Complete Article |

What is Healthcare?
From its inception Chiropractic has been focused on a true healthcare paradigm. Chiropractic is based on a vitalistic philosophy that respects the power of the innate healing ability of the body. For health to be actualized the proper circumstances and building blocks must also be present (see 6 Facets of Health - left column). The importance of a properly functioning nervous system (protected by the spine and cranium) is paramount to the process.
Your nervous system, simply put, controls and coordinates the function of all cells, tissues, organs, and systems in your body 24 hours a day 7 days a week. It is constantly monitoring every aspect of your life and functional capabilities and trying to adapt, correct or repair your body when and where necessary.
The main conduits - spinal and cranial nerves - that are responsible for the maintenance and function of this system are protected by the boney structures of your skull and spinal column. The integrity of these structures directly affects the ability of these nerves to function at an optimal level.
Chiropractic is based on the evaluation and correction of aberrant spinal and cranial bone function that directly effects the ability of the nervous system to perform its work. This is the first step to attaining real health - a nervous system that is functioning to its optimal potential.

Resolution of Colic in an Eight Week Old Infant Undergoing Chiropractic Care: A Case Study
Ron R. Castellucci, BS, ACP, DC
Journal of Pediatric, Maternal & Family Health - Chiropractic ~ Volume 2012 ~ Issue 4 ~ Pages 109-112
Objective: To report the outcome of chiropractic care using light impulse finger adjustments on an 8 week old infant who was diagnosed with infantile colic.
Clinical Features: An 8 week old female patient presented to the office with classic symptoms of colic. It was reported by the mother that the patient cried for up to 5 hours at a time and that she appeared to wince in pain upon making a bowel movement. The crying spells often lasted well into the night.
Interventions and Outcomes: The treatment protocol was limited to chiropractic spinal analysis using static, motion and muscle palpation followed by chiropractic care using light impulse finger adjustments in the supine and side posture positions. The segmental levels that were addressed were C1 and T11. Plan of care included 8 visits over 4 weeks. Improvements were seen after one visit and complete resolution of the symptoms were seen after 8 visits. After one year mom reports that the condition has not returned and the patient is a healthy, thriving one year old.
Conclusion: The case of an 8 week old infant with colic is presented. Significant improvement, followed by complete resolution of the condition was observed following the initiation of chiropractic care. More research is certainly warranted in the area of colic and the potential benefits of chiropractic care. The minimally invasive approach of chiropractic adjustments and results observed in the literature suggests that chiropractic could be included in the treatment protocols for infants who present with the condition of colic.

Alzheimer's is Preventable -- Video from Neal Barnard MD
Everyone knows by now that fruits and vegetables promote health, and animal products promote disease. Just this month another in the thousands of studies -- this one showing that over the 20 year study period, of men who had prostate cancer, those who ate a lot of fruits and veggies were 40% less likely to have the aggressive, fatal form of prostate cancer than those who ate more animal products.
That's cancer. Now what about your brain?
Today we bring you a fascinating excerpt from a recent presentation by venerated researcher and PCRM president -- Neal Barnard MD.
Listen as Dr. Barnard tells what research clearly shows about the decline of the brain -- and most importantly, how you can dramatically reduce your chances of becoming an Alzheimer's statistic.

Documentary Reveals How the Medical and Pharmaceutical Industry Conspire to Maintain a Failing Business Model__________________________
Did you know that while the United States makes up only five percent of the world's population, we consume over 50 percent of all the world's pharmaceutical drugs?
This sobering statistic and much more is revealed in Jeff Hays' documentary film, Doctored. The primary focus of the film is on the chiropractic profession and its long-standing struggle to be recognized as authentic health professionals.
The film includes the groundbreaking and historical case of Wilk vs. The American Medical Association (AMA) - a case in which the AMA was ultimately found guilty of an illegal conspiracy to "contain and eliminate the chiropractic profession," in 1984. The Supreme Court ordered the AMA to cease their illegal treatment of the chiropractic profession, and in the years since, chiropractic has slowly but surely established its usefulness and scientific merit.
