Are Environmental Chemicals Making You Fat?
For the past 20-30 years people are getting fatter. Diet soda, low fat this, non fat that have not helped. A million diet books, programs, pills, supplements, have not mattered. Could it be our chemical saturated bodies that are the cause of this epidemic? Could our body's natural weight control system be overloaded and poisoned with toxic chemicals and lead to obesity?
Skin care products, cleaning products, food additives, pesticides, plastics, petrochemicals, drugs, etc., etc. Since these are fat soluble, and difficult to excrete, is the body creating more fat in order to increase the storage area for them?

Environmental Mercury Contamination On the Rise
The environmental and public health threat, especially to children and women of childbearing age, from environmental mercury remains significant. It is estimated that as many as 600,000 babies suffer from irreversible brain damage because pregnant mothers have eaten mercury contaminated fish. This is according to the Environmental Protection Agency. There are more than 8000 lakes and rivers streams in the United States compromised by mercury toxicity.

Testimonial
"My Dear Friend Susan. You are such a blessing in my life and I thank God for you. Since November, I have gone from a listless (inside and out), emotional, ill-feeling person to a vibrant, energetic, life-loving person. I have gone from sitting and crying all day to tackling the world with enthusiasm.
I feel better than I have done in about 10 years. You gave me new hope and I am down 19lb, I feel young and when people ask me what I am doing to feel this way I steer people your way and tell them to get ready to feel good! You encouraged me to see Dr Springer, who is another blessing in my life. He is amazing! Susan Bucci is also helping me. You have an incredible office and I don't know how you do your job every day with people in the shape I was in but I am sure glad you do!
Thank you so much." S.B.

Modern Epidemic Disease - What is Behind it
To find what people are suffering from, look no farther that what pharmaceutical companies are targeting. This includes: hormone problems, lowered libido and fertility, fatigue, lowered immunity, high cholesterol, arthritis, insulin resistance, obesity and cancer.

Guess Who the Drug Culture is Targeting Now
To maintain its empire, Big Pharma needs customers. Age is no barrier. The average nursing home senior is on six or more drugs: for high cholesterol, high blood sugar, arthritis pain, sleep, high blood pressure, and depression. Sometimes it takes two drugs for each symptom. But to expand, why not penetrate the other end of the age spectrum? Amphetamines for school children has been an easy sell. So have antidepressants. And antibiotics by the mega-ton for any cough or cold or runny nose. And the latest, why not acid reflux drugs for infants? The adult market for GERD (gastroesophogeal reflux disease) has been a mega billion dollar market in adults. Why not create it in infants? And so they did.
