Dear Readers,
There is a world-wide war going on over control of health care: big pharma versus us. In this issue, the two-pronged attack of the big pharmaceutical companies is illustrated. The first report is the top ten drugs being sold in the U.S. All told, the drug business sold $216 billion in 2003! And the daily brainwash goes on to sell more. Secondly, these same companies are behind the movement to take away your supplements under the guise of protecting your health. By doing so they eliminate any competition for what they are selling. Please contact your senator and congressman and let them know that you wish to keep your health care choices. We still have a choice, but unless millions of us are heard from, that choice will shortly be history.
Not to get too serious, please take a walk outside and notice the beauty of the season. It's glorious. Have a great week.

Patients Finding Energy with BioBuilde
Having been hospitalized twice in four months for diverticulitis [an infected, irritated pouch in the large intestine], my gastrointestinal tract was severely compromised. After seeing Dr. Springer and hearing him explain that my fatigue was due to an inability to digest certain foods, such as beef and most meats, he started me on BioBuilde. After approx one week I started to feel a BIG difference. I was able to go to work and stay up past 7pm. Also I had much more energy. Though I am still on a strict diet, I feel that BioBuilde is adding all that was missing.
Thank You!

Is your bed making you sick?

DDT, Dioxins, and Mercury - It's What's For Dinner
On laboratory tests conducted on 1,300 Americans by the US Center for Disease Control and Prevention, weed and bug-killer residues were found in the bodies of everyone tested. A surprising finding was that 99 percent of Americans, including virtually all children born in recent years, had DDT residues. DDT was banned in the late 1960's. This survey suggests that Americans are coming into contact with these substances through food and the environment, despite our country's multi-million dollar efforts to . . . read the rest... »
