The Pharmaceutical industry turns over huge profits every year. Pfizer is the worlds largest Pharmaceutical company. In 2016 the company generated 52.8billion US Dollars. Other big players include Glaxocline Smith, Merck, Johnston & Johnston among many others. This is big business a lot of money is involved here, in order for these companies to continue turning over a profit each year they need a steady supply of sick people. The drugs they provide may cure the patients symptoms in the short term but what are the long term effects on the overall health of the person. These drugs are nothing more than a sticking plaster over the problem. This type of medicine only treats the symptoms, its not a magic cure. These products come with some awful side effects, seeing people on prescription medication for life and a constant cycle of customers for Big Pharma.
Recently Johnston & Johnston were ordered by a US court to pay $110 million to a woman who developed cancer after using it's talcum powder. We are hearing these story's too often. Big pharma is not safe , we are nothing more than guinea pigs while big pharma makes a killing... literally . Look at the amount of vaccines that are added to the schedule each year. Look at the rise in amount of children developing Autisim. Big Pharma to me seems like a conveyor belt of misery and illness, it has killed more people than it has actually cured.
Mother nature on the other hand has a cure for every illness all it takes is a little research before running off the the doctor for prescription med's. Most people will already have most of this stuff in their food cupboard, if they haven't they should!
Stock up on things like Turmeric, onions, garlic, lemons, coconut oil and raw honey (Manhuka honey if possible). These are natural products given to us by mother nature not only beneficial as cures, but can they can also aid in the daily chemical free cleaning/ hygiene routine.
