There’s a relatively recent article that I came across that deals with the trouble that pharmaceutical companies are having.  They are having major problems due to a number of factors.  The former pharmaceutical researcher (Johnathan Bloom, Ph.D.) that wrote this article speaks about the obvious factors that are negatively affecting the pharmaceutical industry.

He covers the phenomenon  of the large number of big money drug patents that are going to expire shortly. Just from expiring patents, he estimates that the Big Pharma industry will lose about $50 billion.

He also speaks on U.S. patent law, which allows a company to have exclusive rights to profits from the drugs that they produce. After taking in to consideration related issues, the effective length of the profit period is about 8 years. After that, generics are produced and the sales of the brand name drug plummet. In fact, he says that most drugs never reach a breakeven, since most of them take about a billion to develop.  In this type of pharmaceutical environment, the blockbuster multi-billion dollar profit drug is a critical element in the pharmaceutical drug paradigm. continue reading…

Although this is an orthodox chemotherapy treatment, it is substantial news, and I decided to speak about it nevertheless because of the high scrutiny under which Avastin (bevacizumab) has been subjected.  This substance already has approval for a variety of cancers, such as colon, brain, kidney, and lung cancers.

Bevacizumab (Avastin) works by blocking angiogenesis (i.e., the growth of new blood vessels that enable tumors to grow).  It is a humanized monoclonal antibody that inhibits vascular endothelial growth factor A (VEGF-A). It was the first angiogenesis inhibitor available in the United States for clinical applications.  It received its first approval for cancer treatment in 2004 when used in combination with standard chemotherapy for metastatic colon cancer and non-small cell lung cancer. continue reading…

I found an interesting article about how misleading cancer screening accuracy and statistics can be. The old saying is that there are lies, damned lies, and statistics.

The article says that Rudy Giuliani cited data comparing prostate cancer statistics from Britain versus those from the United States. The report said that in Britain, 44% of men diagnosed with prostate cancer were alive 5 years, and that in the US, about 81% of these men were alive 5 years later. He then concluded that the 5 year survival rate for prostate cancer in the US was about twice as high as that in England. continue reading…

There is a lot of controversy about the findings of a Dr Tullio Simoncini regarding the use of sodium bicarbonate for cancer therapy.  He says that based on his study and experience, cancer is a fungus, candida albicans to be exact.  He also claims that he has been having great success in the treatment of solid tumors with the use of sodium bicarbonate (baking soda).  But mainstream medical authorities like the American Cancer Society have been negative about these developments.

The American Cancer Society web site on sodium bicarbonate is precisely worded.  They never actually come out and say that baking soda does not work on cancer.  They make a bunch of leading statements about the topic.  They basically say that available scientific evidence does not support claims that cancer is caused by yeasts or molds, that sodium bicarbonate treats cancer, and that these claims are not supported by clinical or scientific evidence. continue reading…

Although there is a lot of research done on genetic causes of cancer, as well as the identification of risk factors, these do not really identify a solid cause of cancer.  The risk factors for cancer given by the National Cancer Institute (NCI) name a lot of things that are correlated with increased rates of cancer.  But they also say that the majority of people with risk factors are not ever diagnosed with cancer.  So this makes the value of risk factors dubious, at best.

Otto Warburg, a prolific researcher and Nobel Laureate, found that low oxygen levels in cells cause them to become cancerous.  He also discovered that while normal cells function from aerobic (air loving) respiration, cancer cells generate energy from anaerobic respiration.  Some think that cancer is a survival mechanism that allows cells to live in a low oxygen environment. continue reading…

I came across a Radiation Dosage Chart that gives the effects of radiation levels on people.  The chart was fairly detailed and gave a lot of information about the increasing effects of radiation at levels that people may experience in normal life, as well as in other situations.  This is some very important, as well as very revealing information. continue reading…

An Essex Superior Court jury found a mother who withheld cancer treatments from her autistic son guilty of attempted murder and assault and battery.  Kristen LaBrie was sentenced to 8-10 years in state prison for this incident.

I think that she was negligent because if she decided that she was not going to use conventional cancer treatments, she should have used something else.  Unfortunately, most people don’t know about alternative cancer treatments.  And if they don’t know about them, they definitely don’t know which ones are the most effective. continue reading…

The Big Pharma apparatus is at it again. The latest intrusion on people’s rights happened in Detroit.

A mother, Maryanne Godboldo, of a 13 year old girl decided to refuse Big Pharma psychotropic medication.  Child Protective Services (CPS) personnel tried to abduct the child.  They accused her of not giving her daughter psychiatric medication prescribed by her doctor.  The mother says that the medication caused adverse side effects in her child that worsened her condition, so she would not give her the medication.  The medication, Risperdal, has a long track record of causing very serious side effects like vomiting, nausea, lack of coordination, anxiety and dizziness. continue reading…

Despite the lack of coverage that mass media is giving to the Fukushima nuclear disaster, the releases of radioactive nuclides will negatively affect the world for a long time.  Experts agree that there is no safe level of radiation exposure. According to reports various sources, including the EPA, there is food with radionuclides being found in the food supply in America.  And radioactive particles that are taken internally are many times more dangerous than being exposed to external radiation. continue reading…

The topic of GM foods is a very controversial topic.  The companies that produce them claim that they are necessary to feed the world.  They also say that GMO foods are safe for human consumption, as well as for use in other products, such as vaccines, pharmaceutical drugs, animal feed, and other myriad uses.

Proponents in favor of GM products say that they are safe, and are not substantially different from food products derived from normal cultivation methods.  Those who are wary of their use say that they have unknown effects at best, and that they are extremely dangerous at worse. continue reading…
