50 percent of us at risk of brain damage from mercury fillings January 12, 2016
It’s a kick in the teeth that could be leaving millions of us with brain damage.

The list of known side effects gets longer all the time: hypothyroidism, reduced IQ in kids, hip fractures, and even cancer.

Daily aspirin to prevent Alzheimer's? Not so fast! December 3, 2015
Aspirin is a “wonder drug,” all right. I keep wondering what they’ll claim it cures next!

Seniors targeted with vaccine ingredient linked to Gulf War Syndrome December 2, 2015
It’s one of the most dangerous vaccines to ever hit your doctor’s office. And every American over 65 is in the crosshairs.

'Alzheimer's breakthrough' is really just a Big Pharma illusion October 20, 2015
Not a snowball’s chance in, well… you know.

There’s no doubt that diabetic nerve pain is agonizing.
