Re: hypertension: can we trust them?

It's the drug companies that are running the tests or somebody that wants big fed funding. I saw the story about the statins on TV and a professor stated 'why do't we just try eating right and excerising first'. What other 'I must use it all the time type drugs are out there' cigarette! Maybe big drug companies are back by big tabacco?

Just try putting margerine in our bodies let alone all kinds of drugs! I'll never forget when I was in an auto accident with neck soft tissue injuries and mild head swelling.......those docs put me on 5 meds immediately! One was really only needed if that. They are playing the greed game and the food companies are right in it with them from what I see. Developing sugary foods for kids breakfasts and packaged foods that are 4 generation foods!

I pray that our young mothers are on this and keep passion for feeding kids good ole foods and getting the kids out to excerise. It's OK if kids get mad at parents that they make their kids eat spinach - we're here to be parents not to their best friends!

I also have an issue with people who say "I listen to every word my doctor says and take all the crap he gives me"..like they are g-ds. Why don't they listen to their inner works!
