False Claims and Fraud flourish even more near "proven" therapies

(I think it is safe to assume that proven means mainstream and unproven means alternative.)

"Proven" versus "Unproven" Therapies

Isn' t it funny how mainstream medicine and their many mouthpieces predicted doom, gloom and multiple deaths from unsafe and unproven supplements when DSHEA was approved?  And what has transpired since then?  Almost half of us take some form vitamins, minerals and supplements and yet the annual total deaths attributed to natural supplements is only a handful - even including misuse and deliberate abuse.  Mainstream medicine on the other hand has over 100,000 deaths from drug properly used and prescribed medications every year by their own admission.  There's your proven therapies for you!

• More than one of three physicians says patients have asked physicians to deceive third-party payers to help the patients obtain coverage for medical services in the last year. Journal of the American Medical Association (2000)

"We have no real proof of the boasted effectiveness of any form of anti-toxin or vaccine or serum... If such a vaccinated or immunised person contracts the disease which he is supposed to be protected, it is pretty good evidence that such "protection" is valueless, isn't it? Surely people do contract disease against which they are supposed to be immunised, as we all know.... Well, are you satisfied that WE ARE QUACKS? In the eyes of those who are willing to forgot the present prestige of medicine, such as it is, with all its dignity, its scientific jargon, its pratings of altruism, its great endowment, its well heralded "achievements," we are most assuredly quacks, professing to do things we cannot do, and yes, taking money under this pretence." Dr. Paul M. Koonin, D.D.Sc.
