What’s Killing You?

B’Man’s Revolt

There are a number of studies that show what is killing Americans. The CDC publishes a list every year, but it is a bit misleading. It lists maladies that effect people, but doesn’t get into what actually causes these deaths. Number One and Number Two are heart disease and cancer (both are likely do to lifestyle and contamination we see in this nasty environment). As a matter of fact, most of the top on the list may be largely affected by lifestyle, tainted foods, and lack of exercise).  

• Heart disease: 597,689

• Cancer: 574,743

• Chronic lower respiratory diseases: 138,080

• Stroke (cerebrovascular diseases): 129,476

• Accidents (unintentional injuries): 120,859

• Alzheimer’s disease: 83,494

• Diabetes: 69,071

• Nephritis, nephrotic syndrome, and nephrosis: 50,476

• Influenza and Pneumonia: 50,097

• Intentional self-harm (suicide): 38,364

What the CDC doesn’t show is the other side of the coin: that the medical industry is a major contributor to the deaths of Americans.  For example, the 3rd leading cause of death in America is “Medical Doctor Directed Treatment”. In other words, you go to the doctor, he treats you and then you die because of that treatment.

Just looking at Medicare patients, the Department of Health and Human Services notes that 15,000 patients per MONTH are killed by MD treatment. (This video is from the summer of 2011 and I would venture to guess that the numbers are even larger now.)

I also want to note that the Dr interviewed compared 3,500 people dying in the 911 “terrorist” attacks (even though it was not hijackers who killed anyone, but the Israeli/American cabal of murderous thugs). His point, though, is spot on. We go to war over 3,500 people dying, but when it comes to 15,000/month, no one says a word. No one is water boarding these doctors or putting them in Gitmo. No one is drone-bombing the hospitals and clinics where they work.

But really, its worse than what I’ve shared already. Even as far back as the year 2000, JAMA (The Journal of the American Medical Association) published a report finding that the fourth leading cause of death to Americans is prescription drug interactions, killing over 100,000 people each year.

This hits home because as you will see in the next video, people over 55 (of which I am getting close) are on 8 or more drugs at any single point in time (I am on one blood pressure medicine). The average person over 55 receives 35 prescriptions each year. Why is this important, because most of this could be avoided by lifestyle, exercise and diet changes.

Dr Mercola breaks down the numbers as such:

• 12,000 — unnecessary surgery

• 7,000 — medication errors in hospitals

• 20,000 — other errors in hospitals

• 80,000 — infections in hospitals

• 106,000 — non-error, negative effects of drugs
