What is Substance Abuse? Why Can't
Pharmacists Prevent Poly Pharmacy?
Rx Drugs Don't Address the Cause and as a
Chemical, they Become Toxic.
Hi, I'm Richard Ruhling, MD, a retired physician who
taught Health Science at Loma Linda University after becoming
board-certified in Internal Medicine. Loma Linda was featured in the cover
story of National Geographic (Nov, 2005) on Longevity where residents do well at old
age.
You might be skeptical, but the US News cover story, "How to Reverse Heart Disease" is illustrated in this 6-minute video that includes Cleveland Clinic's cardiologist, Dr. Esselstyn.
Did you like the video above? It was excerpted from this DVD, 88 minutes . Wouldn't you like to see the rest of it? It's the best tool that I have found to help motivate people to eat better. It could help you reverse heart disease, diabetes, high blood pressure, osteoporosis, even some cancers...
$9.99 is the best investment you can make in your health and your family's health...
PS: I have proof that it works. My star witness is Sal Frascinella who had heart disease at 65. He had three cardiologists and was taking 12 pills a day, but he couldn't walk two blocks without severe chest pain. Attending my seminar, he got off his drugs, resumed tennis and is alive approaching 95!
Richard Ruhling, MD, MPH can be contacted for speaking at Ruhling7@juno.com or call him at 928 583 7543. He's able to accomodate most requests!

60 School Shootings and 4800 Acts of Violence Linked to Psychiatrist, Drugs; Congress Reaction--Take Guns
Instead of addressing the issue with
big pharma or FDA, Congress gets $400 million a
year donated to their re-election campaign by drug
companies. One senator, confronted with medical literature showing
drugs as a leading cause of death said, "You are wasting your time,
they own
us!"Here's another insight from another
MD:
You don't think so? Watch this Big Pharma
Executive Tell the Truth:
Drugs will kill you or make you sick sooner or later,
but most people aren't able to get out of the system by cutting down on
their own. If you need help beyond your ability to taper off on your
own, please visit http://RichardRuhling.com

#1 Cause of Illness, Disability & Death: Prescription Drugs
Adverse Drug Reactions put 2.2 million people in hospitals and 106,000 died, "making these reactions between the fourth and sixth leading cause of death." Journal of American Medical Assoc, 4-15-1998
But how many died at home? 199,000 according to the Western J Med. June, 2000. Deaths in and outside hospitals from Rx totaled 305,000 then, with 8 million admissions to the hospital and 3 million for long-term care (nursing homes--these people were messed up for life!)
"From 1998 through 2005, reported serious adverse drug events increased 2.6-fold...fatal adverse drug events increased 2.7-fold..." Archives of Internal Medicine, Sep 10, 2007, p 1752.
But if deaths increased 2.7 fold from 1998 to 2005, by 2013 they are increased 5.4-fold. Multiplying 305,000 deaths/year by 5. 4, prescribed drugs killed 1.65 million people/year-- these are not old people in nursing homes--most of them weren't even in the hospital.
1,650,000 deaths/year is 4500 deaths daily--like one and a half 9-11's daily! Confronted with these figures, a U.S. Senator said told me I was wasting my time, "they own us," referring to the pharmaceutical industry that spends $400 million/year on congressional re-election campaigns, says (Marcia Angell, MD, former editor of New England Journal of Medicine (60 Minutes' interview), now teaching at Harvard. These people are false to their oath of office.
1. Drugs relieve symptoms and people think everything is okay. You don' t have to be as careful what you eat. Your blood sugar, blood pressure or cholesterol will still be "normal."
2. Drugs do not cure disease. If they did, you wouldn' t need another prescription.
3. Drugs usually
have a long list of adverse effects that people would not imagine. A
purple pill (the ad said,
"heal the damage") has 120 adverse effects in the
Physician's Desk Reference.
4. Our bodies don' t have a chemical deficiency supplied by the drug, and they become toxic to it sooner or later. Then they go to their doctor for the 'headache, diarrhea, or abdominal pain' for an additional prescription instead of quitting the one that caused it. They are now at risk for the leading cause of death, prescription drugs.
Congress is "dancing with the devil," says Marcia Angell, MD, in The Truth About the Drug Companies: How They Deceive Us, 2004, published by Random House. Angell says, "Drug companies promote diseases to match their drugs. Millions of normal Americans have come to believe that they have dubious or exaggerated ailments like 'generalized anxiety disorder,' 'erectile dysfunction,' 'PMDD,' and 'GERD." Government should get the drug ads off TV, but congress likes the $400 million that drug companies spend on their re-election campaign.
- General Accounting Office reported that for a decade, half of hundreds of drugs that were approved by the FDA had "serious post-approval risks, including heart failure, myocardial infarction, respiratory failure, seizures and kidney failure."
- Pharmaceutical companies do not do long-term studies. They don't want to know the results because they would be liable as tobacco companies were. But why do our tax dollars fund their research through NIH? And why do they get to push their drugs with TV ads?
- Pfizer's torcetrapib fulfilled its promise, increasing good cholesterol by 72% and reducing bad cholesterol by 24% in patients who were also taking a potent cholesterol-lowering drug. Despite the increase, the rate of potentially deadly heart problems rose by 25%, deaths rose by 40%. USA Today, 11-6, 2007.
- Meanwhile, scientists are discovering plant chemicals like lutein, lycopene and sulforaphane that protect against blindness, cancer, heart problems. What's the difference? Drug companies cannot patent natural products, so they focus on chemicals that relieve symptoms but do not cure. They are greedy and deserve to be taxed like tobacco companies to pay for the ever-increasing cost of medical care that their products cause.
Famous Quotes
The Father of Modern Medicine, Sir William Osler:
""Far too large a section of the treatment of disease is today
controlled by the big manufacturing pharmacists, who have enslaved us in
a plausible pseudo-science...We take into our bodies which we
know little about, drugs that we know less about, to treat diseases that
we know nothing about."
"Nature cures, not the physician...let your food be your medicine." Hippocrates
"The doctor of the future will dispense no drugs, but will interest his patients in prevention." Thomas Edison
Every nation practicing western medicine is on the brink of bankruptcy becuae drugs don't cure the problem and will soon cause a need for more medical care.
The Bible foretold what's happening: "Babylon is fallen...for by her sorceries [pharmakeia is the Greek word] were all nations deceived" Revelation 18:2,23.
Practical Help
Most medicine can be tapered by taking
three pills a day instead of four if you eat like the DVD and book on this
page suggest--a low fat, low cholesterol diet and get some exercise. Ask
your doctor's help as you eat better and your need for medication should be less as you get your cholesterol,
blood sugar or blood pressure check. As how the blood test turned out and
if it's okay, continue to taper slowly.
If your doctor thinks you will die, get a
another opinion--you may need to try several
MDs.
Regardless of whether your doctor is working with you or not, the DVD and books to the left offer valuable information and motivation for better nutrition.

Vaccinations and the Flu Shot?
Dr Gary Null addresses NY State Assembly Oct 13, 2009Dr Gary Null addresses NY State Assembly Oct 13, 2009
Dr Gary Null addresses NY State Assembly Oct 13, 2009
Every year when flu season rolls around the public is barraged with news stories about the reasons to get a flu shot. This year is no different. From coast to coast the headlines are blaring, Get Your Shot! Within the past few months the CDC even lowered the recommended age for the flu shot to children as young as six months old. Basically, that means they think that just about everyone in the country should get the shot except for newborns in order to stay well.
I have been trying to counter the propaganda regarding the flu shot for a number of years and for a number of reasons. Here are a few of them.
2. The flu shot does not guarantee immunity. There is no evidence that the flu shot actually works. Pharmaceutical companies play a guessing game each year to try and determine which viral strain or strains will be circulating during flu season and that's what they'll put in the shot. The problem is viruses can mutate and change forms very easily so trying to guess which virus to protect against is analogous to a Vegas Craps shoot. Every year in recent memory, including the 2007-08 flu season, they have vaccinated against strains that have been proven to not be the culprit. According to a story written by Sheryl Walters for www.naturalnews.com, In 2004, The National Vaccine Information Center reported that the vaccine given that year did not contain the flu strain that caused the majority of flu outbreaks that year. A study published in the Lancet in August revealed that there was no correlation between the flu shot and reduced risk of pneumonia. Further, a large study of 260,000 children between 23 month and 6 discovered that the flu vaccine is no more effective than a placebo. This was reported in the Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews.
3. The flu shot helps spread the flu. The shot contains something called attenuated virus. Attenuated basically means half-killed. The shot has to evoke an immune response and therefore has to have some form of viral activity to it to stimulate that immune response. The theory is to give you a tiny dose of the flu so your body will build immunity to it. Anyone who thinks that they are not contagious after getting a flu shot is woefully mistaken. Most of the package inserts will even tell you that you may exhibit mild flu symptoms for a few days after getting a shot. There are also a percentage of people who receive the shot and get very sick.
SHOULD WE VACCINATE OUR CHILDREN?
If children receive flu vaccine, it can be even more deadly because children are more sensitive to mercury and to the effects of depressed immunity. Flu vaccine in children causes an increased incidence in asthma by 200%. There has caused sudden memory loss in children and adults immediately after receiving flu vaccine. . .
Very young babies are at extremely high risk because their brains are immature; blood brain barriers are 'leaky' and more sensitive to toxins. In the first two years of life, infants may receive 22 vaccines with as many as nine shots in one office visit. Many doctors feel this is criminal. . .
Nasal flu vaccines are even worse because they introduce a live virus into the nasal mucous membranes only a few inches from the brain where viruses can potentially travel upward via the olfactory (smell) nerves.
VACCINES AND AUTISM
The evidence is overwhelming: Thimerosal and possibly other ingredients can cause autism. On February 25, 2008 an announcement came that even the Court of Federal Claims (the Vaccine court) agrees, as a family was awarded compensation from government (Dept. of Health & Human Services via US Assistant Attorney General Peter Keisler), in the case of a little 18 month old girl who immediately began a downhill neurologic horror shortly after receiving vaccines for 9 diseases in one visit to the doctor's office. Two of the vaccines contained thimerosal.
It was autism and much more, labeled by experts as regressive encephalopathy triggered by thimerosal in the vaccines. The child is permanently brain damaged. I saw nothing in the major media about this case. Rather strange isn't it? The evidence has been there for decades. Thus far, 2000 people have received over 2 billion in compensation (our tax money) for thimerosal vaccine injuries.
Their little girl's case was profound and obvious. The more common scenario is the thousands who may have various types of brain damage which are not so severe and not so obvious: the ones which come on more slowly, several months or years later like 'mild autism or mild ADHD' or some mixture of mental or behavioral abnormalities.
What a lot of people don't understand . . . is that there can be several factors at work, not just mercury. Mercury is a deadly toxin but other factors can render it even more deadly. . . We never know which wicked mixtures [of toxic substances in vaccines] in combination may be producing neurologic disease. . . Medical authorities would have you believe that certain diseases are clear-cut single events, black and white. The truth is that there are grey zones of disease which are hard to categorize.
Vaccines aren't just prone to produce autism; they have the potential to produce a variety of brain damage syndromes, mild to severe, depending on several factors embodied within the genetic + nutritional + environmental variables. Cleverly worded distortions in official press releases illustrate simply more ways that 'lying with authority' can fool you.
SHOULD ADULTS RECEIVE ANNUAL FLU SHOTS?
It is estimated that a flu vaccine injection yearly for five years running increases the chance for Alzheimer's by at least 1000%. Flu vaccine can also cause anxiety and depression preceded by brain inflammation especially in the elderly who have high suicide rates.
In spite of these known risks with vaccines, there is an all out campaign by public health officials and doctors to vaccinate elderly people, not only with the flu vaccine, but with a growing number of new vaccines. Many people report that flu shots give them the flu. In fact, people die from flu vaccine. When the elderly die after getting a flu shot, especially if months later, it is rarely blamed on the flu vaccine. Deaths and disability from flu vaccine far exceed deaths from the flu. . .
Flu vaccines are only effective in 30% to 40% of people who take them and even that is questionable. There has never been strong evidence of fewer hospitalizations or decreased death rate from taking flu vaccines. This is another example of fact distortion by authority in the effort to sell more flu vaccine.
Flu vaccine during pregnancy can dramatically increase the risk for autism and schizophrenia. Most flu vaccines contain mercury (thimerosal) and aluminum and could contain viral fragments. It could cause multiple side effects in the brain including paralysis, hearing loss, vertigo and brain irritability.
Flu vaccine over-stimulates the immune system, especially the brain. In fact, it can suppress immunity for weeks after receiving the vaccine. . . In people who die from flu vaccine, and there certainly are a number every year, the actual cause of death has often been reported as due to some other type of disease, but in reality, their immune systems have been depressed, allowing other diseases to become more deadly.

A Judeo-Christian Perspective:
When Christ was asked about the end of the world, He said to understand the book of Daniel. It begins with Daniel in captivity (military force or martial law that Christ implied was the sign in Matt 24:15). And in that setting, Daniel faced "Obamacare"--it was the king's "healthcare" with his meat and wine.
Daniel purposed not to defile himself. Similarly, Jewish Senator Joe Lieberman showed concern that "the narrowness of the existing exemption infringes on the rights of individuals whose sincerely held religious beliefs would cause them to object to medical health care that would be required under the law." This is a time for Jews and Christians everywhere to stand up and be counted for an exemption.
Three Reasons Why We Should Seek Exemption from Obamacare (as Daniel did.)
1. Obamacare is medical care that has high risk of illness, disability and death from drugs as seen at http://LeadingCauseOfDeathPrescriptionDrugs.com (medical references and videos by experts)
2. Obamacare comes with a National ID Card. This infringes on our privacy. They will know who we are, where we are, how much money we have in the bank and how to take it--page 58 of the plan.
3. Destiny. Of 4600 captives taken to Babylon (Jer 52:30), they all became nobody's and lost their identity while Daniel and his three friends who protested, became great glody men. .
