Tylenol found to cause liver damage even in small doses !I
have been warning the readers of this web site about the dangerous and
deadly Tylenol ever since it first came out many years ago. The FDA
WAS going to recall Tylenol altogether in the mid 1990's from all the
babies it was KILLING,
but a good pay-off stopped that from happening. Many
babies died and others were brain damaged and liver damaged for
life from the use of Children's Tylenol, but instead of removing it from
the shelves, the government's FDA was paid off and the drug company
just added a new flavor to those they already had ! Money is
the bottom line in this nation, NOT YOUR health !
Not
only is Tylenol dangerous to your liver, but ALL the new drugs have proven
to be also ! But you will never be told this by the 'powers that be'
! But on all the TV drug commercials we are bombarded with today
(never thought I'd live to see drugs pushed on the public on TV and have
it "government approved" ! !) we hear a very fast list of
"adversities" that these drugs are known to cause - all deadly !-
and yet they still push these drugs on TV in our faces and make it sound
like we cannot live with out them ! - That all the dangerous things
these drugs do to us, that we are to throw caution to the wind and keep
making THEM richer and us sicker ! This has to be the boldest mind-manipulating ploy yet this so-called
'government' has put on the people

Researchers instructed 106 study participants to take 4
grams of Tylenol (eight extra-strength tablets) a day for two weeks, with some
taking only regular Tylenol, and some taking Tylenol combined with an opioid
painkiller. The rest of the participants were given a placebo.
Nearly 40 percent of the participants taking Tylenol or the Tylenol/opioid
combination displayed abnormal liver test results that
indicated liver
damage, while those taking the placebo showed no damage.
Your liver cannot be taken
lightly or for granted ! Everything you eat, drink, breathe in, or
have enter your body via the skin, must first go through the body's filtering
system - THE LIVER ! Everything that enters the body in ANY way, is
filtered through your liver - EVERYTHING ! You cannot live without your liver functioning properly ! And your
liver can take just so much !
The study's co-author, Dr. Neil Kaplowitz of the University
of Southern California said, "I would urge the public not to exceed 4 grams a
day. [Better yet - use another less damaging product.] Tylenol is a
drug that has a rather narrow safety window." Kaplowitz added that heavy
drinkers should not exceed 2 grams a day.
Tylenol maker McNeil Consumer & Specialty
Pharmaceuticals said it had conducted its own
research that tracked high-dose Tylenol users over longer
periods than the Kaplowitz study, and found that its product did not lead to
liver disease. OF COURSE THEIR OWN STUDY WOULD GIVE THESE RESULTS
! NO company will ever be negative of
their own money-making product ! And unfortunately, THESE
are the ONLY tests the FDA goes by or seeks out, in order to give their
'stamp of approval' on the product, which is why we see so many
deaths from these new drugs before they are finally recalled
! And if you knew the real
numbers of deaths they require in order to recall a product, you'd shutter
! This "fox watching the hen house" type of
"testing" is no true testing at all ! It is nothing more than a
deceptive con job given to the FDA for the FDA's benefit !
Kaplowitz and co-author Dr. Paul Watkins of the University
of North Carolina were hired by Purdue Pharma, which makes the prescription
painkiller OxyContin, to see why people testing a drug containing acetaminophen and the
opiate hydrocodone were having abnormal liver tests. Contrary
to the researchers' theories, they found that acetaminophen was the culprit.
Acetaminophen is Americans' over-the-counter painkiller of
choice. Acetaminophen overdose is also the leading cause of acute liver failure.
You cannot live without your liver and we only have
one of those per person ! Adverse drug reactions in the liver are the most common
reason for drugs to be taken off the market, and the Federal Food and Drug
Administration (FDA) NOW FINALLY wants better ways to
detect these problem drugs before they reach the market and
injure users ( This only AFTER tens of thousands of people have died from
these "FDA approved" drugs !). The FDA has gotten a
terrible reputation for all the drugs they have been 'approving' for "safe use"
! I have stated many times that I
would not go near ANYTHING that is "FDA Approved" ! ...CT In an article published this week in the influential New
England Journal of Medicine, lead author Victor J. Navarro, M.D., clinical
associate professor of medicine at Jefferson Medical College of Thomas Jefferson
University in Philadelphia, writes that - liver injuries continue to plague the
nation's drug development system, proving very costly to pharmaceutical
companies that spend millions of dollars on development, only to find
later that a new medicine is potentially toxic to the liver. And this is so with
just about EVERY SINGLE DRUG PLACED ON THE MARKET !
The human body was never
designed for this man-made CHEMICAL assault like we force on our bodies today
! While NATURAL REMEDIES have PROVEN to be both safe and the best
treatments yet, since you cannot improve on God's nature, the Government's FDA
still refuses to allow those Natural treatments to be exposed as beneficial
replacements for ANY chemical drug man has made ! Natural remedies cannot
be patented and big money made off them, so they are basically "outlawed" by
being degraded in the minds of the public via the controlled media. BIG
MONEY IS THE ONLY GOAL OF THE DRUG COMPANIES , AND THE SO-CALLED 'GOVERNMENT' -
- NOT YOUR HEALTH ! They cannot make their big bucks on HEALTHY people
! They will do ANYTHING to keep you on their drugs ! And they now
have been beginning children in elementary school on their drugs, who are
already very damaged by their deadly chemical vaccinations, which is why we are
seeing all the violence, sickly kids, and learning problems we are today,
and then the government doctors put these kids on more drugs, when drugs is what
caused their problems in the first place ! It's like trying to put out a
fire by adding gasoline ! And the people are falling for all these
chemical "being beneficial" lies and hand over their babies and themselves
to the government agenda for their experiments without ever questioning it
! The people have been very well PROGRAMMED !
"Any drug can cause liver problems," says Dr. Navarro,
who is also medical director for hepatology and liver transplantation in the
Department of Medicine at Thomas Jefferson University Hospital. "Recognizing
liver injury depends on vigilance," he says. "We propose in the paper that
probably the best way to detect liver injury early is for patients to simply
speak with their physicians about the drugs they are taking."
Because of their genetic makeup, certain
people are more likely than others to develop liver-related problems, Dr.
Navarro notes. He believes that in the coming decade, researchers will find new
ways to develop safer drugs with fewer side effects by better understanding the
potential genetic impact a new medication may have and by
identifying those individuals who might be more likely to be harmed by the
drug. In the chemical drug industry - it's one size fits
all ! The only thing they go by is a person's weight. Now with
Natural homeopathy treatments, everything in a person's individual body is taken
into consideration for giving a treatment !
Dr. Navarro points out that some
well-publicized instances of drug poisoning and liver injury from acetaminophen overdose have
garnered widespread media attention. But acetaminophen is safe when taken
properly. Some abuse it and others suffer accidental injury because they don't
realize how much they are taking from other medications as well. Taking
acetaminophen for headache along with decongestants--which also could contain
the drug--for flu, for example, could lead to overdoses. Such accidental
overdoses with acetaminophen have only relatively recently been recognized,
within the last decade.
Another concern involves complementary
medicines that people take because they are told they will "cleanse the liver
and the blood." In fact, cautions Dr. Navarro, "such non-prescribed substances
are not regulated by the FDA, and individuals can develop liver injuries from
taking these. What's worse is that some people will continue to take these
because they fail to recognize signs of liver injury, which can be very
subtle."
A drug's dangerous effects on the liver don't always
show up in clinical trials testing the effectiveness of a drug because they are
such rare events and are often underreported. In drug trials, usually only a few
thousand people are tested. There might be some early signs, but they do not
become severe disease. Often, it is not until many thousands of patients
are exposed that these factors become evident. It's like
mass experimentation instead of INDIVIDUAL recognition, since
this drug industry produces thier "one size fits all" methods.
Take Ketek, for example, an antibiotic
used to treat respiratory infections. In January, a report on the web site of
the journal Annals of Internal Medicine described three cases of drug-induced
liver disease in patients at one
hospital who took the medication,
prompting the Food and Drug Administration to
issue a public health advisory warning doctors to monitor patients on
Ketek.
Dr. Navarro explains that an individual will develop
a reaction to a medication, never tell his or her doctor, and continue to take
the drug. The reaction might never develop into something more serious and will
simply go away, a process called "adaptation." The person's body actually
"adapts" to being chemical. This still shortens the life and injures the
body, even if gone undetected at first. By the time chemical damage is
noticed, the damage is already at the deadly stage.
The authors suggest that "only large
prospective trials" will provide the missing information on the causes behind
drug-related liver toxicity.
"Patients who have had drug reactions
are prospectively enrolled, histories are accrued, and samples are being
collected," he explains, "to better understand what makes these individuals
susceptible to the chemical drugs and their damage." Instead of
seeking out Natural treatments that cause NO damage and actually work better,
and that the body does NOT get a resistance to, like it is with
chemical man-made drugs, this 'government' still insists on their money-making
damaging chemical drugs ! MONEY is the bottom line, as usual. And
the drug companies run the nation !
Studies need to be done to uncover
specific metabolic pathways involved in drug-caused liver injuries, Dr. Navarro
adds. "Why do certain people develop injuries while others don't? Some may be
susceptible because of a genetic constitution that makes them react to a drug.
The pharmaceutical industry wants to identify these pathways to try to avoid
them. [This could lead to other experiments
that actually seek to change our DNA or genes ! Messing with God's Nature
seems to be the ultimate goal, when God has already given us all the medicines
we need in His nature ! People survived well for thousands of years
before MAN came along about 60 years ago and wanted to "improve" on God, and
make big money in the process !]
"The issue of acetaminophen and
other drugs causing liver problems has been around for a while," he says. "The
fact that it keeps happening is a sign that WE have much to
learn." New
research shows that long-term use of acetaminophen -- sold under the brand name
Tylenol -- harms kidneys as well. This
research was conducted on 1,700 women, and spanned 11 years. Overall, it showed
that 10% of the women experienced a decline in their kidney function, indicating
that their kidneys were being harmed by this over-the-counter painkiller. Women
who took between 1,500 and 9,000 tablets over their lifetimes raised their risk
of kidney impairment by 64%, and women who took more than 9,000 tablets
increased their risk even further. This is yet more evidence of the dangers of
consuming over-the-counter painkillers on a frequent basis. As
a whole, over-the-counter painkillers are responsible for killing over 40,000
Americans each year -- acetaminophen, and other
painkillers. If it
weren't for the extreme profitability of these pharmaceutical
products, and the fact that
their manufacturers hold such strong influence over the
FDA, they would have been
banned and pulled from the marketplace long ago
!
Consider this:
Tylenol is being shown to damage 10% of the people who use
it on a regualr basis, and yet the FDA remains silent on the
issue of public safety. Had this been an herb or vitamin, such as
ephedra, the FDA would have held a press conference and
shouted headlines about how dangerous this herb is to consumers
! They do
all they can to try and make natural things appear bad
! Odd,
since the FDA was ORIGINALLY CREATED TO PROTECT THE NATURAL
TREATMENTS FROM THE DRUG COMPANIES AND THE GOVERNMENT ! TALK ABOUT
A SELL OUT FOR THE ALMIGHTY DOLLAR
!! In fact, ephedra (later cleared to
show it had nothing to do with any
deaths) was banned after being "associated" with the deaths of only a
few dozen people, representing a tiny fraction of the
total users who were taking the herb on a regular basis, yet
over-the-counter painkillers such as acetaminophen and
aspirin
are killing 60,000 people each year, and according to
this study, seriously damaging the kidney function of an
astounding 10%+ of its users. That's a figure that makes these over-the-counter
pain killers far more dangerous than ephedra could ever dream of being,
and yet the FDA says
nothing. By the way, not one death in all of history of
using ephedra has ever shown ANY connection of ephedra to ANY death ! AND
this herb has been used for thousands of years ! Quite a
remarkable record ! One that the drug companies cannot claim in just their
short 60 years of existence with ANY drug of theirs.
This research doesn't even mention the
extreme liver damage caused by NSAIDs --
which are anti-inflammatory drugs. When consumed with alcohol, NSAIDs cause severe liver damage and may ultimately lead to liver
cancer and / or failure of the liver (which it HAS done
many times!). These risks are almost never mentioned in the popular
press, nor are they publicized by the FDA, and so most
people remain completely unaware of the significant health dangers associated
with long-term use of these painkillers or any FDA 'approved'
drug.
All this creates a
rather frustrating situation: harmful products are being marketed and sold to
consumers without adequate warnings about the serious detrimental health effects
they cause - AND the really safe and good natural products and treatments are
being lied about !!! The FDA, which is
supposed to be regulating the industry and protecting the public
health, continues to ignore these safety
concerns, and instead looks the other way for products that are
manufactured by large pharmaceutical companies. Simultaneously, the FDA exaggerates the health
risk of nutritional supplements and medicinal herbs in order to regulate or
remove those products from the market, thereby increasing the market potential
of highly profitable, but far more dangerous, painkillers and prescription
drugs.
This is the structure of a drug
racket -- extreme corruption in
action, at the highest levels of government and industry. Potentially
millions of Americans are being harmed and tens of thousands are being killed
each year by over-the-counter painkillers such as acetaminophen, and yet there
is virtually no recognition of this problem in the press,
and it receives almost no attention whatsoever by
the FDA. Let's face it: the human body is
not designed to consume over-the-counter painkillers on a regular basis. If
you find yourself needing painkillers every day, just to get from one day to the
next, it's time to take a closer look at
the source of your pain and seek
treatments that can help balance your body and return it to a
state of natural health without you needing to
ingest pharmaceuticals that mask pain symptoms on a regular
basis. Hiding the pain with drugs does not TREAT the CAUSE of the problem,
it only hides it ! ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ See
