Here is an interesting video by Dr. Mercola, a controversial doctor because he promotes alternative methods to try to treat the root(s) of health conditions, rather than mask them with drugs like traditional allopathic doctors would do.
Big Medicine has a tremendous amount of power in people's lives, so we ought to be aware of its limitations and the full impact of this self-perpetuating industry. We put so much trust in this profession, but it might be a good idea to open our eyes and logical thinking to the way it works.
Of course, natural, alternative medicine can be harmful, too. For example, there were a number of reports on chelation backfiring, and people getting really sick from mobilizing the metals in a natural treatment. Some supplements can also end up being harmful, so in the case of one's health, it is good for the buyer to beware.
The age-old adage First Do No Harm should be the tempering goal of not only medicine, but government and industry, especially when they team up to deploy new technologies, set policies and serve the people.
This blog exists to reveal and analyze areas in which these powerful groups are failing to "first do no harm."

EMR Policy Institute Letter to Obama: Halt wireless broadband plan and smart meters deployment
Janet Newton of the EMR Policy Institute wrote an excellent June 5 letter to the current president calling for a halt to his national broadband initiative, which would waste taxpayer money on deploying wireless signals through 98% of the U.S. The initiative would spend over $25 billion dollars of taxpayer money on the risky, inefficient radiation-producing technology that also poses privacy and cybersecurity risks. Newton also discloses the wireless system would pose no energy savings and result in increased costs for consumers.
Anyone concerned about this great experiment with our nation's health and well-being may want to also write the president. Anyone who has not noticed any health effects from their current microwave and radio-frequency radiation exposure, better speak up now as a preventive measure for their family's future!
