A 1996 study published in The journal of the american medical association found that women using bio-identical progesterone cream experienced an average of 7 to 8 percent bone mineral density increase in the first year, 4 to 5 percent in the second year, and 3 to 4 percent in the third year. Untreated women in this category typically lose 1.5 percent bone mineral density per year. For the treatment and prevention of bone density loss, no other form of hormone replacement or dietary supplementation has had as high a level of positive response as bio-identical progesterone. |

After examining 79 different studies, a report published in the journal of the american medical association says "We did not find strong evidence of a marked increase in the risk of cancer among personal hair dye users." [Journal American Medical Assn 293:2516-25,2005]
However, a study conducted by the University of North Carolina School of Public Health found that the use of any hair dye in the month before and/or during pregnancy is associated with a modest increased risk of neuroblastoma in offspring. |
| In an overlooked report published in the journal of the american medical association, researchers at the Norwegian Institute of Public Health, Oslo, Norway, find that three times more breast cancers are detected on the first mammogram than in subsequent screenings. If none of the miniscule tumors that cannot be detected by mammography undergo remission, but rather accumulate over time, then one would expect the incidence of breast cancer to increase and be about three times what is observed. |
| Friedrich addressed questions about vitamin E and cancer in his article " To 'E' or Not to 'E,' Vitamin E's Role in Health and Disease Is the Question," published in the journal of the american medical association. [Journal American Medical Assn 292: 671-673, 2004]
Friedrich writes that most clinical trials designed to examine the ability of vitamin E to prevent disease have included the form of vitamin E called alpha-tocopherol, the most abundant form of the vitamin and the primary compound used in dietary supplements. |
| According to a report in the journal of the american medical association, 74% believe that early cancer detection saves lives and many believe that an older adult who refuses to undergo screening tests is irresponsible. Nearly 4 in 10 adults who were surveyed had undergone at least one false positive screening test. Two-thirds said they would want to be tested for cancer even if nothing could be done. This survey reflects public enthusiasm for cancer screening which is not dampened by the lack of effective treatments or false-positive tests. |
| A report in the journal of the american medical association even attests to the lack of toxicity when intravenous laetrile B17 is employed. [Journal American Medical Assn 245: 591-94, 1981]
What modern medicine did to discredit laetrile Bl 7 was to conduct a study using dogs in which the unzipping enzyme (glucuronidase) was prematurely produced by combining B17 with almond paste. |
| A report in the journal of the american medical association asks: "Why do physicians provide treatment that does not improve survival and has unfortunate consequences?" [Journal American Medical Assn 279: 1746-1748, 1998]
The answer to this question is that "physicians find it too uncomfortable to tell patients that they cannot effectively fight their patients' cancer because it means that clinicians have failed. It is much simpler to give another round of chemotherapy. |

A remarkable article that was published in the journal of the american medical association (JAMA) in 2004. The authors were from the Center for Disease Control and Prevention in Atlanta, a division of the National Institutes of Health (NIH); they were held in the highest regard by the biomedical community. They asked a crucial and generally ignored question: What "actually" causes one to die of heart disease or cancer, or any of the other leading causes of death?12
Their answer? The leading "actual cause of death" is tobacco (18%)! |

According to the report, which was published in the journal of the american medical association (JAMA), 20 percent of the 3,000 researchers actually admitted that they had delayed publication of research results for more than 6 months, to obtain patents and to "slow the dissemination of undesired results." "Sometimes if you accept a grant from a company, you have to include a proviso that you won't distribute anything except with its OK. It has a negative impact on science," says Nobel Prize-winning biochemist Paul Berg. |
| Although the journal of the american medical association argues that because of its severe side effects, the drug should be abandoned, it is still prescribed world-wide in certain hypertensive emergencies. The U.S. National Heart, Lung and Blood Institute has warned doctors to use nifedipine only with great caution, if at all. One study published in 1995 in the Lancet found that patients who received calcium-channel blockers were 60 percent more likely to suffer a heart attack than those put on either diuretics or beta-blockers. |
| Research published in 1997 by the journal of the american medical association found that drugs for high blood pressure may be overprescribed, especially if blood pressure measurements are taken by the doctor instead of by the portable device used for ambulatory monitoring.

What is more disturbing is that the medical system is trying to create a problem where none actually exists. What is considered "normal" blood pressure has been modified nearly a dozen times in the past 35 years. |

The results, published in the journal of the american medical association, powerfully underscored her hunch: women with the highest levels of energy expenditure had a 20 percent lower chance of being cognitively impaired on tests of memory and general intelligence. The median level of activity for this group translated to walking twelve hours a week, or running just under four hours total, compared with less than one hour of walking for the least active group (of five). But Weuve says you don't have to be a "super athlete" to get a benefit. |

On different note, a Canadian study reported in the journal of the american medical association (Volume 295, page 2366) confirms that a 10-year interval between colonoscopy screenings may be appropriate for those who have had one negative procedure, meaning no cancer was found. Ten-year screenings have long been recommended for detecting possible colon cancer, but the new research shows that repeat screenings even after the ten years bear few or no benefits. |
| In one-third of the examined "clinical tests," there were no tests done at all, and another third did not comply with the standard requirements for conducting such tests. The journal of the american medical association reported on November 3, 1975, that the results of only one-third of all clinical tests could be considered reliable.
Therefore, at a time when most drugs are entering the market without scientific backing and justification, both physicians and patients ought to be vigilant and cautious about their use of drugs. |

This might be hard for you to believe, but it wasn't too long ago that doctors routinely recommended smoking cigarettes, too. The journal of the american medical association, in fact, ran numerous ads promoting Camels as "recommended by more doctors than any other cigarette!" Doctors talked up the "benefits" of smoking cigarettes, urging people to start smoking in order to improve brain function or even -- get this -- make their teeth stronger! |

A July 2000 article in the journal of the american medical association (jama) presented statistics to show that doctors are the third leading cause of death, after heart disease and cancer, in the United States.7 From a separate study commissioned by the Nutrition Institute of America, a more recent article entitled "Death by Medicine" by Drs. Null, Dean, Feldman, and Rasio concludes that the American medical system is the "leading cause of death and injury in the United States. |

According to the journal of the american medical association, prescription drugs currently kill approximately 100,000 Americans each year. None of those deaths are accurately recorded as "death by pharmaceuticals."
As mentioned earlier, 84 percent agree that advertisements should be outlawed for drugs with safety concerns. The United States is the only advanced nation in the world that allows drug companies to advertise directly to consumers. |

And that statistic, by the way, comes straight from the journal of the american medical association, which studied deaths caused by prescription drug side effects.
Conventional medicine is dangerous to public health
Today, the sick care industry is a deadly industry mired in dishonest advertising, corrupt regulators, brainwashed doctors, suppression of alternative medicine and always power, money and greed. It has become such a complete joke that modern medicine is actually harmful to the public. In other words, Americans would actually be far healthier if all the M.D. |

REPPED: The latest round in conventional medicine's ongoing attempts to discredit (and ultimately outlaw) nutritional supplements is found in a highly questionable study published this week in the journal of the american medical association, which claims that vitamins actually increase the risk of death.
The study claims to have analyzed a collection of previous studies on Vitamin A, beta carotene, Vitamin C, Vitamin E and selenium, concluding that most of the nutrients are actually dangerous to human health. |

Let's focus on one recent study, written about in the prestigious journal of the american medical association. For the Nurses' Health Study II, researchers from the Harvard School of Public Health, Brigham and Women's Hospital, and Children's Hospital Boston analyzed data on more than 91,000 female nurses between 1991 and 1999 and found that those women who reported having more than one soft drink per day showed an SO percent increased risk for type 2 diabetes compared to those who drank less than one soda a month. |

Similar results were reported by the journal of the american medical association in 1995. One of the first placebo-controlled trials studying the relationship between HRT and heart disease showed more cases of heart disease among those taking HRT than those given a placebo. In 2004, one of several Women's Health Initiative (WHI) studies on HRT was shut down because using these hormones endangered the lives of too many women. This eight-year study of 11,000 women was stopped in its 7th year when it was determined that estrogen therapy may increase the risk of stroke. |

Gyland blasted off a letter to the journal of the american medical association in 1953, reproaching his colleagues for overlooking Dr. Harris's pioneering discovery.
Dr. Gyland then went on to treat more than 1,000 hypoglycemic patients and compile an exhaustive study. (His oft-cited list of symptoms is included at the end of this chapter.) But his groundbreaking discoveries went unnoticed. Although he was allowed to read his study before an AMA-associated medical society, it never appeared in any AMA publication and landed instead in a Brazilian medical journal—written in Portuguese. |

The odds of having bipolar disorder at some point in your life are surprisingly high—almost 10 percent, according to an article in the journal of the american medical association.
Hypomania is a mild form of mania in which people might feel that they are functioning exceptionally well and are especially productive. Some people in the manic phase might say they are "busy with projects" and can't afford to sleep. In such cases, it is usually family members or friends who notice that the person's behavior is unusual or extreme. |

Tips on Using Coffee
SELECTION AND STORAGE:
• To select the best-tasting coffee beans, make sure they are freshly roasted and ground. The beans should be fragrant and free of any cracks.
• The darker the roast, the stronger and more bitter the flavor. |

Unfortunately, bio-identical progesterone is often confused with synthetically produced progestin. The Women's Health Initiative used progestin, not bio-identical progesterone. There is no documented evidence in the scientific literature of any cases of cancer resulting from treatment with bio-identical progesterone. |

And that's using statistics from the journal of the american medical association, by the way.) As shameless as ever, this dangerous law has been sold to consumers as a "drug safety" bill.
But prescription drugs are not safe, even if they are purchased at the highest retail prices in the world. (Paying more for a drug does not make it safer.) FDA-approved prescription drugs have killed far more Americans than all the terrorists events recorded in American history, combined! The FDA is the single greatest threat to the health and safety of the American people, and today, with the passage of S. |
