But Vicks is a petroleum based product as I recall as is vasoline.

I recall my mother using mustard plaster for bronchial conditions and this from a woman who thought doctors were gods.

One of the basic rules of traditional medicine is you do NOT throw out the baby with the bathwater. Yes, petroleum jelly is, obviously, a petroleum-based product; but it is also an excellent treatment for a broad range of situations, and actually does have healing properties while having a long history of product safety. I haven't used Vicks since they took the camphor out of it, that being the active ingredient. Still, it's been around long enough to be trustworthy.

Remember when Linus Pauling, a nobel prize winner in chemistry, wrote about Vit C? Suddenly he was pilloried, especially when he spoke about Vit C curing cancer. Today it is hard to find anyplace to get IV Vit C treatments even tho they are cheap and effective--not the horrors of chemo and radiation which destroy the immune system. What a sick (lol) system!

Yes, this needs to be exposed. the public doesn't know any of this and physicians certainly don't.

The current medical paradigm, the Rockefeller Medicine paradigm is about to exit stage left. What brings down the curtain? Not sure, but it is coming.

Rockefeller and the whole medical industrial complex is rooted in evil. The whole game goes beyond wresting away medical treatments and ventures into malevolence. The business model

Gary Suess's avatar

entails creating customers for life with toxic jabs, treating symptoms rather than curing the root cause, and cross-selling other drugs through side effects.

There is a growing sentiment to avoid allopathic medicine, reject medications in favor of natural remedies or health inducing supplements, and steer clear of the most dangerous place—hospitals. That said, the public is brainwashed and the media is controlled by the massive advertising spending of big Pharma. And, our “representatives” in government are bought-and-paid-for.

We need bold moves and massive pressure from we the people to bring down the insidiously evil industrial medical complex.

Doctors seem to be trained in how to 'manage' patients. And they do this with intimidation and outright threats and insults. That goal is to destroy any sense of confidence a patient has in their own sense of their own body. When sick a person's anxiety level is up and their resistance to such assaults is lowered. I hear so many stories of people who should know better succumbing to drugs and surgery due to the combo of intimidation and fear. The cancer industry is a major example of this.

As someone highly compromised by my one and only Moderna jab, given in 1/2021 (and eventually successfully treated by the FLCCC after my team of local doctors struggled for 6 months) I am grateful to have had my eyes opened. This learning journey has been remarkable and empowering. I have some damage that will be with me for life, as a reminder of that horrible experience, but I also embrace the opportunities for health that I have been introduced to.

Great article!!

In addition to all the vitamins & supplements that everyone's talking about (not a single sniffle since before the "pandemic"), I take drops of 2% Lugol's Iodine for my thyroid and I no longer need to take thyroid hormone replacement meds.

If anyone wants more info, I recommend starting with "Iodine: Why You Need It, Why You Can't Live Without It" by Dr. David Brownstein and "The Iodine Crisis: What You Don't Know About Iodine Can Wreck Your Life" by Lynne Farrow

This is AMAZING! Both my daughter and I have mild thyroid dysregulation… (we manage it with Brazil nuts lol!) I will check out the book! Do you mix it with distilled water or anything specifically? Thank you for sharing!

Kelly Reardon's avatar

I take 15 drops in about 3-4 ounces of water in the AM (distilled water works)...it tastes very medicinal but I put it in water in the AM so I don't break my fast (18/6 most days).

Then I take another 45 drops in about 3/4 cup of milk in the PM...tastes like milk (pick your preferred milk or even mix into plain yogurt).

This is considered a high dose (approx. 150 mg total of iodine/iodide per day), but it has worked for me for almost 4 years now. I gradually worked up to this dose as I backed off my T4 & T3 hormone replacement meds. But of course everyone is different & not everyone who takes iodine is able to completely stop taking their hormone replacement meds...

I had a partial thyroidectomy 23 years ago and hypothyroidism reared its ugly and exhausted head about 8 years ago and the T4 & T3 replacement meds helped, but I was still having issues...Then the "pandemic" hit and my research led me in many directions, including looking into iodine (silver lining!?!).

I had to up my magnesium, Vit C, B2, & B3 and selenium as well (or just eat the Brazil nuts!)...and you need to do a "salt loading protocol" to clear bromide and many other detox symptoms (explained in the books).

You can also try Iodoral pills...but for the dose that I take, the drops are better for my budget, especially when buying the big bottle. Here's what I get:

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08H1B6WX6

If you do decide to get the 2 books I recommended, you'll probably end up writing some more articles on medical malfeasance & corruption, with everything that happened to hide iodine's proven benefits for so many diseases!!

I was (actually still am) doing the same fast daily for years (since 2018) and only found out a couple of years ago about the cyclic fasting, at the time I was having all the side effects of the incorrect daily fasting, since then much better although, admittedly, I wasn't able to establish the cycling (past my cycle and I get an upset stomach if I try to have a breakfast) but it helped me to relax about having certain needs or cravings, which I would ignore or suppressed otherwise. Hope it helps you!

Last December my husband had a heart attack, most likely caused by his having type 2 diabetes (which we didn’t know he had). He ended up having two bypasses. They sent him home from the hospital with 24 prescriptions. But because I learned a hard lesson during covid (government and pharma and doctors lie), we decided to toss all the prescriptions and use vitamins, supplements, a ketogenic diet (which one nurse told me would kill my husband), and exercise to heal him. I even found an enzyme that stopped his A-fib!

Long story short: his recent echocardiogram showed his heart is just fine. He lost 50 pounds and his diabetes is reversed. His doctors are flummoxed, if not just downright annoyed (😁). I have followed Dr. Kory, Dr. Marek (especially his diabetes reversal), and all the other dissident docs who know what they’re talking about and aren’t afraid of Gramma’s remedies.

*This is the way!* My normie friends/HCPs would be mortified.

Take multi-vit, NAD, extra D, Zinc, C, (esp feeling somthing coming on), alternate between two probiotics, Omega-3s every few days, and some peformance boosters (legal!) for cycling. Get outside and enjoy the sun.

The only time I've been sick in the last five years is when I've been in contact with post-jabbed shedders. Every.Single.Time.

DMSO is a miracle worker. Mid-western doc has all the info on it.

I also learned I'm lactose-intolerant, but I've found some good/clean substitutes, which also help with blood-sugar levels which dairy is high in (sugars). Irish butter from grass-fed cows is also great on sourdough bread is great + local honey. Mmmm.

Get regular sleep, eat well, workout/exercise, and take in/share positive experiences where possible.

Funny, Jenna, I used the word 'plandemic' around a person I didn't know that spawned an hour-long discussion in the positive. You just never know.

Something additional about Rockefeller's plan: I believe he offered large donations to the various medical schools and hospitals IN EXCHANGE for them abandoning herbal remedies and all the ancient and effective forms of treatment to focus instead on pharmaceutical remedies. That's how he was able to affect this seismic shift to the profitable pills. As I have gotten older, I have come to realize the importance of John Adam's comment years ago, "Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other." It truly rings true when you consider the origins of our country. The founders believed that people were honest and true for the most part and accordingly designed the outline for its citizens. And what was their belief about people rooted in ? Faith and God's law. The sad part is that it was somewhat naive to think this because evil never sleeps and any country founded on honesty and morality will inevitably be overtaken by those who learn how to play the system and take advantage of the citizenry, like Rockefeller and his partners did and how so many do today.

Down the Rabbit Hole The Rise of Western Medicine by Tigger Montague · September 24, 2016 The underpinnings that created the AMA were based on a strategy to enhance the medical profession’s position in society. According to Richard E. Brown, author of Rockefeller Medicine Men: Medicine and Capitalism in America, “Scientific medicine gained the support of the medical profession in the late nineteenth century because it met the economic and social needs of physicians.”

The American Medical Association (AMA) began in 1847, but it was a small, weak organization until John D. Rockefeller and Andrew Carnegie took on a “philanthropic mission” to help the AMA, marking the point when allopathic (Western) medicine took a huge turn. Since there were many types of doctors and healing methods, Rockefeller wanted to eliminate these competitors, thus ensuring that drugs would be the main course of treatment. Capitalists like Rockefeller and Carnegie and others “embraced scientific medicine as an ideological weapon in their struggle to formulate a new culture appropriate to and supportive of industrial capitalism.” (Rockefeller Medicine Men; Richard E Brown, 1979).

Rockefeller and Carnegie hired Abraham Flexner, an American educator, to write a report, published and given to Congress in 1910, that concluded there were too many doctors and medical schools in the US and that all natural healing modalities which had existed for hundreds of years were unscientific quackery. Flexner’s report called for standardization of medical education, whereby only allopathic AMA medicine institutions would be granted medical school licenses. Congress acted on the conclusions and made them law.

Carnegie and Rockefeller used their tax-exempt foundations to offer huge grants to medical schools on the proviso that only an allopathic curriculum be taught. Curricula in these schools was dismantled to remove herbs and plants, and the importance of diet. On the positive side, Flexner’s influence did heighten the importance of laboratory-based research and education.

The rise of science: Allopathic medicine

From heroic medicine arose scientific medicine, so called because it replaced healing as art, and represented a method of practice “not based on dogma but on verifiable truths” (JAMA, 36 (1901), 1599-1606). Scientific medicine focused on disease as an engineering problem. “The technical expertise associated with scientific medicine helps to mystify the role and work of the physician more effectively…thereby support[ing] the claims of the profession for a monopoly of control over all healing methods.” (Rockefeller Medicine Men, Richard E Brown, 1979).

Scientific medicine made physicians more dependent on capital-intensive commodities, especially drugs, which were the essential base of their practices. Prescription drugs gave doctors new power by forcing the public to see a physician in order to obtain the benefits of medical research.

Allopathy and homeopathy

The term allopathy refers to the practice of healing through opposites. If the patient is retaining water, then a drug that promotes urination is the answer. Homeopathy is derived from the Greek homoios, which means similar and pathos, which means suffering. Homeopathatic means “like cures like.”

The Rockefellers and their pharmaceutical empire

With the AMA and allopathic medical schools firmly in place, the abolition of other medicinal therapies, and the enforcement of regulated licensing of doctors, the Rockefeller empire continued to expand. Sterling Drug Inc., the largest holding company in the Rockefeller drug empire and its 68 subsidiaries were maintained under an umbrella with the Rockefeller-owned bank Chase Manhattan (now known as JP Morgan Chase Bank) and called the Drug Trust.

We cannot forget that the pharmaceutical empire of the Rockefellers includes vaccines, sedatives, analgesics, antibiotics, heart drugs, and hypnotics.

Under the directive of the Rockefeller Foundation, funds to medical colleges in 1948 alone swelled to $32 million, which in today’s money would amount to $323 million. This ensured that the medical schools would teach and indoctrinate the names and uses of thousands of drugs.

In the 1930’s John D. Rockefeller, Jr. campaigned for the prohibition of hemp and cannabis through generous political and Baptist church donations. Hemp could produce ethanol, which competed with petroleum, and cannabis was a competitor with opium and with the Rockefeller-owned member of an opium cartel: Bayer, creators of heroin.

Rockefeller investment in chemicals and drugs

John D. Rockefeller purchased shares in what was to become a massive German chemical and pharmaceutical cartel: I.G. Farben, a conglomerate of several big chemical manufacturers including Bayer, Hoechst, and BASF. This conglomerate would invent, produce and distribute the Zyklon B used in Nazi concentration camps, producing enough of the gas to kill 200 million humans. In 1939, I.G. Farben purchased $20 million worth of high-grade aviation gasoline from…Standard Oil of New Jersey, owned by Rockefeller. That same year a new company was formed with Standard Oil taking 15% of the stock to protect Germany’s holdings in chemicals and drugs. This new company was called The American IG Farben.

Side note: Auschwitz was actually built by IG Farben. Before it became an extermination camp, it was the largest industrial complex known in Europe. Farber executives were among those found guilty of war crimes and served prison terms after the war.

Before the attack on Pearl Harbor, American IG Farben purchased an undisclosed number of shares in Schering, Monsanto Chemical, Dow Chemical, and DuPont. It also took over the privately owned Hoffman-Laroche Company (who would become one of the largest producers of coal tar vitamins in the world).

Morris A. Bealle and the Rockefeller Drug Trust

In the 1930s, Morris Bealle, a former city editor of the Washington Times and Herald started his own paper in one of the local Maryland counties. The local power company bought a large ad every week, but when Bealle wrote an editorial about the poor service the power company had given some of the paper’s readers, Bealle was hauled in front of the advertising agency and told that if he stepped out of line again, it would result in the immediate cancellation of the advertising contract as well as contracts with the gas and telephone companies.

To Bealle this was not the meaning of a free press. He closed the newspaper, and started investigating incidents of infringement of the free press, which led him to the Rockefellers. Unable to get his exposés printed, he established his own publishing company, The Columbia Publishing House, in 1949. His book, The Drug Story; A Factological History of America’s Drug Cartel published in 1949, is one of the definitive accounts of the wealth, power, and control wielded by the Rockefeller Drug Trust.

In his book, Bealle illuminates the links between Rockefeller power and government. “This Bureau—now known as the Food and Drug Administration—is used primarily for the perversion of justice by cracking down on all who endanger the profits of the Drug Trust.”

Bealle further points out that the FDA is “very assiduous in putting out of business any and all vendors of therapeutic devices which increase the health incidence of the public and thus decrease the profit incidence of the Drug Trust.” https://blog.biostarus.com/rise-western-medicine/

Yes, the Flexner Report was totally bogus pretending to 'study' the homeopathic colleges and of course concluded they were deficient. It caused funding sources to dry up and forced the closing of those colleges.

What must be noted, then as now, the holistic practitioners seem to be of an ilk that does not like to organize for protective action. They like peaceful, quiet lives that maintain a pleasant veneer. Today many are afraid to speak out for fear of the violent attacks so many have suffered. Having been part of this effort just a few years ago I saw this problem. Living a pleasant and spiritual life is no protection against the onslaught of the capitalist monster that demands total control and subservience. Working underground, so to say, is no protection when they decide to decimate you.

An insightful analysis of the origins of medical corruption and how deeply embedded it became; but it goes back further than that to at least the mid-19th century when the scientific method itself was corrupted while real science was buried by the same mind-set of profiteering; we now know (and have always known) that such false gods as Pasteur were instrumental in establishing the false paradigm of germ theory which was actually disproven even in his own time; it was the false belief in infectious pathogens that needed to be controlled that opened the door to widespread manipulation by the industrial cartels such as Rockefeller and others to this day; the real scientists and discoverers of that epoch were such geniuses as Antoine Bechamp and Florence Nightingale whose enormous contributions to medical science and human health remain unrecognized.
