![]() The Drugs No Senior Should Ever TakeA blacklist of dangerous drugs—confirmed by a congressional inquiry and published by a distinguished medical journalA team from Harvard Medical School identified 20 drugs too dangerous for use by elderly patients. Then they found out that 23% of seniors are receiving these very drugs. And the Journal of the American Medical Association said this study was "merely the tip of the iceberg." They were right. Now the list has grown to several dozen drugs. Congress was so disturbed it asked its watchdog agency, the General Accounting Office, to look into it. Using Medicare data, the GAO found over 17 percent of the elderly receive unsafe drugs. No matter which study you use, prescription drugs are putting roughly one out of five seniors in deadly danger. So what
was done?
Nothing
at all!

The same diabetes drug that increases your heart attack risk by 43 percent also causes bone loss! For heaven's sake, PLEASE try our natural solutions. We give you full details in our new book and in your collection of six FREE Bonus Reports on diabetes.
The more you know about diabetes drugs, the worse it gets...
Six of the most popular diabetes drugs should NEVER be given to patients who suffer from heart disease—and that's according to the FDA, not me. The list includes metformin, the top-selling diabetes drug in America after insulin.
Yet these medications are STILL being prescribed for 24 percent of patients who suffer from both diabetes and heart failure. That's about one patient out of four. A renowned medical journal, The Lancet, calls this scandal "the power of marketing over evidence-based medicine." Heart disease and diabetes go together like a horse and carriage. Most diabetes patients should avoid these drugs.
I sincerely believe every diabetes patient needs to read pages 179–196 of our book. Please take a free, no obligation look at the facts. You can preview our book without paying a dime. Click here now to order.

Who needs prescription drugs? You can reduce your blood sugar with one of the cheapest, simplest foods on earth: Apple cider vinegar.
Exciting new research from the University of Arizona proves it. And you'll see the evidence in this new Bonus Report, yours FREE when you send for your 30-day FREE preview of our book, Prescription for Drug Alternatives.
There's a small catch: You need to take enough vinegar, i.e., the research dose. If you don't eat much vinegar in your normal meals, let me show you an easy way to slip it "down the hatch." In fact, you can take your vinegar in supplement form. Your FREE Report includes sources.
P.S. Vinegar helps relieve arthritis pain, too. Get the report and see.
Got off insulin and got his eyesight back!"After being diagnosed with type 1 diabetes, which brought about daily insulin shots in the abdomen, I suffered significant loss of eyesight and internal organ complications. I consulted with Dr. Mark Stengler and he provided me with a protocol of diet and natural medicines that balanced out my blood sugar levels—naturally!... Since following his protocol, I have recovered and am free from insulin shots. I also regained the ability to read again. I highly recommend Dr. Stengler and his book, which are nothing short of lifesaving. Thank you Dr. Stengler!" —Shawn J. Mitchell, Oceanside, CA |

Cholesterol-reducing statin drugs are just patented knockoffs of a simple food that Asians have eaten for centuries. You can buy it in pill form in any health food store—for 93% less than the drug companies charge!
It's a rice extract that's better for you, much safer, and it's also rich in other heart-healthy nutrients you won't find in the $1,740 drug.
Some folks might be wary of trying a natural solution that conventional M.Ds. don't know about. I can understand that.
But why not try a natural solution that contains the same active ingredient as the drug? Especially when you can buy it for 93 percent less!
|
Researchers at UCLA Medical School proved the natural statin in red yeast rice extract slashes LDL or "bad" cholesterol 22 percent in just 12 weeks.
And a four-year study in China showed that people who take the extract suffered almost 37 percent fewer heart-related deaths compared to those on a placebo (a sugar pill). You can look it up in the Journal of the American Geriatrics Society.
The natural remedy avoids most of the miserable side effects of expensive drugs. The side effects are so horrible, four out of 10 people quit the drugs within six months!
The rice extract gets the job done with a tiny fraction of the statin dose found in the drugs. It just makes sense: Lower dose, fewer side effects.
And the natural extract contains more than just lovastatin—the substance that was turned into a drug. The rice product contains a family of related substances that may also help cut cholesterol. You don't get those in the drug company statins.
The #1 prescription drug in America is a cholesterol drug. It rakes in about $8 billion a year. And three of the top 15 drugs are in the same category. They're called statin drugs.
Statin drugs give most people little or no protection against heart disease. I've got a natural answer for you, and it's even better than red yeast rice extract.
Researchers in Europe were amazed to find an overlooked vitamin that reduces deaths from heart disease by half.
But there's no room for doubt. This was a major long-term study. The scientists studied 4,807 people over a seven- to 10-year period. The people who ate high amounts of this super nutrient suffered only half the number of cardiovascular deaths. In fact, they had 25 percent less risk of dying from any cause.
You'll get all the details in the FREE Bonus Report, Four Super Nutrients for Your Heart.
This new vitamin comes in two forms, and the second form—the one used in the big study—is absorbed better and remains active in the body longer. Request the FREE Report and see for yourself!

Vitamin E is good for your heart, but only one form of E actually destroys plaque that's already present. And it's probably not the form on your shelf.
You see, vitamin E comes in eight forms, and the typical supplement has only one. In fact, you probably need to throw out the brand you've got—it's useless. Check this FREE report and see.
Then buy the right stuff and watch your LDL "bad" cholesterol number plummet.
If you take the first two vitamins I just mentioned, you're on your way to beating cholesterol without drugs. Now finish it off for good with a vegetable tonic that slashes LDL up to 12 percent and reduces triglycerides (fats in your blood) up to 19 percent.
This tonic actually stops new plaque from forming. People who take it develop two-thirds less new plaque than those on a placebo.
It also thins the blood (no more need to take Plavix® or Coumadin®,)—and slashes other heart attack markers including homocysteine and the new measure of inflammation, C-reactive protein or CRP.
My fourth recommendation is one of the most amazing nutritional discoveries of recent times: Pomegranate juice. Yes, it's the real deal. In a test group of folks with severe artery blockage, the red juice got rid of more than a third of their plaque in only one year! In fact, you'll see the benefits within weeks.
But a sip now and then isn't enough to do the job.
See this FREE Report for the research dose that got those amazing results!

Lost his job thanks to a bad drug reaction. |
"My husband is a tennis pro," the woman confided. "He went to his doctor, who checked his cholesterol and put him on Lipitor®. He developed muscle pain, and now he can't play tennis anymore."*
*Based on the book Before You Take That Pill, by J. Douglas Bremner, M.D. (Avery/Penguin Group)
This woman's husband was only 40 years old and in perfect health. He didn't have any risk factors for heart disease, such as smoking, high blood pressure or being overweight.
Now he suffers from myalgia—muscle pain. It's a common side effect of statin drugs. He would've been better off not going to the doctor. He was fine. Now his young life is wrecked by a stupid medical mistake.
You might think, "Side effects are just the price you pay. At least he's protected from heart disease, isn't he?" The answer is: Probably not. Statin drugs give most people almost no protection against heart disease. When it comes to statins, there's lots of pain and almost no gain.
He could have saved himself a lot of trouble if he could have read page 129 of our new book, Prescription for Drug Alternatives. It tells all about the muscle pain side effect. And that's just one of 11 major side effects the book warns about.
You'll also see how the National Institutes of Health (NIH) issued guidelines that would put a staggering 37 million Americans on statin drugs—including millions of healthy people with no sign of heart disease. Almost all the scientists who wrote the guidelines had financial ties to the big pharmaceutical companies.
Not everyone's on the take. Dozens of honest doctors and scientists wrote a letter to NIH to warn against the new guidelines and protest this conflict of interest. You'll see their stunning indictment in the book (page 126), but I want to tell you one thing they said right now, because it's too important to wait:
One shocking study showed a 25 percent increase in cancer with statin treatment. In another study, 12 women in the statin group developed breast cancer vs. one woman in the control group.
Don't get me wrong. I'm not totally against these drugs. They're appropriate for some people with heart disease—as a last resort. But the vast majority of my patients get better results with my natural treatments.
Prescription drugs alter the human body in profound ways never seen before in the history of the human race.
You're the guinea pig if you take these drugs (or any new drug). Why do you think so many drugs have to be pulled off the market? The FDA and the drug makers don't identify all the side effects. YOU get to do that.
Why take the risk? You can get off statins within weeks. Just claim your 6 FREE Healthy Heart Bonus Reports along with 20 other reports—a total of 26—with your FREE-PREVIEW of our new 496-page book, Prescription for Drug Alternatives. Click here now.
Joseph, age 49, came to me because he often felt dizzy at work. Sometimes he even fainted. That was really bad news because he worked in construction, around dangerous equipment. He also felt "a strange jolt in his heart" from time to time.
As I talked with Joseph I soon found out the problem had started a couple of years before. It was about the time his doctor put him on two medications for high blood pressure—a diuretic and an ACE inhibitor.
These blood pressure medications bring along more side effects, drug interactions and food/supplement interactions than just about any other drugs on the market. In our book you'll see a detailed list of warnings for all the major blood pressure medications.
Most patients can't stand these medicines. Many quit within months and refuse to take them ever again.
There are five categories of blood pressure drugs, and it's like they're in a race to see which one can be the most dangerous!
Joseph didn't even connect his problem to the medications. But after some tests ruled out other causes, I zeroed in on his two prescription drugs. Bingo!
Here's what happened: Diuretic blood pressure drugs increase the body's output of urine. The loss of all that water strips the body of potassium, plus a long list of other minerals you can't do without.
Joseph's fainting and dizzy spells usually occurred at work, when he was out in the sun. So I figured the heat was dehydrating him and speeding up his loss of potassium to the point where he'd pass out.
I advised him to bring a potassium-rich vegetable juice (such as V8®) to work to keep up his potassium levels. I also prescribed two of the blood pressure supplements you'll find on page 117 of our book.
Soon the dizziness and fainting disappeared. The "strange jolts" to Joe's heart eventually went away, too. Within two months we were able to cut Joseph's dose of one of his drugs (the ACE inhibitor) in half. And a few months after that his blood pressure was healthy and he was off the drug completely.
Joe says he feels better than he has in years!
What?! My blood pressure drug can stop my heart? |
One common blood pressure drug is so bad it's doubtful that anyone should take it, ever. A respected M.D. says overdose from this drug "is rapidly emerging as the most lethal prescription ingestion [i.e. pill]."
And another M.D., J. Douglas Bremner, says this fancy new type of drug is associated with a 26 percent increase in heart attacks compared to "old-fashioned" diuretic drugs that cost a third as much!
Yet—amazingly—it's hailed as a breakthrough and millions take it. This one class of drugs is a $2 billion industry. So when will this one be removed from the shelves—in time to save you and those you love?
The number 10 top-selling drug in the country can actually do the opposite of what you take it for. If you combine it with a certain other top-selling drug, you almost double your risk of heart attack!
Even if you take it as directed, this blood thinner can give you blood clots—the opposite of what it's supposed to do. (See "Major Cautions" on page 81 of our book.)
And if you get a headache, don't touch that painkiller! You can't take them when you take blood thinners. (See "Known Drug Interactions" on page 81.)
And cheaper blood thinners like warfarin aren't much better. You'll see—request your FREE-Preview copy of the book by clicking here and look under "B" for blood pressure (page 105).
| "An aspirin a day (five cents) gives you just as much heart protection as this $3-a-day drug. Can you believe it? And fish oil is even safer and better!" |
The FDA itself admits it: 80 percent of the benefit of depression drugs is from the placebo effect. In half the studies that have been done, the drugs were no better than a sugar pill.
Does that mean they have no effect? You wish! The fact is, they can mess you up in 242 ways. Over a 10-year period, the most popular depression drugs—SSRIs—were associated with more deaths, hospitalizations and serious drug reactions than any other prescription drugs.
Where can you turn? To page 173 of our book! You'll find an amino acid-like supplement that performs just as well as prescription antidepressants in head-to-head tests. PLUS, an even better depression cure that costs just pennies a day!
Top prescription drugs for migraine headaches carry a serious risk of heart attack and stroke
You'd know that if you'd read our book. Look under "H" for headache (page 233). We name names—all six brands in this family of drugs called triptans.
Then on page 239 you can check out our natural solutions. You might be surprised...
Most migraine patients are starving for CoQ10, magnesium and vitamin B2. The vitamin alone brought pain relief to 68 percent of migraine patients in a Belgian study. And patients taking CoQ10 see the number of migraine episodes go down by half.
Some of my patients completely cure their headaches just by taking the three nutrients.
If you still need a medicine, try two that Mother Nature provides free. One herb cuts the number of migraine attacks nearly in half and the other one is even better: It slashes the number of headaches by 61.7 percent. And those rare times when you still get a headache, you can expect the pain to be only one-third of what it used to be.
I'm talking about America's number 1 drug for preventing bone loss. Women who take it for more than four years often suffer a certain type of leg fracture.
And get this: You won't need a fall or some other accident to break a bone. The fractures can happen all by themselves!
It gets worse. This drug and other drugs in the same family can inflict heart problems, ulcers and more. The FDA says the drugs can cause crippling bone and joint pain—and the "experts" don't know why.
Check page 309 in our book and you'll see the dreadful dangers and side effects of nine brand-name osteoporosis drugs. And you'll get a full report on the Cornell study in a FREE Bonus Report called The Osteoporosis Drug that Causes Fractures. The bonus leaves no doubt that America's number 1 osteoporosis drug is a deadly menace!
In your FREE Report you'll find another shocker: The heart problems I just mentioned continue AFTER women stop taking the drug. In my opinion, the sooner you quit the better.
How can it be?
How can these drugs do
the opposite of what they were
designed for—and the medical
experts missed it?
Here's what happened: Our bones are living things, and our bodies remove old bone all the time, and then build new bone to replace it. It's a natural process. The drugs interfere with nature and prevent the process of bone removal.
Sounds like a good idea if you want to prevent bone loss, right? That's what the drug companies thought. The problem is, you can't build new bone if you don't remove the old. After a few years, all your bone cells are older and more brittle than they would be if you just left things alone.
This shocking scandal happened because drugs are tested for just a few years—not long enough to discover long-term side effects.
In fact, half the short-term side effects aren't identified, either—until after the drug goes on the market. You get to do the identifying. You're the guinea pig.
And besides... You can save your bones the natural way, for pennies.
We're all going to get thin bones some day—including us men. It's an inevitable part of the aging process. The problem is, some people age too fast.
They already have "old bones" in their 50s while other people don't get old bones until they're past 100. I know which group I want to be in! And I'm sure I will be, because it's easy to slow down this part of the aging process...
Flip to page 317 of our book and discover a soy extract that increases bone density by 5.8 percent in just one year. Those are powerful results.
Pharmaceutical companies put out a press release if a drug increases bone density by up to 3 percent in three years. In our book you'll see the brand name of the drug I have in mind. It will cost you about $704 a year—for the rest of your life!
That's what they charge for a drug that takes three times as long to do half as much as the soy extract.
A few pages back I mentioned a vitamin that cuts your risk of heart attack in half. Most people have never heard of it, and it's not in any multivitamin I know of.
Guess what, the same little known vitamin cuts your risk of hip fracture by 50%!
Those are the kind of results you'll get when you give nature a hand instead of taking a drug that gums up the works!
"6% increase in hip bone density in one year...""Thanks to Dr. Stengler, I have been rebuilding bone density on a consistent basis, without any medication... I can even do a leg press of over 300 pounds! At 63 years young, that's pretty good!" —Peggy Smith California |

a 44 percent increased risk of breaking a
hip if you take drugs to stop your stomach from making acid.
They proved it with a huge study of 148,942 patients.

Most Americans have no idea how dangerous painkilling drugs are. Every single painkiller is dangerous. ALL OF THEM.
You can get an ulcer in one month from naproxen, a common over-the-counter pain drug. For a while, it was the drug rated number 1 in the country for adverse drug reactions.
But that's nothing. ALL drugs in this class cause ulcers and gastrointestinal bleeding. That includes aspirin, ibuprofen, diclofenac, Celebrex, and a long list of others. But there's more...
If you thought Vioxx® was the only one, think again.
They ALL bring a risk of heart failure.
They're called NSAIDs (nonsteroid anti-inflammatory drugs), and they cause more dangerous side effects and deaths than any other group of drugs.
And what about acetaminophen—the only common pain drug that's not a NSAID? It's the number 1 cause of liver failure. It causes 56,000 emergency room visits a year!
"They told her surgery or cortisone injections were the only answers for her degenerated discs. She came to me and got rid of the pain in 5 days!"
This lady was one of my first success stories with an amazing new "heating pad" that uses a special type of infrared light. The light waves vibrate at the same frequency as human cells.
After just five sessions, she was so
delighted she bought one herself. They don't

Joanna was a professional athlete when a freak accident benched her for life. She fell off a ladder and broke her ankle. She lost 40 percent of her ankle cartilage and then degenerative arthritis set in. Surgeons said there was nothing they could do. Ibuprofen and Celebrex didn't bring much relief.
She came to me at age 46, after six years of agonizing pain. I prescribed a natural rub-on cream. In one week, Joanna's pain was nearly gone, and in two weeks she was able to stop medications completely.

Myth #1: My pharmacy will warn me if I'm combining the wrong drugs.
FACT: Don't count on it. A research team submitted dangerous drug combinations to 245 drugstores in seven cities. These were clear-cut cases. The pharmacist should have refused to fill the prescriptions or called the doctor. The stores went right ahead and filled them 32 percent of the time.
Myth #2: The drug packaging tells everything I need to know about side effects.
FACT: The side effect info is usually a laundry list of every reaction you can imagine, put there to protect the maker from lawsuits. A healthy young woman in California died of a seizure caused by a common antidepressant. The side effect was listed on page 9 of the instructions.
Myth #3: My doctor will warn me about any serious dangers from my meds.
FACT: An FDA study showed doctors almost never discuss the dangers of drugs with their patients. The docs expect you to read the info in the drug packaging. Which brings us to the next myth...
Myth #4: Really serious drug reactions are rare.
FACT: Reactions to prescription drugs are the number 4 cause of death in the United States, after heart attacks, cancer and strokes. And two million people a year are severely injured.
Prescription drugs are 10 times more likely to put you in the hospital than a car accident!
