Infuriating.
Disgusting.
Sad.
Outrageous.
When I heard this news report the only thing that came to my mind were expletives!
EU body OKs chewable Lipitor for older children
And then I continued to read and found out that Lipitor has been approved for use in children age 10 to 17 in the United States since 2002!
Lipitor accounts for a whopping 23% of Pfizer’s total sales! That’s enormous!
But that’s beside the point. The point is that we need to wake up and take responsibility for our children’s health and we don’t do that by putting them on prescription drugs at the age of ten for something that can be fixed by a change in lifestyle.
If a ten-year-old is put on cholesterol lowering medication then what is next? Are they going to live their entire life on a drug without ever being taught about how to eat real food instead of processed, how to take live supplements instead of plastic-coated vitamins? Remember, drugs do NOT solve the problem. They mask the symptom.
I will tell you right now a simple, inexpensive, natural, essential supplement that can lower your cholesterol. Food Grade Diatomaceous Earth. This is just one. Do some research and I am sure you will find many options for lowering your cholesterol naturally but for some reason we have turned into a nation that thinks everything requires a drug to fix it.
The drug companies certainly don’t want you to know about it – not with 23% of their cash coming from their drug as you feed it to your children.
And what about the lifestyle that leads to high cholesterol? Take a look at how much processed, packaged, fake food you are eating. Do a candida cleanse. Walk.
And then there are the side effects. If a child is exposed to these drugs so early in life the chances of detrimental side effects must be significant.
I don’t understand what people are thinking sometimes. Here a person like Jamie Oliver is trying to change the way we feed our children and he is being attacked. And then Pfizer is making 23% of their sales from a drug that does nothing more remarkable than a healthy lifestyle will do and no one thinks anything of it.
