What's in your food?
Ever wondered why you suddenly wake up one day to find yourself sneezing your head off? Why do you suddenly have allergy symptoms after 25 years of no such history? Wondered why suddenly your immune system is out of balance? Seems all out of place especially since you have moved to the economically most prosperous nation in the world where everything is plentiful!!!

Here's some valuable advice from a leading chiropractor and clinical nationalist in Dallas, TX: America is a land of abundance. Food is available cheap and in unimaginable quantities. But, unfortunately some form of unnatural chemical has touched every thing you can possible think of.

Cholesterol Myths The biggest scam to date is the one related to cholesterol. It is a huge misnomer that cholesterol is the biggest reason for heart attacks. 50% of the victims of such an attack have normal cholesterol level. It is big rig that the pharmacies pull off in conjunction with the government by portraying unnaturally low cholesterol and selling pills at 200$ per prescription!!! So next time someone tells you that there is ton of cholesterol in egg yolk/egg white know that its whole load of baloney... Eggs are good for you. And the cholesterol in it is natural.
There is a marvelously convincing ad on TV these days, for a drug called Crestor. It promises to significantly lower cholesterol levels.
