Don’t take health tips from celebs

"From Madonna’s quest to “neutralise radiation” to Tom Cruise’s dismissals of psychiatry, celebrities are seldom shy about expressing their views on health and science – even when they appear not to know what they are talking about. "

"Some – such as Oprah Winfrey and Kate Moss – espouse “detox” regimes, while others, such as Sharon and Kelly Osbourne, believe (mistakenly) that the Pill can cause cancer."

Don’t take health tips from celebs if you know what’s good for you

Don't take their political advice, endorsements or punditry either..............LOL

Not to give credence to Actors, but some of those things in the article have validity.

I refuse vaccines but rely on homeopathics and natural alternatives that do work, firsthand.

It is true, a lot of vaccines are laced with deadly preservatives like methyl mercury, a man made type of mercury that is detrimental to the body. Or chlorinating and fluoridating(man made fluoride) our water supply.

Did you know that when someone gets a flu shot, that they are highly contagious for 2 weeks?

Just simple 2+2 = 4 kinds of things that people ignore, when a guy with a PHD says that 2+2=5.

Poison=Poison right?

Doctors do have their place in emergencies and do much good for dieing people. There track record for long term care isn't so hopeful.

It's not just TV that rots your mind. All mass media is designed for one thing and one thing only. To confuse and scare you with ominous news and the placate you with advertising opportunities. Works most every time. See Alex.ImageHe's been brainwashed with his eyes wide open


Righty right !

"The pill" does increase cancer risk.

http://www.preventcancer.com/patients/m ... d/pill.htm

Take hormone altering drugs & you're basically a human guinea pig.

I agree that one shouldn't blindly listen to celebrates of course, this is just common sense.

Whenever I goto a normal supermarket I see an article from the checkout line about Oprah's "new diet". Makes me wonder, if the woman has been on a diet for 30-someodd years & is still fat (wanting to lose weight anyone) why do people take her seriously.

The supermarket checkout line is a pretty depressing place. Israel, Gaza, peak oil, climate change, Zimbabwians eating sh!t and we're still hearing about f*cking Angelia Jolie & Jennifer Aniston. And while legitmate worthwhile business go under people still buy this asswipe. Pretty depressing & another reason to support your local organic store or better yet, buy at farmer's markets & in bulk.
