Just when you might have thought conventional medicine could not stoop any lower, they have outdone themselves again. The American Heart Association and the Journal of American Medical Association (the propaganda arm of the AMA) have cooperated to publish a very skewed study that suggests Vitamins E and C are useless for fighting coronary disease. The real reason they were able to conclude this is that the Vitamin E product used in the research was synthetic junk that the human body is not able to recognize as anything of nutritional value.
It is sad but true that most research linking any kind of wellness and disease prevention to natural products is squelched, minimized, and discredited by modern medicine and the media. (Linus Pauling and his excellent studies regarding the benefits of Vitamin C is one of many clear examples.) As we have often pointed out on this blog, if you track the money trail, you will find organizations such as the AHA, AMA, FDA, and others that are supposedly in place to protect our health with highly questionable connections that scream conflict of interest when it comes to credible research and information. Did you see the story the other day about Big Pharma's preferences and influence regarding the choice of the next head of the FDA? The way it is being presented in the press, no one is questioning why this should even be an issue. I can't think of a better example of the fox guarding the hen house, but they unashamedly pull these stunts and nobody, including the media, seems to blink an eye.
Politicians can talk until they are blue in the face about health care reform, but until this unholy alliance of profiteering at the expense of the health of Americans is exposed and brought down, no substantial change is likely to take place.
AHA to Launch Another Vitamin E Attack

The script reads like a bad Hollywood movie: make vitamin E look bad so men will line up like robots for their statins. Producer: the American Heart Association (AHA). The actors are all worthless no-names on Big Pharma's payroll. The story never ends; but the damage to health is very real.
JAMA released their "big" vitamin E study just in time for this week's AHA meeting. The study shows that vitamin E and C don't help heart disease in a large group of doctors. Poetic justice I guess -- giving synthetic and useless vitamins to the pill-pushers of America.
Consumer beware: scare tactics will be employed, as the puppets writing about the data say "This data provides no support for the use of these supplements [vitamin E and C] for the prevention of cardiovascular disease in middle-aged and older men." This is one big fat lie.
The vitamin E used in the study is a worthless synthetic produced from coal tar by the German drug company BASF. Yes, this is the same NAZI company that produced chemical weapons from coal tar and also produces all the food coloring in your food from coal tar. BASF has been poisoning Americans for decades, with blessings from their friends at the FDA.
Don't think for a moment that their synthetic vitamins actually do anything for your health. Calling the synthetic chemical compound used in this study "vitamin E" is a disgrace. Expect the media to run headlines, as they did a few weeks ago with another bogus vitamin E story.
If you would like to read the glorious history of the AHA scam attack on vitamin E so as to promote the sales of statins, then check out my previous article, The Statin Scam Marches On.
By the way, natural vitamin E, especially tocotrienols, is one of the top cardiovascular nutrients and vital to the health of middle aged and older men.
