Finally read the article....glad I did!

Last night, I finally got around to reading an article that Robert had saved for me and I'm glad I did. It was a review in the Star about Melody Petersen's book, Our Daily Meds: How the Pharmaceutical Companies Transformed Themselves into Slick Marketing Machines and Hooked the Nation on Prescription Drugs.

This morning, I ordered the book from Amazon. Should be a good resource!

In the New York Times book review by Janet Maslin, she writes, "Could drugs be killing people but escaping all the blame?"

She describes the job duties of a "nosologist" as, "to catalog Iowa's deceased according to cause of death. He processed 27,000 death certificates a year. By his reckoning, only five deaths were caused by adverse reactions to prescriptions drugs in 2002. That low figure is out of whack with Petersen's reporting."

Hmmmm....REALLY?

Have you seen Mercola's video yet?
