The replacement drug, iomazenil, is a benzodiazepine, a class of drugs noted for their rapid inducement of addiction and coincident decrease in the positive sensations. The testing of iomazenil is focused on physical reactions [...]]]> http://gaia-health.com/gaia-blog/2012-05-14/plan-to-use-highly-addictive-drug-to-replace-alcohol-effects/feed/rss2/ 0 http://gaia-health.com/gaia-blog/2012-05-13/major-yeast-infection-drug-causes-birth-defects-natural-remedies-better/ http://gaia-health.com/gaia-blog/2012-05-13/major-yeast-infection-drug-causes-birth-defects-natural-remedies-better/#comments Sun, 13 May 2012 19:01:40 +0000 admin http://gaia-health.com/gaia-blog/?p=6516
The FDA admits Diflucan causes birth defects. When you consider that natural fungal treatments are often more effective and always safer, why would you use the drug?

The number of deaths due to Vioxx may be half a million, not the 60,000 originally and semi-officially acknowledged. Alexander Cockburn brings his incisive political analysis to show that life is treated as cheap in America. ]]> http://gaia-health.com/gaia-blog/2012-05-13/when-half-a-million-americans-died-and-nobody-noticed/feed/rss2/ 0 http://gaia-health.com/gaia-blog/2012-05-11/food-irradiation-cats-and-doublespeak-researchers-reinvent-reality/ http://gaia-health.com/gaia-blog/2012-05-11/food-irradiation-cats-and-doublespeak-researchers-reinvent-reality/#comments Fri, 11 May 2012 17:35:25 +0000 admin http://gaia-health.com/gaia-blog/?p=6451

In a bow to reality, Australia has just ended free pertussis vaccines for adults. The idea of cocooning—protecting babies from diseases by vaccinating adults—simply hasn't borne out. ]]> http://gaia-health.com/gaia-blog/2012-05-10/australia-ends-free-whooping-cough-vaccines-for-adults-doesnt-protect-babies/feed/rss2/ 0 http://gaia-health.com/gaia-blog/2012-05-10/new-gates-foundations-junk-cancer-study-to-push-vaccines/ http://gaia-health.com/gaia-blog/2012-05-10/new-gates-foundations-junk-cancer-study-to-push-vaccines/#comments Thu, 10 May 2012 14:20:36 +0000 admin http://gaia-health.com/gaia-blog/?p=6411
