The "Dangerous" Opium Poppy Flower. This plant is a threat to the powers-that-be.
On occasion, we are asked about all-natural pain neutralizers, which brings us to the disgusting position that all of us are in. All of the powerful pain-killing herbs have been outlawed amongst the general population, for the sake of maintaining Big Medica's stranglehold on emergency medicine. In this era, only members of the establishment are allowed access to natural herbs that effectively neutralize extreme pain.
Pain is one of the surest ways to ensure that we comply with their system, and sooner or later, our pain will make certain that we become "consumers" of it; whether we like it or not. We get educated about being good consumers through our pain, of which we are not allowed to remedy ourselves. The doctors and pharmacists play heroes by giving us the same medicines that are our God-given right to have in the first place. Most people buy into this fraudulent side-show, and they will never realize that all of the high-potency pain-killers are merely extracts of opium, or that our hallowed science does not even have the capability to do it without the natural compounds from this herb. This herb, is of course, illegal for the rest of us. These God-given medicinal plants are called "dangerous drugs" in our hands; but don't worry, for they have plenty of chemically-enhanced and chemically-laced opium extracts (heroin, morphine, codeine) that are expensive, dangerous, and intentionally addictive to be used in opium's place. Pure, organic opium is neither addictive nor dangerous -- until it is "enhanced" in a chemical laboratory. Ah, the miracles of science! I think not. The more educated a person becomes about Big Medica's pain-killing con-job, the less grateful he tends to be about these "miracle" drugs that "science" gave us. The dangerous and addictive drugs that are substituted for natural opium are more like dealing with the devil than any miracle, and there are hidden prices to be paid for their use.
We previously wrote the article, The History of Opium and The History of How the Pharmaceutical Industry Intentionally Created Drug Addictions. There is a noticeable pattern in which natural substances are often made dangerous and addictive when chemists 'improve' upon them. Now, opium, coca, and cannabis are all 'controlled substances'. An individual who wishes to control chronic pain can not legally grow the opium poppy for medicinal extraction, the coca plant, or cannabis, or use any of them in their safe, natural, nonaddictive, unrefined state. To use them or similar substances, one is required to make his pharmacist his state-mandated drug dealer, and he is required to use chemically tainted forms that cause addictions, organ damage, and various other unnecessary horrors. Did we mention that these will cost as much, or more, than one would pay for their equivalent potencies from alternative drug dealers? Legislators have made many medicinal substances illegal because they supposedly have the potential to be abused, but somehow when their partners are reaping top-dollar for versions of these substances, which are considerably more dangerous, then it's no longer dangerous "drug abuse" -- it's "legitimate medicine" then. (wink)
The arrogance of legislators really defies the imagination, because they apparently believe that God did not know what he was doing. Instead, these legislators believe that he made mistakes by creating plants that can cause people to have an altered sense of reality; and moreover, he made plants which could allow people to stop conforming to their lucrative system.
"... and the fruit thereof shall be for food, and the leaf thereof for healing."
-- Ezekiel 47:12
These plants have been used for centuries to provide pain relief. They only became harmful and addictive after they were refined by pharmaceutical chemists. Instead of restricting access to the new-age toxin-laden extracts, and legislating them; all medicinal uses of the plants were made illegal. The idea of illegalizing nature would seem fitting in a dystopian horror movie, but it can be seen in the present day. The government has been granted the right to effectively say, "God was wrong". Such madness is akin to trying to legislate the air (which they are implementing now), and the water (which they do with water privatization). In truth, nobody owns any of these things. Our God-fearing forefathers would not have tolerated any of this, and their inherent goodness caused them to love freedom on a level that most modern Americans cannot hope to comprehend. We are quickly losing the inheritance that they left us.
Sadly, only approved doctors (licensed drug dealers for the state) are allowed access to opium, and its refined extract; morphine. In other words, you must submit to the system before you are granted the 'privilege' of pain relief. When nature is shamelessly controlled by government regulators, for the sole benefit of the chemical industry, then it is a clear indication that we live in a tyrannical state. Once again, in the name of safety and security, we have lost our priceless freedoms. The Health Wyze Report Staff encourage readers to campaign for the rights of the people to have access to all plants, as nature itself should never be regulated.
Poisonous Tylenol Again
Remember that even 'safe' pharmaceuticals are dangerous. NSAIDs like Ibuprofen kill 16,500 people each year, and hospitalize over 100,000. In addition, Tylenol is known for causing permanent organ failure and sudden death. The so-called "safe and effective" Tylenol is extremely poisonous when combined with alcohol. In fact, it is likely to have killed a large number of college kids who were recovering from hang-overs, and then their deaths were blamed on their "binge drinking"; not the fact that the alcohol turned the Tylenol into a poison. (Note this parents.) Accidental overdoses are common, and when people do die, the death is slow and agonizing. While these numbers seem fairly small when compared to the number of people using them, they do become significant whenever one's relatives become a part of the statistics.
There are still some natural anti-inflammatory options in existence, which can be used to alleviate certain types of pain.
Curcumin is an extract of turmeric, and is believed to be one of the most powerful natural anti-inflammatories in existence. In fact, Dr. Russel Blaylock announced that he feels it is more powerful than some steroid medications. It should not be confused with the spice, cumin.
Cherries have a long history with the F.D.A., which sent out warning letters to all cherry farmers warning them to stop quoting scientific studies ("making medical claims") about their "unapproved drugs". Cherries are natural COX-2 inhibitors, which means that they specifically target inflammation in the body. Unlike pharmaceutical COX-2 inhibitors (Vioxx and Celebrex), cherries don't cause heart attacks, and tend to be more powerful too. Numerous studies have been done on the effects of cherries upon arthritis pain, showing very positive results. You can purchase concentrate cherry extract pills from health food stores.
A 2003 study showed that Devil's Claw extract was more effective for treating lower back pain than Vioxx. Devil's Claw is known for its pain relieving properties, and is therefore used for carpal tunnel, as well as arthritis. It is also a powerful anti-inflammatory agent.
White Willow Bark is a pain-reliever and blood thinner. You probably know its modern name: aspirin. Aspirin is the extract of White Willow bark. Although in the modern age, it is been created synthetically. You can buy White Willow bark at some health food stores. (You thought aspirin was another one of those "miracles of science", didn't you?)
The biggest difference between your doctor and the local drug dealer is that the drug dealer is much more honest about how he makes his money.

Protect Us From Our Friends
For many people I know -- especially many young people, Native Americans, and others alienated from American dominant culture -- the difference between liberals and conservatives is only in the technique used to coerce conformity and gain control.
My friend Roland Chrisjohn is a psychologist and a professor in the Native Studies Department at St. Thomas University, and he is also an Oneida of the Iroquois Nation. Roland says, "Protect me from my friends". While his enemies on the right murdered indigenous Americans to steal their land, Indians' so-called liberal "friends" forced assimilation through boarding schools that prohibited the use of tribal languages and customs, which made them easier to divide and conquer, and then "legally" rip them off. While the right favored massacres, the liberals preferred "curing" indigenous Americans and came up with sayings like, "Kill the Indian to save the child."
I spend a good deal of time with non-Indian kids who are also not fitting into American society, specifically its schools. A few of these kids are manipulative, exploitative caricatures of a manipulative, exploitative society. But most of the kids I see are a pleasure to hang out with precisely because they don't fit into their schools and society; and for these kids, liberals and conservatives are also two sides of the same oppressive coin.
When I write articles or give talks questioning the wisdom of prescribing kids speed in order to get them to shut up in a classroom, pay attention to a boring teacher, and do their meaningless homework, I get superficially different -- but essentially the same -- reactions from self-identified conservatives and liberals.
The conservative reacts, "Yeah, these kids don't need medication. They need their parents to get tough with them and show them whose boss. These teachers have their hands tied by liberals. Too much coddling has ruined America."
The liberal reacts, "While I agree that some children are incorrectly diagnosed and improperly medicated, my son was getting F's in school until he was prescribed Ritalin, and now he is going to college next fall, every parent's dream."
Similar to America's liberal-conservative "Indian problem" debate, something is missing from the liberal-conservative "problem child" debate. What's missing is the possibility that nothing is essentially wrong with these kids. What's missing is the possibility that they simply don't fit into the dominant culture that has opted for efficiency, bureaucracy, and corporate feudalism at the expense of meaningfulness, diversity, and genuine democracy. What's missing is the possibility that perhaps there is something admirable about their rebellion against authoritarian hierarchies and manipulative relationships.
The liberal-conservative media parades ex-maladaptives who are now grateful that authorities have modified them to fit in. Conservatives prefer ex-maladaptives who straightened out after their mother kicked them out of the house or father took the belt to them. Liberals prefer the ex-maladaptives who have been transformed through medical treatments.
Conservatives who have had an easy time fitting into society believe that those people who cannot fit in are lazy, stupid, or undisciplined. Liberals who easily fit into society believe that those people who cannot fit in are diseased or disordered. It is difficult for either of these -- conservatives or liberals -- to imagine that their view of progress is another group's view of insanity.
When a society worships itself, there is bigotry not only against those societies that don't share its values, but also against individuals within that society who don't buy in. And so "progress", as defined in modernity, means that personalities that don't buy into modernity need to be modified.
Do young people who don't comply with authorities for whom they do not respect have oppositional defiant disorder? Do kids who don't pay attention to boring authorities have attention deficit hyperactivity disorder? Do kids who feel threatened by an aggressive and competitive society have social anxiety disorder? Do these young people need to be reformed by behavior modifications and medications?
Conservative-liberal American society is sure of itself. It is sure of which cultures are backwards and which personalities need to be modified. And it is sure of its technologies for transforming other cultures and the problematic individuals within it. The goal of genocide and personality-cide is essentially the same: elimination of that aspect of humanity which gets in the way of the dominant culture's view of progress.
The price for all of this arrogance and bigotry is a certain kind of karma. For genocidal practices and stolen land, Indians have certainly not received political, legal, or economic justice. However, there is a justice being meted out for forcing Indians into becoming something they are not. Because of American society's denial and its failure to make amends for this violence, American society's karma is to repeat such coercions with its own children.
American society's karma for ignoring the resentment of Native Americans for forced conformity is that it now ignores its own children's resentment over similar coercion. And American's society is being severely punished for ignoring this resentment. A society's foundation is its families, and in the United States, familial relationships are being destroyed by children's resentment, which acts like a slow-killing poison.
