Weaponized News New World Order politics, economics and current events

Yes, you read that right. The communist country of Cuba has less infant deaths when compared with the United States. This year in the United States, more than 25,000 babies will die within one year of being alive. According to a 2011 World Bank report, the United States ranks 46th when it comes to infant mortality, coming in behind the vast majority of Europe, behind Australia, New Zealand and Canada, behind Korea and even Cuba. How can Cuba have a lower rate of infant deaths than the United States. Is it Fidel Castro’s beard and green army fatigue cap that lend strength to the young mothers causing them to produce more virile infants? Or, is it because Cuba does not have any private clinics and the government pays for all health care thereby alleviating the stress of medical bills magically producing healthier citizens. Although these reasons are quite imaginative they are wrong.
This article is not going to give a definitive answer as to why there are less infant deaths in Cuba but it is interesting to note that in the 1990s the Cuban Ministry of Public Health officially recognized other disciplines of medicine and integrated them into the treatment of its people. This edict by the government and out of pure economic necessity people started to learn how to use locally grown herbs and natural remedies to heal themselves from common ailments rather than using expensive pharmaceuticals. It might be a shock to some but there are other schools of medicine in the world other than allopathic medicine which is also known as “western medicine”. Allopathic medicine dominates the healthcare industry in the United States and kills 100,000 people a year through prescription drugs. This does not even include the 210,000 people that die due to medical errors making medical errors the 3rd leading cause of death in the U.S.! Now, sometimes going to the hospital is unavoidable like in the case of a traumatic injury but it is absolute madness that people in the U.S. are having surgery to stop heartburn. In the case of heartburn, herbal and nutritional therapies can be of great benefit.
Could nutritional therapy also help decrease the infant mortality rate and even birth defects in the U.S.? One doctor in the United States seems to think so and says that allopathic doctors in the U.S. are doing a great disservice to young mothers. Dr. Joel Wallach, a veterinarian, naturopathic doctor, and comparative pathologist, says that pregnant mothers need 90 nutrients a day prior to and during pregnancy that would eliminate a host of illnesses and defects which includes SIDS (Sudden Infant Death Syndrome).
Some might dismiss Dr. Wallach’s assertions as being unscientific and speculative but Dr. Joel Wallach has already had an impact on what is currently in prenatal vitamins. He sued the FDA and won proving that folic acid deficiency in pregnant women would cause neural tube defects in young children; thereafter, folic acid was added into prenatal vitamins. These prenatal vitamins now contain 13 nutrients which still come up very short of the 90 nutrients Dr. Wallach recommends.
Not only did Dr. Wallach discover the benefits of folic acid but early in his career in the late 1970s he was the first to discover an animal case of cystic fibrosis. While working in the pathology department of the Yerkes Regional Primate Research Center, he discovered a deceased infant rhesus monkey with a selenium deficiency. Several other doctors then confirmed that the rhesus monkey had died from cystic fibrosis. The National Institutes of Health (NIH) invited Dr. Wallach to be a key speaker at an animal model conference. However, NIH would not publish Dr. Wallach’s research paper nor any of the proceedings of the conference. The NIH refused to publish the truth that cystic fibrosis was caused by a selenium deficiency in order to maintain the egos and profits for those already treating cystic fibrosis 1. Dr. Wallach was then ostracized by the NIH and made it a personal goal to help children with cystic fibrosis. Over the past thirty years Dr. Wallach has helped thousands of people improve their health with science based clinically verified nutrition therapy. Despite all the warnings from the mainstream media concerning vitamins and minerals, no one has ever died from nutrition therapy.
