Midlife is a hard time for many people. Shifts in routine occur at this point that give rise to introspection, such as, children moving out, careers leveling off, and aging hindrances.
Even more assured in midlife are the effects of biological fluctuations. As we age,the body moves into a new phase of physiology.
What if you were considered to have a medical condition for the mere fact that you are getting older?
Hitting a certain age, and the response to easing the symptoms that accompany it, should not be monopolized by the pharmaceutical industry.
For women between 45 and 55, the most significant change is menopause. No aging woman can escape these hormonal clutches.
During menopause women stop menstruating, ending the reproductive years of life. Accompanying this is the end of reproduction hormone production.
There are many natural remedies that ease this natural phase of life. However, there are big pharma powers that want you to spend your cash on their cancer-causing pills, rather than letting nature take the course.
Alliance for Natural Health International(ANH) reported:
“the UK media industry self-regulator, the Advertising Standards Authority (ASA), classified menopause as “a serious medical condition”. This prepares the way for the prosecution of any seller or prescriber of food supplements or bioidentical hormone alternatives targeting this life stage of women.”
For decades now, the pharmaceutical industry has been trying to run any remedy they can’t control, and profit from, out of production.
This move by the ASA has clear motives, and the public should be worried.
In the UK, Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) regulate the prescription drugs.
Last year, the MHRA “classified 3 food supplement products aimed at supporting menopause as unlicensed drugs”, according to ANH International.
The popular herbal remedyblack cohosh was one that had to be removed from the natural remedy market, or they could have had legal charges brought up.
This is a perennial plant they are saying you can’t sell bottled.
All established health authorities will report menopause is a natural occurrence in women and not a medical condition that some may get, and others won’t.
According to the European Union, a medicinal product can only be labeled a medicine “if it is either presented to treat or prevent disease, or if its function is to correct, modify or restore physiological functions by exerting a pharmacological, immunological function.”
Menopause is not a disease. You cannot cure it, you cannot change its course, and you cannot restore your reproduction function thereafter.
The war between food supplements and drugs is active and fierce, but for any fan of natural remedies, the outcome is clear. Where nature prospers, prescriptions fall short.
It seems it is torturous for the multi-billion dollar pharmaceutical industry to see you improve better, and with less side-effect, with a plant you can grow in your backyard, than with the petri dish concoction they invented in a lab.
ANH International reported:
“The ASA has classified menopause as “a serious medical condition”. We’re not talking here of the treatment of, or reference to, symptoms, we’re talking about any reference to the term ‘menopause’ by an advertiser!”
The popularity of bio-identical hormones and herbal supplements has been drastically increasing among menopausal women.
Their effectiveness without the lethal side effects of healthcare regulated treatments has made them the preferred method.
Food and Drug Administration reported:
“Hormone medicines have side effects. Serious health problems can happen in women who take menopause hormone therapy.
* For some women, hormone medicines may raise their chances of blood clots, heart attacks, strokes and breast cancer.
* For some women who are 65 years old or older, hormone medicines may raise their chances of dementia.
* For women who still have their uterus, taking estrogen-only medicines raises their chance of getting cancer of the lining of the uterus or endometrial cancer. These women need to take progestin to prevent endometrial cancer.”
It is atrocious the agencies of influence are trying to force their hand on women going through a difficult, and unpreventable, life stage, into utilizing a drug known to cause serious side-effects.
And to think that the motive is to add piles of cash onto their billions they already have tucked away is horrendous.
We have not reached this point, yet, here in the US. However, beware the pharmaceutical superpowers are global.
It is only a matter of time until they push their agenda here. We need to be informed and prepared to stand up for nature’s cure.
