Potential Side Effects

It seems, here in America, we all need a cause to be intense about, be it for or against!  I believe we were created to be passionate about our beliefs.  The G-d of Israel created some amazing remedies for humanity, as well as given instruction that we could simply be healthy, but humanity came up with other ideas.

If you want to feel strongly about something, I suggest you read the possible side effects of some of the packages in your medicine cabinet.  Granted, some of the possibilities are very improbable, but statistically speaking, before you take something or give it to your child, how many people have already taken it and not been affected?  It's worth asking?  Say, the weird side effect only affects one in 10,000, but what's to say, the law of averages haven't come due?

We also know that most of the testing is cherry picked for results, so are we taking more risks than we should for instant symptom management?  The short answer, I believe is, yes.  Taking medication doesn't usually change one's habits or even one's health, it just masks or manages the symptoms.  Although, I don't use the same vocabulary and writing style, as is used in the article I'm linking, the information is quite interesting.  Also linked is a video by Gwen Olsen, a former pharmaceutical rep.
