California Chiropractor calls Prince’s death, ‘One more example of gross medical stupidity!’

CORTE MADERA, Calif., May 5, 2016 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) -- Noted Marin County chiropractor, Dr. Donald E. Harte, calls out noted Marin County "addiction specialist," Dr. Howard Kornfeld, as "having a totally wrong-headed approach."

"We have a clearly idiotic but all-too-common case of Medicine making business for itself," according to Dr. Harte. The latest news reports indicate that Prince had a very bad hip, and had become addicted to Percocet, an opioid pain-killer.

"It is clear that Medicine, in general, is about suppressing symptoms rather than achieving health. In this case, Prince's case, the result is quite the opposite... death." Harte goes on, "When chiropractic care is available, to deal with the causes of pain, as well as other health issues, it is just plain stupid for doctors to merely cover up pain, as a main mode of care."

Dr. Harte likens the medical practice of "pain management" to this: "If your house catches fire, and the smoke alarm goes off, would you take a hammer and whack the alarm, or would you call 9-1-1, and get your family out safely?" He states, "Medical studies of MRI, etc. have admitted that they really cannot pinpoint the cause of pain in their patients. Of course, they use MRI's to sell orthopedic surgeries. The record is so bad, here, that what happens is officially known as 'Failed Back Surgery Syndrome.' Often, patients end up in worse pain, which increases their need for pain meds. The scam goes on!"

"Legal drug addiction is becoming epidemic. Prince was but one victim, a victim of medical procedure, and of medical thinking." He notes, "This 'iatrogenic,' or medically-caused explosion of addiction has created and sustained a whole new medical specialty, drug rehabilitation. This is the specialty of Dr. Kornfeld. He was going to 'save' Prince. Too little, too late!"

"As a gross example of the lack of shame by the medical profession, there was a medical building in San Rafael. The front was 'pain management.' The back was drug rehab. The building has been torn down. I believe that the doctor has been indicted."

Dr. Harte points out, "Medicine, especially orthopedic medicine, has become far more aggressive these days, causing far more damage, physically and chemically. The safe and effective alternative is Chiropractic. Ignorance and bigotry cannot keep WHAT WORKS a secret."

California Chiropractor calls new use for common diabetes drug ‘NUTS!’

CORTE MADERA, Calif., Feb. 22, 2016 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) -- Dr. Don Harte, noted Marin County chiropractic activist, is calling the latest proposed use of the diabetes drug, metformin, "Nuts!"

"In the 2/22/16 issue of TIME magazine, in what they call the 'Longevity Issue,' I have seen THE most outrageous potential claim that Medicine has ever made," declares Dr. Harte. "The author has 'Burning Question #5'...'Can a diabetes drug cure aging?'" Harte is upset: "This is THE most scientifically depraved thing that I have heard in a long time from Medicine."

Dr. Harte states, "From what I've read in this article, the research basis for this claim is questionable, the basic science is baseless and the forecast of economic benefits is fantasy beyond what even Congress could come up with." He notes, "The author is saying that they believe that this common diabetes drug, metformin, may 'cure aging.' She writes, 'There are lots of things to suggest metformin is a little bit on the edge of magic.' Medicine has made claims like that, in previous years, for everything from cocaine to thalidomide to Fen-Phen."

"I am outraged by this illogical, unscientific concept that they are pushing, that a drug can make you healthy. Prescribing metformin to diabetics may artificially control their blood sugar levels, but it neither cures diabetes nor makes anyone healthy. Prescribing metformin to non-diabetics will make them hypoglycemic, which is, by any doctor's standards, sick."

Dr. Harte goes on, "Rather than curing diabetes or creating 'health,' you should check out all the side effects of metformin, including increased infections, headaches, digestive problems, muscle pain and light-headedness." He adds, "Seen the late night lawyer ads on TV? So many diabetes drugs have been taken off the market due to death from heart disease. That's how I lost my father, a very long time ago."

"Philosophically," Dr. Harte says, "Medicine IS NUTS. They actually think, or want you to think, that health comes from their drugs and their surgery, from 'Outside-in.' In Chiropractic, we're smart enough to appreciate that health comes from within. Chiropractic corrects interference to your body's own innate intelligence, allowing your body to heal itself. It's as simple as that!"

Dr. Harte notes, "When I was a kid, I used to read the comics in the newspapers. Now, I read the multi-page, slick drug ads and the 'latest medical miracle' articles in TIME magazine. Same thing!"

Best New Year’s Health Advice: Beware of Doctor’s Scare Tactics!

CORTE MADERA, Calif., Jan. 5, 2016 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) -- Dr. Don Harte, noted California chiropractic and health activist, offers everyone the most direct health advice he can for the New Year: "Want Health? Don't fall for the scare tactics of your doctor! Pursue health instead!"

Understanding that his advice could be confusing to some, "Scare tactics are so standard in medical practice these days, that they are considered normal in society. Instead of pursuing health, Big Medicine, and its two degenerate siblings, Big Pharma and Big Government have fooled you." Dr. Harte continues, "They have convinced an already over-diagnosed, over-drugged society that doing anything and everything to avoid disease is the same as pursuing health. Imagine -- they sell drugs as 'wellness!'"

"One of the great scams of our time," Dr. Harte says, "is preventative medicine. The problem with preventative medicine is that it prevents health." He says "the whole concept of preventative medicine is a mindset of fear. Diseases that are known to be mild and non-life-threatening are deliberately labeled as dangerous. Some are just falsely pushed as killer diseases through gross manipulation of statistics. A lot of this medical propaganda serves as marketing material for unnecessary and risky vaccinations. The frenzy WILL get worse this year."

"Chiropractic is founded upon the fact that the body is capable of healing itself," according to Dr. Harte. "Chiropractic springs from a philosophy of empowerment." He contrasts this with Medicine. "The philosophy of Medicine is, clearly, a philosophy of fear. It is through this fear that they create the huge market for their vaccines, which sells their inaccurate and probably dangerous diagnostic procedures, like mammography, which puts and keeps millions on lifetime prescriptions to allegedly prevent heart attacks and strokes. They have, falsely, painted a substance that the body actually makes itself, cholesterol, as some sort of chemical killing monster. Their drugs to bring down cholesterol levels, the statins, causing far more problems than they prevent." He goes on: "But in this climate of Medicine-induced fear, logic and the facts of basic biology are thrown out of the window."

Dr. Harte notes, "The scare tactics of Big Medicine often take shape in the bigotry of those who automatically hate those with differing, more natural views of health and disease." He advises, "If you truly desire better health in the New Year, reject medical scare tactics. Respect you own body's innate capacity to heal, to function normally. Empower that capacity by liberating your own nervous system through regular, wellness chiropractic care. The only true healing is from the inside-out."

Fall Flu Shot Propaganda Extravaganza is Off and Running!

CORTE MADERA, Calif., Sept. 29, 2015 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) -- Dr. Don Harte, renowned Marin straight chiropractor, warns, "Fall has begun. With that, the annual media blitz to convince us all to line up, like sheep, for the flu shot."

"Last week's headline," he relates, "says 'Flu vaccine seen as a better match. Health experts hope to avoid repeat of last year's debacle.'" Dr. Harte asks, rhetorically, "You really listen to this stuff?"

"If so many didn't believe this pseudo-scientific fantasy, it would be funny." Harte goes on to say that Federal officials "... emphasized that, unlike last year, this year's vaccine appears to be a good match for the strains of flu they expect to hit the U.S."

"Really?" he asks. "The CDC must have fortune tellers in white coats. They are declaring a good match of something they just cooked up, for something that hasn't appeared yet. This is science?"

Dr. Harte said, "In Pleasant Prairie, Wisconsin, a 26 year old woman, a newlywed, a radiology technician, died from flu complications after she received the flu shot. She had no choice, as it was a condition of her employment." Harte points out, "From a medical procedure to allegedly prevent a non-fatal disease, a young woman has died. She is not the only victim. THE most common side effect is Guillain-Barre Syndrome (GBS), a debilitating, paralyzing neurological condition. I have one such victim of flu vaccine-caused GBS in my practice. This formerly healthy, athletic man walks unsteadily with 'drop foot,' with a profound loss of memory."

Dr. Harte states, "More people have died from the flu after getting the flu vaccine, than from Ebola." He goes on, "Public health officials, on this topic, are public liars. They continue to bleat the figure of 36,000 deaths from influenza. This figure is bogus. It is for influenza AND pneumonia. Leave out the pneumonia deaths, and there are usually less than 300 deaths from influenza." He adds, "This is typical of government lies in the service of Big Pharma. Disgusting!"

"The problem with preventative medicine," Dr. Harte says, "is that it prevents health. Better health prevents disease and improves function." He goes on, "Chiropractic has proven itself during the Great Flu Pandemic of 1918, saving tens of thousands of lives, when medical care was powerless. Chiropractic liberates the nervous system, allowing the immune system to work better. Vaccinations subvert normal immune pathways, interfering with health. What's your choice, this flu season?"

Government Attacks California Chiropractic Activist for His Opposition to Forced Mass Poisoning of Children: Chiropractor Charges Govt. with Hate Crime

CORTE MADERA, Calif., July 29, 2015 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) -- Dr. Don Harte, noted straight chiropractor in Marin County, California, received two complaints from the California Board of Chiropractic Examiners last week. "I expected to be attacked by a government that not merely protects the medical industry; it actively promotes that industry, and forces their procedures upon us, especially the children, without regard to safety, efficacy or the right to choose." Sadly, "I didn't expect to be attacked for my religion."

"It's about one of my anti-vaccination pieces. It's kind of funny," Dr. Harte says, "since they claim that the piece is an advertisement, even though it is clearly a Letter to the Editor in the Pacific Sun (http://www.pacificsun.com/letter-childhood-disease-not-tragedy/), the Marin County weekly newspaper." He believes "The Board is playing a jurisdiction game. They don't have that jurisdiction, so they call a non-ad an ad. Government logic."

Dr. Harte goes on, "The Board has a history of having problems with free speech. They don't like it when chiropractors deviate from sitting in the back of the health care bus, when chiropractors, like myself, tell the truth ... that Chiropractic is not about fixing minor back pain, but rather, about liberating the nervous system for optimal health."

"In general," according to Dr. Harte, "The Board seems to think that its mission is to protect the public from Chiropractic. A decade ago, I was attacked by the Board for telling the real story of Chiropractic in my advertisements. That case was dismissed, and their special investigator fled the state. For that, I was awarded 'Chiropractor of the Year' in 2006."

Dr. Harte is proud to say "I've been involved in the opposition to vaccination for many years, from the flu vaccine (http://www.sfgate.com/opinion/openforum/article/Alternative-to-the-sting-of-a-failed-flu-vaccine-2827733.php) to Guardisil (http://www.marinij.com/general-news/20071101/donald-harte-is-there-a-vaccine-that-protects-against-non-science) to vaccine contamination and the urgent need to re-evaluate the societal position of Medicine (http://www.sfgate.com/opinion/openforum/article/Time-for-a-regime-change-in-attitude-about-2688948.php) to the evil of government mandates, including fighting the recent bill, SB277, that destroys personal belief and religious exemptions. Some even think that, as a chiropractor, I am unqualified to speak about this topic." He adds, "The hate mail I receive? What people think is a scientific position is hilarious. But their totalitarian political views, some even wanting to jail parents who don't vaccinate their children, are frightening."

"To straighten it out for those who are ignorant about chiropractic education, we get, essentially, the same basic sciences as in medical school, including immunology and toxicology, which are directly relevant to this topic. On top of this," Dr. Harte says, "the vitalistic philosophy of Chiropractic (http://www.chirodrharte.com/about-us/) gives the straight chiropractor far more wisdom to appreciate how the body actually works. It is easy for me to comprehend that vaccination subverts normal immune processes, and that the addition of a variety of substances that are toxic to the immune and nervous systems can only be disastrous to health. The cultish acceptance of anything medical does not change these scientific facts."

"The alleged hate crime committed by the Chiropractic Board," according to Dr. Harte, "is evident in that the one piece, amongst all of my writings, that they chose to persecute me for, was entitled 'Measles, Schmeasles.' This is what might be called a 'Yiddishism,' a particularly Jewish way to express disdain for something, to express its lack of importance. Since I am Jewish, and this manner of expression is almost unheard of in the San Francisco Bay Area, I find it odd that the Board picked this one to attack."

CA SB277: Marin Chiropractor Charges California with ‘Chemical Child Molestation’

CORTE MADERA, Calif., June 30, 2015 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) -- Dr. Don Harte, Marin chiropractor, notes with disgust, "Today, June 30th, California Governor Brown signed SB277, stripping away both personal belief and religious exemptions for childhood vaccinations."

"In his 'signing message,'" says Dr. Harte, "the governor says 'The science is clear that vaccines dramatically protect children against a number of infectious and dangerous disease.' What the governor refers to is not science; it is whored-out pseudo-science bought and paid-for by Big Pharma. And, just to be accurate, one of those diseases is not infectious, and several are not dangerous."

"There are two basic problems, here, that have brought about this sad day in California," according to Dr. Harte. "The first is that society assumes that whatever Medicine says must be true, must be scientific, and must be for the public good. A lack of critical thinking in science is always disastrous. So, let's think! Medicine has figured out a way to circumvent the normal pathways of the immune system with vaccines, upping their 'effectiveness' by adding a number of poisonous substances that no one would tolerate in their water supply. That's the relatively theoretical part of this."

"Medicine's historical mythology," declares Dr. Harte, "is based upon a grotesque lie. The old scourges of infectious disease went away due to modern sewage systems, clean water, refrigeration, etc. There was a polio epidemic in the 1920's, which disappeared without any vaccine."

Dr. Harte goes on. "The proof in the pudding is that, as the number of required vaccinations has gone from five to 89, previously rare childhood disease have now become commonplace -- autism, Type I diabetes, life-threatening allergies, juvenile arthritis, leukemia, asthma and Crohn's Disease. In these couple of generations, the environment has gotten cleaner, except for the internal environment of the children, polluted by mercury, aluminum, formaldehyde, ethylene glycol, MSG, etc."

"The second basic problem," according to Dr. Harte, "is that of Big Brother in a White Coat. People are willing to give up liberty, even do damage to the parent-child bond, to secure some false sense of medical security, and our power-mad politicians are eager to take that liberty."

"I charge the governor and every legislator who voted for SB277, this piece of medical Nazism, as destroyers of the family, enemies of liberty and chemical child molesters," says Dr. Harte. As a note to parents, he states, "If my son was still in school, I'd be thinking of methods of resistance."

Opinion: The Failure of Medicine and Opioid Addiction

CORTE MADERA, Calif., June 15, 2015 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) -- "Giving voice to a growing public health problem," notes Dr. Don Harte, Marin County straight chiropractor, "a recent cover of TIME magazine bears a picture of a fishhook, with a pill as 'bait.' That cover proclaims 'They're the most powerful painkillers ever invented. And they're creating the worst addiction crisis America has ever seen.' No kidding!"

"Over the last couple of decades, Medicine and Big Pharma have been upping the ante on pain pills," explains Dr. Harte. "Government agencies had the brakes on opioids for a long time. Then came the 'cox 2 inhibitors,' Vioxx and Celebrex. Vioxx was taken off the market in 2004, after killing more people than we lost in Vietnam. Now the brakes are off the opioids, including Opana and Oxycontin."

"Over the last couple of decades," Dr. Harte goes on, "orthopedists have gotten into extremely aggressive marketing with spinal surgery. The top operation now, in this country, is spinal fusion." He goes on, "With the possible exception of unstable fractures and cancerous bone tumors, back surgery, especially spinal fusion, is barbaric. Patients end up worse, often far worse. Often, one surgery leads to the next. This is a major gateway to long-term opioid prescriptions, and then, addiction. They, the surgeons, are the cause of these drastic pain increases, and, therefore, they are the cause of the current widespread drug dependence." He emphasizes, "People in pain go to orthopedists for relief. Their patients end up worse, with untold damage to the nervous systems."

Dr. Harte explains. "Millions suffer from chronic neck and back pain, as well as pain of the hips, knees, shoulders and wrists. They go to the orthopedist for help. At best, nothing is accomplished, since, in Medicine, no one deals with causation. Only symptoms are dealt with."

He adds, "More commonly, suffering people end up with more suffering, and sicker, overall. More and more end up drug-addicted. But, then, Medicine has specialists for that, too. What a racket!"

People in pain ask Dr. Harte what they can do that is safer and more effective. "Straight chiropractic," he advises. "Not your typical pain-treating, white coat-wearing excuse-for-chiropractic care. Real chiropractors look for the cause, and then, seek to correct it, through gentle, specific, scientific chiropractic adjustments. Not only does pain typically lessen or disappear, but a person's body becomes free to function at a higher level. Overall health improves, because the nervous system is free from interference."

Dr. Harte explains that people have a choice. "You can go for 'what's accepted,' get doped up and cut up, and maybe addicted. Or, you can correct the cause, giving your body a chance, not only for pain relief, but to be well."
