Cold War Posted June 14, 2018 Share Posted June 14, 2018 Americans are consuming mass amounts of negative garbage daily. No different than eating piles of junk food everyday and thinking it will have no effect on your health. Look how angry some on here are with people and events that have no bearing on their lives, whatsoever. Turn on computer this morning............ the vegetables I'm eating are killing me, Do I have this deadly disease, Trump is destroying the world, blah, blah! When I got my new phone, I deleted all those news apps I had. Depressing garbage. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Taking one medication usually results in taking more medications to counter the side effects of the original drug prescribed. Some of the side effects from these drugs are mind numbing. How bad does your acne or arthritis have to be where you would risk getting cancer? My Doctor wants me to take statins and blood pressure meds. After reading some of the side ,I decided not.
