Approximately 19 million Americans are diagnosed with depression every year, upping their suicide risk and leaving them vulnerable to related disorders and illnesses. When it comes to mild to moderate depression the risks of conventional antidepressants often don’t offset the benefits, and it may be wiser to seek alternative therapies, such as herbal stimulants, which don’t exhibit such significant side effects. One all-star treatment for depression is roseroot extract, with 3000 years of experience as a European folk medicine used to enhance performance, longevity, energy, and immunity.
Scientists Discover Roseroot Extract Is Nearly As Effective As Prescription Antidepressants
Roseroot extract (Rhodiola rosea) has been shown in several studies to improve depression by stimulating the receptors of neurotransmitters that help control mood, such as dopamine and serotonin. Other studies reveal that it impacts beta-endorphin levels, which help reduce feelings of stress and anxiety.
Dr. Jun J. Mao, associate professor of family medicine, community health and epidemiology at Perelman School of Medicine at the University of Pennsylvania, expanded on this research with the first ever randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial that compared the effects of roseroot extract to the effects of the prescribed antidepressant drug sertraline on mild to moderate depression. The smallscale study—published in the journal Phytomedicine—consisted of 57 adults who exhibited two or more depressive episodes, depressed mood or loss of interest in activities for at least two weeks, and depressive symptoms, such as unexplained weight change, fatigue, and suicidal ideations.
Patients were given standardized roseroot extract, sertraline, or a placebo for 12 weeks, their moods regulated throughout. At the end of the 12 weeks patients reported:
1.9 times the odds of improvement when taking sertraline
1.4 times the odds of improvement when taking roseroot extract
Scientists reported no statistical difference between the two. Furthermore, 63% of patients taking sertraline reported side effects, compared to 30% of patients taking roseroot extract.
“[Roseroot] may be better tolerated than sertraline, which suggests its potential as a treatment alternative for patients who are intolerant to the adverse effects of conventional antidepressants,” the authors conclude.
Experts note that roseroot extract side effects are those typically associated with mild stimulants, such as jitteriness, dry mouth, and dizziness. Do not take roseroot if you are pregnant or breastfeeding.

Neurosurgeon: Chemtrails Cause Alzheimer’s, Dementia, Parkinson’s, and ALS
Chemtrails. When you hear the word you might instantly correlate it with ‘conspiracy theory,’ but this couldn’t be further from the truth. Just because a neurosurgeon speaks out about them does not constitute it as truth. We don’t base our evidence of somebody observing lines in the sky and instantly deeming them as harmful chemicals designed to increase the rate of human ailments as proof. Although there is much merit in observing a phenomenon and listening to your inner voice/intuition to see if something doesn’t seem right, there is also merit when it comes to factual evidence regarding the chemtrail phenomenon and that is why more people within the mainstream world are choosing to speak out. It’s clear that chemtrails are very different from contrails.

Compulsory Vaccination Debate
Peggy posted:
Dear everyone, imagine for a second you disagreed with the government about something. Let’s say, for example, microchipping your child. (Some parents in the US have had this done voluntarily.) Imagine you choose not to do this despite the media running many many articles highlighting the dangers of having your child left au naturale instead of being microchipped. No-one makes a big deal about it, you have to sign something at the police station to say you’ve been warned of the dangers before school or kinder will take responsibility for them. Then one day the government says they’ll remove support payments for unchipped children. Then your field of work becomes obsolete and you fall on hard times. You are then faced with a choice: starve or have your child microchipped. Is this really the kind of society you want to live in? If not, maybe put your opinions re vaccination aside for a minute and let the government know that linking vaccination status with social security is crossing a line that should not be crossed. Basic human rights are not just for the wealthy.
I replied: GREAT post Peggy! You hit the nail on the head. Whether or not we wish to vaccinate our children should be the right of every parent, not just the wealthy.
This was a pro-vaccination image I saw this evening:
I replied in part:
The smart ones do. Those who don’t listen to the puppet masters and do their own homework quickly learn that you don’t need to go far before the vaccination lie quickly unravels.
0. Vaccines are neither safe nor effective. This is according to the US Government and the drug companies themselves, let alone the whistle blowers.
1. The CDC (Center for Disease Control) have paid out of two BILLION dollars in compensation to people whose children have been provably harmed by vaccinations. (And you can just imagine how easily that money would be paid out! Your case would have to be water tight!)
2. The recent whooping cough outbreak in Park City Utah was only amongst vaccinated childre. in http://www.globalresearch.ca/utah-whooping-cough-outbreak-pertussis-only-in-vaccinated-children/5441385
3. I was one of a generation of people deliberately infected with cancer causing virus in a “vaccine”. http://yournewswire.com/expert-admits-cancer-causing-virus-added-to-vaccines/ You’d need your head read if you think I will allow my kids or grand kids to be vaccinated.
4. The Vaccinated Spreading Measles: WHO, Merck, CDC Documents Confirm – http://www.greenmedinfo.com/blog/vaccinated-spreading-measles-who-merck-cdc-documents-confirms
5. Two virologists have filed a federal lawsuit against Merck, their former employer, alleging the vaccine maker overstated the effectiveness of their mumps vaccine, which may have cost the US government hundreds of millions of dollars over the past decade. They claim they “witnessed firsthand the improper testing and data falsification in which Merck engaged to artificially inflate the vaccine’s efficacy findings” http://articles.mercola.com/sites/articles/archive/2012/07/10/merck-lying-about-vaccine-effectiveness.aspx
6. A recent review of the varicella (chickenpox) vaccination program in the U.S. concluded that the vaccine has not proven to be cost-effective; increased the incidence of shingles; failed to provide long-term protection from the disease it targets-chicken pox-and; is less effective than the natural immunity that existed in the general population before the vaccine. Vaccine efficacy was found to have declined well below 80 percent by end of 2002.
7. and last but by no means least was Archie Kalikerinos, the Australian doctor with the Greek background who, when one in two aboriginal children were dying after being vaccinated, stood up to the might of the Medico-Pharma cartel and reduced Aboriginal infant mortality to zero using natural immune boosting vitamin C and other techniques. http://www.smh.com.au/comment/obituaries/doctor-prevented-infant-mortality-20120316-1vaj6.html
More and more Australians are doing their own research on the risks and benefits and concluding it as safer to not vaccinate their children.
So the Australian Government have reacted against this by threatening to withdraw financial benefits unless the child is up-to-date with their scheduled vaccinations.
I think this is an unconscionable attempt to suppress the free will of the Australian parents to decide what is best for their children.
Even if I did believe in vaccinations I would not attempt to force my personal beliefs on every other Australian.
Stay tuned for further posts on this issue.
