Former pharmaceutical chemist sounding the alarm against prescription medications


Meet Shane Ellison who says Big Pharma is all about the money

I’m sure most people who get into the pharmaceutical industry have good intentions to make the world a better place with the work they are doing. And I don’t think everyone involved in making prescription drugs is sinister by nature. But an obvious culture of corruption focused on the billions upon billions of dollars that are pouring in to the coffers of these companies thanks to perpetuating the health myths and slick marketing cannot be ignored. Today’s podcast interview guest used to work as a chemist at a major pharmaceutical company and now is fighting for people to educate themselves better about natural ways to improve their health.

In Episode 312 of “The Livin’ La Vida Low-Carb Show with Jimmy Moore,” we hear from Shane Ellison, aka “The People’s Chemist,” the author of Over the Counter Natural Cures: Take Charge of Your Health in 30 Days with 10 Lifesaving Supplements for under $10 who is extremely passionate about talking about healthy living without the need for those risky prescription drugs. This man is on a mission to share the truth with the whole world as evidenced in this brief video:

Listen to this interview to hear Shane Ellison talk about why he got into the pharmaceutical industry, what led him to leave the drug company he was working for, how a “farmer’s diet” helped him lose weight, why three meals of high healthy fats can best control insulin, the impact of a high-fat diet on children, the glorification of low-fat foods and why sugar is given a free pass, why YouTube is a great way to get the message out, why people still believe in the cholesterol myth, the shift that is happening with statin drugs treating inflammation rather than cholesterol, how just $10 a month can greatly improve your health, and why genetics don’t matter as much as your habits. Shane loves putting the information out there and letting you decide whether to believe it or not. ENJOY!

    Having met with my doctor this morning, I'm just so thankful that he's not a "drug happy doc." More fish oil and more exercise -- that was his prescription.
