CITIZENS FOR HEALTH AND THE GREAT BOYCOTT: Action meeting June 14: NAS Study on Risks and Benefits of Genetically Engineered (GE) Crops: Thank you for signing letters to the National Academy of Sciences. Will the NAS conduct its study with a majority of the panel taking money from biotech industries? Hear an update at the June 14 meeting, and pick up appropriate form letters citing research findings NAS should consider. Profits, Pill Pushers, and the Drugging of Children: The companies that push GE foods profit from pushing psychoactive drugs for children. CibaGeigy, now Novartis, a major producer of GE seeds, also manufactures Ritalin, and is a major funder of CHADD, the ADD "support" group credited with the explosion of ADD diagnoses. With encouragement from CHADD, the number of children taking Ritalin has more than quadrupled since 1988! A nightmare litany of adverse effects includes paranoid psychosis, manic aggressiveness, hallucinations, and convulsions. Multinational giants also manufacture antidepressants, widely used on children despite studies indicating they are ineffective for pediatric depression. Learn many chilling, little-known facts about these drugs in a well researched position paper by Jon Rappoport: Why Did They Do It? An Inquiry into School Shootings in America. Jon links school violence to psychoactive drugs, offering details about murders committed by kids taking antidepressants, and comments such as these from psychiatrists: "Contrary to Lilly's view, there is a plausible cause-and-effect relationship between Prozac' and suicidal-homicidal events." "With Luvox there is some evidence of a four-percent rate for mania in adolescents. Mania... could be a component in grandiose plans to destroy large numbers of other people." "All the SSRIs [including Prozac and Luvox] relieve the patient of feeling. He becomes less empathic, as in `I don't care as much,' which means `It's easier for me to harm you.' .�that could push him over the edge into violent behavior." And this from the Wall Street Journal: "A spate of murder trials in which defendants claim they became violent when they took the antidepressant Prozac are imposing new problems for the drug's maker, Eli Lilly and Co." Hear about these issues and receive a copy of Rappoport's paper at the meeting.

Say it twice, and slowly.
