Beyond Monsanto’s 90-Day Roundup Study.

Posted on September 20, 2017 by Dr. Gary Pack

No governmental agencies require either long-term studies of the active ingredient (such as glyphosate or G) in herbicides used on genetically-modified (GM) crops. Neither do they regulate short term studies of the entire ingredients of such products as Roundup (R, which contains G and other chemicals). The products are not studied as they are sold […]

Uranium and Kidney Toxicity.

Posted on February 17, 2017 by Dr. Gary Pack

Exposure to excessive uranium (U) in humans and animals is believed to damage their kidneys. This review article studies previous research data to evaluate the danger of kidney disease (nephrotoxicity) after exposure to U in humans. Without knowing exactly how it happens, evidence at this time is that U can cause kidney damage. U is […]

Uranium as an Endocrine Disrupter.

Posted on February 10, 2017 by Dr. Gary Pack

From the early 1950s until a market collapse in 1971, Uranium (U) mining was an active business in Southwestern U.S. Mining has been concentrated in the Four Corners region and the Navajo reservation. To this day, abandoned mines are heavy polluters and “10,000 gallons of U-contaminated water seeps into the Colorado (River) daily”. Of the […]

Debate on GMOs Health Risks.

Posted on July 5, 2015 by Dr. Gary Pack

The debate over safety of genetically modified (GM) foods continues after 20 years. No human or animal epidemiologic studies have shown the safety of genetically modified organisms (GMOs). Most GMOs are grown in North and South America, where they are not even labeled. Most GMOs are resistant to Roundup herbicide and contain residues of insecticides, […]

Antimicrobial Resistance.

Posted on May 7, 2015 by Dr. Gary Pack

The most potent antibiotics that we have today are carbapenems. An enzyme called NMDI in bacteria allows these to be resistant to that class of antibiotics, and 1/10th of them are resistant to all antibiotics (pan-resistance). At this time, there is no evidence for development of new antimicrobials. Cases of NMDI resistance have been found […]

Kidney Failure in a Weight Lifter on Creatine.

Posted on November 24, 2014 by Dr. Gary Pack

The authors report the case of a 24-year-old weight lifter who developed acute kidney failure while taking multiple supplements, including creatine monohydrate. His symptoms were abdominal pain, extreme thirst and a high output of urine, with a large amount of protein in his urine. A kidney biopsy showed “acute interstitial nephritis” (kidney inflammation). He recovered […]

GMOs Health Risks.

Posted on February 3, 2011 by Dr. Gary Pack

The authors review the current debate on genetically modified products (GMOs) and the health risks of eating GMO products and using them for animal feed. Currently, there are no epidemiologic studies to show that these products are safe. Studies cannot be done because of the lack of labeling in North and South America where 97% […]
