WHY ANTIDEPRESSANTS CAUSE BRAIN DAMAGE, BREAST CANCER AND EARLY MORTALITY
When you see a headline like this in the news, "Anti-inflammatory Drugs Reduce the Effectiveness of SSRI Antidepressants,” what does it make you think? The impression given is that if you are taking an SSRI then you shouldn’t take any pain pills if you want the antidepressants to work – which is the clear message of the press release that accompanied the study. If you are developing "health brains” on your shoulders then you would realize that SSRI antidepressants must be "working” by some type of inflammatory method. It is now common knowledge that low-grade excess inflammation is behind virtually every disease of aging. The obvious contradictions don’t add up to health. Pulling strings further, as I explain in this article, leads to an understanding as to why antidepressants are associated with an increased risk of breast cancer, brain damage over time, and a significantly increased risk of early mortality – information the pill pushers at Big Pharma would prefer you never understood. ...[full story]
