About

Josh Bloom is researcher, journalist, scientist and President of the American Council on Science and Health, which describes itself as a pro-science consumer advocacy group that goes after what they think is bad science. Josh and I don’t agree on many issues but we do agree that the government’s response to the so-called opioid crisis has left millions of people in chronic pain suffering unnecessarily.  Josh has done a lot of great work debunking the CDC’s numbers relating to the opioid crisis and exposing how as more draconian measures are instituted to restrict access to pain medicines - more people in pain are suffering and more people are dying of overdose. We talk about the real cause of the opioid crisis and how those in power and those who seek to benefit from that power have manipulated the data to present a false narrative to the American people.  This is very emotional issue for me since I’ve been in chronic pain for over thirty years and have seen first hand how people in pain are  treated in the current environment of opioid hysteria. I exercise my health freedom by taking Kratom for my chronic pain. Kratom isn’t for everyone and I recommend everyone do their own research to see if its right them. Thats exactly what I did and I found it extremely helpful for helping improve my over well being and help with the pain. The only Kratom I trust is from Urban Ice Organics which you can find at: https://naturalorganix.com Use the promo code “ChronciallyHuman20 with no spaces - to get 20% off your next order.  Urban Ice Organics now offers a great Full Spectrum CBD oil as well.

This is the analogy that I wanted to make when Josh was talking about Fentanyl being a unique event in American history. In reality Prohibition creates predictable and negative results. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iron_law_of_prohibition  I don’t agree with Josh on many topics but we do agree on how it's truly  terrible how those in pain are being treated today and its our own government wh
