[MPWG] Why do we spend etc

[Bob Beyfuss]

With hundreds of thousands of adverse reactions to prescription and over 
the counter drugs each year including thousands of deaths 
(acetaminophen, aka Tylenol, among other brand names, alone is 
responsible for more then 400 deaths each year)  is it any wonder 
Americans are looking for alternatives? Read the label of almost any 
prescription drug or even just watch the TV commercials that list common 
"side effects" some of which  include death and you might wonder why 
more people are NOT looking at alternatives, particularly herbs with 
long history of folk use.
