Pharmaceutical Companies Create Counterfeit Hormones

      Now the pharmaceutical companies discovered that they can't make any money with progesterone because being a natural compound it can't be patented. So if you can't patent something you're not going to spend money doing research to show how wonderful it is, and in fact if you try to sell it for any profit someone will come in and undersell you. But Dr Marker discovered that in one acre of Mexican wild yams he could get enough progesterone to meet the worlds supply for a whole year. The price dropped from $35,000 per ounce down to $7 an ounce. So it was a very important discovery and it is real stuff and this is where all our hormones come from. From progesterone they can make all the cortisone's, they can make all the estrogens they can make all the testosterone's, they can even make digitalis out of it. And they discovered that if they modified the progesterone molecule into something that wasn't the same as human or wasn't found anywhere in nature, it was totally synthetic , that is man made and not found in nature, then they could put a patent on it, they could make money on it. And that's where the hormones come from that they sell to the doctors to sell to you. They all come from the plant to progesterone and then to the artificial drug.

     The companies have these huge farms growing the wild yam in Mexico and they make this progesterone, then they deliberately alter it into Provera and Megastrol. Now it no longer has the full range of activity. Plus it's loaded with toxic side effects. That's what they're selling people.

Note: It has been pointed out that Medroxyprogesterone Acetate (Provera) has been off patent for several years. Drug companies and doctors however continue to use this unnatural substance as if it were the real hormone. Others have said in essence that women are too dumb to use a progesterone cream consistently and therefor the synthetic pill form is what they need. See the page on Provera for more information.
