Description

This is a two-part book. First, Karl Erik Tallmo tells his story of a decade of illness with fibromyalgia, probably caused by mercury poisoning from dental amalgam. The other part of the book deals with the fact that several doctors regard illnesses they can't understand as psychosomatic, illnesses such as chronic fatigue syndrome. Scientific research regarding the hazards of, for instance, tobacco, toxic chemicals, dental amalgam or mobile phones has been and is being manipulated, attacked or concealed, often with the help of scientists who secretly work as consultants for the very industry branch that has a direct interest in a certain result of their research. An essential question here is whether newspapers should report new research findings about possible health risks, even if the so-called scientific community has not yet reached consensus about it. This e-book is a translation into English of a printed book, originally in Swedish.
