"As the leviathan becomes more bloated it has to feed on whales and it ignores the minnows, and there are far fewer whales." There was an even deeper flaw in the industry's strategy of aggressively marketing medicines. It was killing thousands of people as doctors prescribed new drugs on the advice of the corporate marketers before all the risks were known." - Melody Petersen, Our Daily Meds: How the Pharmaceutical Companies Transformed Themselves into Slick Marketing Machines and Hooked the Nation on Prescription Drugs (Get the book.)

"The whole place, enormous in extent, was filled with sleeping giants and monsters of sea and land—great whales, long slippery eels, bears, and beasts of every form and kind. The prince passed through them and over them till he came to a great stairway. At the head of the stairway he went into a chamber, where he found the most beautiful woman he had ever seen, stretched on a couch asleep. 'I'll have nothing to say to you,' thought he, and went on to the next; and so he looked into twelve chambers. In each was a woman more beautiful than the one before." - Joseph Campbell, The Hero with a Thousand Faces Joseph Campbell (Get the book.)

"But aren't there "WHALES" in this school offish? That is to say, who are the key-opinion leaders in the group of doctors? Right, the medical professors with high reputation and first-rank researchers are the key OLs. So, imagine, when a new medication comes out, he wins over a key opinion leader. What then? Well, he has WON. It is like winning in lotto, $1 million or in case of the pharmaceutical drug cartel, $1 billion." - Kenneth W Thomas, Ron Gilbert, Gerd Schaller, Side Effects: The Hidden Agenda of the Pharmaceutical Drug Cartel (Get the book.)

"Many species of whales eat them, develop great strength and endurance, and live to between 80 and 150 years. The largest is the whale shark, which lives to more than 150 years and is sexually active until it dies.4 Phytoplankton are responsible for the production of a major portion of the earth's oxygen as well as the regulation of our atmosphere. Through photosynthesis, phytoplankton utilize chlorophyll and light to release oxygen into water and, in the process, convert huge quantities of carbon dioxide into living matter." - Ron Garner, Conscious Health: A Complete Guide to Wellness Through Natural Means (Get the book.) "Even in the supposedly clean environment of Greenland, one in six Greenlanders now have potentially harmful blood levels of mercury from eating contaminated fish and whales.3 What makes mercury so devastating to our health is its ability to travel to all parts of the body, causing dysfunction, degeneration, and destruction of cells. Our immune systems weaken until we gradually slow down and then begin to age rapidly. Mercury Poisoning From Dental Amalgams Silver amalgams, used to fill cavities in teeth, are mixtures of mercury, silver, copper, tin, and in some cases, zinc." - Ron Garner, Conscious Health: A Complete Guide to Wellness Through Natural Means (Get the book.)

"But human beings are, as far as we know (we have not yet broken the communication barrier with dolphins and whales), the only creatures who are conscious that they are conscious. We can observe our thoughts and reflect upon our inner processes. We know that we know. We have a sense of self. This has opened us up to what may be the most profound questions of all: "Who am I?" "What is consciousness?" Hands - Levers for the Mind All tools and engines on earth are only extensions of man's limbs and senses." - Peter Russell, Waking Up In Time: Finding Inner Peace In Times of Accelerating Change (Get the book.) "The brains of humans (and of whales and dolphins) are, with no exaggeration, the most complex structures in the known Universe —many times more complex than the largest computers such brains have yet designed. This explosive development of the brain, occurring in just a few hundred thousand years, is one of the most dramatic and rapid changes in the whole of biological evolution. And on it rests the whole future of evolution. For through the human brain have come new creative potentials, new arenas for growth and development, and another leap in the speed of evolution. Language ?" - Peter Russell, Waking Up In Time: Finding Inner Peace In Times of Accelerating Change (Get the book.)

"This is especially important in fish, which consume significant amounts of algae and seaweed or krill, those almost microscopic sea creatures that are the favorite food of whales. Sardines, anchovies, and other small fish consume sea plants, which are rich in omega-3 oils, concentrating them in their fat stores. When we have a sardine sandwich or anchovies in Caesar salad, the omega-3 oils get passed along. Likewise, when larger fish, such as wild salmon, eat algae or krill, the omega-3S concentrate in their fat." - Dr. Steven R. Gundry, Dr. Gundry's Diet Evolution: Turn Off the Genes That Are Killing You - And Your Waistline - And Drop the Weight for Good (Get the book.)

"CMO is an all-natural oil found in certain animals like cows, whales, mice, and beavers. Harry W. Diehl, Ph.D., a researcher at the National Institutes of Health, first discovered it in 1972. It has been used in a lot of arthritis research over the last 25 years. It works by inhibiting the production of certain inflammatory compounds in the body. Studies have shown that the effectiveness of CMO is actually superior to over-the-counter prescriptions such as nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs." - Jonny Bowden, Ph.D., C.N.S., The Most Effective Natural Cures on Earth: The Surprising, Unbiased Truth about What Treatments Work and Why (Get the book.) "Krill are little crustaceans that look like shrimp and provide food for everything from salmon to blue whales. And they're one of the most nutritious creatures in the sea. Not only are they loaded with the aforementioned astaxanthin, but they're a great source of valuable omega-3 fatty acids. Krill oil is increasingly being researched for its health benefits (see below), and one of the nicest of those benefits is the effect krill oil has on premenstrual syndrome (PMS)." - Jonny Bowden, Ph.D., C.N.S., The Most Effective Natural Cures on Earth: The Surprising, Unbiased Truth about What Treatments Work and Why (Get the book.)

"An apparent paradox is the fact that although the native Inuit people get an enormous amount of fat in their diet from fish, whales, and seals, they do not suffer a correspondingly high rate of heart attacks. At least part of the reason for this phenomenon is that they consume high levels of omega-3 fatty acids, which reduce the blood's tendency to coagulate and form clots while simultaneously optimizing blood cholesterol and lipid levels, all important benefits in the context of diabetes." - Steven V. Joyal, What Your Doctor May Not Tell You About Diabetes: An Innovative Program to Prevent, Treat, and Beat This Controllable Disease (Get the book.)

"This rules out the use of any materials from horses, ponies, whales and other sea mammals, kangaroos and many other species. The per food industry only uses materials of beef, lamb, poultry and pork origin, fish, shellfish, rabbit and game."10 The literature further states that PFMA members use only materials derived from animals who have been inspected and passed as fit for human consumption. Most of the material derived from these animals would be listed on the labels as meat by-products." - Ann N. Martin, Food Pets Die For: Shocking Facts About Pet Food (Get the book.)

"Cetyl myristoleate is found in certain animals, including cows, whales, beavers, and mice. As a nuttitional supplement it is found in a highly purified, refined form in capsules and tablets. CMO is also available in creams and lotions for topical application. CMO has been used in connection with the following conditions (refer to the individual health concern for complete information): Rating Health Concerns Osteoarthritis (page 328) Rheumatoid arthritis (page 387) Who is likely to be deficient? As cetyl myristoleate is not an essential nutrient, no deficiency state exists." - Alan R. Gaby, M.D., Jonathan V. Wright, M.D., Forrest Batz, Pharm.D. Rick Chester, RPh., N.D., DipLAc.

"Darwinists assume that the relationship between, say, bats and whales is similar to that between siblings and cousins in human families. Possibly it is, the proposition is not self-evident...we observe directly that apples fall when dropped, but we do not observe a common ancestor for modern apes and humans. What we do observe is that apes and humans are physically and biochemically more like each other than they are like rabbits, snakes or trees. the ape-like common ancestor is a hypothesis in a theory, which purports to explain how these greater and lesser similarities came about." - David Wolfe, The Sunfood Diet Success System (Get the book.)

"For example, in the Southern Oceans, tiny snails called pteropods (the name means 'wing-footed'; they use modified feet to swim through the water) are as important in some areas as krill as a basis of the food chain - they may reach densities of thousands of individuals per cubic metre of seawater, and animals from mackerel to baleen whales scoop them up by the tonne. Yet by the second half of the twenty-first century, their shells will be dissolving in the seawater around them." - Mark Lynas, Six Degrees: Our Future on a Hotter Planet (Get the book.)

"Using what was essentially Pringle's approach, Dan McShea, a palaeontologist at the University of Michigan, examined the spinal vertebrae of extinct and extant mammals, comprising squirrels, ruminants, camels, whales and scaly anteaters. On the basis of six indicators of complexity, McShea was unable to find any systematic correlation between elapsed time and complexity. As he put it: 'The data showed no significant increase or decrease in complexity in most cases." - Michael Lockwood, The Labyrinth of Time: Introducing the Universe (Get the book.)

"Fish has to be rich in nutrients otherwise we wouldn't have whales, dolphins and bears, or any life at all on this planet. This doesn't mean, though, that everything nutritious that exists in nature should also appear on our dinner plate. As previously explained, once a fish or an animal has been killed, the oxygen supply to the cells is cut off. This immediately starts the process of cell-destruction through intracellular enzymes. Unless you eat the fish or chicken right away after it dies, and yes, raw, most of what you will get is degenerated and putrefied protein." - Andreas Moritz, Timeless Secrets of Health & Rejuvenation: Unleash The Natural Healing Power That Lies Dormant Within You (Get the book.)

"Killer whales and big sharks lived in these waters, along with the vaunted Sockeye and Chinook, and here I was freezing, and wondering how I was going to get these boots off, if and when I was going to go over into the soup, and it was cold and filled with strange soft things. My sailing lessons from my father always included the use of life vests, and, in retrospect, I had to admit, I kind of liked that. But, somehow, I don't think the thought that a life vest might be nice had crossed anybody's mind around here in a long time, and I was not about to ask for one now." - David Steinman, Safe Trip to Eden: Ten Steps to Save Planet Earth from the Global Warming Meltdown (Get the book.)

"Twice a year, for several weeks, gray whales were passing by on their way between Alaska and Baja California, and, on rare occasions, the appearance of killer whales further enriched this already extraordinary zoological display. Big Sur was also an important stop on the route of another group of indefatigable migrants—the beautiful Monarch butterflies. The shadow side of this life in paradise was that it did not offer much opportunity to earn money." - Stanislav Grof, When the Impossible Happens: Adventures in Non-Ordinary Reality (Get the book.)

"Hermaphroditic polar bears and gender-confused Beluga whales are being found in the Arctic Ocean with levels of pollutants in their fat that would qualify them for burial in a toxic waste site. Children with autism or other brain defects, tumors or leukemia, and young men with testicular cancer, lower sperm count and testosterone are increasing everywhere. Fewer baby boys are being born in many industrial countries. Are these things coming to light only because some people are looking for problems?" - Devra Davis, The Secret History of the War on Cancer (Get the book.)

"They are everywhere and infect everything from bacteria to whales, and kill plants as well as people. No one has bulletproof immunity. For a flu pandemic to occur, at least three concurrent if not simultaneous events are necessary: (1) a new highly aggressive virus has to appear with the ability to infect humans; (2) a vulnerable population must be available without previous exposure and no immunity to the new virus; and (3) infection has to spread readily and rapidly from person to person." - J. E. Williams, Beating the Flu: The Natural Prescription for Surviving Pandemic Influenza and Bird Flu (Get the book.)

"Another documentary I saw told the story of Grey whales which, once again, spent part of the year in warm waters where they were safe, but had little food, and then headed north where there was food, but they weren't safe. Or at least the calves weren't. The programme showed how Killer whales pursued a Grey Whale calf for six hours as its mother, who was too big and powerful to be attacked, tried to provide protection. The killers sought to separate calf from mother and hold it under the water to drown." - David Icke, Icke David, Infinite Love Is the Only Truth: Everything Else Is Illusion (Get the book.)

"In Beluga Whaleslc 15 16 • These whales in the St. Lawrence River have been studied extensively. Those living in contaminated water were found to have a number of sexual and other serious medical problems. DDT, PCBs and mercury were found in their body fat. Some were hermaphrodites with both testis and ovaries. Some had stomach ulcers, cysts on their thyroids, bladder cancer and evidence of excessive infection. They were less able to reproduce. It was discovered that the affected whales had ingested chemically-contaminated fish." - Doris Rapp, Our Toxic World: A Wake Up Call (Get the book.)

"More than 650 gray whales have washed up sick or dead on the West Coast of the United States in the first five years of the decade; 75% of the kelp forests of Southern California have disappeared; 97% of the staghorn and elkhorn coral have died off the Florida coast since 1975; 14,000 seals, sea lions and dolphins arrived on the California shoreline sick or dead between 1995 and 2005; 200,000 of the 500,000 albatross born each year die within days, mostly from eating human trash; 150 oxygen depleted dead-zones have been identified in the oceans around the world." - Jackie Lapin, The Art of Conscious Creation: How You Can Transform the World (Get the book.) "Countries that have in the past used dolphins, porpoises and whales as a food sources, have terminated that practice. This restored ocean includes healthy coral beds and reefs, recovering beautifully from years of pollution and poisons. Newly revitalized kelp beds provide a vibrant habitat for fish. The water is filled with nutrients that feed and support sea life. There's been an increase of previously endangered fish ?tuna, cod, orange roughy, Chilean sea bass, among others ?that had seen their numbers decline." - Jackie Lapin, The Art of Conscious Creation: How You Can Transform the World (Get the book.)

"Large sea animals, such as sharks, swordfish, and large tuna have some of the highest mercury levels of any edible seafood—and the highest levels of all are found in whales. Canned tuna is taken from smaller species and has considerably less mercury than larger tuna. Periodically, high mercury levels are also found in various fresh water species. This is especially a problem where hydroelectric plants have stagnated the waters, and where mercurial fungicides drain into lakes and streams near farmland." - Russell L. Blaylock, M.D., Health and Nutrition Secrets (Get the book.)

"Water is now known to be an efficient conductor and amplifier of vibrational energy - whales for example make sounds heard by others, hundreds of miles away in the ocean. The late French medical researcher Dr. Jacques Benveniste has shown that water amplifies the effects of chemical reactions in the body. Eastern philosophies view the ventricles as transmitting chambers, a place where all the subtle energies from the brain and the cosmos are allowed to mix and mingle, to be amplified and balanced." - Robin, Dr. Kelly, The Human Antenna: Reading the Language of the Universe in the Songs of Our Cells (Get the book.)
