A Response to the March 15 letter to the Reader entitled Taking Gary Kohls to Task

Thu. Mar. 22nd, 2012 | Gary G. Kohls, MD

I welcomed the challenges in last weeks Reader letter from Doctors DAllaird, Doane, Duus, Heck, Jagim and Saracino to my occasional Duty to Warn columns that have mentioned unwelcome information about the dangers of the seriously over-prescribed and proven to be neurotoxic synthetic chemicals known as psychotropic drugs. Most of the Duty to Warn columns also contained information abou

Thu. Apr. 5th, 2012 | Gary G. Kohls, MD

A recent study published in the Public Library of Science online journal (PloS One @ www.plosone.org) by the Institute for Safe Medication Practices (ISMP @ www.ismp.org) listed the top 31 prescription drugs that can cause violent or aggressive behavior in those consuming them.

Americas Mental Illness Disability and Dementia Epidemic: It Turns Out That the Drugs Are the Problem

Thu. Apr. 12th, 2012 | Gary G. Kohls, MD

Since the introduction of major tranquilizers like Thorazine and Haldol, minor tranquilizers like Miltown, Librium and Valium, and the dozens of so-called antidepressants like Prozac, Zoloft and Paxil, tens of millions of unsuspecting Americans have become mired deeply, to the point of permanent disability, in the American mental health system. Many of these innocents have actually been made crazy and often disabled by the use ofor the withdrawal fromthese commonly prescribed, brain-altering, and, for many, brain-damaging psychiatric drugs that hav

De-Mystifying Drug Addiction

Thu. Apr. 19th, 2012 | Gary G. Kohls, MD

People who are addicted to nicotine, alcohol, street drugs, or psych drugs, or simply have addictive potential, may be lacking certain nutrients that the brain requires to manufacture the natural brain chemicals that are called neurotransmitters. The major neurotransmitters that affe

Then They Came for the Children An Analysis of the Official Cover-up of the Unwelcome Truths About the Canadian Genocide of Aboriginal Children

Thu. Apr. 26th, 2012 | Gary G. Kohls, MD

By Guest Columnist Bill Annett From a recent edition of The Canadian Shield (Volume 3, Issue 3, titled The Truth That Failed) Weve just spent half a day (perhaps too much) reading a 115-page tome, neither scholarly nor journalistic mais tous les deux, titled They Came For The Children. Its the interim report of the Truth and Reconciliation Commission, that icon and crowning triumph of the conservative Stephen Harpers Canadian majority government.

What Did You Do In The War, Daddy?

Fri. May. 4th, 2012 | Gary G. Kohls, MD

What Did You Do in the War, Daddy? was the title of a wonderful book written by Sabine Reichel. Reichel was born in devastated Hamburg in 1946 to Nazi-collaborator parents who were respected in their post-war community but had never talked to her about what they had done during the war years. The truth only came out during Reichels young adult years.

Fri. May. 11th, 2012 | Gary G. Kohls, MD

For the last decade of my 40-year career as a family physician, I practiced what was best termed holistic mental health care (i.e., using non-drug approaches, gradual psych drug withdrawal, nutritional therapy for the brain, and psychoeducational psychotherapy to achieve mental wellness).

Has There Been a Fascist Coup in This Country?

Fri. May. 18th, 2012 | Gary G. Kohls, MD

Many of us who are anti-imperialists and therefore also antifascists will sadly recall that following the stolen presidential election of 2004, John Kerry inexplicably and far too readily conceded defeat, despite the evidence that the infamous Diebold voting machine fraud had given the Cheney/Rumsfeld/Rove/Bush administration control of the White House for another four years. Following the 2004 electoral coup (see the powerful documentary about the election fraud of 2000, entitled Unprecedented: The Battle for the Presidency in Florida and the Undermining of Democracy in America), a politically savvy and historically knowledgeable acquaintance of mine from the East Coast (who happens to be Jewish) wrote an important essay that I attach below.

Winter Soldiers, the Real American Heroes, Speaking Unwelcome Truth to NATO Power

Thu. May. 24th, 2012 | Gary G. Kohls, MD

These are the times that try mens souls. The summertime soldier and the sunshine patriot will in this crisis, shrink from the service of his country; but he that stands it now, deserves the love and thanks of man and woman. Thomas Paine
