Dear Friend,

72 years ago, the world's first "miracle drug" came to market.

It could cure severe and potentially fatal diseases.

Diseases like strep throat, pneumonia, and staph infection.

For the first time, we didn't have to worry about dying from minor infections.

It was the single greatest medical discovery in modern history.

A landmark event that not only kicked off modern medicine as we know it...

But single-handedly...

  • Expanded human life expectancy by as much as 27 years.
  • Allowed us to live normal lives, with no worry of common infections, minor scrapes or cuts, and even some deadly infectious diseases.
  • And even helped the Allies win the war against Nazi Germany.

Odds are, your parents or grandparents owe their lives to this "Wonder Drug."

One medical historian even calls it a "turning point in human history."

Of course, I'm talking about penicillin – indisputably the most important medical innovation of the 20th century.

But there was one big problem with this monumental discovery.

It accidentally spun off a handful of all-powerful pharmaceutical companies.

A dangerous cartel we know today as "Big Pharma."

This small group of firms piggy-backed on the original invention of penicillin – without funding the research. They altered and patented various strains. And using clever marketing, they grabbed $1.2 trillion out of your pocket – without curing anything.

And the consequences for our health have been nothing short of disastrous.

Right now, instead of finding cures or preventions, Big Pharma develops drugs to profitably manage the symptoms of disease.

In other words, it's NOT in their financial interest to find real cures. Natural cures they can't patent. Cures that would cut off their profits.
