Natural Health Guru Predicts Flood of Hate Mail Following Release of

New Online Video Parody Thu Mar 23, 7:00 AM ET

(PRWEB) - (PRWEB) March 23, 2006 -- Although a free animated video

parody called The Town of Allopath was just released online by

popular health and wellness website Mercola.com, the video is

already building viral steam (and major controversy) across the

Internet.

The entertaining 7-minute video animation creatively parodies

everyone involved in the existing health care system — the greedy

pharmaceutical industry, the self-interested medical profession, the

inept FDA, a general public ignorantly aiding in their own downfall,

and even the so-called " crackpots " and " quacks " who are ridiculed

for sounding the alarm.

Dr. ph Mercola, founder of Mercola.com, expects to be inundated

with hate mail from those who have a vested interest in maintaining

the medical " status quo. " He admits to a thick skin, however,

stating: " I'm willing to risk criticism for the chance to inspire

people to examine their own beliefs about the existing medical

paradigm, which is riddled with flaws that are dangerous to both

their own health and the nation's financial future. "

Dr. Mercola predicts that health-conscious viewers will quickly be

attracted to The Town of Allopath's simple and colorful message.

At the same time, he hopes that the video will illustrate the need

for everyone to " take off their blinders and wake up " to the very

real issues of political favors, scientific bias, widespread greed,

shady deals, and self-imposed ignorance — issues he believes are

rampant in health care today.

When asked why Mercola.com would invest the time and resources to

create and produce this professional video, Dr. Mercola, founder of

Mercola.com, explained:

" It's very simple. Once people see for themselves what this video

reveals, they're going to tell all their friends and loved ones

about it. We get to demonstrate the flawed logic behind our current

healthcare system in an entertaining yet provocative manner that

will prompt people to share it with others. That fits in perfectly

with the mission of Mercola.com "
