	PhysicianScam.com \| Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine
		The Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine is a wolf in sheep's clothing.
		PCRM is a fanatical animal rights group that seeks to remove eggs, milk, meat and seafood from the American diet, and to eliminate the use of animals in scientific research.
		In a surprising announcement today,* the Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine (PCRM) committed 100 percent of its $9 million budget to medical-school tuition grants for its non-physician members.

		PCRM also argues that consuming dairy products is unhealthful and advocates for improving the food served in school lunchrooms.
		PCRM and PETA would appear to be independent organizations, PETA being based in Norfolk, Va., and PCRM in Washington, D.C. However, there exists a third organization called Foundation to Support Animal Protection housed out of the same address as PETA.

		In June 1990, the AMA formally requested PCRM to terminate the inappropriate and unethical tactics used to manipulate public opinion against the use of animals in biomedical research.
		On September 29, 1992, PCRM called a press conference and announced that milk was bad for babies because of its low iron content, possible allergic reactions to its protein, possible traces of antibiotics, digestive problems (lactose intolerance), and a possible link to juvenile diabetes.
		When the surgeon argued that pigs were killed daily for meat, including their livers, the PCRM doctor retorted that it was the eating of saturated animal fat that was responsible for most deaths in modern society.

	AR.net >> Discussion Forum >> Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine mobilizes against March of Dimes
		Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine could not pass up this opportunity and is seeking activists to leaflet at upcoming Walk America events to "shine a spotlight on the dark side of the March of Dimes" (has Neal Barnard seen Star Wars once too often?)
		According to PCRM, not only has March of Dimes-funded research produced no progress in preventing birth defects, but in fact the charity has intentionally ignored the best solutions to solving birth defects (which, of course, do not require using animals).
		This is just the sort of ridiculous distortion that led the American Medical Association to condemn PCRM in 1991 for "misrepresenting the critical role animals play in research." Apparently Barnard and company still haven't figured it out.

		The name of the group implies that its membership is made up primarily, if not totally, of physicians, and that therefore its pronouncements on health, science, and nutrition topics should be considered to have a special imprimatur.
		One such resolution stated in part, "Our AMA registers strong objections to the Physicians' Committee for Responsible Medicine for...misrepresenting the critical role animals play in research and teaching..." (www.ama-assn.org).
		Predictably, the PCRM report attributes the greater success of those on the vegan diet to the lack of animal products, but a really valid comparison would be between the two diets at the same level of calorie intake.
