Vaccines: A Toxic Shot Syndrome



Vaccines: A Toxic Shot Syndrome

Use your imagination and conjure up a vision of witches standing around a cauldron adding an eye of newt and a wing of bat to their potion. The green slime bubbles and churns as the soup is stirred. Add some snake blood and fingernail clippings from a troll. Though this vision can seem comical, it is not far removed from the creation of a vaccine. Though vaccines are worse; much worse. 

Vaccines contain highly toxic metals, cancer causing substances, poisonous chemicals that kill nerve tissue and damage organs, live and genetically modified viruses, animal viruses/foreign genetic material, bacteria, and toxoids. The day that science can convince me that formaldehyde, mercury, aluminum, aborted fetal tissue, phenoxyethanol/ethylene glycol, polysorbate 80, and whole proteins injected directly into the capillary beds (not to mention the many other ingredients in vaccines) are not toxic poisons that cause disease, then I will accept the premise that vaccines help promote health. I’m waiting. I’m still waiting. I’ll be here all day…Some call vaccines medicine. I call them poison. 

Formaldehyde is classified as a human carcinogen by the EPA. Inhaling formaldehyde causes eye, nose, and throat irritation, coughing, wheezing, chest pains, and bronchitis while ingestion formaldehyde results in corrosion of the gastrointestinal tract, inflammation and ulceration of the mouth, esophagus, and stomach. What do you suppose happens to internal body tissue when formaldehyde is injected into a capillary bed and given direct exposure to our blood stream?

Mercury causes demyelination of nerves and nerve death. Mad Hatter Disease and Alice in Wonderland’s Mad Hatter are products of brain damage due to mercury exposure. Check out this five minute video and see for yourself the grizzly effects that mercury has on the cells in a human brain: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GDnfeIwd0wI

Aluminum is a heavy metal with known neurotoxic effects. The American Academy of Pediatrics stated that aluminum interferes with a variety of cellular and metabolic processes in the nervous system and other tissues. Aluminum toxicity is known to cause encephalitis, bone disease and anemia. Aluminum in vaccines increases mercury’s toxicity.

Aluminum is used to force infant's and children's immature immune system to produce greater amounts of antibodies. There are many parts to our immune system and they need to work in synergy. When one part is overworked, imbalances take place in an otherwise balanced system. By stimulating humoral (blood related-antibody producing) immunity alone, synergy is thrown off balance. There are multiple articles in the medical literature demonstrating how chronic illnesses like allergies, asthma, eczema, lupus, inflammatory bowel disease, ADD/ADHD and autism all exhibit a skewed production and over-activity of the antibody producing arm of the immune system. This delicate but powerful immune system is then asked to work in unnatural and unfamiliar ways. Because of this simple physiological fact, vaccines have caused an alarming increase in auto immune disorders. The body's immune system has been usurped; overtaken by some alien instruction. God's infinite program has been contaminated by a human virus...literally. 

What does the FDA and AMA say about all this? Go ahead and stick it in your child. It’s good for them. Don't worry. We are scientists and medical doctors. We know better. No thank you. Not me. Not my children. Never. You can put lipstick on a pig but it's still a pig. You can call vaccines medicine but they are still poisons. And poisons will never ever help to supplement the immune system. Period!

An Apple a Day Keeps the Doctor Away. Really!



The apple has a long storied history; From Adam and Eve to Johnny Appleseed to grandma’s secret recipe for apple pie. And we’ve all heard the adage; An Apple a Day Keeps the Doctor Away. (In Western Christian art, the fruit of the Tree of Knowledge is commonly depicted as the apple. This depiction may have originated as a Latin pun: By eating the malum/apple, Eve contracted mālum/evil. Nonetheless, its association has been entrenched in our culture.) 

Can it be true that this simple fruit can hold the key to health and longevity? The apple can help lower blood sugar. It slows down carbohydrate digestion by lowering the rate of glucose absorption from our digestive tract. The apple stimulates the pancreas to put out more insulin while the polyphenols in apples help to activate the cell insulin receptors. In this way, apples help facilitate passage of sugar from our bloodstream up into our cells.

This innocent orb is a powerful antioxidant as it has a good supply of vitamin C. Quercetin adds antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, antitumor, and antiviral properties. Researchers at Cornell University have identified several compounds—triterpenoids—in apple peel that have potent anti-growth activities against cancer cells in the liver, colon and breast. 

The fiber in the apple is both insoluble and soluble. The insoluble fiber helps to regulate bowel movements; either firming diarrhea or softening constipation. Apple pectin (also an antioxidant) can also be helpful for people with colitis, irritable bowel disease, and other digestive disorders. Soluble fiber keeps the insides of the blood vessels clean and helps to lower total cholesterol and LDL-cholesterol. Intake of apples is now known to significantly alter amounts of two bacteria (Clostridiales and Bacteriodes) in the large intestine. As a result, the intestines work more efficiently. 

Malic acid found in apples increases energy levels through its involvement in the Krebs cycle. Malic acid is a chelator and is able to bind to potentially toxic metals like aluminum, lead, and mercury and eliminate them. Heavy metal overload has been linked to serious health problems like liver disease and brain disorders such as Alzheimer's.

Eating apples helps maintain oral hygiene as it stimulates the production of saliva which reduces the number of harmful bacteria in your mouth. It’s a natural mouthwash. 

Bragg’s apple cider vinegar is a staple in my pantry. My favorite way to use it is by diluting 1 part organic unfiltered apple juice in 2 parts water. Then add 1-2 capfuls of Bragg’s ACV, depending on your palate. This not only dilutes the sugar content of the apple juice but it also gives the drink an extra zip. It tastes more like apple cider. The ACV is fermented; loaded with good bacteria and digestive enzymes. For indigestion/acid reflux (see prior blog There’s No Such Thing as Acid Reflux) use 2 capfuls in a shot of water. Toss that back quick, over the tongue, and in a few minutes the stomach pressure will be gone. 

But maybe the biggest secret concerning apples is kept within the seeds. How many of you eat the entire apple; core and seeds? The seeds are high in Vitamin B 17 also known as Laetrile or Amygdalin. Its ability to protect us from cancer is noted in the study of the Hunzas, an isolated tribe in Afghanistan. This population has a natural diet which supplies on the average between 50 to 75 milligrams of Vitamin B17 a day through apricot seeds. The Hunzas represent a population that has been cancer free for over 900 years of its existence. 

Are you eating an apple a day?

The Great Milk Debate



There are those who believe that the only milk a human will ever need comes from breast feeding as an infant. Weaning is nature’s way of saying we do not need mother’s milk anymore. All mammals wean their young. It’s as natural as the sunrise. From that point forward, calcium and other essential nutrients can be obtained by eating green leafy vegetables and other whole foods. As one who supports and promotes Natural Law, you may conclude that I am in this camp of thinking. After all, each mammal’s milk is specifically designed to rear its unique offspring into adulthood. Cow’s milk is designed and perfected by nature to help baby calves grow into big cows. Feline milk is engineered to turn little kittens into big cats. However, in as much as that all makes perfect sense, I also have faith in man’s intuition and instinct; man has been consuming raw milk products from animals for thousands of years. Whether milk comes from cows, water buffalo, sheep, camels, yak, goats, or even reindeer, unheated, unprocessed, raw milk has been a safe, reliable food source for eons. 

However, there are many health issues with milk today: Lactose intolerance, dairy sensitivities, allergies, mucus production, etc. So why didn’t we ever hear of these complaints while we sat on grandpa’s lap and listened to his stories about the Good Ole Days? The difference between our ancestor’s milk and the milk we have today is pasteurization. Grandpa’s milk was not. Our milk is. It’s not the dairy that is unhealthy; it’s the pasteurization that renders it so. The pasteurization process heats the milk to kill bacteria. (Though this is a simplified explanation, I would urge you to invest some time and research the history of and the need for pasteurization.) This heating process changes the entire chemical makeup of the milk. The proteins congeal, vitamins are cooked off, and the enzymes are destroyed, (Lactase, the enzyme that breaks down lactose, is abundant in raw milk and absent/killed off in pasteurized milk = lactose intolerance).

Can raw milk make you sick? Can you be struck by lightning or bitten by a shark? All food can be mishandled and raise its potential to create sickness. The eggs, spinach, cantaloupes, lettuce, tomatoes, strawberries, peanut butter, beef, and poultry that have caused sickness over the last few years were all from industrial farms monitored by the FDA. Deli meats are 10x more likely to cause illness than raw milk. Pasteurized milk comes with no guarantee of “purity” (www.realmilk.com/safety/reported-outbreaks-of-foodborne-illness).  Clean, healthy, grass fed cows produce clean healthy milk. It is the cows that are crammed into industrial farms, force fed GMO corn (unnatural diet), shot full of antibiotics and hormones that produce sick milk that demands pasteurization.

So I say, “Drink up!” Enjoy the long list of natural and healthy nutritional complexes:, Vitamin A, all of the  Bs, C, D, E, K, iron, iodine, calcium, phosphorus, magnesium, potassium, sodium, selenium, copper, probiotics, zinc, protein, immunoglobulins, essential fats, and some 60+ live enzymes. Mooooooooooo!

Peanut Allergies and Vaccines



I could not have imagined that there would ever be a time when a child could not bring a peanut butter and jelly sandwich to school for lunch. Eating peanut butter as a child is a rite of passage. But the world we live in today has done such an extensive job in violating Natural Law that we now have generations of children whose once perfect bodies are now scarred in the wake of medical dogma and bad science. Nut free zones are now acceptable and mainstream.  
 
Before we point the finger at vaccines as a cause of peanut allergies, we first need to understand some digestive physiology. When we eat protein, it is broken down into its constituent amino acids. Amino acids are allowed to pass through the intestinal wall and enter our blood stream. These amino acids are transported all over the body and dropped off where ever they are needed. It is at this cellular level, outside the blood stream, where the amino acids are reconstituted into whole proteins once again. Whole proteins are not supposed to be in the blood. If they are detected there, they are recognized as a foreign invader and the body calls on the immune system to create antibodies. Foreign protein in the blood creates a sensitivity and future exposure is a confirmed prompt for an allergic reaction.

Now let’s see if there is a means by which there would ever be an opportunity for undigested peanuts to be detected in the blood stream. Part of the recipe for a vaccine includes excipients. An excipient is an added substance mostly used as a preservative but can also have a role as a buffer, solvent, emulsifier, or stabilizer. In the mid-1960s, peanut oils were introduced as vaccine excipients. The oil was thought to act as a time release capsule and presumptively enhance the vaccine’s life span through its pilgrimage into the depths of our anatomy. By 1980 peanut oil had become the preferred excipient in vaccines. 

We all know that vaccines are not administered intravenously. However, vaccine injections are delivered intramuscularly where this concoction of bad science and physiological ignorance floods capillary beds and extracellular space. It is here, at the sight of injection, where intact whole proteins from the peanut oil can infiltrate our blood stream and create a systemic immune response. 

In the early-mid 1970s, after research began showing the dangers of peanut oil excipients, vaccine manufacturers were allowed to hide ingredients from the public. This was deemed proprietary information. 

In 1980 the mandated childhood vaccine schedule had 20 vaccines. There are now 68 and counting. And the peanut allergy epidemic continues to grow right along with it. Manufacturers will claim that the peanut oil is “scrubbed” clean, disinfected, sterilized, and proteins are all removed. Of course they would. But the FDA disagrees:

As science searches for answers to the rise in peanut allergies, they forget the 800 pound gorilla sitting in the corner. This is just one more reason why vaccines, propagated through the stranglehold of dogma, are a bad idea.
