The Truth Behind Flu Vaccines

I'll admit I've been fanatical about nutrition since I was a teenager. I've read scores of books on the subject, especially now that I'm taking the Naturopathic Doctor course. In my opinion Ann Louise Gittleman's books outshine many others. Her information is clear, concise, easy to follow, and backed up by her 20 years as a successful nutritionist.

I recently picked up a copy of "The Fast Track One-Day Detox Diet," which is much more than a weight loss diet. While it will also help you lose weight if you need to, it more importantly teaches you how to safely remove the toxins from your body and support your liver and eliminatory organs in the process.

Even if you don't need to lose weight, detoxing is very important in our modern industrial world. Every one of us is bombarded with toxic chemicals on a daily basis. Tests show that we all have much higher levels of toxins than our ancestors did 100 years ago. This can lead to cancer, heart disease, mental problems, and all sorts of autoimmune disorders.

You may live in a natural environment and eat only organic foods, but you are still subjected to auto fumes, plastics, heavy metals, radiation, and literally hundreds of toxic chemicals that are spewed into our air and water from industry and agribusiness - and don't forget sugar! Too much sugar is one of the most pervasive and destructive toxins in our modern world. Germs and cancers feed on sugar. Plus, it puts a strain on the pancreas and can create an over-acid system.

Do yourself a favor and start the new year with a clean system. The whole detox process only takes eleven days and only one of the days is a juice fast, so it's really pretty simple and easy. Plus, Ms. Gittleman gives lots of great advice on how to maintain health after the detox period.

Highly recommended! My only reservation is Gittleman's dependence on meat for protein, which has been shown to increase the risk of cancer, diebetes, and heart disease. See The China Study for more information on the advantages of a plant-based diet. Vegetarians will have to use some imagination to adapt Gittleman's diet to their lifestyle - see Newsletter # 6 - Vita Pro Plan! for excellent information on the best protein sources for everyone.

Speaking of toxins, by far the most prolific toxins come from our very own thoughts and feelings. Every time we hold onto anger, fear, frustration, sadness, or some other negative emotion we disturb the inner chemistry of our bodies in a very harmful way. Even our DNA contracts.

It has become very clear to me that we are meant to be happy, grateful, forgiving, and appreciative. These positive thoughts and feelings release endorphins, help to balance our hormones, relax our digestive system, and bring harmony to our bodies and minds. So, when we think about detoxing our bodies we have to include detoxing our minds as well.

Negative thoughts and emotions are nothing more than bad habits. They can be changed. Sometimes they are quite stubborn, because we subconsciously feel that they are protecting us from something else. If you have a hard time changing your habits of negative thinking, it may be time to seek help from a qualified therapist.

EFT is an excellent tool for releasing the hold of negative feelings and beliefs. For more information on EFT go to http://www.emofree.com/

I am an experienced EFT practitioner, and I've also used EFT to clear many of my own negative habits.

Here is a brief quote from an interview with Dr. Larry Dossey on the Mind-Body connection:

Dr. Larry Dossey
"Q: What role do you think one's mind plays in the health of the body?

Larry: I think that 'bodily health' is practically an oxymoron. One can't talk anymore about the health of the body without bringing in the effects of consciousness—by which I mean belief systems, meanings, emotions, attitudes, feeling-states, and so on. The day is long gone when we can separate the two. It's just inconsistent with the data. When we try to do this we really come up short, even when we attempt to treat the body as just a physical system and ignore the mind. We have to acknowledge the numerous double-blind, randomized controlled studies that take into account the placebo response, which clearly is an indication that the mind cannot be ignored. The placebo response is simply an expression of expectation, suggestion, and optimism about how a treatment is going to turn out. There may have been a time when doctors could get away with focusing on the body and ignoring the mind, but those days are gone forever."

More toxins! There is a lot of controversy about whether flu shots really work, and whether they are safe. The following article might give you pause before you stick your arm out for the needle.

Quote from Smart Publications -
Don't Catch That Cold or Flu
"Vaccine sales are increasing and it seems the sky is the limit as to how high sales will go. Global revenues from the sale of vaccines, which was once primarily a commodity market, are expected to reach nearly $10 billion in 2006, up from $5.4 billion in 2001.

Recently, the U.S. government agreed to stockpile $100 million worth of a still-experimental vaccine against the deadly avian flu virus. But are flu vaccines safe . . . and do they work?

Here are some of the toxins that are typically used in vaccines7:

* Thimerosal (a mercury disinfectant/preservative) has been implicated as a possible cause of the rising epidemic of autism in American children. Although it has been eliminated from most vaccinations in the US, it is still included in the flu shot. And according to the World Health organization, it is still widely used in developing countries.

* Ethylene glycol (antifreeze)

* Phenol, also known as carbolic acid (this is used as a disinfectant, and/or dye)

* Formaldehyde, a known carcinogenic

* Aluminum, which is associated with seizures and is a carcinogenic in laboratory mice. (It is used as an additive to promote antibody response.) Although it has been linked to Alzheimer's disease, there is no reason to believe it is a direct cause.

Vaccines are also grown and strained through animal or human tissues like monkey kidney tissue, chicken embryo, embryonic guinea pig cells, calf serum, and human diploid cells (the dissected organs of aborted human fetuses as in the case of rubella, hepatitis A, and chickenpox vaccines).

Today, the American Academy of Pediatrics recommends 21 shots before age 2, the first—for hepatitis B—coming within hours of birth. Boyd Haley, a professor of chemistry at the University of Kentucky, contends that if a child in the 1990s got all of the shots, he or she would be exposed to mercury levels of more than 100 times those deemed safe by the EPA."

I believe there are much safer ways to boost immunity, like using the following herbs:
