I'm currently taking a class at the local college called Creative Writing.  One of the things we are supposed to do for this class is keep a journal.  I really haven't done any journal writing since junior high &amp; all of my journals, stories &amp; poems were all thrown out when my grandmothers house was cleaned out.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Things have been a bit stressful the last couple of weeks around here.  So, one night when I was too stressed out to sleep, I found a notebook &amp; a pen &amp; just started to write.  I wrote 6 pages before I was finally tired enough to get some sleep.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So another way that is easy &amp; cheap, just write out your feelings on paper.  You don't have to show it anyone else, it can be just for your eyes only.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Have a good week,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Lori&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6621852627307570680-6478686829004904721?l=vaccinefreehealth.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://vaccinefreehealth.blogspot.com/feeds/6478686829004904721/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://vaccinefreehealth.blogspot.com/2012/01/destressing-easily.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6621852627307570680/posts/default/6478686829004904721'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6621852627307570680/posts/default/6478686829004904721'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://vaccinefreehealth.blogspot.com/2012/01/destressing-easily.html' title='Destressing Easily'/><author><name>Lori</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02020193395139759551</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-OYx57iOhGhY/Tfb8ol7u1zI/AAAAAAAAABA/JmagmNaYEZA/s220/nojab.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6621852627307570680.post-1592418360783613692</id><published>2012-01-15T00:27:00.000-06:00</published><updated>2012-01-15T00:27:26.290-06:00</updated><title type='text'>Dangers of Pork</title><content type='html'>Greetings,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I was surfing the net tonight &amp; came across this article tonight.  I thought it fit in perfectly with my To Eat or Not to Eat article I wrote last year.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A couple of highlights from the article are as follows -&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;PIGS are SCAVENGERS and will eat ANY kind of food, INCLUDING dead insects, worms, rotting carcasses, excreta including their own, garbage, and other pigs.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There are many diseases carried from swine to man, particularly parasite infestations.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Influenza (flu) is one of the most famous illnesses which pigs share with humans. This illness is harbored in the lungs of pigs during the summer months and tends to affect pigs and humans in the cooler months. Sausage contains bits of pigs' lungs, so those who eat pork sausage tend to suffer more during epidemics of influenza.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The human swine flu outbreak continues to grow...&lt;br /&gt;The outbreak of disease in people caused by a new influenza virus of swine origin continues to grow in the United States and internationally. Today, CDC reports additional confirmed human infections, hospitalizations and the nation's first fatality from this outbreak. The more recent illnesses and the reported death suggest that a pattern of more severe illness associated with this virus may be emerging in the U.S. Most people will not have immunity to this new virus and, as it continues to spread, more cases, more hospitalizations and more deaths are expected in the coming days and weeks.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Have a good week,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Lori&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6621852627307570680-1592418360783613692?l=vaccinefreehealth.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='related' href='http://www.squidoo.com/Dangers_of_Pork' title='Dangers of Pork'/><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://vaccinefreehealth.blogspot.com/feeds/1592418360783613692/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://vaccinefreehealth.blogspot.com/2012/01/dangers-of-pork.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6621852627307570680/posts/default/1592418360783613692'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6621852627307570680/posts/default/1592418360783613692'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://vaccinefreehealth.blogspot.com/2012/01/dangers-of-pork.html' title='Dangers of Pork'/><author><name>Lori</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02020193395139759551</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-OYx57iOhGhY/Tfb8ol7u1zI/AAAAAAAAABA/JmagmNaYEZA/s220/nojab.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6621852627307570680.post-2549385239544203690</id><published>2012-01-08T13:03:00.001-06:00</published><updated>2012-01-12T14:12:06.532-06:00</updated><title type='text'>Vertigo free &amp; LOVING it!!!</title><content type='html'>Greetings,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As I type this I'm celebrating! I haven't had a vertigo attack - major or minor in almost 3 months!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As many of faithful followers know I fought with vertigo for over 2 1/2 years.  I was going to physical therapy every 4-6 weeks to keep it in check so that I didn't get an attack when I was at school or I was out in the field working.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I'm sure many of you are asking what have I done differently that I no longer have this problem.  Well, I'm going to contribute it to a few different factors.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1.  Destress - I've cut back on my stress.  I don't let things get to me as easily as I used to &amp; if I do get upset, I try to keep it short lived.  Let it out &amp; then get back on track.  My daughter &amp; her boyfriend aren't quite sure what to think about this.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2.  Change in my diet - Cutting back on sugars &amp; other toxins in my life.  As I said in an earlier post, mercury is in many food &amp; may contribute to vertigo.  I'm still doing research into this &amp; hope to post more on this at a future date.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3.  Exercise - This isn't what you think it is.  I've looked back at when I first got vertigo &amp; what I've changed over the last few months, there is one change that I've done that I think has a made a HUGE change in my life.  I was an avid roller skater prior to my foot surgery in April of 2008.  I didn't start skating again until the end of October.  Just think the gentle loops that you are doing as you are going around the rink with an occasional quick loop if you are goofing off, or smaller loops if you are doing the "Hokey Pokey" around the middle loop of the rink.  If you aren't that good at dodgeball or some of your kids' friends have it in for them, I would advise you to avoid this activity.  It may sound harmless enough but if you are skating 15-20 mph to avoid getting hit you may get hit hard with a nerf ball (simple physics here) or you may wipe out &amp; do more harm than good.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;4.  More sleep - I've been working at getting more sleep.  I used to survive on catnaps if I had a bunch of work to do in a one week period or a lot school work to do in the same week.  So I try to get at least 6-8 hours of sleep per night.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;5.  More me time - I used to think that I was selfish if I took time for myself.  But now I give myself permission to take time for myself.  Whether its to read, watch some TV, take a drive thru a local state park or do some needlework.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I head back to school on the 9th.  In a way I'm looking forward to going back &amp; in another way I wish I had another week of break to get more things done around the house.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Until next time, have a good week.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Lori&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6621852627307570680-2549385239544203690?l=vaccinefreehealth.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://vaccinefreehealth.blogspot.com/feeds/2549385239544203690/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://vaccinefreehealth.blogspot.com/2012/01/vertigo-free-loving-it.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6621852627307570680/posts/default/2549385239544203690'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6621852627307570680/posts/default/2549385239544203690'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://vaccinefreehealth.blogspot.com/2012/01/vertigo-free-loving-it.html' title='Vertigo free &amp; LOVING it!!!'/><author><name>Lori</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02020193395139759551</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-OYx57iOhGhY/Tfb8ol7u1zI/AAAAAAAAABA/JmagmNaYEZA/s220/nojab.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6621852627307570680.post-8780552407431246727</id><published>2011-12-23T20:41:00.001-06:00</published><updated>2012-01-11T22:18:07.071-06:00</updated><title type='text'>3 Million Dead</title><content type='html'>Greetings,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I came across this article when I was doing some new research for a new blog entry so I decided to do a short entry on this topic.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3 Million people have died because of pharmaceuticals over the past 27 years.  But no one has died because of supplements.  Hmmm......mainstream news would have you think otherwise.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You hear it at least once a week that vitamins don't help prevent certain cancers or certain illnesses.  But yet, you hear the media portraying big pharma as our life savers.  Big pharma wants us to be dependent on them from cradle to grave.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Vaccines starting at birth&lt;br /&gt;Ritalin (a cousin of PCP) when a child enters school so they will sit still for the teacher&lt;br /&gt;Birth control &amp; Gardisil for our tween &amp; teen girls&lt;br /&gt;Various pharmaceuticals for women once they reach child bearing age &amp; don't forget the obligatory gall bladder removal that doctors think that women should have removed at some point in their life.  (I still have mine!)  We have these organs &amp; glands for a reason!&lt;br /&gt;High blood pressure meds, cholesterol meds, meds for GERD, diabetes meds, etc, do you see my point?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1,700 prescription medications were recalled from the market during 2009.  This is almost 5 per day.  Did you hear about this on the evening news?  Of course not, big pharma wants us to believe that their drugs are safe.  Approved by the FDA, dispensed widely to patients &amp; 3million dead from pharmaceuticals over a 27 year period.  Vioxx is a medication that comes to mind that was recalled &amp; recently a diabetes medication was recalled because of the problems associated with it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I've been watching the reactions from the Gardisil shot.  Over 100 girls died from the it during the month of August &amp; another 100 during the month of October.  This is what was reported to VAERS.  Remember, only about 1-10% of reactions get reported so that number is probably much greater!  If this shot was anything but a vaccine it would have been pulled from the market already.  If you know of any moms who are considering given this to their daughters, please show them this article!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Here is the link to original article that gave me the idea for this blog entry.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;http://www.naturalnews.com/034372_vitamins_pharmaceuticals_deaths.html&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Until next time, have a great weekend!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Lori&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6621852627307570680-8780552407431246727?l=vaccinefreehealth.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://vaccinefreehealth.blogspot.com/feeds/8780552407431246727/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://vaccinefreehealth.blogspot.com/2011/12/3-million-dead.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6621852627307570680/posts/default/8780552407431246727'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6621852627307570680/posts/default/8780552407431246727'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://vaccinefreehealth.blogspot.com/2011/12/3-million-dead.html' title='3 Million Dead'/><author><name>Lori</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02020193395139759551</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-OYx57iOhGhY/Tfb8ol7u1zI/AAAAAAAAABA/JmagmNaYEZA/s220/nojab.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6621852627307570680.post-6948033266561199985</id><published>2011-12-05T22:26:00.000-06:00</published><updated>2011-12-05T22:26:55.390-06:00</updated><title type='text'>Confirming what we already knew about the Flu Shot</title><content type='html'>Greetings everyone,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I came across this article on Facebook tonight &amp; I just had to pass it along.

I've been struggling with some of my papers this semester but this one I felt like I was in my "groove" on this paper &amp; it came very easily.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I was so happy with it that I decided to share it with my readers.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Enjoy!!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Lori&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;P.S.  If you are coming across this article while doing research for a college paper, you may use any part of this article.  Just be sure you cite where it came from.  Thank you.  :)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;      Consumerism – we see this in greater quantity this time of year.  People buying gifts that will only be used for a week or two and then will not see the light of day for a long time.  Has consumerism affected our health?  How has big pharma affected our consumerism towards the health of our children?  Colin Beavan, Annie Leonard, Pico Iyer the cluster New Ethics of Consumption and Brenda Watson all talk about how our lives today affect our health.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; The World English Dictionary defines consumerism(1) as “Advocacy of a high rate of consumption and spending as a basis for a sound economy.  The U.S. pays the highest amount when it comes to medical costs but yet we are the sickest nation in the world.  The income from vaccines alone for big pharma is $34 billion a year.  Parents of children are the consumers of big pharma.  They blindly line for these drugs without doing their homework first.  The ingredients that are in these vaccines haven't been tested for short or long term health affects.  Annie Leonard (2) states in her story of stuff “There are over 100,000 chemicals that are used in the production of materials today.  And tests have only been done on a fraction of those chemicals.”  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; Big pharma is going to do anything and everything they can to protect their income.  This is why you see so much advertising on TV today for drugs and for viewers to “talk to their doctors” about this drug.  With over 140 vaccines coming down the pipeline over the next 20 years, big pharma won't make money if we are healthy only if we are kept sick.  Many ingredients in vaccines haven't been tested for short term or long term safety.  The affects of SV-40 from the Polio vaccine in the sixties is only now becoming apparent with brain cancer being the common denominator in these patients.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; Colin Beavan (3) talks about kids that live in the big city have more cases of asthma because of all the diesel pollutants in the air from trucks that deliver goods for stores and other places.  (203)  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; This is another area that big pharma doesn't want you to know about.  Vitamin D3 taken daily can reduce or eliminate asthma attacks all together.  I've had asthma since I was seven and haven't had a major attack in years.  I contribute this to my high daily intake of Vitamin D3.  Big pharma is trying outlaw supplements because they bite into their income, they can't regulate them.  If Codex Alimentarius is pushed thru, then supplements will only be allowed thru prescriptions.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; During Mr. Beaven's (4) visit, he talked about his daughter getting really sick during their trip to Italy.  It was contributed to febrile seizures that the doctors said she would outgrow in time.  What&lt;br /&gt;aren't we being told about this episode?  What medications or vaccines did Isabella receive prior to this visit?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; I looked at the CDC website to see what vaccines are required for travel to Italy.  No special vaccines are required but they do recommend the flu shot, chicken pox vaccine, Polio, MMR and the DPT shots.  The flu shot alone has been known to cause reactions that are neurological in nature, including seizures.  The MMR shot has been linked to autism.  A good question for Mr. Beavan would be what vaccines did she prior to this trip?&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt; Pico Iyer (5) talks about taking trips that are thousands of miles without a second thought.  You are traveling with dozens if not a hundred other passengers.  You are breathing the same recirculated air they are.  Most of the time passengers get sick after traveling on air craft.  Sometimes this can happen within a few days or sometimes it happens within a few weeks.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; Our reliance on big pharma as part of our consumerism is one of the reasons we are chronically sick as a nation.  We are the vaccinated country in the world.  But yet our kids are the sickest in the world and we pay higher medical costs than other countries.  Why are more people traveling when they are sick than they were thirty years ago?  Many travel out of necessity for work but how many are traveling for leisure?  When I flew on an airplane for travel during the late 70s and early 80s, you had &lt;br /&gt;to be well in order to get on a plane.  Currently they only worry if there is a big outbreak of a communicable disease.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt; In Ethics of Consumption (6) cluster, there is a section on “Our Thirst for Bottled Water”.  The chart on page 567 shows some liquids that are consumed by the gallons per year by the average U.S. Citizen.  Soft drinks are at the top of the chart followed by tap water, coffee, beer &amp; milk.  Bottled water is on the way up.  Part of this trend is being fed by the fashion that its fashionable to carry bottled water around.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; Depending on the plastic that is used, bottled water can leach chemicals into the water that is toxic to the human body.  Styrofoam coffee cups leach styrene into the human body, this has been known to disrupt the endocrine system which is also linked to our hormones.  All of this leads to stress on the body which lead to a breakdown overtime.  This is one of the reasons why chronic illness is so prevalent today.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; In Brenda Watson's youtube video (7) “Brenda Watson's Detox Strategy: Vibrant Health in 5 Easy Steps – Personal and Household Products, Watson talks about how many chemicals are in the average home for personal use and for use around the home.  She also talks about how 89% of them haven't been tested for safety.  “Even toothpaste comes with a poison control warning label.”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; Everyday when we are watching TV, looking at a magazine ornewspaper we are bombarded by ads for cleaning products for our homes.  The inactive ingredients are 99% of the product but these inactive ingredients haven't been tested for safety.  We as consumers need to be more proactive by telling the producers of these products that we want to know what is in these cleaning products.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; Its time that us as consumers stand up for what it right.  We have a right to know what our food is being treated with.  We have a right to know all of the dangers of the medicine we are being prescribed, not just the parts they want us to know about.  We have a right to know about the dangers of the products being used in the making of furniture, carpets and other household goods.  Its time the government stop taking the sides of big corporations and stand up for the people.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Works Cited Page&lt;br /&gt;   &lt;br /&gt;1.

Pink t-shirts, pink hats, pink bracelets and just about anything else that can appear pink.  So what is all this pink really about?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Pink is associated with girls.  When a newborn girl is brought home from the hospital, she is showered with pink things.  We see breast cancer awareness shirts saying “Fight Like a Girl” usually in pink on a black shirt.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;One in eight women will get breast cancer at some point in their lives.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I traveled to Urbandale last week to a Thermography Center to interview a specialist in detecting breast cancer using this method that you rarely hear about.  I only expected to be there for twenty to thirty minutes.  The co-owners of the center and compounding pharmacy spent about an hour and half with me.  They gave me a tour of the facility, showed me the room where the thermography scans take place and the camera.  What follows is an overview of this interview.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You hear about mammograms detecting breast cancer.  But there is another method to detect cancer eight to ten years before a mammogram can detect them.  This method is called a Thermogram or Therm.  It uses body heat to detect where a tumor might be growing.  Tumors need a vascular blood supply in order to grow.  As blood vessels build and blood starts flowing, heat is generated around this mass that is growing.  The coolest color on the spectrum for this scan is black with white being the hottest.  There are 3,000 colors in between. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The room that has the camera in it is temperature controlled.  There are no windows and no ventilation system circulating air through the room.  There is a small portable air conditioner in the room if it gets to hot but is shut off thirty minutes prior to a scan in order to equalize out the temperature.  The temperature of the room is between 18 and 21 degrees Celsius, which is 64.4 and 70.34 deg. Fahrenheit.  They measure the room in Celsius because some people would see the higher temps in Fahrenheit and could get hot just seeing that temperature.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Once you are in the room, you are asked to disrobe from the waist up.  You are then given fifteen minutes to acclimate to the room temperature.  For ten minutes you stand with your arms at your sides and the remaining 5 minutes your arms are up by your head.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A twenty point analysis is then given to each quadrant and there are four quadrants on each breast.  There is a scan that is done from the front and then a scan on the left and right sides.  Then if necessary, a scan is done with a breast lift.  The scan only lasts for a few minutes.  The technician isn’t allowed to read the scan for liability reasons.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The scan is then sent to a doctor in California, Dr. William Amalu, for analysis and assigned a TH value.  A one TH value is normal, no mass is seen and a TH value of five, we need to pay attention to this and evaluate further.  The colors that the doctor is looking for are light blue to white.  There are cold mass tumors meaning no blood supply but they are rare.  Thermograms can also pick up hormone inbalances.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;With mammograms, they miss twenty percent of all cancers.  Thermograms only miss ten percent.  When you get a mammogram, there is compression of the breast and radiation that is put into a very sensitive area.  The radiation that is used by mammograms can be 1,000 times greater than that of a chest x-ray as told by Dr. Joseph Mercola.  Each year that you get a mammogram, your chances of getting breast cancer increase by two percent according to Dr. Russell Blaylock.  The compression is equal to 20- 2.2 pound bags of sugar being placed on the breast.  With foot operated machines, this equivalent goes up to 58 bags of sugar as told by Lynn Mc Taggart's: What Doctors Don't Tell You: The Truth About the Dangers of Modern Medicine.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Mammograms have a hard time seeing through dense or fibrocystic breasts.  Thermograms have no problem with these types of breasts as it is looking for hot areas in comparison to the rest of the breast.  Whereas mammograms are looking for mass.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Thermograms can also do full body scans which helps with strokes, diabetes and cardiovascular problems detection.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Mammograms and thermograms came out at the same time.  Thermograms were approved by the FDA in 1982.  A thermogram doesn’t replace a mammogram, they can be used in conjunction with each other.  Why expose yourself to radiation if you don’t need to?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Now that we’ve talked about thermography and breast cancer detection.  Is there  a way to prevent breast cancer?  There are thoughts are on this and two different facilities have told me basically the same thing.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;One, avoid birth control.  Artificial hormones are not good for the body.  The breast tissue is under developed until a woman becomes pregnant for the first time.  The breast tissue develops during pregnancy in preparation for nursing.  The list of side affects for birth control is longer than any other drug on the market says Dr. Mayer Eisenstein of Home First clinics near Chicago.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Two, Take Vitamin D3.  The higher the level of D3 you have in your body, the less likely you are to get some types of cancers.  (as seen in the chart associated with this article) Ask your doctor to test your Vitamin D3 level.  Some insurance companies will cover the cost of this test, others won’t unless it is warranted with some medial conditions.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Three, cut back on your aluminum exposure.  The aluminum accumulates in your brain and in your lymph nodes.  The most common use for girls with aluminum is antiperspirants.  Many vaccines have toxic levels of aluminum also.  Many breast cancer patients who have a mastectomy also have their lymph nodes removed near the area where you put your deodorant on.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Four, Soy Milk changes breast tissue.  Cut back or avoid on Soy Milk intake.  Cutting it out would be a good thing since soy could have GMO products in it which opens up a whole another can of worms.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Five, avoid Mountain Dew &amp; diet pops.  These have bromide in them which is an enemy to Iodine.  Bromide attaches itself to various parts of your body that are fighting for space with iodine.  If you are deficient in Iodine, you have a higher risk of developing breast cancer.  Think about this when you hear on the news to cut back on your salt intake but on the same token don’t overdo it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Six, lose the extra weight.  When a woman is carrying extra weight, her body is producing extra estrogen.  This can cause estrogen dominance which can lead to health problems like PMS, uterine fibroids &amp; menorrhagia (abnormally heavy menstral bleeding).  As we read in the profile of Michelle Tedrow, weight loss helped her find a lump during a self exam.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It’s important to get a baseline so that doctors know when changes occur.  With mammograms, this baseline is usually at the age of 35 or 40 depending on the history of your family.  With thermograms, this age moves up to the age of 20.  The incidence of breast cancer under the age of 40 is on the rise and it’s important to have that first finger print in place before any changes that might take place.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Let this month be the month that we take our first step in becoming healthier.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6621852627307570680-548795901279247838?l=vaccinefreehealth.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://vaccinefreehealth.blogspot.com/feeds/548795901279247838/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://vaccinefreehealth.blogspot.com/2011/10/october-is-breast-cancer-awareness.html#comment-form' title='3 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6621852627307570680/posts/default/548795901279247838'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6621852627307570680/posts/default/548795901279247838'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://vaccinefreehealth.blogspot.com/2011/10/october-is-breast-cancer-awareness.html' title='October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month'/><author><name>Lori</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02020193395139759551</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-OYx57iOhGhY/Tfb8ol7u1zI/AAAAAAAAABA/JmagmNaYEZA/s220/nojab.jpg'/></author><thr:total>3</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6621852627307570680.post-5776529120360716894</id><published>2011-09-18T11:55:00.001-05:00</published><updated>2011-09-18T11:57:12.400-05:00</updated><title type='text'>Aware &amp; Safe</title><content type='html'>Rape - this word strikes fear in the heart of many women.  1 in 6 women will be raped in their lifetime.  1 in 3 will be sexually assaulted.  Rape is the most violent form of crime that occurs on college campuses today.  25% of college students will be raped before college graduation.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When many female students go to college, it is their first time away from home.  They set their own curfews, go to parties that go late or all night.  Many students have classes that go well after sunset.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There are some ways to protect yourself at night &amp; at parties to help you to avoid becoming a victim of a rape or sexual assault.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1.  Use a buddy system.  Don't go out alone at night.  Whether you are leaving your dorm or apartment for a walk or a run to the convenience store, ask a room mate or friend to go with you.  If you are leaving a class after dark, walk out with a classmate or have your professor walk out with you if you are the last one to leave the classroom.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2.  Use your car key as a weapon.  Put your car key between your index finger &amp; middle finger.  If you are attacked, you can use this key to poke, scratch or gouge at your attacker to inflict enough injury to get away to a safe location.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3.  If you go a party, keep your drink in your sight at all time. 90% of all rapes occur while a person is under the influence of alcohol.  Rohypnol can be slipped into a drink &amp; you won't even know it's there.  It is tasteless, odorless &amp; doesn't cloud a clear drink.  There are signs that you have been drugged with Rohypnol, they are - It creates a sleepy, relaxed, and drunk feeling that lasts 2 to 8 hours. Other effects may include blackouts, with a compete loss of memory, dizziness and disorientation, nausea, difficulty with motor movements and speaking.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If you've been the victim of a sexual assault then you need to seek medical treatment as soon as possible.  Rohypnol can detected in a urine test up to 60 hours after being ingested by a victim.  If you take a shower, all of the evidence will be washed away.  Its best to get a rape kit done sooner rather than later.  A rape kit will be done to check for fluids on the skin &amp; in or around the vaginal area, to look for skin under the fingernails, pubic hair from your attacker &amp; any other injuries that might have been inflicted during the attack.  Rape kits for minors are mandatory for some states but optional in other states.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You will then give a statement to the police.  As embarassing as it might be, it's necessary to be done as soon as possible after the attack since the memory of the attack will be fresh in your mind.  Some departments have female officers that work with rape victims, ask if there is one available.&lt;br /&gt;After giving your statement, the county attorney will decide if there is enough evidence to procede to a trial or if there is insufficient evidence.  Sometimes, if your assailant says they did nothing wrong &amp; there is very little evidence to go on, the case be will closed.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The anniversary date of your assault may bring up memories.  If your attacker dies, this can bring up powerful memories, sometimes of relief that you don't have to worry about that person anymore if they weren't convicted.  It can also bring about feelings of anger if the evidence collected wasn't enough to go to trial.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There are resources out there to help a victim get thru their attack &amp; move on.  THERE IS life after a rape or sexual assault.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Lets stay Aware &amp; Safe this semester.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sources - &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;http://www.bu.edu/police/prevention/rohypnol_fact_sheet.htm&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;http://www.drugfree.org/drug-guide/rohypnol&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;http://www.turningpointservices.org/sexualassault.htm&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;http://www.crisisconnectioninc.org/sexualassault/college_campuses_and_rape.htm&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6621852627307570680-5776529120360716894?l=vaccinefreehealth.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://vaccinefreehealth.blogspot.com/feeds/5776529120360716894/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://vaccinefreehealth.blogspot.com/2011/09/aware-safe.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6621852627307570680/posts/default/5776529120360716894'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6621852627307570680/posts/default/5776529120360716894'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://vaccinefreehealth.blogspot.com/2011/09/aware-safe.html' title='Aware &amp; Safe'/><author><name>Lori</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02020193395139759551</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-OYx57iOhGhY/Tfb8ol7u1zI/AAAAAAAAABA/JmagmNaYEZA/s220/nojab.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6621852627307570680.post-4533495610225827256</id><published>2011-09-04T21:42:00.000-05:00</published><updated>2011-09-04T21:42:15.941-05:00</updated><title type='text'>SANE Vax to FDA: Recombinant HPV DNA found in multiple samples of Gardasil</title><content type='html'>&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Greetings friends,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As things finally calm down a bit around the home front, a new development has appeared in the fight against Gardisil.

If you're 80-90-even 100 years old...Tbars have been clinically proven to be reduced within 30 days to the levels of a 20 year old. THIS IS AMAZING science being validated by over 29 universities at the moment.

Those that are doing so now, are doing it at their cost, independently of each other, blind to their studies, all confirming each other's hypothesis.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;THIS WILL BE THE MOST REMARKABLE support for parents of ASD children, cancers, autoimmune derailments, over 200 diseases.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You would need to consume over 87 glasses of red wine, 350 oranges, over 30 pounds of raspberries, 11 pounds of blueberries, 15 pounds of dark chocolate, or 120 vitamin 500 mg C tablets every day to equal the antioxidant power you receive from just one Protandim caplet daily.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We will be reviewing how our bodies can do what they are designed to do when provided with what they require to enable their design.  We are seeing over 4000 gene actions that are upregulated in healthy fashion that support proper physiological processes.  You will not want to miss this opportunity.  Dates and location will be posted as we move forward.  Plan on opening your schedules for this wonderful medical professional to educate us about the wonders of herbal applications.Dr Marvin has a CV that is a mile long.  He was  a former teaching doctor at Kansas State, as well as, Oral Roberts University in Oklahoma.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I'm going to take time from writing full blog entries.

A total stranger could look at him &amp; say "no way are you almost 53 years old" but he is.  He has just a few gray hairs here &amp; there, you have to really look to find them.  We were looking at his classmates, many were fully gray or about 50% there.  When we go to my class reunions (I graduated 12 years after he did), he looks like he belongs in my class.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Here is a link to his pic, does he look like he'll be 53 in September?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;http://i226.photobucket.com/albums/dd52/mopar28m/100_1744.jpg&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Now, what does my funny husband contribute his youthful appearance to?  Well, we follow the dietary laws listed in Lev. 11, he gets at least 20 min. a day in the sun with 40% body exposure to get his Vit. D to keep his immune system healthy &amp; I'm sure his corny sense of humor has a bit to do with it also.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I'm sure many of you are saying "Lori, where is your pic?".  I'll be posting mine soon, just don't happen to have any I'm really happy with at the moment.

Everything went well &amp; she slept most of the 2 1/2 hour trip home.  She is taking Vicodin for the pain, Penicillen to keep any infection at bay &amp; starts swishing with a mouthwash twice a day today.  After she gets done with her antibiotics, we'll have to start her on probiotics to rebuild the flora in the gut area.  Antibiotics destroy the flora &amp; can cause digestion problems.  She wasn't swelled up to much yesterday but is starting to swell up now.  We are using hot, moist compresses to keep the swelling at bay.  She has many days of R&amp;R ahead of her.

One of the last stages of the disease is loss of hearing.  I can't imagine life like that.  I love to listen to music to much &amp; watch movies on TV.  I don't know for sure I have it, as a series of tests need to be done to know for sure.  I've decided to take a pro-active approach to my health.    &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As I was looking thru my stats tonight, I came across some search words that gave me an idea of what I may be dealing with &amp; a possible solution.  The key words were "do vaccines cause meniere's".  This possibility never came to mind.  As a child, I received the vaccinations that were "required" for kids to enter school back in 1975.  Lets take a look at the vaccine schedule for kids back then.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2 months: DTP, TOPV (trivalent oral polio virus)&lt;br /&gt;4 months: DTP, TOPV&lt;br /&gt;6 months: DTP, TOPV&lt;br /&gt;1 year: Measles, TB test&lt;br /&gt;1-12 years: Rubella, Mumps&lt;br /&gt;1 1/2 years: DTP, TOPV&lt;br /&gt;4-6 years: DTP, TOPV&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I remember getting a shot in the backside prior to entering school.  It made me sick &amp; I slept for over 12 hours after getting it.  In 2nd grade, I remember distinctly my classmates getting a vaccine during school hours.  Shortly after they got it, many started complaining of dizziness, seeing double &amp; nausea.  Many of them went home within a couple of hours of getting the vaccine.  I don't remember exactly which one it was but somehow I got out of it.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Even though I never received any vaccines beyond the age of 5, I did receive many allergy shots between the ages of 7 &amp; 10.  I've wondered for the last few years, did those shots contain Thimerosal, mercury or other toxins?  I'm going to be heading up to the city in about 10 days where my allergist had his office which I'm sure has changed hands a few times since the last time I was there back in the late 80s to see if they still have my records.  I'm going to ask to see if the insert that came with the shots.  That will put the first piece of the puzzle into place.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Now that I have one possible piece of mercury tracked down, what about other areas?  One web page I was reading, it was talking about amalgam fillings.  I've never had any of those, so cross that off the list.  Many in the dental field will say that amalgam fillings are safe.  However, long term safety studies have never been done on amalgam fillings.  I know some people who have had their fillings removed &amp; they have started to feel better.  Hmm, coincidence?  I don't think so.  Nickel is used in braces, this is the 3rd toxic metal when it comes to neurotoxins. (mercury &amp; aluminum are the first two respectively)  How many thousands of kids have had braces during their teens years?  I can count myself among the unfortunate one of those teens.  For 3 1/2 years (I was only told I would have them for 2 years), I had those in my mouth.  My daughter is supposed to be getting them this summer.  I'm going to see if we can pay the difference between the regular braces (which the insurance will cover) &amp; the invisalign ones to avoid her from having the toxic metal in her mouth.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This video below shows a smoking tooth, 50 years after it was removed from a mouth.  It is still letting loose mercury vapors.  Imagine what it is doing in a persons mouth.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9ylnQ-T7oiA&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My husband got a porcelain crown when he was about 11 years old.  If you look at the back of his crown there is a heavy metal holding it in place.  I've talked to dentists who are familiar with dentistry of the 50s, 60s &amp; 70s &amp; they have told me it is mercury based.  We are going to have it removed &amp; replaced with a mercury-free replacement.  This removal involves a vacuum system to pull the mercury fumes away from the patient.  The mercury that is removed is considered hazmat &amp; will to be disposed of as such.  Funny, how its ok to put mercury in a persons mouth but has to be treated as hazmat once its removed.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Next step in finding thimerosal &amp; mercury in my life is to look at my food &amp; environment.  I don't live near a coal mine, so that rules that out.  I'll be looking at other possible sources of heavy metals &amp; other sources of toxins.  High fructose corn syrup has been known to have mercury in it.  I've just about eliminated all of that from our diet.  Since heavy metals are known to accumulate in the brain, even though I've eliminated them from my diet, they are still in my system.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So, the next step is Chelation therapy.  That helped Desiree Jennings when she was injured by the flu shot.  After several sessions of chelation therapy, she was able to walk &amp; talk normally.  So, maybe if I get the mercury &amp; other heavy metals out of my system, my body can start to heal itself.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;That will be the next topic of my blog.  I'll be looking at the different types of chelation therapy, the advantages &amp; disadvantages of each kind &amp; which route I'm going to go.  I'm also going to look into whole body detoxifying.  I've read that if you detoxify the body one area at a time, the toxins just go to other parts of the body so you have to do it all at once.  There are a few different detoxifiers out there, so I will have to see which one is the best one to go with.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Til next time, have a good week,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Lori&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sources -&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;http://www.menieres-disease.ca/index.htm&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;http://www.dentalwellness4u.com/mercurydetox/menieres.html&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;http://www.holisticmed.com/dental/amalgam/&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;http://money.usnews.com/money/blogs/fresh-greens/2009/01/28/mercury-found-in-high-fructose-corn-syrup&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2009/01/26/AR2009012601831.html&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;http://www.gaia-health.com/articles101/000116-Chelation-Cure.shtml&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;http://www.sensationizer.com/2010/07/dystonia-symptoms-disabled-desiree.html&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;http://www.dailypaul.com/113532/flu-shot-victim-desiree-jennings-cured-of-untreatable-neurological-disorder&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;http://www.stopagingnow.com/liveinthenow/article/the-scary-truth-about-dentistry&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;http://modernherbaleducation.com/articles/dental-health-hazards.html&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;http://www.drcelltox.com/&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;http://www.detoxreviews.com/&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;http://www.21daybodymakeover.com/&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6621852627307570680-7431715244616075131?l=vaccinefreehealth.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://vaccinefreehealth.blogspot.com/feeds/7431715244616075131/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://vaccinefreehealth.blogspot.com/2011/06/my-path-to-healthier-life-part-1.html#comment-form' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6621852627307570680/posts/default/7431715244616075131'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6621852627307570680/posts/default/7431715244616075131'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://vaccinefreehealth.blogspot.com/2011/06/my-path-to-healthier-life-part-1.html' title='My path to a healthier life - Part 1'/><author><name>Lori</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02020193395139759551</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-OYx57iOhGhY/Tfb8ol7u1zI/AAAAAAAAABA/JmagmNaYEZA/s220/nojab.jpg'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6621852627307570680.post-4705499885443973190</id><published>2011-06-12T12:52:00.000-05:00</published><updated>2011-06-12T12:52:36.527-05:00</updated><title type='text'>Myths of the 1918 Pandemic laid  to rest</title><content type='html'>Greetings everyone,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I apologize for my not posting things regularly.  I'm having to deal with a lot of things in my extended family life.  So in order to lower my stress level, I'm letting things go a bit.  One by taking the summer off from school &amp; the other one by not spending so much time online.  You never thought that spending time online could be stresful did you?  &gt;smiling&lt;  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But, as I was browsing Facebook, I came across an article that Leslie Botha posted on anothers friends Facebook page.  I thought it was very relevant to vaccines as doctors will tell you that after your child gets vaccines to give them Tylenol or some sort of ibuprofen to lower their fevers or pain relievers.  Aspirin played a big part in the high death rate from the 1918 flu pandemic.  Soldiers were given twice the amount of aspirin that is considered safe today.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Here is an important part of the article -&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Why does the CDC persist in the myth despite evidence to the contrary? Eschewing motives, one might only suggest some effects of projecting the terrifying myth that millions of people could die from virus: &lt;br /&gt;  &lt;br /&gt;1.  distraction from the hard reality that natural treatments were the only effective treatments during 1918. &lt;br /&gt;  &lt;br /&gt;2.  cloaking of Bayer, aspirin and the industry''s role in the deaths. &lt;br /&gt;  &lt;br /&gt;3.  sales of billions in anti-viral drugs and vaccine development. &lt;br /&gt;  &lt;br /&gt;4.  increased financial power to the pharmaceutical industry to control media and influence government. &lt;br /&gt;  &lt;br /&gt;4.  increased illnesses and deaths from chemical pharmaceutical agents, one of the highest risk factors. &lt;br /&gt;  &lt;br /&gt;5.  fearful dependence on "expert medical authority" and complex expensive "solutions" to save people.    &lt;br /&gt;  &lt;br /&gt;6.  surrender of unlimited authority to government regulatory agencies to "protect" the public from natural products. &lt;br /&gt;  &lt;br /&gt;7.  use of the specter of millions of deaths as the justification for the removal of human rights to "protect" the public. &lt;br /&gt;  &lt;br /&gt;8.  enhancement of the pharmaceutical industry moves toward an uncontested global monopoly over health (life and death). &lt;br /&gt;  &lt;br /&gt;9.  industrialization, commercialization, and militarization of "disease." &lt;br /&gt;  &lt;br /&gt;10.  an open door to use of "pandemic emergency" to justify martial law. &lt;br /&gt;(remember that the H1N1 flu was declared a pandemic, even tho it never happened, only 1/3 of Americans got "vaccinated" against this flu)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You can read the article in its entirety at this link -&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;http://www.rense.com/general94/Bayer.htm&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Here is another great article on the 1918 pandemic -&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;http://www.whale.to/vaccine/sf1.html&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Have a great week,&lt;br /&gt;Lori&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6621852627307570680-4705499885443973190?l=vaccinefreehealth.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://vaccinefreehealth.blogspot.com/feeds/4705499885443973190/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://vaccinefreehealth.blogspot.com/2011/06/myths-of-1918-pandemic-laid-to-rest.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6621852627307570680/posts/default/4705499885443973190'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6621852627307570680/posts/default/4705499885443973190'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://vaccinefreehealth.blogspot.com/2011/06/myths-of-1918-pandemic-laid-to-rest.html' title='Myths of the 1918 Pandemic laid  to rest'/><author><name>Lori</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02020193395139759551</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-OYx57iOhGhY/Tfb8ol7u1zI/AAAAAAAAABA/JmagmNaYEZA/s220/nojab.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6621852627307570680.post-915176747139114191</id><published>2011-06-09T22:47:00.000-05:00</published><updated>2011-06-09T22:47:50.886-05:00</updated><title type='text'>BPPV, Meniere's Disease &amp; Wisdom Teeth</title><content type='html'>Greetings,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As some of you have read, last Spring I ended up in the emergency room with severe vertigo.  I'm still going to physical therapy to counter act the "crystals" in my ears so that I can maintain some sort of normal life.  As I was talking with my physical therapist today, I told her the symptoms that would show up that would precede a vertigo attack within 24 hours.  Normally, I have constant ringing in my ears but sometimes a 2nd tone will present itself along with intense pressure, like a severe ear infection.  Within a day, I will be down with a vertigo attack.  She told me today those are symptoms of Meniere's but the physical therapy moves indicate BPPV.  Sigh......I just want the vertigo to disappear completely.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My 16 year old daughter will be getting her wisdom teeth out at the end of the month.  Her lower ones are growing in sideways &amp; the roots are in the jaw.  Her upper ones are crowding her upper teeth.  They will be using IV sedation during the removal.  One question that I have, does Novacaine have thimerosal in it?  If so, is there a novacaine that doesn't?  What about the IV sedation?  So many questions to get answered before the end of the month.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;From the research I've done, It doesn't look like novocaine contains Thimerosal.  I'm going to call the dental clinic on Monday to double check that fact.  I'll check on the sedative then too.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Hope to get another article up this weekend, &lt;br /&gt;Lori&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6621852627307570680-915176747139114191?l=vaccinefreehealth.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://vaccinefreehealth.blogspot.com/feeds/915176747139114191/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://vaccinefreehealth.blogspot.com/2011/06/bppv-menieres-disease-wisdom-teeth.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6621852627307570680/posts/default/915176747139114191'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6621852627307570680/posts/default/915176747139114191'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://vaccinefreehealth.blogspot.com/2011/06/bppv-menieres-disease-wisdom-teeth.html' title='BPPV, Meniere&apos;s Disease &amp; Wisdom Teeth'/><author><name>Lori</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02020193395139759551</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-OYx57iOhGhY/Tfb8ol7u1zI/AAAAAAAAABA/JmagmNaYEZA/s220/nojab.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6621852627307570680.post-1572218790091162716</id><published>2011-05-28T13:12:00.000-05:00</published><updated>2011-05-28T13:12:19.998-05:00</updated><title type='text'>Help for California Exemptions</title><content type='html'>Greetings everyone,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It seems like there are some states that are trying to make it harder for parents to exempt their kids out of getting vaccinated.  Now it looks like California is going that route.  A friend on Facebook posted this info to help parents in that state.  I'm passing it along here.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Hi all in California - exemptions from vaccines in 2011 (don't let them fool you - you still can exempt from Tdap vaccine (Tetanus/diphtheria/whooping cough) - just giving you one more hoop to jump through.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sheri Nakken Vaccinedangers There are 2 things you will need to sign&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1.

There is one case of measles in the State of Iowa &amp; the head of the Iowa Department of Health has declared a public health emergency.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;http://www.kcci.com/health/28008737/detail.html&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I know that Patricia Quinlisk likes to take the safe route but is this really necessary?  And she is telling everyone to check their families immunzation records to make sure everyone is current on their vaccines.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I know that Measles is contagious BUT this is being exaggerated beyond belief.  For many kids, having measles was a rite of passage during their childhood years.  But now that big pharma has come out with a vaccine for this disease, it becomes a killer.  Granted, there are some kids who have severe side affects from getting measles, some are as serious as blindness or death but most got thru it just fine.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If you go to the web page, you'll see that I'm refutting the measles vaccine.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;http://www.kcci.com/health/28008737/detail.html&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Get the low down on measles &amp; the vaccine.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;http://www.thinktwice.com/measles.htm&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Enjoy the rest of your week,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Lori&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6621852627307570680-619585663346563672?l=vaccinefreehealth.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://vaccinefreehealth.blogspot.com/feeds/619585663346563672/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://vaccinefreehealth.blogspot.com/2011/05/one-case-equals-emergency.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6621852627307570680/posts/default/619585663346563672'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6621852627307570680/posts/default/619585663346563672'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://vaccinefreehealth.blogspot.com/2011/05/one-case-equals-emergency.html' title='One case equals an emergency?'/><author><name>Lori</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02020193395139759551</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-OYx57iOhGhY/Tfb8ol7u1zI/AAAAAAAAABA/JmagmNaYEZA/s220/nojab.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6621852627307570680.post-3709424867422865843</id><published>2011-05-21T13:29:00.000-05:00</published><updated>2011-05-21T13:29:45.832-05:00</updated><title type='text'>Allergies - Is there a way to find relief?</title><content type='html'>Greetings everyone,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;People who suffer from allergies don't look forward to Spring.  Spring brings pollen, dust floating thru the air &amp; shedding of pet fur.  For many years, I too suffered from allergies except mine lasted year round.  It seemed like I was always sneezing &amp; always had to have kleenex nearby.  Every 4-6 weeks I would come down with a severe cold that would last 7-10 days at a time.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My allergies started during the summer of 1977.  This was the summer I was diagnosed with allergies, asthma &amp; migraines.  My father had died just a couple of months earlier, so I think the stress of dealing with the loss of him at the tender age of 7 took a toll on my health.  I'm not saying this to upset or have anyone feel sorry for me.  I'm saying that stress does take a toll on your health &amp; that a person needs to take control of it before it controls you.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;For many years, I got allergy shots.  Did they help?  I don't think so since my allergies continued.  It was you name it, I was allergic to it except for food.  I outgrew many of them but some still remained thru adulthood.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What does allergy science say about allergy shots?  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"The efficacy of allergen immunotherapy has been known since 1911, when Noon injected an extract of grass pollen into a person in England whose allergic symptoms coincided with the pollination of grass.2 Since then, controlled studies have shown that allergen immunotherapy is effective in patients with allergic rhinitis, allergic conjunctivitis, allergic asthma, and allergic reactions to Hymenoptera venom.3–6 Patients with one or more of these diagnoses are considered for immunotherapy if they have well-defined, clinically relevant allergic triggers that markedly affect their quality of life or daily function, and if they do not attain adequate symptom relief with avoidance measures and pharmacotherapy. &lt;b&gt;Despite proven efficacy, the exact mechanism of allergen immunotherapy remains unknown."&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;http://www.aafp.org/afp/2004/0815/p689.html&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Only in the last 3 years have I found relief from allergies.  I can hear many of you saying, what is it?  I want it!  It was only when I started taking Vitamin D3 did I find relief.  I take 10,000 IU per day.  Its not that much &amp; you're not going to OD on it.  You would have to take 150,000 IU per day for over a year to even come close to OD'ing.  The body readily absorbs this vitamin &amp; its used very quickly.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The only time that my allergies still act up if I hit the housecleaning really hard &amp; the dust starts to fly.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;GNC has 5,000 IU tablets you can buy.  Some Wal-Marts have the 2,000 IU tablets.  BUT, the best supplier is homefirst.com.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;http://homefirst.com/pro-d-5-with-probiotics.html&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You can get 5,000 IU capsules &amp; 50,000 IU capsules with probiotics.  The probiotics are needed for gut health.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The advantages of probiotics are a whole different topic for a blog entry.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;May you find the relief you need from allergies.

But is this really true?  Are mammograms really increasing the cases of breast cancer because radiation is being directed at a small, ver sensitive area?  What are thermograms &amp; are they more effective at catching breast cancer before they are seen on mammograms?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When I first started hearing about mammograms, they recommended women start getting them at the age of 30.  But as I got closer to that age, then the age was backed up to 35, then 40.  Now I think the age is 45 or 50.  Last summer, my general practitioner wanted me to get a mammogram but I suggested a thermogram instead.  Neither her or her nurse had heard of it.  They did a series of phone calls &amp; couldn't find a facility in Iowa that did those.  I did a search online &amp; found one in Des Moines.  Unfortunately, my insurance company wouldn't cover the cost anyway even tho the cost of a thermogram is a fraction of the cost of a mammogram.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Does that make any sense to anyone?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;How much radiation is in a mammogram?  Some reports are that a mammogram emits 20 times more radiation than a chest x-ray.  Radiation exposure is cumulative.  Take that amount of radiation &amp; then mutiply it times the number of mammograms a woman gets during her lifetime.  No wonder breast cancer is on its way up!  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Are mammograms really effective at preventing breast cancer?  For as many years that mammograms have been done on women, you would expect a really high number of breast cancer deaths prevented.  BUT, in actuality this number is only 10%.  10% is really low considering how the widespread use of this screening.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Where is the medical system failing women?  Good question &amp; only by a bit of research will you find the answer.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Mammogram or mammoscam?  A doctor friend of mine in a burb of Chicago says mammoscam.  I snicker everytime he says that.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So, what is an alternative to mammograms?  How about a Thermogram?  This is a fairly new procedure with just a few facilities around the country.  Screening to start watching for breast cancer starts at the age of 20.  The biggest plus about Thermograms is there is no radiation involved.  It uses heat to look for changes in the breast &amp; chest tissue to detect cancer.  Thermograms catch the cancer 10 years SOONER than mammograms.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Here is a link to more info on this procedure -&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;http://www.breastthermography.com/mammography_thermography.htm&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;http://www.thermographyofiowa.com/questions.html&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Why are mammograms preferred to thermograms?  Good question, money, thermograms are a fairly new procedure so it could be the fear of the unknown?  Hopefully as time goes on, thermograms will be more common place &amp; mammograms will be only used if thermograms are unclear.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We always hear about breast cancer awareness but what about breast cancer prevention?  Can breast cancer be prevented?  One way to prevent breast cancer is to have a high level of Vitamin D3 in your body as shown by this chart.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;http://i226.photobucket.com/albums/dd52/mopar28m/vitd10.jpg?t=1303629069&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What about environmental factors?  We hear this quit a bit when it comes causes of autism &amp; other diseases.  But what about breast cancer?  What do we put on that is close to the breast tissue that might be harmful to the breast tissue &amp; lymph nodes?  Many women are either afraid or ashamed to sweat so they put on an antipersperant.  This blocks the sweat glands &amp; makes its way into your lymph nodes.  Have you looked at the ingredients in this?  Usually aluminum is the #1 ingredients &amp; in rather large amounts.  There are conflicting studies as to whether or not there is a correlation but why risk it.  There have been studies that possibly link the use of antipersperants to Alzheimers.  Since anything you put on your skin is abosbed into the body in just a few minutes, the aluminum quickly makes its way into your system fairly quickly.  The aluminum accumulates in the lymph nodes from under arm use &amp; in the brain. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You have to some looking but there are deodorants out there that do NOT have aluminum in them.  Wal-Greens has a variety in stock.  I use this, I get it from my local Hy-Vee grocery store.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;http://www.21stcenturyvitamin.com/&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Tom's of Maine has several non-aluminum containing products.  A word of caution, if you have sensitive skin, you may want to avoid this one.  My daughter &amp; I both had problems with skin irritation.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Am I saying avoiding aluminum &amp; having a high D3 level alone will prevent breast cancer?  No, I'm just saying these are 2 things you need to look at &amp; maybe try to implement into a persons life.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I hope this blog entry has been very informative for you.

Is this true?  Are there different kinds of caramel coloring?  Are there safe kinds of caramel coloring?  Lets take a look at this controversial topic.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There is Caramel coloring 3 which is used in Soy Sauce, Teriyaki sauce, Worcestershire Sauce, etc.  Caramel coloring 4 is used in sodas.  Many of us have made caramel coloring by melting sugar in a pan on our stove tops.  My grandmother did that many times when she was making pop corn balls.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We're going to examine specifically Caramel coloring 4.  It is the process in which this coloring is made that makes it carcinogenic.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"Chemical reactions result in the formation of 2-methylimidazole and 4 methylimidazole, which in government-conducted studies caused lung, liver, or thyroid cancer or leukemia in laboratory mice or rats. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The National Toxicology Program, the division of the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences that conducted the animal studies, said that there is “clear evidence” that both 2-MI and 4-MI are animal carcinogens. Chemicals that cause cancer in animals are considered to pose cancer threats to humans. Researchers at the University of California, Davis, found significant levels of 4-MI in five brands of cola.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Federal regulations distinguish among four types of caramel coloring, two of which are produced with ammonia and two without it. CSPI wants the Food and Drug Administration to prohibit the two made with ammonia. The type used in colas and other dark soft drinks is known as Caramel IV, or ammonia sulfite process caramel. Caramel III, which is produced with ammonia but not sulfites, is sometimes used in beer, soy sauce, and other foods."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;(http://www.cspinet.org/new/201102161.html"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The caramel coloring that is used in sauces, is caramel coloring #3.  This coloring is ok.  I'm very happy about this since I use sauces in a lot of the dishes that I cook.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I know that the manufacturers of Coke, Pepsi &amp; the others who use caramel coloring are going to say that their coloring is just fine.  Of course, they are going to say that just to keep their sales up.  Changing their manufacturing process would cost thousands if not millions of dollars.  This would put a dent in their profit margin &amp; in this economy, they wouldn't want to happen.  There are natural alternatives to coloring such as beets, carrots or even a grandmothers recipe for making caramel on the stove top.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A surprise that I came across when I was doing research for this article was that caramel colorings 1 &amp; 3 may have gluten in them.  Some people are allergic to gluten.  Here is a link to those ingredients.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;http://docs.google.com/viewer?a=v&amp;q=cache:dZGu8BN_7HAJ:www.snapa.org/LinkClick.aspx?fileticket%3DXb6AxwWPtYI%253D%26tabid%3D2403+caramel+coloring+3+soy+sauce,+teriyaki+sauce,+browning+sauce&amp;hl=en&amp;gl=us&amp;pid=bl&amp;srcid=ADGEESiTPA9eRXHnNHQorLv9CxaZF7LXWc1CkI0tkiT8mTgDTQO8QD-sdQoOtlpX6FXAZVWjNn7d_U1YipJcGcUkUZgVV9Z9qSZxw307yovM0Paw0Dzbho3LyDdXPiBcvtbOHHObZ1o7&amp;sig=AHIEtbTGpGikGTGxWUMK51ss66jVF9C52w&amp;pli=1&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Many parents who have autistic children give their children a gluten free diet in hopes of helping them improve their behavior.  There are many parents that swear by this.  Personally I can't say either way since I don't have any experience with autism.  I feel for those parents who do have children that have this disability.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If you wanted an excuse to quit drinking pop, specifically the kind that has caramel coloring to it, this is the one to use.  I know that I'm going to have to change my habits.  There are some days that I work anywhere from 8-15 hours per day.  I need a little pick me up, like caffeine to keep going.  I usually get a Pepsi but no more.  I'll have to find a alternative OR give up caffeine completely &amp; put in less hours working both at my job &amp; around the house.  :)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Until next week my friends, stay safe &amp; well,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Lori&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Additional sources -&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;http://www.huffingtonpost.com/michael-f-jacobson/caramel-coloring-in-soda-_b_823639.html&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;http://www.webmd.com/food-recipes/news/20110215/group-wants-ban-on-2-types-of-caramel-coloring-in-sodas&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6621852627307570680-4586637135936862981?l=vaccinefreehealth.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://vaccinefreehealth.blogspot.com/feeds/4586637135936862981/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://vaccinefreehealth.blogspot.com/2011/04/caramel-coloring-safe-or-not.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6621852627307570680/posts/default/4586637135936862981'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6621852627307570680/posts/default/4586637135936862981'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://vaccinefreehealth.blogspot.com/2011/04/caramel-coloring-safe-or-not.html' title='Caramel coloring - Safe or not?'/><author><name>Lori</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02020193395139759551</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-OYx57iOhGhY/Tfb8ol7u1zI/AAAAAAAAABA/JmagmNaYEZA/s220/nojab.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6621852627307570680.post-5558421111958613145</id><published>2011-04-16T17:13:00.001-05:00</published><updated>2011-04-16T17:13:27.314-05:00</updated><title type='text'>To Eat or Not to Eat</title><content type='html'>Greetings,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;With the Passover season quickly approaching us, I decided to do something a little different today.  Before you jump to conclusion, I'm not Jewish, never have been &amp; never plan to be.  I have many friends that are Jewish, so I have nothing against the Jewish faith.  I just walk as Yeshua walked in the Torah.  (bible)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I want to take a look at food today, specifically pork &amp; shellfish.  Are these food we are supposed to eat?  Are there health consequences if we do eat them?  Lets answer those questions.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Very often in the news we hear about passengers becoming sick with the a sickness called the Norwalk Virus.  The ship then heads to the nearest port where passengers disembark to get the medical help they need &amp; then the ship is cleaned from top to bottom with disinfectant &amp; other cleaners to kill any bug that might exist on the ship.  Then the next set of passengers board &amp; sometimes they get sick too.  The process then starts all over again.  Where does this Norwalk virus come from?  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Shellfish are know as nature's undertakers.  They eat the dead fish that sink to the bottom of the oceans.  They also eat the manure that fish excrete.  I was in a Hy-Vee Grocery store a couple of weeks ago &amp; I saw a lobster eating a dead lobster that had died in the overnight hours.  My first thoughts was ewww but then it made sense to me WHY we aren't supposed to eat them.  Hepatitis A &amp; paralytic shellfish poisoning are 2 other conditions that are related to shellfish.  Specifically eating raw shellfish but with paralytic shellfish poisoning, this can not be killed by cooking.  These shellfish can contain micro-organisms called dinoflagellates.  These can cause numbness in the mouth, flu like symptoms &amp; some case paralysis &amp; death.  Hepatitis A can be caused by eating shellfish that is collected from water that is contaminated by sewage.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Now what about pigs?  Pigs are a popular livestock here in the state of Iowa.  You can hardly travel more than 5 miles along a country road without passing a pig farm or smelling the smell that comes from one of those farms.   I personally think its horrible that people are allowed to build pig farms but they are not required to live there so they know what kind of imposition they are putting on their neighbors.  When my husband was driving semi &amp; there wasn't grain hauling for him to do he would work in the farrow barns.  He kept leaving earlier &amp; earlier every day because the smell coming from these farrow barns would make him sick.  He would strip outside our back door &amp; then throw his clothes in the washing machine so I wouldn't have to touch them.  He would then be in the shower for over an hour trying to wash the smell away.  It would then take several washes of just soap &amp; water just to get that smell out of my washing machine.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Now, with that background info, what else do we know about pigs?  Lets take a look -&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1. A pig is a real garbage gut. It will eat anything including urine, excrement, dirt, decaying animal flesh, maggots, or decaying vegetables. They will even eat the cancerous growths off other pigs or animals.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2. The meat and fat of a pig absorbs toxins like a sponge. Their meat can be 30 times more toxic than beef or venison.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3. When eating beef or venison, it takes 8 to 9 hours to digest the meat so what little toxins are in the meat are slowly put into our system and can be filtered by the liver. But when pork is eaten, it takes only 4 hours to digest the meat. We thus get a much higher level of toxins within a shorter time.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;4. Unlike other mammals, a pig does not sweat or perspire. Perspiration is a means by which toxins are removed from the body. Since a pig does not sweat, the toxins remain within its body and in the meat.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;5. Pigs and swine are so poisonous that you can hardly kill them with strychnine or other poisons.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;6. Farmers will often pen up pigs within a rattlesnake nest because the pigs will eat the snakes, and if bitten they will not be harmed by the venom.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;7. When a pig is butchered, worms and insects take to its flesh sooner and faster than to other animal's flesh. In a few days the swine flesh is full of worms.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;8. Swine and pigs have over a dozen parasites within them, such as tapeworms, flukes, worms, and trichinae. There is no safe temperature at which pork can be cooked to ensure that all these parasites, their cysts,and eggs will be killed.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;9. Pig meat has twice as much fat as beef. A 3 oz T bone steak contains 8.5 grams of fat; a 3 oz pork chop contains 18 grams of fat. A 3 oz beef rib has 11.1 grams of fat; a 3 oz pork spare rib has 23.2 grams of fat.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;10. Cows have a complex digestive system, having four stomachs. It thus takes over 24 hours to digest their vegetarian diet causing its food to be purified of toxins. In contrast, the swine's one stomach takes only about 4 hours to digest its foul diet, turning its toxic food into flesh.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;11. The swine carries about 30 diseases which can be easily passed to humans. This is why God commanded that we are not even to touch their carcase (Leviticus 11:8).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;12. The trichinae worm of the swine is microscopically small, and once ingested can lodge itself in our intestines, muscles, spinal cord or the brain. This results in the disease trichinosis. The symptoms are sometimes lacking, but when present they are mistaken for other diseases, such as typhoid, arthritis, rheumatism, gastritis, MS, meningitis, gall bladder trouble, or acute alcoholism.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;13. The pig is so poisonous and filthy, that nature had to prepare him a sewer line or canal running down each leg with an outlet in the bottom of the foot. Out of this hole oozes pus and filth his body cannot pass into its system fast enough. Some of this pus gets into the meat of the pig.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When somebody has had a heart attack or high cholesterol, they are told by their doctor to cut back on their pork intake. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;WOW, is anybody grossed out yet?  Personally I haven't eaten pork since the Spring of 1986 when I converted to my current belief system.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Now I said earlier, that I'm not Jewish but I simply walk as Yeshua walked.  The Torah or the bible actually does give biblical guidelines on what we should &amp; should not eat.  In Leviticus 11, dietary guidelines are listed.  I have followed these for a long time.  Since heart attacks &amp; strokes are on both sides of my family &amp; all of my family are pork &amp; shell fish eaters, I'm hoping this will help buck the trend that has happened in my family for many decades.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;That closes out this week, I wish all of you a great week, til next time,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Lori&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sources -&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;http://www.facebook.com/note.php?note_id=171686606183097&amp;id=100001719962381&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;http://books.google.com/books?id=Oam5kZX5BDMC&amp;pg=PA153&amp;lpg=PA153&amp;dq=Norwalk+virus,+shellfish,+bottom+feeders&amp;source=bl&amp;ots=1F3Xb6mGBH&amp;sig=msdQ0p_u2msjdWQ5Iba80NildwY&amp;hl=en&amp;ei=WvKpTYClNe-F0QG6msH5CA&amp;sa=X&amp;oi=book_result&amp;ct=result&amp;resnum=1&amp;ved=0CBQQ6AEwAA#v=onepage&amp;q=Norwalk%20virus%2C%20shellfish%2C%20bottom%20feeders&amp;f=false&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;http://treatment-for.info/norwalk-agent-virus-infection.html&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;http://www.emedicinehealth.com/hepatitis_a/article_em.htm&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6621852627307570680-5558421111958613145?l=vaccinefreehealth.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://vaccinefreehealth.blogspot.com/feeds/5558421111958613145/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://vaccinefreehealth.blogspot.com/2011/04/to-eat-or-not-to-eat.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6621852627307570680/posts/default/5558421111958613145'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6621852627307570680/posts/default/5558421111958613145'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://vaccinefreehealth.blogspot.com/2011/04/to-eat-or-not-to-eat.html' title='To Eat or Not to Eat'/><author><name>Lori</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02020193395139759551</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-OYx57iOhGhY/Tfb8ol7u1zI/AAAAAAAAABA/JmagmNaYEZA/s220/nojab.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6621852627307570680.post-789778109313298570</id><published>2011-04-10T20:04:00.001-05:00</published><updated>2011-04-10T20:12:44.560-05:00</updated><title type='text'>University of Maryland is tracking the radiation plume</title><content type='html'>Greetings friends,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As promised, I told you I would update up you on any radiation reports.

These are all items that a newborn is put thru upon birth.  Are they really necessary?  Is there a way to "opt" out?  As a mom, I have to wonder why parents put their kids thru all of that &amp; then wonder why they scream bloody murder when they need to get a simple blood test.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A friend of my daughter is being induced this next week.  She is having a daughter &amp; is excited to be able to finally hold her.  My daughter educated her friend about how dangerous vaccines are, what is in them &amp; how to avoid them.  Out of the mouths of babes, she really does listen when I'm telling her about their dangers &amp; when I'm listening to webinars.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My daughters friend has given instructions to everyone who attending the birth that if anyone gets near her baby with a needle to "punch them".  She has decided that NO vaccines will be given to her baby.  Ahh.....another child saved.  But what about the Vitamin K shot?  Why is this given &amp; is it really necessary?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Vitamin K shot has been administered to newborns since the 60s.  This was a time when mothers were drugged to the point where they couldn't help in the birth of their own children.  The umbilical cord was cut right after birth.  Sometimes if the birth was going quickly enough, vacuum extraction was used to pull the baby out.  This would cause bruising &amp; use up what little reserves the baby had to keep from bleeding to death.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Lets fast forward to the present day.  Many moms are opting for natural births.  They are awake &amp; aware for the birth of their children.  Vacuum extraction &amp; forceps are rare &amp; far between.  Many doctors have realized the importance of waiting until the cord stops "pulsing" before clamping it &amp; cutting it.  The cutting of the umbilical cord can reduce the blood volume of the baby by almost 40%.  No wonder they had problems with bleeding, they didn't have all of their blood volume.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I know what some of you are thinking.  Its a vitamin shot.  It should be safe right?  Well, unfortunatley, the Vitamin K shot has some of the same toxins that vaccines have.  The Vitamin K shot has been linked to many cancers that are seen in kids.  Lets look at the statistics of the Vitamin K shot &amp; childhood cancers.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"In 1970, a study was undertaken to see what the risk factors were for childhood cancers. 16,193 babies were studied who had all been born in April 1970. 99 children developed cancer by the age of 10 in the control group and 33 children in the other group. The researchers found that when babies had received vitamin K in the first week of life, their risk of cancer increased three fold. They had not been looking at vitamin K specifically and did not expect to see such an association, so they approached Roche Pharmaceuticals, asking them to do a further trial. They initially refused, until stories about vitamin K and cancer forced them into a corner, and, determined to prove the safety of their product, they began a new study. &lt;br /&gt;588 healthy children and 195 children with cancer were studied. All of these children had been born at one of two hospitals in Bristol. One hospital used oral vitamin K drops and the other used the injection. The researchers found a two fold increase in childhood Leukaemia among those who had received the injection and stated that as many as 980 cases of childhood Leukaemia were caused by the vitamin K injection every year in the UK alone. &lt;br /&gt;Newer studies have been done as recently as 1998 which seem to confirm this. Two studies in the British Medical Journal in that year found that there was a two fold risk of Leukaemia among 1-6 year old’s who had been given the injection at birth, and that there was a ‘significant risk’ of all cancers after the shot."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;http://www.vaccineriskawareness.com/Vitamin-K-Does-Your-Baby-Really-Need-It-&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Of course, drug companies want to deny any link between shots &amp; cancer.  BUT, we need to look at the rise in childhood cancer over the years.  How many children are being diagnosed each year with cancer that could have prevented IF they hadn't been given the Vitamin K shot &amp; the mass of other vaccines they are given from birth until they have the choice over their own medical decisions.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What warnings does the insert give that comes with the shot?  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"The injectable form of vitamin K can rarely cause severe (sometimes fatal) allergic reactions when given by injection into a muscle or vein. Therefore, vitamin K should be injected into a muscle or vein only when it cannot be given by injection under the skin or taken by mouth, or when your doctor has judged that the benefit is greater than the risk. Seek immediate medical attention if you experience symptoms of an allergic reaction such as rash, itching, swelling, dizziness, or trouble breathing."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Of course, the doctor is always going to say the risk outweighs the benefit.  Neither one of my kids had the shot when they were born.  My son was circumsized on the 8th day.  Circumcision is the #1 reason why many parents go ahead &amp; have their sons given the Vitamin K shot when they should be asking questions.  The 8th day is when Vitamin K levels are maxed out.  This also makes sense since the scriptures tell us that we should circumsize our sons on the 8th. day. (Gen. 17)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Another warning from the insert -&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"Benzyl alcohol as a preservative in Bacteriostatic Sodium Chloride Injection has been associated with toxicity in newborns. Data are unavailable on the toxicity of other preservatives in this age group. There is no evidence to suggest that the small amount of benzyl alcohol contained in AquaMEPHYTON, when used as recommended, is associated with toxicity."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;http://web.archive.org/web/20070213093306/http://www.fda.gov/medwatch/SAFETY/2003/03Feb_PI/AquaMEPHYTON_PI.pdf&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If Benzyl alcohol is associated with toxicity in newborns then WHY is it given routinely?  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;While I was doing research for this blog entry, I came across that it may be beneficial for pregnant moms to take Vitamin K during the last trimester.  The Vitamin K does pass the placenta but it doesn't pass as easily thru the placenta as it does thru breastmilk.  You get Vitamin K from green leafy vegetables.  Here is a list of the top 10 foods for Vitamin K.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;http://vitamins.ygoy.com/2011/02/25/top-10-food-sources-of-vitamin-k/&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Since the Vitamin K shot isn't required by law to attend a daycare, preschool or a public shool system you shouldn't need a waiver BUT make sure you have it in your birth plan that you don't want, if you so choose, that you don't want the Vitamin K shot, Hep. B shot, eye drops, etc.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A side note to expectant moms, be sure that someone stays with the baby at all times that knows your wishes.  Don't allow the baby to go to the nursery alone because even tho you have it in your birth plan, it may be done as routinely without a 2nd thought.  Some pediatricians will try to hassle you into signing papers that you are putting your child at risk if you don't vaccinate.  Don't sign it!  You are NOT putting your child at risk, just the opposite.  If the pediatrician gives you that, just walk out &amp; look for another doctor that will let you opt out of vaccinating.  (see my entry on exemptions)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As always, do your own research.  You need to make your own decisions regarding your own medical health.  I'm not here to tell you what you need to do but I'm here to inform. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Stay safe &amp; well my friends, until next time,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Lori&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My sources for this blog entry -&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;http://www.naturalnews.com/031198_psychiatry_teens.html&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;http://www.naturalnews.com/026635_vitamin_K_disease_blood.html&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;http://www.vaccineriskawareness.com/Vitamin-K-Does-Your-Baby-Really-Need-It-&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;http://www.babble.com/baby/health-and-safety/vitamin-k-for-newborns-eye-ointment-baby-shots/&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;http://www.thebabybond.com/VitaminKinjectORnot.html&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;http://www.gentlebirth.org/archives/vitktop.html&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;http://www.vaclib.org/chapter/inserts.htm#vitK&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6621852627307570680-2950965711878138942?l=vaccinefreehealth.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://vaccinefreehealth.blogspot.com/feeds/2950965711878138942/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://vaccinefreehealth.blogspot.com/2011/04/vitamin-k-shot-why-is-it-given.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6621852627307570680/posts/default/2950965711878138942'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6621852627307570680/posts/default/2950965711878138942'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://vaccinefreehealth.blogspot.com/2011/04/vitamin-k-shot-why-is-it-given.html' title='Vitamin K Shot - Why is it given?'/><author><name>Lori</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02020193395139759551</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-OYx57iOhGhY/Tfb8ol7u1zI/AAAAAAAAABA/JmagmNaYEZA/s220/nojab.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6621852627307570680.post-6697429406670997722</id><published>2011-04-08T00:55:00.000-05:00</published><updated>2011-04-08T00:55:55.760-05:00</updated><title type='text'>We are still not being told the whole story</title><content type='html'>Greetings,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I've been watching the situation in Japan with mixed emotions.  Watchful, hopeful &amp; worrying.  I worry about the MOX fuel in reactor #3.  This reactor has enough plutonium to kill this world 21,000 times over.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Radioactive Iodine dissipates after a few days.  Cesium has a half life of 30 years.  This means it will take 30 years just to break down by 50%.  It will take over 2 centuries to dissipate to less than 1%.  What kind of future are we leaving for our grandchildrens grandchildren?  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Here is a good article on this from naturalnews.com&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;http://www.naturalnews.com/031992_radioactive_cesium.html&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Shortly after the disaster in Japan, everyone was worried about getting Potassium Iodide.  I'll admit, I was worried about this too &amp; did some looking online to find some.  I found some sellers were taking advantage of the situation by selling a 14 days supply for almost $2,000.  They usually sell for less than $20.  Talk about taking advantage of the situation.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We decided to take a more natural approach &amp; get Sea Kelp.  We got ours from Puritan's Pride.  They offered us a great deal.  We bought 5 bottles &amp; got 7 free.  We received our shipment the same week we ordered.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;http://www.puritan.com/food-supplements-004/sea-kelp-000623?searchterm=Sea%20Kelp&amp;rdcnt=1&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As an avid listener of the Robert Scott Bell show (http://www.robertscottbell.com/),he says to be sure to take Selenium with it so that the body can use it more effectively.  We take 400 mcg/day.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I've noticed another advantage with taking Sea Kelp, I have more energy.  A great thing, especially this time of year.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Please keep in mind that Dr. Tenpenny said to Prepare but don't over react.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Do your research, don't take my word for it.  I've spent many hours reading news articles about this.  I've spent time in prayer &amp; meditation wondering what is best to help protect my family.  We've chosen this path, may you find a path that is best for you also.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Til Next Time,&lt;br /&gt;Lori&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6621852627307570680-6697429406670997722?l=vaccinefreehealth.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://vaccinefreehealth.blogspot.com/feeds/6697429406670997722/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://vaccinefreehealth.blogspot.com/2011/04/we-are-still-not-being-told-whole-story.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6621852627307570680/posts/default/6697429406670997722'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6621852627307570680/posts/default/6697429406670997722'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://vaccinefreehealth.blogspot.com/2011/04/we-are-still-not-being-told-whole-story.html' title='We are still not being told the whole story'/><author><name>Lori</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02020193395139759551</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-OYx57iOhGhY/Tfb8ol7u1zI/AAAAAAAAABA/JmagmNaYEZA/s220/nojab.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6621852627307570680.post-2692764602872518897</id><published>2011-03-17T22:10:00.000-05:00</published><updated>2011-03-17T22:10:20.454-05:00</updated><title type='text'>Guest Blog Entry by Dr. Sherri Tenpenny -  Prepare but don't overreact</title><content type='html'>http://tenpennyimc.com/Blog/post/2011/03/17/Prepare-but-dont-overreact.aspx&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;NaturalNews.com  is putting out a lot of good information about the uses of iodine and disaster planning. I'm working on an article about iodine that will be done soon. In the mean time, I wanted to share a few important points. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Iodine chemistry, iodine/thyroid issues are really complex. When it is ingested, it is rapidly absorbed in the stomach and duodenum. Iodate, widely used in salt iodization, is reduced in the gut and absorbed as iodide. Iodine doesn't stay in the blood stream for very long; under normal circumstances, it has either been absorbed into tissues or eliminated by the kidneys in less than 12 hours. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In my experience, you won't know how you will respond to iodine until you start taking it. In some, iodine is truly the "cure" to a long list of ailments. In others, it can cause a lot of problems and side effects. Iodine can correct Hashimoto's thyroiditis in some; in others, especially those who are low in selenium, it can *cause* Hashimoto's disease (an autoimmune inflammation of the thyroid). Given the necessity of iodine for life, it is not clear why some people react to iodine in salt or seafood. Side effects can include gastrointestinal symptoms (nausea, epigastric pain, and diarrhea), significant total-body rash, and something called "iodide fever". Toxic reactions generally require large doses, but some people are very sensitive and even small doses can cause a reaction. For patients on thyroid medications, taking iodine can effect their required dosage -- they may require less...or more. In almost everyone, the TSH will go up while on iodine, as explained below.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It takes 150 micrograms per day to prevent a goiter, but iodine is also required for the rest of the body requires more. For example, 3000 mcg/day (3mg) is necessary to keep breasts healthy and it has been recommended that approximately 12,000 mcg/day (12mg/d) is needed to keep the entire body healthy. The Estimated Average Requirement (EAR) for iodine is the amount expected to meet the needs of 50% of people in a specific age group, based on a review of the medical/scientific literature. The government also suggests something called the UL, the Upper Limit dose that most healthy people can tolerate without a side effect. Here is a table that gives an idea of the recommended amounts for you and your children. Up to 10 times these amounts, if added gradually, will not cause a problem. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Iodine is necessary for health of many organs including the pancreas, liver, and mucosa of gastric, small, and large intestine, nasopharynx, choroid plexus and the ciliary body of the eye, the skin, and the following glands: saliva, lacrimal (tear ducts) and both lactating and non-lactating mammary glands. TSH (thyroid stimulating hormone) increases the activity of the Sodium-Iodine Symporter (NIS) that drives iodine into the thyroid and into the cells of the other organs. That is the reason that the TSH blood levels increase when patients are taking iodine -- the TSH is needed to drive iodine into the cells.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Since many, if not most, people in the US and Canada are at least mildly iodine deficient, it is necessary to gradually increase the amount of iodine in your diet or as supplementation to avoid complications of suddenly introducing large amounts into your diet. Rapid addition of iodine can cause a list of side effects including thyroid suppression, palpitations, and skin rashes. Interestingly, a sudden increase in iodine intake may be linked to the development of a goiter, which is paradoxical since most goiters are linked to iodine deficiency.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The best way to be proactive is to start adding foods into your diet that are very high in iodine. Here’s a short list:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&gt; Kelp (sea vegetable) – ¼ ounce, 415.00 mcg&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&gt; Yogurt (low-fat) – 1 cup, 87.22 mcg&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&gt; Cow’s milk (2%) – 1 cup, 58.56 mcg&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&gt; Egg (whole, boiled) – 1 each, 23.76 mcg&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&gt; Sardines and mackerel, fish with the highest iodine concentrations have approximately 250 µg of iodine/100 g&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&gt; Strawberries – 1 cup, 12.96 mcg&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&gt; Seaweed is particularly rich in iodine: that is, concentrations are 100-1000 times higher than in fish.  Kombu, a commonly consumed seaweed, contains approximately 130,000 µg of iodine/100 g&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Other foods with small amounts iodine include Miso soup, spirulina, chlorella, brassica vegetables, beans and lentils. Cod liver oil and olive oil have vitamin A and D, both important for overall health. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When taking iodine supplements, it is important to also take the mineral selenium (100-200mcg/day). Selenium interacts uniquely with iodine. It has antioxidant properties and protects the thyroid during the synthesis of thyroid hormones. It is also important for both activation and inactivation of thyroid hormone at the cellular level.  Increasing iodine foods and/or adding supplments slowly is a reasonable response to the current conditions. Potassium iodide, whose chemical formula is KI, is the recommended form of iodine to take in the event of radiation exposure because it saturates the thyroid gland. Once saturated, the thyroid – and the body – cannot absorb radioactive iodine if the tissues are saturated with healthy iodine. Another form of iodine, potassium iodate, is second option. Potassium iodate includes one molecule of oxygen that not only extends the product's shelf life, but helps to eliminate the bitter taste of potassium iodide. While KI has been the most studied, both types of the tablets can provide protection.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;While iodine is sold primarily as a supplement, it deserves respect. Consuming anything other than small quantities should be done under the supervision of a physician or healthcare provider familiar with its chemical quirks. This is especially true if you are taking thyroid medication or have other thyroid problems. Taking massive dosages of iodine, such as the government- recommended 130 mg/day in the event of a radiation exposure, is definitely not necessary, unless you are right next to the reactor. Massive doses should be reserved for only extreme and confirmed exposures. In fact, a study in the New England Journal of Medicine done to determine the dose of KI in the event of a nuclear accident or fallout have shown that a single dose of 30 mg of iodine will suppress the uptake of radioactive iodine to less than 1.5% within 24 hr, Daily doses of 15 mg will maintain uptake of radioactive iodine below 2%. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It is always good to be prepared. In this instance, it is really important to not overreact.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6621852627307570680-2692764602872518897?l=vaccinefreehealth.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://vaccinefreehealth.blogspot.com/feeds/2692764602872518897/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://vaccinefreehealth.blogspot.com/2011/03/guest-blog-entry-by-dr-sherri-tenpenny.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6621852627307570680/posts/default/2692764602872518897'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6621852627307570680/posts/default/2692764602872518897'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://vaccinefreehealth.blogspot.com/2011/03/guest-blog-entry-by-dr-sherri-tenpenny.html' title='Guest Blog Entry by Dr. Sherri Tenpenny -  Prepare but don&apos;t overreact'/><author><name>Lori</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02020193395139759551</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-OYx57iOhGhY/Tfb8ol7u1zI/AAAAAAAAABA/JmagmNaYEZA/s220/nojab.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6621852627307570680.post-2023220245796799575</id><published>2011-03-16T23:21:00.000-05:00</published><updated>2011-03-16T23:21:22.701-05:00</updated><title type='text'>Turning down my stress level a bit tonight</title><content type='html'>Greetings to everyone,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I had a wonderful conversation with Dr. Mayer Eisenstein &amp; his wife tonight.

He has sent us some extremely disturbing information that seems to indicate the situation with the reactors in Japan is far, far worse than what the conventional media is describing. We are not releasing this individual's name for obvious reasons (he's still in Tokyo and virtually unreachable), but he is an individual who is known to me personally and with whom I have spent a considerable number of hours over a period of two years. He is a very high-integrity individual and someone who is also extremely well connected in the world of advanced medicine.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In an email sent from Tokyo, this individual explains:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"...nuclear reactors use bundles of enriched uranium packed into stainless steel fuel rods in order to generate the heat that drives the turbines. You need to keep these bundles of pins cool otherwise they melt or burst.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Now, it seems the Fukushima power plant pulled spent fuel bundles (a collection of fuel rods) and stored them on site rather than shipping them to another location. Speculation is that in addition to the fires that are damaging the working reactor, these storage areas of their spent fuel bundles could [now] be on fire. This vastly compounds the problem of any meltdown, as this spent fuel will add to the contamination [because] it is extremely toxic. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In other words, as well as dealing with a potential meltdown, you also have the toxic products from the depleted fuel pins adding to the pollution. This is extraordinarily bad. The spent fuel bundles should have been relocated away from the reactor core a long, long time ago. Given the earthquake realities of Japan, these reactor building were basically dirty bombs waiting to be set off by a [natural] disaster."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I want to thank this individual for his continued reporting from Tokyo and assure him that if he chooses to send more information to NaturalNews, we will of course continue to protect his anonymity.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Nuclear plant becomes dirty bomb waiting to go off&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The upshot of his assessment of the situation is that the Fukushima power plant is now a "dirty bomb" waiting to happen. And it's on fire right now. Radiation levels are rising so rapidly that it's not even safe to work near the plant. This is very rapidly headed into a situation where suicidal volunteers are going to have to "rush in" and do some work on the plant, spend only a few minutes there, then evacuate as quickly as possible. And they'll still get cancer.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This is exactly what happened in Chernobyl following the accident there in 1987. Hundreds of brave volunteers basically committed suicide in order to erect the containment vessel over the melted-down reactor and thereby prevent further radiation from escaping directly into the environment.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As Wikipedia explains (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cherno...):&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"The worst of the radioactive debris was collected inside what was left of the reactor, much of it shoveled in by liquidators wearing heavy protective gear (dubbed "bio-robots" by the military); these workers could only spend a maximum of 40 seconds at a time working on the rooftops of the surrounding buildings because of the extremely high doses of radiation given off by the blocks of graphite and other debris. The reactor itself was covered with bags containing sand, lead, and boric acid dropped from helicopters (some 5,000 metric tons during the week following the accident). By December 1986 a large concrete sarcophagus had been erected, to seal off the reactor and its contents. Many of the vehicles used by the "liquidators" remain parked in a field in the Chernobyl area to this day, most giving off doses of 10-30 R/h (0.7-2 uA/kg) over 25 years after the disaster."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Far worse than a terrorism attack&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This could be very similar to what we're headed toward in Japan if the people there don't get this situation under control very quickly. Terrorists couldn't have carried out a more deadly disaster than what the "scientific" nuclear power industry has now delivered to the people of Japan.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In the name of scientific progress, the Japanese people are now threatened with the worst kind of death: Death by radiation poisoning -- a slow, suffering breakdown of cellular function at every level. And sadly, Japan has already suffered through a similar scenario near the end of World War II when the United States of America dropped atomic bombs on the civilian Japanese population... twice!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What frightens me in all this is the choice of words from our source who describes the Fukushima site as a "dirty bomb" just waiting to go off. There's a lesson in all this, of course: When you play God with the planet, it might be wise to follow the precautionary principle more closely. This nuclear catastrophe is a mirror image of what we're likely to see in the future of agriculture due to GMOs (genetically engineered seeds). GE seeds are the "genetic dirty bombs" of agriculture, and they too could devastate human civilization in much the same way that nuclear power now threatens the very survival of an entire nation.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But too many "scientists" are infinitely arrogant, it seems, and they rarely consider the consequences of their dangerous actions. On all the issues that matter -- GMOs and seeds, synthetic chemicals, cell phone radiation, nuclear power, fluoride in the water, mercury fillings and much more -- "science" has delivered suffering and death, not lasting progress. Thanks to these scientists who convince governments to take on nuclear power, GMOs, vaccines or pharmaceuticals, our world is now facing a multi-faceted life extinction crisis that threatens the very future of life on our planet. And Bill Gates thinks the answer is "more vaccines!" (Insane? You betcha...)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The lessons to be learned from Fukushima are the same lessons humanity needs to learn on many other fronts: Don't think you are so brilliant that you can outsmart Mother Nature and the laws of cause and effect. "Science" is no panacea. Science makes too many promises that it cannot keep (Improved crop yields! Clean energy! Amazing vaccines!), and when nations embrace these so-called "scientific" solutions, ultimately they only receive death, fear and financial destruction.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;For instance, the pharmaceutical industry has done to the U.S. economy what the Fukushima power plant is about to do to Japan. The promises we were given in the name of science and medicine have all blown up in our faces, leaving only a desolate landscape of destruction and misery in their wake.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It is time we all began to seriously question our "faith" in the false promises of science and instead started to look at more holistic and humble solutions for sustainable life on our planet.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Amish way of life, for example, may not look high-tech and cool, but it doesn't explode in your face and irradiate your whole country, either. And the Amish do just fine without vaccines, too (and they have near-zero rates of autism, by the way).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Learn more: http://www.naturalnews.com/031718_nuclear_power_dirty_bomb.html#ixzz1GjdYFCFi&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6621852627307570680-7708556169785098752?l=vaccinefreehealth.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://vaccinefreehealth.blogspot.com/feeds/7708556169785098752/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://vaccinefreehealth.blogspot.com/2011/03/just-in-from-naturalnewscom-info-from.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6621852627307570680/posts/default/7708556169785098752'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6621852627307570680/posts/default/7708556169785098752'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://vaccinefreehealth.blogspot.com/2011/03/just-in-from-naturalnewscom-info-from.html' title='Just in from NaturalNews.com - Info from a person in Tokyo'/><author><name>Lori</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02020193395139759551</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-OYx57iOhGhY/Tfb8ol7u1zI/AAAAAAAAABA/JmagmNaYEZA/s220/nojab.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6621852627307570680.post-6300281895663385372</id><published>2011-03-15T19:29:00.000-05:00</published><updated>2011-03-15T19:29:26.344-05:00</updated><title type='text'>Update on radiation</title><content type='html'>Things in Japan are going from bad to worse.  We hear on mainstream media that the reactors may be going thru a meltdown but they don't tell you that they have had a melt down. I read some mainstream media but mainly watch alternative news sites to get the true story". Even there I'm getting mixed stories but some of the stories outnumber the others - at least one reactor has had a meltdown.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This link shows the possible path of the radiation cloud.

This blog has readers in the Japan area.  Be sure to say a prayer for our fellow man in the area.  This is the strongest quake on record.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But lets talk about a very serious subject regarding this quake.  As many of you have heard, their nuclear power plant is having problems with their cooling system.  One reactor has already melted down &amp; the others are getting way too hot.  Does anyone remember Chernobyl?  Thousands had to be evacuated &amp; the land to this day it is not inhabitable.  If this radiation leaks beyond the boundaries of the containment chamber, effects of that meltdown will be felt here in the U.S.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Here is a link to a map from a forum that I monitor &amp; get info from quite often.  It was made by a person using data from the Chernobyl meltdown &amp; fallout to calculate the fallout from this potential manmade disaster.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;http://img847.imageshack.us/img847/438/fallout.jpg&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Am I saying this map is accurate?  No......BUT we should be aware of the fact that we may see effects from this nuclear plant.  Anything above 500 rads is a death sentence.  Exposure needs to be below 200 rads to guarantee survival.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;0-50 rads - No obvious short-term effects&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;80-120 rads - You have a 10% chance of vomiting and experiencing nausea for a few days&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;130 -170 rads - You have a 25% chance of vomiting and contracting other symptoms&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;180-220 rads - You have a 50% chance of vomiting and having other severe physical effects&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;270-330 rads - 20% chance of death in 6 weeks, or you will recover in a few months.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;400-500 rads - 50% chance of death&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;550-750 rads - Nausea within a few hours ; no survivors&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&gt; 1000 rads - immediate incapacitation and death within a week or less.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;http://www.solarstorms.org/Sradiation.html&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The map doesn't go beyond the boundaries of the Rockies. So I don't know if it will continue east or not.  Lets just pray that this doesn't happen at all!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I will continue to monitor this &amp; will update as I know anything.  This entry is in no way, shape or form to instill fear, hopelessness or panic.  I want to inform, that has always been my intention.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Stay safe &amp; well my friends, til next time.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Lori&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6621852627307570680-5469761696309990508?l=vaccinefreehealth.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://vaccinefreehealth.blogspot.com/feeds/5469761696309990508/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://vaccinefreehealth.blogspot.com/2011/03/switching-gears-today.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6621852627307570680/posts/default/5469761696309990508'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6621852627307570680/posts/default/5469761696309990508'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://vaccinefreehealth.blogspot.com/2011/03/switching-gears-today.html' title='Switching gears today'/><author><name>Lori</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02020193395139759551</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-OYx57iOhGhY/Tfb8ol7u1zI/AAAAAAAAABA/JmagmNaYEZA/s220/nojab.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6621852627307570680.post-3562492823442956866</id><published>2011-03-05T13:15:00.002-06:00</published><updated>2011-03-05T13:19:52.748-06:00</updated><title type='text'>An email I sent to Bill Gates today</title><content type='html'>For those of you who watch CNN, Bill Gates was on there recently saying that children who don't get vaccinated end up dead.  Talk about fear mongering!  I've been contemplating this email for quite a while &amp; decided to send it out today.  What I sent is below.  Enjoy!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Dear Mr. Gates,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I watched with GREAT humor your interview on CNN.  Do you realize how STUPID you sound by saying children who don't get vaccinated end up dead?  Do you realize how many THOUSANDS of kids there are that have grown to adulthood that have NOT been vaccinated?  And their children are NOT vaccinated &amp; are healthy just as well?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Why don't you fund a study - study the health of vaccinated children vs. the health of unvaccinated children?  The rate of autism in unvaccinated children vs. the rate of austim in vaccinated children?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Amish are the smoking gun.  They don't do vaccines &amp; there is NO autism in their society.  There is a doctor in Chicago, 35,000 patients, no autism.  Why??  Because he does NOT vaccinate.  Statistically, there should be at least 200.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A little known paper was published not to long after Dr. Wakefields work was smeared by big pharma.  A CDC sponsored study showed the same results as Dr. Wakefield.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;http://www.jabs.org.uk/pages/yazbak%20on%20cdc%20study.pdf&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Use your fortune for good other than causing more death &amp; sickness to children by vaccines.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Good Day Mr. Gates, be sure to get your flu shot.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Lori Harvey&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;For those of you who haven't seen the interview, you can see it at this link.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;http://articles.mercola.com/sites/articles/archive/2011/03/05/wikileaks-exposes-unholy-alliance-of-us-government-bill-gates-and-monsanto.aspx&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6621852627307570680-3562492823442956866?l=vaccinefreehealth.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://vaccinefreehealth.blogspot.com/feeds/3562492823442956866/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://vaccinefreehealth.blogspot.com/2011/03/email-i-sent-to-bill-gates-today.html#comment-form' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6621852627307570680/posts/default/3562492823442956866'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6621852627307570680/posts/default/3562492823442956866'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://vaccinefreehealth.blogspot.com/2011/03/email-i-sent-to-bill-gates-today.html' title='An email I sent to Bill Gates today'/><author><name>Lori</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02020193395139759551</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-OYx57iOhGhY/Tfb8ol7u1zI/AAAAAAAAABA/JmagmNaYEZA/s220/nojab.jpg'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6621852627307570680.post-5550751783590662147</id><published>2011-02-26T00:17:00.000-06:00</published><updated>2011-02-26T00:17:23.359-06:00</updated><title type='text'>Email address for this blog</title><content type='html'>Greetings,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I've decided that this blog needs its own email address.

Many states have philosophical exemptions, religious or just medical exemptions.  Medical exemptions can be over ruled by another doctor with a simple exam.  Philosophical exemptions can be over ruled by our government at a drop of a hat.  Religious exemptions are the way to go since Freedom of Religion is guaranteed by a document called the Constitution of the United States.  You will need to fill out this paperwork in front of a Notary Public.  They'll check your ID &amp; then sign where they need to.  Present this paperwork to your daycare center.  They will need to keep a copy on their record even after your child has left their care so you will need another copy for when your child starts school.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;http://www.vaclib.org/exemption.htm&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Currently, New Jersey is trying to pass legislation that will outlaw religious exemptions.  If you live in that state, please write your lawmakers &amp; tell them to keep your Freedom of Religion in place.  Below is a link to a slideshow that I did last fall in Illinois.  About 1/3 of the way thru it talks about What Does the bible say about vaccines?  Feel free to use that info to back up your claims about it being against your religion to get vaccines.  You do NOT have to be part of a church that believes vaccines are wrong.  You can have a personal religious belief that vaccines are against scripture.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;http://208.68.48.169/feast2010/2010_PDF_Presentations/vac1.pdf&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This next link shows a map of the U.S. &amp; which states allow what exemptions.  The worst states to live in for this purpose are West Virginia &amp; Mississippi.  Mississippi doesn't allow for religious exemptions as they think its against the constitution to have a religious exemption.  (I still don't understand that one)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;http://i226.photobucket.com/albums/dd52/mopar28m/mt5.jpg&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I'm sure many of you are now wondering, what doctors in the U.S. will go along with not vaccinating or maybe an alternative schedule.  They are out there!  The link below shows which doctors are the ones to go with for this purpose.  You could also seek care from a homeopath, naturalpath, chiropracter &amp; an Osteopath.  The whole purpose of well baby or well child visits is for vaccinations!

A toy?  Raggedy Ann has been around for over 95 years &amp; is closely tied to the small pox vaccine &amp; anti-vaccine movement.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Marcelle Gruelle in 1915 at the tender age of 13 was given the small pox vaccine at school without her parents consent.  During this time period many who were given the small pox vaccine didn't survive the procedure.  The wound that was created by the small pox vaccine would become infected.  With sanitation being low at this point in our history, the victims of this barbaric procedure would die from infection.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Lets go back &amp; look at the humble beginnings of this doll that is still popular today.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Marcella went up to her grandmothers attic one day when she was visiting.  She found an old faceless rag doll.  She took it down to her father &amp; asked him if she could have it.  He put 2 black eyes &amp; the triangle nose on its face that we still see today.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When Mr. Gruelle's only child came down sick after getting the small pox vaccine, she was bedridden, he would entertain her with stories about Raggedy Ann.  Shortly before Marcella died, her muscles became "limp" like a rag doll.  After Marcella's death, Raggedy Ann became a symbol for the anti-vaccine movement.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;After Marcella died, 7 doctors came &amp; examined her.  6 said the cause of her death was the small pox vaccine.  The 7th doctor was the head of the school board &amp; a big supporter of vaccines.  He was known to vaccinate children over &amp; over again for the same diseases.  This doctor wouldn't say if her death was caused by the vaccine or not.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;By 1918, Mr. Gruelle published his first book about Raggedy Ann.  In 1920, Raggedy Andy made his debut in the volumes.  These 2 events put Mr. Gruelle on the track for a well known author &amp; illustrator.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I still have my Raggedy Ann &amp; Andy dolls from my childhood.  Now that I know the story behind this classic doll, I'm glad I held onto them.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Until next week my friends, have a great week.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Lori&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;P.S.

Soon after, we saw visions on the evening news how the gulf was being affected, not only sealife but also animals that lived on the shore &amp; the people who made their living off the gulf.  BP &amp; the government quickly set up a trust fund to help those residents to recoup their losses due to the loss of income since the gulf food wasn't edible &amp; the loss of tourism because the tourists were scared away from the gulf area.  Unfortunately red tape is making it almost impossible for those affected to coup their losses.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But, what else happened in the gulf during this time?  We heard about corexit being dumped into the gulf to take care of the oil.  What was "eating" the oil?  There is an algae that eats oil but its not found in the gulf area.  So what caused the oil to "disappear"?  The answer is a scary one - programmed synthetic bacteria.  This bacteria was programmed to "eat" the oil.  This bacteria is also eating steel.  It found its way into the stream that circulates around the world &amp; is now eating the Titanic.  The story about the Titanic being eaten away was on the NBC nightly news just a few weeks ago.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Now the company, Synthetic Genomics, has teamed up with Novartis to synthetically make vaccines to cut down on vaccine production time.  The "vaccine" will be programmed for specific illnesses &amp; diseases.  Wait a minute, the synthetic bacteria was programmed just to eat the oil in the gulf but is now eating away steel &amp; now they want to inject this synthetic bacteria into people with the goal that it will kill of bugs quicker?  Am I the only one that sees the danger in this?  What is going to keep this bug from attacking the good bacteria in our bodies?  What happens if we take probiotics?  Will this synthetic vaccine attack that?  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This is a very scary prospect.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Now keep in mind, a computer will be "programming" these vaccines.  Those of us who spend any time on the internet know that our computers can get viruses, spyware, adware &amp; Malware from surfing the internet.  What will keep these vaccines from getting a "virus" that will cause the bug to hiccup or cause it to do things that it shouldn't be doing?  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As I was listening to Mary Tocco last Saturday afternoon on Republic Broadcasting from 2-4 pm, she had an expert on there that was talking about a vaccine chip being injected into a person that would release a vaccine over a period of time, years perhaps.  This vaccine chip would destroy the immune system so that you would have to rely on vaccines &amp; other medicines for the rest of your life in order to remain well.  Big pharma wants us to be dependent on them from cradle to grave.  This becomes more apparent every day.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;October 7th. of last year Synthetic Genomics &amp; Novartis signed a deal to apply synthetic engineering to the development of vaccines.  Synthetic Genomics would have a seed bank that would be the starter seeds for the basis of vaccines every year.  Currently, vaccine developers rely on the WHO to tell them which strain of flu is going to be circulating the coming winter.  (How do they know this??)  Then vaccine developers go into production of producing the flu vaccine that are sold to the public.  With a seed bank, this production time would be cut by 2 months.  Reverse vaccinology is genomics way of finding "new" targets for vaccines than traditional methods.  The thought behind this is that universal vaccines could be developed to target a broader ranger of illnesses.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Novartis is the 5th largest vaccine developer &amp; the 2nd largest supplier of vaccines to the U.S.  This will most likely push them to the top.  Big pharma has an of  income of 1 BILLION a year.  Synthetic vaccines with a much shorter development time will push this income even higher.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I have to wonder about the preservatives that will be used in these vaccines that will support these "synthetic" vaccines for a longer shelf life.  Will they include the same preservatives that we see today. (ex. thimerosal, aluminum, formaldehyde, antifreeze, etc.)  Or will there be even more toxic toxins in them?  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I will continue to keep an eye on this developing story.  This could lead to some very scary outcomes for everyone who has bought into the fallacy that health comes from a needle.  Please pass this story onto others, link to it, tell others when you are talking in everyday life.  I'm sure there is much more going on than what we are hearing about in the mainstream media &amp; on the internet.  Even the most seasoned researchers can't find the most elusive stories.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Have a great week,&lt;br /&gt;Lori&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My sources -&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;http://www.finchannel.com/news_flash/Pharmacy/72633_Novartis,_Synthetic_Genomics_in_flu_vaccine_deal/&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;http://www.xconomy.com/san-diego/2010/10/07/venter-institute-synthetic-genomics-form-vaccine-company-partner-with-novartis/&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;http://www.marketwatch.com/story/novartis-synthetic-genomics-in-flu-vaccine-deal-2010-10-07&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;http://www.novartis.com/newsroom/media-releases/en/2010/1449685.shtml&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;http://www.syntheticgenomics.com/media/press/100710.html&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6621852627307570680-5791216630542315889?l=vaccinefreehealth.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://vaccinefreehealth.blogspot.com/feeds/5791216630542315889/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://vaccinefreehealth.blogspot.com/2011/01/programmed-vaccines-new-terror-coming.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6621852627307570680/posts/default/5791216630542315889'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6621852627307570680/posts/default/5791216630542315889'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://vaccinefreehealth.blogspot.com/2011/01/programmed-vaccines-new-terror-coming.html' title='Programmed Vaccines - The new terror coming to our children'/><author><name>Lori</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02020193395139759551</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-OYx57iOhGhY/Tfb8ol7u1zI/AAAAAAAAABA/JmagmNaYEZA/s220/nojab.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6621852627307570680.post-8280080547251459278</id><published>2011-01-23T23:35:00.000-06:00</published><updated>2011-01-24T00:38:31.166-06:00</updated><title type='text'>To my faithful followers -</title><content type='html'>Greetings everyone,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I have not forgotten you.  I had quite a lengthy article typed up &amp; was almost ready to post it when my computer crashed &amp; everything was lost.  So, I am having to rebuild it from scratch.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But, I do have some articles for you to read.  As you know, Dr. Wakefield has been in the news quite a bit recently.  That he was a fraud &amp; there is no link to autism from vaccines.  But the publicity about Dr. Wakefield is covering other news regarding that very topic.  Several studies have come to light that there is a link &amp; that even the CDC has CONFIRMED Dr. Wakefields studies.  This is HUGE!!!  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Here are a couple of stories to read, I hope to have the big article that I promised earlier this month completed by the weekend.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Latest research links autism to vaccines&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;http://www.naturalnews.com/031056_autism_vaccines.html&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;CDC-sponsored MMR study supports Wakefield’s findings&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;http://www.jabs.org.uk/pages/yazbak%20on%20cdc%20study.pdf&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The 2nd link is a pdf file, so be sure you have adobe on your computer.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I must be getting too close for Satans liking.  With my computer crashing &amp; outside forces are trying to shut my blog down.  I can't go into specifics right now.  Please pray that this blog can continue.  I'm really enjoying my time I put into this.  I have decided to major in English with a minor in Literature at the college I'm currently attending.  With these degrees I will be able to do free lance writing, hopefully in the same field as I am right now.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Stay safe &amp; warm my friends,  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Lori&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;P.S.

In 250 BC, in the city of Alexandria, the old testament was translated into Greek.  There are 250 prime numbers in base 10.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I'm sure you are asking yourself right now, what does all of this have to do with health or vaccines.  Well, in doing some research this past week, I came across a very interesting article that talks about the flu shot &amp; came across this statement.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"Each of these flu shots contain 25 micrograms of mercury, a mercury content of 50,000 part per billion, 250 times more than the Environmental Protection Agency’s safety limit. Mercury is a neurotoxin, with a toxicity level 1,000 times that of lead."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;http://ecochildsplay.com/2008/11/18/doctor-recommends-avoiding-flu-shot-vitamin-d-instead/&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We hear how older homes with lead paint(alligator scales) should be cleaned of the toxins.  The medical profession tells pregnant moms don't eat too much fish during your pregnancy because of the mercury content BUT yet they want to inject exhorbant toxic levels of mercury into pregnant moms &amp; small children.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Every year we hear that 36,000 people will be killed by the flu. But in reality, this number is around a 1,000 or less.  The CDC has admitted that is falsifying these numbers to "sell" the flu shot.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;http://www.whale.to/vaccine/cdc_annual_flu_death_lie.html&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Last year, the H1N1 vaccine was the big hype.  H1N1 was hyped up to be a pandemic by the WHO &amp; was said to below those levels this year.  Only 1/3 of the U.S. was vaccinated against the H1N1 but at what cost?  Many children died after getting the vaccine, many more were injured.  But there is one startling statistic that isn't making the headlines.  The miscarriage rate among women who get the H1N1 vaccine has increased 700%!  That is a phenomenal number.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;http://www.naturalnews.com/030657_vaccines_miscarriages.html&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It says right in the insert that comes with the vaccine that is hasn't been tested on pregnant women nor is it known if it will affect a womans fertility but yet this is being pushed on women who are most vulnerable.  They are told they will face complications or death if they don't take the shot.  But, they are NOT given all the facts about this vaccine.  They are told the risks if they don't take it but they are not being the told the risks if they do take it.  Long term studies haven't been done on vaccines.  They follow a person for 4 days following a vaccine study, if no reaction they say its good.  But what about a week, a month, a year, a decade or 50 years later?  What has that person gone thru during the time frame following getting that shot?  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Using the CDCs own data, it has been shown that the death rate from the flu has gone up as the number of flu shots are going up.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;http://i226.photobucket.com/albums/dd52/mopar28m/sp11.jpg&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I know what many of you are saying right now, how can I stop from getting sick?  We're inside with family &amp; friends quite a bit this time of year.  We're not getting much time in the sun.  It has been shown that Vitamin D3 is 800% more effective in preventing the flu than the flu shot.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;http://www.naturalnews.com/029760_vitamin_D_influenza.html&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I'm sure that article wowed a few of you.  You're asking, how can they get away with it?  Easy, big pharma has deep pockets, they have the power to hide what they want.  Now I'm sure your next question is, how much D3 do I need to take?  The following chart is what Dr. Mayer Eisenstein (homefirst.com) recommends -&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;http://i226.photobucket.com/albums/dd52/mopar28m/vitd9.jpg&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;D3 can be found at Wal-Mart, GNC or at any vitamin supplement supplier.  I recommend these as I think they are the best on the market.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;http://homefirst.com/natural-pharm-store/pro-d-5-with-probiotics.html&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I hope I've given you some food for thought.  Please pass this blog along to anyone who you think might benefit from this info.  In closing, I'm going to post a link to a slide quoting what Dr. Mendelsohn said about vaccines.  He was a doctor that quit giving vaccines back in the early 70's &amp; a professor at the University of Chicago Medical School.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;http://i226.photobucket.com/albums/dd52/mopar28m/lh5.jpg&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Til Next Time, I hope this has been a blessing for you.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Lori&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6621852627307570680-5576268185167968905?l=vaccinefreehealth.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://vaccinefreehealth.blogspot.com/feeds/5576268185167968905/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://vaccinefreehealth.blogspot.com/2010/12/250.html#comment-form' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6621852627307570680/posts/default/5576268185167968905'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6621852627307570680/posts/default/5576268185167968905'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://vaccinefreehealth.blogspot.com/2010/12/250.html' title='250'/><author><name>Lori</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02020193395139759551</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-OYx57iOhGhY/Tfb8ol7u1zI/AAAAAAAAABA/JmagmNaYEZA/s220/nojab.jpg'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6621852627307570680.post-2308578610921240081</id><published>2010-12-13T19:16:00.000-06:00</published><updated>2010-12-24T23:53:50.710-06:00</updated><title type='text'>Small Pox – The dirty little secret behind its appearance in America</title><content type='html'>We've all heard the stories that vaccination caused Small Pox to be eradicated from the face of the earth.  That the WHO organization declared it gone in 1980.  But why was this disease in America in the first place?  Why was George Washington in such a hurry to get his troops vaccinated against this disease when there was a good chance they might not survive the procedure?  Lets take a look behind the scenes by going back 200 BC &amp; then coming forward to the Revolutionary War.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; Inoculation originated in China or India in 200 BC.  A Buddhist nun practiced vaccination around 1022-1063 AD.  She ground up scabs from Small Pox patients &amp; then blew the powder into the nostrils of a person in hopes that this would vaccinate the person against this dreaded disease that would leave people horribly scarred &amp; disfigured.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; The origins of small pox is thought to be in Africa which then spread to India &amp; China thousands of years ago.  The first recorded small pox outbreak was in 1350 during the Egyptian-Hittite war.  Epidemics occurred in the North American colonies during the 17th &amp; 18th centuries.  During one time frame, Small Pox was a major disease in every country except for Australia &amp; a few isolated islands.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; In the late 1700's, the idea of vaccination was new &amp; untested.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; The concept of immunization received a big boost in 1796 from a Dr. Edward Jenner after he inoculated a young boy in England.  Jenner would take pus from a sick cow, then using a lancet, he would cut wounds into an arm of a patient &amp; then rub the pus into the person to try to immunize them against smallpox by infecting them with cowpox which is similar to smallpox.  The patient was then exposed to small pox 6 weeks later, the person didn't get sick.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; In Chapter 6, we heard about that the soldiers were inoculated against small pox &amp; if they survived the procedure, they would be put into battle.  I wonder how many in the class knew what this meant?  And why was there a rush to inoculate the troops all of a sudden against small pox.  How did Small Pox get here when it was only found in Africa, China &amp; India?  After doing some research, I came across some disturbing finds.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The British used small pox during the French-Indian War in 1763 to gain the upper hand in the war.  The British then was vaccinating civilians &amp; then sending them out among the troops.  When a person was vaccinated against Small Pox, they were contagious for 2 weeks.  This is common knowledge to this day as our military troops are vaccinated against Small Pox but are told to stay away from their families for 2 weeks so that they don't infect anyone.  When a person is given the Flu Mist, they are communicable for 3 weeks.  We have to wonder why is the government giving vaccines to people when they know they can spread the disease for a period of time afterward?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The risks from being vaccinated against Small Pox were great.  When you got sick right after being vaccinated, you got a fever, you could be sick for up to 2 weeks &amp; contagious for 2-3 weeks.  The military usually said a 2nd round of vaccination was necessary, so the troops had to go thru the sickness a 2nd time.  This is why it is said in the book, IF the troops survived the vaccination they would be put into battle.  Vaccination wasn't mandatory but it was highly recommended since Small Pox was so rampant at the time &amp; the fatality rate was high.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; The troops were vaccinated for 2 reason.  The first reason was that soldiers could easily contract small pox from each other &amp; from the civilians they were among.  The second reason was that the British used Small Pox as a weapon during the French Indian war in 1763.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; A letter from British Commander Sir Jeffrey Amherst said, “Couldn't it be contrived so send Small Pox to the disaffected tribes of Indians?  We must use every strategy to reduce their numbers.”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; In the Book, Pox Americana by Elizabeth Fenn, pointed out that “130,000 Americans lost their lives to Small Pox.”  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; During the great epidemic of Smallpox in 1721, about half of the 12,000 residents in Boston came down sick with Small Pox.  The fatality rate was 14%.  The fatality rate among vaccinated individuals was 2%.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; Washington was aware of what the British had done in 1763, announced that all letters from Boston had to be dipped in vinegar to kill any Small Pox germs that were on the letters.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; The Pennsylvania Gazette published this statement, “Lord Cornwallis' attempt to spread Small Pox among the citizens of York must render him contemptible in the eyes of every civilized nation.”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; Depending how virulent the Small Pox strain was, the death rate could be anywhere from 25-40%.  There was a childhood version of small pox that wasn't as deadly but provided life long immunity against Small Pox.  This version of Small Pox was only seen in Europe.  It never made its way to the Americas.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; Some of the reasons why death from small pox among the soldiers was so high was the sick &amp; healthy fought side by side.  Conditions were so bad that a barn was converted to hospital.  One soldier said that he saw inch long maggots crawl out of fellow soldiers ear one morning.  Many soldiers suffered from dysentery.  Finally it was heroic medicine that the soldiers didn't need that really led them downhill quickly, being bled &amp; poisoned.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; It was led to believe that if you cut a person &amp; drained some of their blood, that this would cure them of their sickness.  But it wasn't known back then that a person could die from having so much blood drained from them.  Since sanitary conditions were so horrible back then, I can imagine that infections were high too since amputations were a common occurrence when a soldier was injured on the battlefield.  Doctors used a form of mercury to try to cure sickness.  Mercury is a neurotoxin &amp; in high dosages can impair brain function.  When George Washington was on his death bed, his doctors were treating him with blood letting &amp; mercury to try to cure his sore throat.  But in actuality he probably died from either blood loss or mercury poisoning.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; Morris Bealle, author of the Drug Story wrote this about the Small Pox death rate.  For children under the age of 5, it was 75 kids for every 100 kids infected.  By the 1800s, that number was reduced to 41 &amp; by 1914 that number was reduced to 14.  Thanks to better sanitation.  We learned in the book that poor people lived in unsanitary conditions.  That sewage ran in the streets, many lived with 2-6 families in one home.  Whereas the rich had running water &amp; could get away from the heat.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; That is history of Small Pox in a nutshell.  Most of the history of this disease lies in England &amp; Europe goes back centuries.  This disease now lies dormant in a vial in a few labs around the country.  The DNA has been tested &amp; it is different from the Small Pox that killed off so many thousands of people in the late 1700 &amp; 1800s.  It doesn't resemble the disease that was called cowpox, monkey pox or camel pox.  Many labs don't even know what they have.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; I shudder to think that virus will come &amp; kill so many again if it falls into the wrong hands again......&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;SOURCES&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;History of Vaccines&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;http://americanhistory.si.edu/polio/virusvaccine/history.htm&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;How Smallpox Inoculations Helped Win the American Revolution&lt;br /&gt;http://patients.about.com/b/2010/04/26/how-smallpox-inoculations-helped-win-the-american-revolution.htm&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The History of Smallpox&lt;br /&gt;http://dermatology.about.com/cs/smallpox/a/smallpoxhx.htm&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Edward Jenner and the history of smallpox and Vaccination&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC1200696/&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The History of Medicine - The Revolutionary War&lt;br /&gt;http://www.mnwelldir.org/docs/history/history02.htm&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6621852627307570680-2308578610921240081?l=vaccinefreehealth.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://vaccinefreehealth.blogspot.com/feeds/2308578610921240081/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://vaccinefreehealth.blogspot.com/2010/12/small-pox-dirty-little-secret-behind.html#comment-form' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6621852627307570680/posts/default/2308578610921240081'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6621852627307570680/posts/default/2308578610921240081'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://vaccinefreehealth.blogspot.com/2010/12/small-pox-dirty-little-secret-behind.html' title='Small Pox – The dirty little secret behind its appearance in America'/><author><name>Lori</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02020193395139759551</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-OYx57iOhGhY/Tfb8ol7u1zI/AAAAAAAAABA/JmagmNaYEZA/s220/nojab.jpg'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6621852627307570680.post-6591070584422914934</id><published>2010-08-28T12:36:00.000-05:00</published><updated>2010-08-28T13:04:09.056-05:00</updated><title type='text'>Into the lions den</title><content type='html'>I'm sure many of you have heard them advertised on TV, driving my your local Walgreens you see that they are available, there is even a gift card available for them now.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What am I referring to?

I told her I wanted the insert that came with the vial that they are supposed to give to patients when they get the shot.  She gave me a questioning look &amp; then went to the refrigerator to get the sheet.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In section 17 of the insert, it says that patients should be informed by their health care provider of risks &amp; benefits of immunizations.  When you hear about the risks, you hear about swelling at the injection site, redness &amp; possible fever.  Maybe even some dizziness &amp; headaches.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What about the risks of mercury?  I'm sure many of you have been led to believe that all mercury has been removed from vaccines.  This is NOT true.  Many childhood vaccines have trace amounts, even 3 mcg is believed to be a "trace" amount.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The flu shot can contain trace amounts in the pre-filled syringe.  But multi-dose vial has 25 mcg of Thimerosal, which is 50% mercury.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;According to EPA standards, a person shouldn't be exposed to more than .1 mcg of mercury per kilogram of body weight, approx. 2.2 lbs.  &lt;strong&gt;This means that a person would have to weigh more than 275 lbs. to get that much mercury in one shot. &lt;/strong&gt; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I've asked this question to the CDC in Washington, D.C. &amp; the local Dept. of Health WHY they allow this much mercury in shot when its a toxic dose.  I have yet to hear from either one of them of this issue.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I read thru the whole insert &amp; highlighted the areas that I believe to be important, especially how much mercury is in the vaccine &amp; how it affects pregnant women, which is unknow.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Here are the links below to parts of the insert.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;http://i226.photobucket.com/albums/dd52/mopar28m/Flu%20Info/Fluvirin2010.jpg&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;http://i226.photobucket.com/albums/dd52/mopar28m/Flu%20Info/fluvirin20102.jpg&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;http://i226.photobucket.com/albums/dd52/mopar28m/Flu%20Info/fluvirin3.jpg&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This vaccine hasn't been tested for carcinogenic or mutagenic potential or for the impairment of fertility.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;WHAT in the world are we doing to ourselves??  The flu shot last year said that is hadn't been tested for fertility impairment either.                              &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We need to stop trusting the CDC, FDA, the Health &amp; Human Services commission &amp; our local Dept. of Health to have our best interests when it comes to our health.  We need to do our own homework &amp; get things figured out.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It never ceases to amaze me when I see people line up like sheep, roll up their sleeves &amp; blindly receive the shot without getting all of the facts.  I educate as I can.  If I see someone looking at allergy or cold medicines, I will ask them if I can suggest something &amp; then lead them over to where the Vit. D3 is in the store &amp; explain to them how it works &amp; how it will do them more good than what they were looking at.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We have a freedom right now to choose our own plan of action when it comes to our health.  Lets be pro-active &amp; get ahead of the game before that freedom is taken away from us someday.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Have a GREAT week.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Lori&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6621852627307570680-6591070584422914934?l=vaccinefreehealth.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://vaccinefreehealth.blogspot.com/feeds/6591070584422914934/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://vaccinefreehealth.blogspot.com/2010/08/into-lions-den.html#comment-form' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6621852627307570680/posts/default/6591070584422914934'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6621852627307570680/posts/default/6591070584422914934'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://vaccinefreehealth.blogspot.com/2010/08/into-lions-den.html' title='Into the lions den'/><author><name>Lori</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02020193395139759551</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-OYx57iOhGhY/Tfb8ol7u1zI/AAAAAAAAABA/JmagmNaYEZA/s220/nojab.jpg'/></author><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6621852627307570680.post-6798148752277313996</id><published>2010-08-12T18:19:00.001-05:00</published><updated>2010-08-12T18:25:09.006-05:00</updated><title type='text'>Presenting in Illinois</title><content type='html'>Just a short blog entry this time.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I will be doing a presentation at the Feast of Tabernacles on Vaccines - Are they for Christians today?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I will be covering the chemicals, heavy metals &amp; other toxins that are in vaccines.

Why is that?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Look at the ingredients of weight loss products, most of them contain High Fructose Corn Syrup.  The FDA will tell you that the body processes this ingredient no differently than regular sugar.  This is false.  It processes it differently &amp; stores in in the body as fat, it doesn't use it for energy.  90% of the food you see in grocery stores today have high fructose corn syrup in them.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So, what is the number one way to get rid of fat?  Don't eat or drink foods with High Fructose Corn Syrup in it.  If you've seen the commercials for Losing it with Jillian (Jillian Michaels from the Biggest Loser), she says the same thing.  I went thru our pantry &amp; got rid of all the foods with high fructose corn syrup in it.  Manufacturers are seeing that consumers don't want food with this ingredient in it &amp; are starting to make foods without it, like Log Cabin pancake syrups &amp; Hunt's Ketchup with their no High Fructose Corn Syrup Ketchup.  Which if I may say, is the best ketchup I've ever tasted.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There are many diets out there for us to try.  Weight Watchers, Jenny Craig, Hcg, Atkins, SlimFast, South Beach, Mediterranean, raw foods, etc.  Depending on your budget, you may or may not be able to afford any of these &amp; continue to struggle with weight loss or gain.  Also, many can't afford a gym membership so this becomes a hurdle too.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So, what is an easy way to lose weight &amp; stay within your budget?  Well, after a lifelong batter with my own weight &amp; seeing MANY members of my family in the same boat.  I decided to take some info from one diet &amp; some from another diet.  Add in a little bit of will power &amp; some good old fashioned sweat to see if it could be done.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I did it.  I've lost 8.5 pounds in one week.  How did I do it you may ask?  Well, here is how I did it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;First off, I had to find my Calories burned at rest.  Meaning, how many calories do I need just to sit here &amp; read my computer screen.  This also showed how many calories I needed just to maintain my current weight.  I then could figure out how many calories I needed to take in each day to lose X amount of pounds per week.  After searching all over the web, I came across the link below.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;www.mycaloriecounter.blogspot.com&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This had all the info I needed to give me a plan for losing weight.  You input male or female, height &amp; current weight.  It then tells you how many calories you burn at rest, caloric intake to maintain your current weight, your current activity level &amp;  the calories taken in per day to either lose weight or gain weight.  Even tho it told me to only take in 1,144 calories per day to lose 2.25 pounds per week, this daily caloric intake that I'm doing is resulting in a bigger weight loss.  Which is a good thing.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Now, many foods tell you on the package that a number of ounces or grams is X amount of calories.  What about chicken, beef &amp; turkey?  Nutritionist will tell you the size of a deck of cards.  Well, there are 2 different sizes of a deck of cars.  You have your regular playing cards or if you play UNO like I do, you have a deck of cards of over 100 cards.  So, after more searching, I found this website that will tell you the calories in many foods &amp; you can adjust the the portion size to what fits you best.  There is a free membership &amp; a paying membership.  I've always been able to use the free membership.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;www.calorieking.com&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Its not just calories in, calories out.  Your calories out needs to be GREATER than your calories in order to lose weight.  Not only do you need to count calories BUT you also need to keep a food journal &amp; keep track of everything you eat &amp; the number of calories you take in each day so that you are sure you stay within your caloric budget.  This makes for some difficult decisions when we want to eat our favorite foods, especially if its a special day during the week.  Like I keep the Sabbath on Saturday &amp; we have all sorts of goodies that are put out on this day.  I have to make sure that I stay within my intake budget, even on the Sabbath.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Now, by now many of you are saying, diets are great but the biggest thing to overcome is the hunger between meals.  Yes, this is hurdle BUT with will power &amp; seeing the big picture &amp; a little help from a ingredient our bodies are mostly made of, the hunger problem isn't that big of an issue.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You need to drink water &amp; lots of it.  The following info comes from the Hcg diet.  You need to take your body weight &amp; divide it by 2.  This is how many ounces of water you should be taking in each day.  Now some of you are looking at that number &amp; saying, that is a LOT of water.  What about water toxicity?  The first few days that you are drinking that much water, you might get a headache or feel a little water logged, I know I did.  BUT, it will pass.  Now, if I don't drink that much water each day, I feel dehydrated.  Some days I drink more than that because of I'm out doing my walking.  As long as your are going to the bathroom, you shouldn't have any water toxicity problems.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Now, I just mentioned walking.  There are various types of walks.  There is a leisurely stroll, a quicker walk &amp; then there is power walking.  This is a fast deliberate walk in which you cover a good distance in a short amount of time.  I do the power walking 6 days a week.  I cover 2.5 miles in about 25 min.  I take our dog with me since he also carrying a few extra pounds.  My route for my power walking also goes by a number of neighborhood dogs so he learns to ignore them &amp; concentrate on just walking or in his case its a trot for him.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If this rate continues, if I can stay with my will power &amp; see the big picture at the end of the tunnel.  Which in this case, is a new wardrobe &amp; replacing our 25+ year old mattress set.  I should be done to my goal weight by the end of July.  YEAH!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Til next time friends,&lt;br /&gt;Lori&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6621852627307570680-7353741351589589755?l=vaccinefreehealth.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://vaccinefreehealth.blogspot.com/feeds/7353741351589589755/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://vaccinefreehealth.blogspot.com/2010/06/easy-weightloss.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6621852627307570680/posts/default/7353741351589589755'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6621852627307570680/posts/default/7353741351589589755'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://vaccinefreehealth.blogspot.com/2010/06/easy-weightloss.html' title='Easy Weightloss'/><author><name>Lori</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02020193395139759551</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-OYx57iOhGhY/Tfb8ol7u1zI/AAAAAAAAABA/JmagmNaYEZA/s220/nojab.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6621852627307570680.post-4698000157233635274</id><published>2010-05-02T23:18:00.000-05:00</published><updated>2010-05-02T23:24:26.666-05:00</updated><title type='text'>BPPV Update</title><content type='html'>Wow, what a month.  I've had 3 physical therapy treatments.  The first one wasn't so bad, some dizziness with the movements designed to move the crystals out of the area where they are causing problems.  The 2nd treatment was horrible.  The room was spinning at times &amp; one time when she sat me up, I felt like I was falling.  The sensations were only supposed to last a few seconds, one lasted quite a few minutes.  The 3rd one only resulted in a few episodes that only lasted a few seconds.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I wouldn't wish this on my worst enemy. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;She said this could happen again in 6-18 months OR it could never occur again.  I'm hoping its beyond the 6 month range since we will be in Illinois for the Feast of Tabernacles at the 6 month mark.  Going to the ER while you are at the feast is NO FUN for anyone involved.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Working on a few health topics.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Sun, sunblock lotion &amp; skin cancer - What is the link?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Our toxic environment&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Microwaves - How harmless are they?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My research class I took February thru March has really opened up a new relm of possibilities of topics &amp; deeper research.

Stressing in trying to get the house cleaned up, checking &amp; double checking my guest list, trying to condense 5 workdays into 3 &amp; planning the meal to be served that evening.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When I went to bed on the 30th, I never dreamed that the next morning would just about derail the whole day.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I set my alarm for 6:15 am.  This would give me time to finish cleaning my kitchen &amp; do a little baking for the Passover meal.  During the short time my daughter would be in school, I could pick up a few things I needed from the store.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The alarm went off at 6:15, I rolled over to grab my cell phone (which was my alarm clock) &amp; the room starting spinning instantly &amp; the waves of nausea were unbearable.  I staggered to the bathroom (about 20 feet from our bedroom) to splash cold water on my face, no help.  I then made my way back to the bedroom, grasping door frames, chairs &amp; whatever else could help me stay in an upright position.  I collapsed back on the bed to try to gain some sort of control, again no help.  The waves of nausea were becoming stronger &amp; I had to run back to the bathroom to throw up.  This continued for several hours.  My hands, arms, legs &amp; feet were cold &amp; clamy but my core temp was normal.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I usually avoid the doctor like the plague but I knew if I didn't get any help soon that Passover would be a bust.  My son drove me to the emergency room where I was I given Zofran for the nausea &amp; Meclizine for the dizziness.  After an hour, I could move around a little, as long as I didn't move too fast, without getting dizzy.  I was finally discharged after being there for 2 1/2 hours.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The diagnosis - BPPV - Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Basically what I've been told is that a certain population have crystals in their ears &amp; that these crystals move up to a point in the ear &amp; start stimulating the hair in the ear.  This affects our balance &amp; how our body feels in relation to our position.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;http://www.physioworks.com.au/images/Injuries-Conditions/bppv.gif&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Physical therapy, an exercise in movement to try to get the crystals down where they need to be OR to get the body used to the new position is an option for some.  I start physical therapy on Thursday to try this exercise.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;http://www.dizziness-and-balance.com/disorders/bppv/bppv.html&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I visited my chiropracter last week &amp; he found 3 vertebrae out of place.  2 in my upper back &amp; 1 in my neck.  When he pressed on the one in my neck it was instant pain.  He said that was the one that was causing my vertigo problem.  He popped it back into place &amp; the room started spinning again.  He said he would take a few minutes for it to clear up &amp; not to drive home until I see clearly.  (took about 20 minutes for things to clear up enough to head home)  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I can drive but I have to be careful when I'm looking in both directions to check for traffic or to look to see if someone is sitting in blind spot if I'm changing lanes.  The last 2 weeks of work have been interesting.

A lot of childrens toys are made out of plastic.  We store our food in it, whether it be on the table or in the refrigerator &amp; freezer.  We drink liquids from it &amp; we eat off of it.  We even put food that is stored in plastic into the microwave to "heat" it up to eat it.  The microwave is a whole blog topic on its own.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Lets look at each type of plastic &amp; its toxicity.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;#1 plastic&lt;/strong&gt; -  Polyethylene Terephthalate (PETE)&lt;br /&gt;Uses: 2 liter soda bottles, cooking oil bottles, peanut butter jars.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This plastic was LONG considered to be one of the safest plastics to use as it was BPA (Bisphenol A).  But, is this still true?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In a review done by Leonard Sax, PETE may leach endocrine disrupting phthalates.  He considered evidence that the antimony from PET containers may lead to endocrine-disrupting effects.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Under what conditions do these chemicals leach into the product that is stored in them?  Here is a list of "conditions" in which these chemicals are released into the product.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;-Phthalates leach from the plastic into lower pH products such as soda &amp; vinegar more readily than into bottled water&lt;br /&gt;-Temperature also appears to influence the leaching both of phthalates (&amp; antimony), with greater leaching at higher temperatures&lt;br /&gt;-Combining both variations of low PH &amp; high-heat exposure could result in an even higher leaching of phthalates&lt;br /&gt;-Variations in the composition &amp; manufacture of PET may also influence the leaching of these substances into the contents of the bottle. PET is typically a homopolymer, but some copolymers are also categorized as PET (copolymers have been found to be less vulnerable to degredation, thus leaching less)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Mr. Sax concludes that the evidence suggests PET bottles may yield endocrine disruptors under conditions of common use, particularly with prolonged storage and elevated temperature. Because of the widespread use of PET plastic worldwide, more research is needed to clarify how PET containers may be contaminated by endocrine-disrupting chemicals.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;http://healthychild.org/blog/comments/pet_1_plastic_may_leach_endocrine_disruptors&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;#2 Plastic&lt;/strong&gt; - High Density Polyethylene (HDPE)&lt;br /&gt;Uses: detergent bottles, milk jugs.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This HDPE is one of the safer (notice I didn't say safest) &amp; strongest plastic there is.  Its opaque &amp; harder for a reason, to withstand sunlight longer &amp; last longer.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In researching this plastic, I was unable to find any real hazards.  Of the 3 dozen or so articles I read, only 1 said that they took a drink from a #2 plastic &amp; the drink tasted strongly of plastic.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Many articles showed that if you are going to have a water bottle, that a #2 water bottle is the way to go.  As it replaces a #1 plastic that might leach chemicals into the liquid.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;However, you want to avoid the Nalgene bottles made of Lexan that are more colorful.  I did find one article in which it talked about BPA being leached into the liquid from this type of plastic.  The article recommended going with a #2 type of plastic.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;http://www.wta.org/trail-news/signpost/new-nalgene-safety-concern&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;#3 Plastic&lt;/strong&gt; - Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC)&lt;br /&gt;Uses: plastic pipes, outdoor furniture, shrink wrap, water bottles, salad dressing &amp; liquid detergent containers.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This is the most toxic form of plastic known to man.  But yet, it is commonly used in homes today as plumbing.  My husband used to work with PVC quite a bit.  But since we have learned the toxicity of this plastic, we go with the more expensive plastic called "pex" which I will talk about later in this article.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Have you ever worked with PVC?  Have smelled the fumes that come from the glue that is used to glue the joints together?  I have many times in the past &amp; usually got a nasty headache from it.  I wonder why?  Because PVC is 10-12 times more toxic than any other plastic out there.  When  PVC burns, it releases hydrochloric acid.  Hydrochloric acid it is a highly corrosive, strong mineral acid and has major industrial uses.  Do you really want to be showering or drinking water that has come from a pipe that can possibly leach this into the water?  The making of PVC in its manufacturing processes consume approximately 30% of the chlorine used in industrial processes and releases many other toxic chemicals, &lt;em&gt;some of which are accumulate in the body&lt;/em&gt;.  Accumulate in the body?  Isn't is bad enough that we have aluminum &amp; mercury that accumulate in the brain as neurotoxins but also chemicals from the manufacturing process of PVC?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It is also a carcinogen, cancer causing.  PVC will not break down in the landfills &amp; will leach carcinogenic chemicals into the air, water and soil.  Despite these facts, the FDA has approved this plastic to be used for the use in the packaging of our food, our health care products, &amp; our medicines.  This is the same branch of government that approves vaccines &amp; the ingredients in them.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Hmmm, maybe its time to rethink many of the things in our lives.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;#4 Plastic&lt;/strong&gt; - Low Density Polyethylene (LDPE)&lt;br /&gt;Uses: dry cleaning bags, produce bags, trash can liners, food storage containers.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Most Tupperware products are made of LDPE or PP (next one to be covered), &amp; as such are considered safe for repeated use storing food items &amp; cycling through the dishwasher. Most food storage products from Glad, Hefty, Ziploc &amp; Saran also pass the test.  As far as the generic or non-name brands, I can't say if they are "safe" or not.  If there is a consumer safety line on the box, I would be calling to see what the "base" plastic is &amp; go from there.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;http://www.popsci.com/earthtalk/article/2008-08/how-safe-tupperware&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;#5 Plastic&lt;/strong&gt; - Polypropylene (PP)&lt;br /&gt;Uses: bottle caps, drinking straws &amp; Yogurt cups.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This is a robust plastic that is heat resistant considered highly safe for human use. Because of its high heat tolerance, Polypropylene is unlikely to leach even when exposed to warm or hot water. This plastic is approved for use with food &amp; beverage storage. Polypropylene plastics can be re-used safely &amp; with hot beverages.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Again this is one of the "safer" plastics.  (notice not safest)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;#6 Plastic&lt;/strong&gt; - Polystyrene (PS)&lt;br /&gt;Uses - packaging pellets or "Styrofoam peanuts," cups, plastic tableware, meat trays, to-go "clam shell" containers.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When I was going thru our plastic containers around the house about a year ago, I was surprised to see how many #6 plastics I had around the house, including styrofoam plates &amp; bowls, Solo cups for picnic &amp; camping use &amp; some of the plastic glasses we had.  All of them went into the garbage &amp; I just recently found a few more way back in the cupboard. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Polystyrene contains the toxic Styrene which is labeled a possible human carcinogen by the EPA.  When you are drinking out of a styrofoam cup, have you ever tasted the plastic in the liquid or let your tongue touch the cup &amp; taste the plastic that way?  #6 plastics leaches styrene into food &amp; drink.  This is definitely another off limits plastic.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;#7 Plastic&lt;/strong&gt; - Other&lt;br /&gt;Uses: certain kinds of food containers &amp; Tupperware&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Believe it or not there are 2 different kinds of #7 plastics.  One is environmentally friendly &amp; the other is not.  The environmentally friendly one is the kind you can use &amp; the one that is not environmentally friendly can be a conglomeration of any of the plastics listed above.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;However, I have not been able to find any environmentally friendly #7 plastics.  I read several articles for this portion of my blog &amp; one article said that the jar was listed a #7 plastic because it had a #1 interior &amp; a #7 exterior, therefore it got a #7 designation.  How in the world does that work?  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Now, there is another plastic out there that doesn't have any of these designations.  Its called &lt;strong&gt;Pex&lt;/strong&gt;.  For the articles I read on this, no known contaminants were leached into the water systems.  It seems this is a safer (not completely safe) alternative to plumbing in the home &amp; general use.  It is hard but not as hard as PVC as it can be manipulated somewhat for the use you need.  We plan on using this in the garage that we are building in the backyard this summer.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Here are a few links to my resources for this article.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;http://www.recyclenow.org/r_plastics.html&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;http://www.squidoo.com/dangerous_plastics&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;http://www.plumbingengineer.com/june_07/domestic_water_systems.php&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;'Til next time, &lt;br /&gt;Lori&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6621852627307570680-1244210866770504500?l=vaccinefreehealth.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://vaccinefreehealth.blogspot.com/feeds/1244210866770504500/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://vaccinefreehealth.blogspot.com/2010/01/plastics-how-toxic-are-they.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6621852627307570680/posts/default/1244210866770504500'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6621852627307570680/posts/default/1244210866770504500'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://vaccinefreehealth.blogspot.com/2010/01/plastics-how-toxic-are-they.html' title='Plastics - How toxic are they?'/><author><name>Lori</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02020193395139759551</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-OYx57iOhGhY/Tfb8ol7u1zI/AAAAAAAAABA/JmagmNaYEZA/s220/nojab.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6621852627307570680.post-607686537409870829</id><published>2009-12-19T20:30:00.000-06:00</published><updated>2009-12-19T20:34:30.326-06:00</updated><title type='text'>Codex - Worry or a non-issue?</title><content type='html'>This blog entry is going to short, sweet &amp; to the point this week.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There is a lot of info out there on Codex.

Anything above these "low" dosage recommendations, you will need a prescription.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It is called Codex Alimentarius &amp; its coming to a store near you in just under a month.  Those of us who have enjoyed great health because of D3, Vit. C &amp; multivitamins are in for a rude awakening very soon.  Those days are going to be gone.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Lets look at the 7 points of Codex Alimentarius -&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1) &lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Started in 1962 by UN, Imposed by WTO Sanctions&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Codex Alimentarius was created in 1962 as a trade Commission by the UN to control the international trade of food. Its initial intentions may have been altruistic but it has been taken over by corporate interests, most notably the pharmaceutical, pesticide, biotechnology and chemical industries.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Codex Alimentarius is backed up by the crippling trade sanctions of the World Trade Organization (WTO). Any non Codex-compliant nation would face huge economic punishment since they would automatically lose in any food-trade dispute with a Codex compliant country.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2) &lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;“Nutrients are Toxins” Is Junk Science&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Codex Alimentarius Commission (CAC) has two committees which impact nutrition.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;One of them, the “Codex Committee on Nutrition and Foods for Special Dietary Uses” (CCNFSDU), is chaired by Dr. Rolf Grossklaus, a physician who believes that nutrition has no role in health. This is the “top-guy” for Codex nutritional policy, and he has stated that “nutrition is not relevant to health”.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As unbelievable as it may sound, Dr. Grossklaus actually declared nutrients to be toxins in 1994 and instituted the use of toxicology (Risk Assessment) to prevent nutrients from having any impact on humans who take supplements! It is worth mentioning that Dr. Grossklaus happens to own the Risk Assessment company advising CCNFSDU and Codex on this issue. This company makes money when its toxicology services are used for the “assessment” of nutrients. Here in the U.S. we call that a “conflict of interest”.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Codex is made up of thousands of standards and guidelines. One of them, the Vitamin and Mineral Guideline (VMG), is designed to permit only ultra low doses of vitamins and minerals (and make clinically effective nutrients illegal). How can the VMG restrict dosages of vitamins and minerals? By using Risk Assessment (toxicology) to assess nutrients.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;While Risk Assessment is a legitimate science (it is a branch of toxicology), it is the wrong science for assessing nutrients! In fact, in this context, it is actually junk science. Biochemistry, the science of life processes, is the correct science for assessing nutrients. Codex Alimentarius treats nutrients as toxins, which is literally insane.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Nutrients are not toxins – they are essential for life.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;No matter what Codex Alimentarius officials say to convince you that Risk Assessment is a “science-based” approach to nutrients, it is not.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And it is worth repeating that Dr. Grossklaus, the head of Codex Alimentarius, owns the Risk Assessment company advising CCNFSDU and Codex on the “benefit” of using Risk Assessment to assess nutrients.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3) &lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Not Consumer Protection – That’s Propaganda&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Contrary to the propaganda, Codex Alimentarius has nothing to do with consumer protection. Nothing! Codex is about the economic ambitions of multi-national corporations, in particular, the pharmaceutical industry.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Using their multi billion-dollar marketing budgets, these industries have launched a massive media propaganda campaign to paint Codex Alimentarius as a benevolent tool of “consumer protection”, as well as to negatively taint the image of natural health options and mislead people to fear them as “dangerous”, so they will take drugs (which really are dangerous). Natural health products and options have an amazing safety record and are remarkably effective, especially when compared to pharmaceutical drugs.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Unfortunately, one-time defenders of health freedom such as National Nutritional Foods Association (NNFA) and Council for Responsible Nutrition (CRN) have joined the propaganda bandwagon and are spreading false information saying that Codex Alimentarius is either “harmless” or benevolent “consumer protection”. Neither is true.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The membership of these one-time defenders of health freedom has become permeated by people from the pharmaceutical industry (for example, CRN counts as its members corporations such as Monsanto® and Bayer®).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;4) &lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Codex: Serious Threat to Health and Health Freedom&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If Codex Alimentarius is implemented in the United States of America, therapeutic dosages of vitamins and minerals (and all other nutrients soon to follow) will become unavailable because they will literally become illegal.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Here’s how it would work, in a nut-shell:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Due to the junk science use of Risk Assessment (toxicology) to assess supposedly toxic nutrients, a false belief is being engineered saying that “nutritional supplements are dangerous to people’s health”.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Using this false belief generates calls to “protect” people from these “toxic” nutrients. After the calls come the bills to set ultra low permissible dosages (remember, nutrients are deemed “dangerous toxins” under this false belief). If enough of us and our Congressional delegates buy this nonsense, we and Congress would blindly comply with Codex Alimentarius’ VMG. And blind compliance is what the industries behind Codex Alimentarius intend.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Blind compliance goes hand-in-hand with lack of activism. This lack of activism allows our protective laws, classifying nutrients as foods with no upper limits (such as DSHEA), to be easily repealed and replaced with draconian laws to classify nutrients as toxins. And “harmonization” with the pro-illness, pro-pharmaceutical industry Vitamin and Mineral Guideline is there to fill the void.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Only intentionally ineffective, ultra low dose supplements would be legal, with or without a prescription, on the VMG list. If enough people do not take action, we can expect to watch nutritional supplement manufacturers and, thus health food stores, to go out of business, in a domino effect. The only player left standing would be Big Pharma.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Therapeutic grade vitamins, minerals, and amino acids would be eliminated from the marketplace (although a few low-dose supplements would be allowed by Codex, as a symbolic measure to avoid suspicion about their ulterior motive).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Natural health professionals would lose the tools of their trade (nutritional supplements) and health conscious people would be unable to choose natural health options for health promotion and disease treatment.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And that is, in a nutshell, how Codex Alimentarius is poised to make Natural and Nutritional Medicine (NNM) disappear from the legal health world and go underground. Who benefits? Big Pharma.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It would take a few years for the above scenarios to be feasible (Codex Alimentarius is meant to go into full global effect by 2010). The slower the process takes, the less alarmed people will be. That’s probably the logic of the architects of Codex Alimentarius.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;5) &lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Serves Economic Interests of Sickness Industries Through WTO and Napoleonic Code&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;More and more people are turning to natural health products globally. The “wellness” trend is a major trend in today’s society. The more natural health products people use, the fewer drugs they buy. The pharmaceutical industry, which is part of the “Sickness Industry”, fears the inevitable shift toward natural health care.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Instead of accepting the will of the people and rethinking the future of the pharmaceutical industry, the industry has decided upon an unethical course of action: the use of deception and deceit to eliminate natural health products completely.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Codex Alimentarius is a shrewd vehicle for protecting the pharmaceutical industry from the loss of income it stands to suffer due to the inevitable growth of natural healthcare.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Codex Alimentarius is the resistance of the dinosaurs to inevitability: the burgeoning desire of humanity for a healthier, saner, and more sustainable way of life.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The World Trade Organization (WTO) intends to force Codex Alimentarius upon the nations of the world, including the U.S. This would be done under the threat of massive economic sanctions if WTO-countries do not comply with Codex Alimentarius.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Furthermore, Codex is based in the Napoleonic Code, not Common Law. That means that under Codex Alimentarius, anything not explicitly permitted is forbidden. Under Common Law, we hold that anything not explicitly forbidden is permitted. The difference is the difference between health freedom and health tyranny. Codex Alimentarius would be able to ban supplements by default.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;6) &lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;DSHEA Protects America From Codex Alimentarius&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Dietary Supplement Health and Education Act (DSHEA, 1994), an American law classifying our supplements and herbs as foods (which can have no upper limit set on their use), was passed by unanimous Congressional consent following massive grass-roots support organized by health food stores. Millions of American activists told Congress, in no uncertain terms:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;“Protect nutritional supplements as foods or we will remove you from office”.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Congress listened and carried out the will of the people.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;DSHEA appropriately classifies nutritional supplements as foods which can have no upper limits set on their use. DSHEA recognizes that people use nutrients safely to deal with their individually differing needs for nutrients. The concept of biochemical individuality means that people have different needs for nutrients at different times. Are nutrients toxins? No, they are not toxins. They are substances essential to prevent, treat and cure any chronic condition, in differing doses at different times in different people.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;DSHEA protects the US from Codex Alimentarius’ deadly Vitamin and Mineral Guideline. We must reach our Congressional members, educate them about the facts on Codex Alimentarius and direct them to vote against anything that would threaten DSHEA.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Congress holds the keys to our health freedom. And it is their job to listen to us. Let’s not allow cynicism to tell us otherwise. We did it for DSHEA in 1994. We can do it again this year.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;7) &lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Your Action is Needed Now!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;DSHEA is under significant legislative attack right now. Your letter-writing is crucial: if the members of Congress know that voting against health freedom means losing their jobs come election time, they will listen. Our job is to make sure they get the message loud and clear. Take action via our 3 easy steps and send personalized emails to Congress right now.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://dprogram.net/2009/09/30/codex-alimentarius-summarized-in-7-points/"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There are MORE deaths each year from prescription pharmaceutical mistakes than nutritional supplements.  Prescriptions make up 5.18% of the deaths in the U.S.  whereas nutritional supplements account for .00001% of the deaths.  I recall a local 14 year old girl died about 2 years ago from an antibiotic overdose.  She had her tonsils out &amp; was prescribed antibiotics for post-op.  She died less than a week later since the pharmacy instructions were MUCH more than what the doctor called for.  I was once taking antibiotics for a double ear infection &amp; was having a horrible reaction to them.  I called up the doctors office &amp; they told me that the reactions were nothing &amp; to continue to take them.  I took one or two more &amp; threw them out, having a hard time breathing, double vision &amp; severe dizziness.  The first one alone is enough of a reason to stop taking the antibiotics.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But YET, Codex is insisting that vitamins, minerals &amp; nutritional supplements be regulated for our own "safety".  Who is kidding who here?  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Codex says that toxins in our food is o.k. along with GMO (genetically modified origins) food is also o.k.  GMO ingredients can get into our DNA &amp; change it, therefore even affecting our children!  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In 1995, the FDA issued a policy statement saying that international standards such as Codex would supersede U.S. laws governing all food.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/026731_CODEX_food_health.html"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Why haven't we been told this in the mainstream media?  Is it because the pharmaceutical industry has bought their silence with all of their drug ads?  After all, their advertising budget is in the BILLIONS every year.  This is only a drop in the bucket with their TRILLION dollar income every year.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This article is only the tip of the iceberg on this.  Do your homework, call your senators &amp; congressman.  There isn't time to write.  One of our senators said in a townhall meeting that he has over 10,000 emails to answer.  When do you think your email regarding this will be answered?  Probably when its too late.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Its time to stock up on your favorite supplements.  Ours here is D3 &amp; Vit. A.  D3 has been shown effective in fighting the H1N1 virus.  Vit. A meant life or death when there was a measles outbreak in Africa quite a few years back.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Keep alert my friends, its going to be a bumpy ride.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Til next time,&lt;br /&gt;Lori&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6621852627307570680-1308042065206831490?l=vaccinefreehealth.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://vaccinefreehealth.blogspot.com/feeds/1308042065206831490/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://vaccinefreehealth.blogspot.com/2009/12/codex-alimentarius-good-or-bad.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6621852627307570680/posts/default/1308042065206831490'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6621852627307570680/posts/default/1308042065206831490'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://vaccinefreehealth.blogspot.com/2009/12/codex-alimentarius-good-or-bad.html' title='Codex Alimentarius - Good or Bad?'/><author><name>Lori</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02020193395139759551</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-OYx57iOhGhY/Tfb8ol7u1zI/AAAAAAAAABA/JmagmNaYEZA/s220/nojab.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6621852627307570680.post-2551182446132355477</id><published>2009-11-27T00:51:00.000-06:00</published><updated>2009-11-27T02:13:43.920-06:00</updated><title type='text'>Vitamin D3 &amp; You, the perfect combination</title><content type='html'>Seasonal Flu Vaccine, H1N1 vaccines, booster shots, Elderberry supplements &amp; Vitamin D3, what do all of these have in common?  They are said to beat the flu bug &amp; keep it away.  But do they &amp; which one is the best to use?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It is said that the winter months are the months that the flu &amp; cold bugs hit the hardest &amp; quickest.  Why is this?  Its because we are inside all the time, we don't get outside in the sun to do anything because its so cold.  Take a look at this map -&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://i226.photobucket.com/albums/dd52/mopar28m/vitd13.jpg"&gt;http://i226.photobucket.com/albums/dd52/mopar28m/vitd13.jpg&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If you live north of the 37th parallel you are not getting enough sun, even in the summer time to boost your Vit. D levels in your body.  Vit. D boosts your immune system so that you are less susceptible to illnesses &amp; most cancers as you can see in this chart.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://i226.photobucket.com/albums/dd52/mopar28m/vitd10.jpg"&gt;http://i226.photobucket.com/albums/dd52/mopar28m/vitd10.jpg&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ideally your Vit. D level should be above 80 ng/ml of blood (nanograms per milliliter) to ward off sickness.  How do you find this out?  With a blood test, its called 25(OH)D - Vit. D test.  Most insurance companies will cover the cost but others will need a diagnosis in order to cover the cost of it.  You can also order a home test kit &amp; then send the samples back in for the results.  You can find these companies by doing a google search.  You can also get a kit from this website.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.zrtlab.com/vitamindcouncil/"&gt;http://www.zrtlab.com/vitamindcouncil/&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;How much D3 each day is too much?  Can you overdose on it?  Worrying about Vitamin D overdosing has lead 90% of America to be Vit. D deficient.  This is one of the reasons why Americans get sick so easily.  In order to get enough Vit. D each day, you need to spend 15-20 min. each day with 40% body exposure between 10 &amp; 2 pm.  I'm not saying stay in the sun until you are burned to a crisp but just this 15-20 min.  This is good for about 10,000 IU of Vit. D.  You are not going to get sunburned in that short period of time.  My husband did it all this past summer on a daily basis &amp; never got sunburned.  Have you noticed that the skin cancer rate has gone UP since the widespread use of Sunblocker &amp; Sun Tan lotions?  There are a lot of chemicals in those lotions that are quickly absorbed by our bodies within a few minutes of application.  A lifeguard who spend 6-8 hours watching swimmers at the pool will get about 50,000 IUs/day.  How much Vitamin D3 do you need each day if you don't get enough time in the sun?  This chart shows you how much.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://i226.photobucket.com/albums/dd52/mopar28m/vitd9.jpg"&gt;http://i226.photobucket.com/albums/dd52/mopar28m/vitd9.jpg&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I started  taking 2,000 IU of Vit. D3 last Spring after I had foot surgery.  I had read that D3 would help the bones heal in the area where they had sliced the bone in the right big toe joint &amp; put pins in.  But after hearing a webinar (online seminar)about D3 &amp; how people with chronic conditions should be taking 10,000 IU/day, I immediately upped my dosage.  Since I have osteoarthritis, I have continued to take 10,000 IU/day since this falls under the chronic condition category in the chart above.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;By now you are probably wondering what D3 &amp; H1N1 have to do with each other.  D3 has been shown to be effective against the H1N1 virus.  Take a look at this article.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://archive.constantcontact.com/fs001/1101240076659/archive/1102711304092.html"&gt;http://archive.constantcontact.com/fs001/1101240076659/archive/1102711304092.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A long term care facility in Wisconsin used D3 to combat H1N1.  I have also seen it work in my own home.  Late October my daughter came down with a flu bug that I assumed to be H1N1 after her best friend came back to school too soon after recovering from H1N1.  It started on a Saturday &amp; by Wednesday evening, I was pretty sure that she was going to be in the doctors office or the hospital by Saturday.  She had posted on her Facebook account that she had H1N1.  Dr. Mayer Eisenstein contacted me via Facebook to call him about her.  He asked me how much D3 I was giving her in which I replied 10,000 IU/day.  He said it wasn't enough.  He told me to boost it up to 150,000 IU/day for 7 days.  This was Thursday morning, by Friday evening she was really perking up &amp; by Saturday morning she was feeling 99.9% better.  That evening I let her go to a party with the promise that she would NOT go outside &amp; would not get real close to anyone.  And she kept that promise.  By Monday, she was back in school.  A month later, she is still taking 10,000 IU/day to get her thru the cold &amp; flu season because of her week immune system.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Fears about Vit. D toxicity are unwarranted.  That is why we are so deficient &amp; sickness runs so rampant thru society today.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.vitamindcouncil.org/vitaminDToxicity.shtml"&gt;http://www.vitamindcouncil.org/vitaminDToxicity.shtml&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This is a link that Dr. Sherri Tenpenny did on Vit. D.  It is highly infomative &amp; I highly recommend you read it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://drtenpenny.com/Documents/Vitamin%20D%20and%20You.pdf"&gt;http://drtenpenny.com/Documents/Vitamin%20D%20and%20You.pdf&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I have an exciting announcement that I will let out of the bag very soon.

It is very vaccine related &amp; shows the dangers of these vaccines.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Shalom Torah Fans,&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;It is 0300 in the morning.  I cannot sleep any longer.  Last evening I turned in early after the dinner that broke a 21-day detoxification fast aimed at attacking the recurring joint maladies which have had me springing from the lecture stage into a wheelchair, onto crutches, over to a cane, and back into a wheelchair - week after week for nearly two years now.  &lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;Just 21 days ago I needed a cane to painfully make it from the driver's seat to the self-serve pump at the gas station on my one-man journey from Michigan to Florida.  Rather than try to make it into a motel room that first night, I slept in the reclined driver's seat in a rest area for a few hours and then sped on to the Florida coast where I hoped to find relief.  Every day of physical therapy has been a day of "good pain" as I have put unused muscles to the test while drinking rejuvenating elixirs that would make Peter Rabbit turn a dark green.  Depending on my mood, the same drink ranged from sublime to a supreme test of my delicate control over the gag reflex - but that may be a bit more information than you would care to explore... &lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;Four days ago I power-walked 3.5 miles in the wet sand of Palm Beach in just less than 66 minutes - the day after a brisk 5 mile walk in MacArthur Park.  Everything I had been doing for the past year to regain my health and get back on my feet was like throwing stones at a brick wall - one step ahead, three steps back.  But this rarified regimen under Dr. Gary Tunsky, N.D. has taken me not only to a new level of physical strength but to a new level of awareness that I could not have comprehended inside the localized perspective that usually constrains our everyday lives.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;I have made an observation over the past two years: when you are in pain, you meet many others in pain who are now free to discuss their infirmities with a fellow traveler.  What did many of us have in common?  We all shared symptoms that followed the servicemen and women who were in the Gulf War.  But I was never in the Gulf War - and neither were many of them.  However, they were in the military during the Gulf War, and they were vaccinated for anthrax and other "bugs" that one might encounter in the battle theatre.  Those vaccinations were the subject of a televised five-hour congressional hearing that exposed the common thread in all Gulf War syndrome cases that the Government has relentlessly attempted to bury.  So what do the Gulf War vets and I really have in common?  &lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;I took two barrages of reportedly "required" vaccinations in preparation for a different battle theatre - mission trips to Nigeria and Uganda.  Within months, an arthritic condition began to manifest in my lower extremities for which the Veterans Administration hospitals and clinics could not find a cause - even with MRI technology and every analytical test that both my VA doctors and myself could dream up.  Every VA doctor I saw asked if I had served in the Gulf War because I had similar symptoms to other veterans who were currently being treated.  But I did not begin to comprehend it until I put together the puzzle pieces gathered from across the nation and a very disturbing picture was revealed.  It was, at first, disconcerting, but it is now undeniable that my eyes were being opened by Heaven to understand another critical layer of Babylon the Great - the Mother of Harlots.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;We had a very brilliant producer/editor in our office who had two sharp young boys who were destined to fill the ranks of the engineers on both sides of their family - that was until they both received the multiple vaccines recommended by their pediatrician.  Now those young men are mentally disabled, autistic shadows of their former selves.  At the Feast of Tabernacles in October I mikveh-ed (baptized) over 100 people, including Fred and Rhonda and their two sons.  Several years had passed since I had seen the boys, who were, at the time, full of life and intelligence - that was before they received the recommended childhood vaccinations that left both of them mentally maimed and severely autistic.  They are in there somewhere behind those eyes, but they are out of reach.  When I returned to the office in Michigan, Nathan had just finished painting our studio interior.  A few years ago his two daughters were above average, vivacious, intelligent, and fully engaged real daughters.  Today, they are the victims of a vaccination "epidemic" that is mentally and physically destroying another child every 10 minutes in America.  Only a Divine miracle can reach these children now - BUT NOT UNTIL AFTER WE HAVE LEARNED THE LESSON OF THE PHARMAKIA OF BABYLON!!!!&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt; "...for thy merchants of Babylon were the great men of the earth, for by thy sorceries (pharmakia - artificially compounded drugs that imitate nature) were all nations deceived." The Revelation 18:23&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;Last night I listened to a news report detailing the personal stories of eight women who were all healthy and in their third trimester of pregnancy.  For most of these young women, it was not their first pregnancy, and there were no complications or concerns.  Within days of receiving the highly recommended swine flu vaccination, every one of these girls was in a trauma center having their dead babies surgically removed from their wombs.  My stomach and heart turned.  &lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;Of course, the official word from the sorcerer's lawyers is that "the vaccination had nothing to do with the death of these babies."  What else would you expect the sorcerer's apostles to say?  The same sources originally insisted that neither the Gulf War Syndrome (which has claimed the lives of over 20,000 servicemen and women and maimed thousands more) nor the "inexplicable" autism epidemic that is currently destroying one out of 67 children in America has any correlation to deliberately injecting toxic adjuvants, living animal viruses, and the DNA of unclean animals directly into the bloodstream of a human being.  &lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;My God, people, we are not even supposed to be ingesting the char-broiled muscle tissue of these putrid creatures!  If we ate the forbidden flesh of pigs and monkeys, and tainted chickens and cows, our immune systems would have the chance to revolt and hopefully vomit out the prohibited and contaminated creatures - but we have allowed the white-coated sorcerers of Babylonian pharmakia to talk us into injecting an attenuated virus cultured in these unclean beasts directly into our bloodstreams!!  What in hell were we thinking!!!  We were not thinking - and our parents, ignorant of the Torah, put our lives in jeopardy by submitting to the sorcerer's system.  In the 1950's children received three vaccinations.  Now the sorcerers are giving our babies over 68 injections of cell, genome, and mind-altering pharmacological agents before they reach the age of 12!  &lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;Remember the black plague that killed tens of millions in Europe?  At the time, the Jews were blamed for somehow initiating the plague because they remained healthy while tens of millions of "Christians" dropped like flies.  Did the Jews receive a "secret vaccination" cultured in a monkey or a pig in order to avert the plague?  No, they obeyed the commandments concerning diet and hygiene as stipulated in the Torah!  You cannot avoid the diseases of the Gentiles if you are in rebellion against the Creator and His instructions.  If you participate in the pharmakia of Babylon, you will, as I have, also participate in the plagues associated with the sorcerer's system.  I have repented, and I am now reversing the ravages.  I am thankful that I can now be a provision for you before the brimstone hits the fan in earnest.  You too can reverse the ravages of Babylon, but it will mean changing your lifestyle forever - you can't just pop a pharmacological agent, say a magical prayer, and make everything alright.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;The great men of the earth only get away with their lies until their lawyers are brought into court and it is proven that they have covered up facts to deliberately deceive the public.  Now Bioshield II legislation (S.1873 introduced by pharmaceutical stockholder Senator B. Hussein Obama in 2007) will shield pharmaceutical companies from liability and prosecution when an unelected bureaucrat deems that everyone should receive a forced injection under the guise of public safety.  No wonder the pharmaki-ists poured so much money into Obama's presidential election coffers - the sorcerers wanted a "change" even they could believe in.  &lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;Even though thousands of Americans are currently suing these satanic sorcerers for their deadly intravenous concoctions - and winning - it may soon be illegal to charge the pharmakia industrial complex for vaccine-induced damages to their maimed children.  But even now, the financial slap on the wrist that these merchant sorcerers receive does not begin to dent the thousands of billions they rake into their sordid multi-national treasuries.  Hell is going to be much fuller than I at first considered.  The pharmakia sorcerers and their apprentices may actually outnumber the crooked lawyers and deceptive politicians when the last antinomian is finally thrown into the flaming lake...&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;Those who are still living in the religious and pharmakia world of Babylon will take extreme offense at my preceding paragraphs.  Good!  I was hoping to offend you!!  Your beloved system is going to kill you with their therion - or at least do its best - but your blood is not on my hands.  In the scroll of Genesis, Abraham was commanded to "come out of Babylon," and Abraham's children by faith are likewise commanded to "come out of Babylon," as recorded in the book of The Revelation of Yahshua Messiah.  So, just what part of "come out of Babylon" do you not understand?  &lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;Much to the chagrin of Job's comforters and my venomous detractors, I remain resolute that the suffering I have endured over this season is not due to some secret sin in my life.  Now that I have begun my journey back to full vitality, I am convinced that the maladies which have plagued me have transpired so that both you and I will understand what is going on in the world of Babylonian pharmakia, and that you too (and your vaccine-damaged children, grandchildren, nieces, nephews, friends, and strangers) can reverse the debilitating repercussions of willingly taking part in Babylon's plagues through ignorance and media-manipulated choices.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;We knew about the manufactured plague that is now spreading through the Ukraine over two months before the first outbreak was seen in the hospitals.  We received a call from the Ukraine through our German office.  The Ukraine is shut down and its citizens quarantined.  It is reported by citizens on the ground that 24 hours after the onset of symptoms, people are dead.  They were calling this epidemic "the swine flu."  The U.S. media is ignoring the situation by direct orders.  You will find out about this when and how "the great men" determine you should be manipulated by it.  Most of you will be lining up at your local high school or church to receive your mandated injections.  There are alternatives - but you must learn to think outside the Babylonian box.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;Most people do not really want to hear what I am required by Heaven to speak, but you will disregard the warnings at your own peril.  We still have freedom to move about the country, and I need you to get to Dallas and take back the information shared at Hanukkah to your areas.

Participants in the Black Death scenario were faced with a fictional, intentional plague attack involving countries from their region, with the exercise designed to assist them in identifying critical co-operation and co-ordination issues which could hinder a quick and successful response to such an attack in real life.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;http://www.theflucase.com/index.php?option=com_content&amp;amp;view=article&amp;amp;id=1688:who-part-of-plague-bioterrorism-qexerciseq-in-eastern-europe-one-month-before-plague-appeared&amp;amp;catid=41:highlighted-news&amp;amp;Itemid=105&amp;amp;lang=en &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Now a month later, they have a REAL outbreak of the pneumonic plague.  So far over 870,000 people have been infected, over 39,000 are hospitalized &amp;amp; over 100 have died.  Isn't this what we heard when H1N1 broke out here in the U.S. back in April?  Except the death toll we were told was going to be in the thousands.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;http://www.recombinomics.com/News/11060901/Ukraine_4X.html&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Another website is calling this a bio-engineered weapon.  And they are saying the deaths are over 1,000.  And again, it looks like this virus is going after our young adults &amp;amp; children.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;http://socioecohistory.wordpress.com/2009/11/07/ukraines-pneumonic-plague-a-new-strain-of-flu-many-times-more-lethal-than-h1n1/&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;http://translate.google.com/translate?prev=hp&amp;amp;hl=nl&amp;amp;js=y&amp;amp;u=http://www.moz.gov.ua/ua/main/press/?docID=13995&amp;amp;sl=uk&amp;amp;tl=en&amp;amp;history_state0=&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Now please keep in mind a few things.  Back in February, vials of a flu virus were being transported to underground labs in government facilities.  Then all of a sudden we have an outbreak of H1N1.  The 1918 Pandemic was H1N1, over 40 million people died.  Everyone who was vaccinated died in this pandemic.  The death rate from H1N1 has gone UP since the H1N1 vaccine has come out.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sIVI5g2y-XQ&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;http://www.recombinomics.com/News/07140901/H1N1_1918_Human_Swine.html&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Baxter, who is a major supplier of the H1N1 vaccine applied for a patent for the vaccine back in Aug. of 2008.  &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;http://www.scribd.com/doc/18224172/Baxter-H1N1-Vaccine-Patent-Application&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Now a lab has combined the H1N1 &amp;amp; H5N1 viruses to see if the combination of the 2 strains will make a deadlier virus.  Now the question is - WHY?  Are we going to see another flu strain outbreak soon that is a combination of those 2 viruses?  &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;http://www.fightbackh1n1.com/2009/10/cdc-mixes-h1n1-h5n1-viruses-in.html&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;A sequence of events has been going on for over a year now.  Are these events being put into play so as to push a mandatory vaccine agenda with absolutely no way to get out of them?  Meaning, exemptions will no longer be allowed, even medical exemptions?  &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The health care bill passed the house this afternoon.  In the health care bill, in order to receive medical treatment you must be up to date on your vaccinations.  If you are not, you must be brought up to date or you will be denied health care.  This is socialism to the core.  Let us pray that it doesn't pass the senate &amp;amp; get signed into law.  &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;There are many topics that need to be covered quickly this week.  So there will be more than one update.  Keep up to date on the Ukraine situation via alternative news sites &amp;amp; this one.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;http://dprogram.net/2009/11/06/ukraine-and-world-pneumonic-plague-information/&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Stay healthy &amp;amp; safe my friends.  We are in for a long &amp;amp; bumpy ride.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Lori&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6621852627307570680-5807464684792745994?l=vaccinefreehealth.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://vaccinefreehealth.blogspot.com/feeds/5807464684792745994/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://vaccinefreehealth.blogspot.com/2009/11/ukraine-outbreak.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6621852627307570680/posts/default/5807464684792745994'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6621852627307570680/posts/default/5807464684792745994'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://vaccinefreehealth.blogspot.com/2009/11/ukraine-outbreak.html' title='Ukraine Outbreak'/><author><name>Lori</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02020193395139759551</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-OYx57iOhGhY/Tfb8ol7u1zI/AAAAAAAAABA/JmagmNaYEZA/s220/nojab.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6621852627307570680.post-9089404099286995473</id><published>2009-10-24T22:26:00.000-05:00</published><updated>2009-10-24T22:41:54.409-05:00</updated><title type='text'>National Emergency Declared over the Swine Flu</title><content type='html'>&lt;p&gt;Friday, Oct. 23rd., Obama signed a document declaring a National State of Emergency over the Swine Flu.  This could be good or bad.  As of right now, I do NOT see this going to mandatory vaccines unless a state of martial law is declared.  This state of emergency has been declared because of the shortage of vaccines &amp;amp; huge outbreaks all over the country.  I can attest to this because this last week, my daughters school had 29% of the school population missing because of sickness.  I attribute this to the fact that a teacher came to school sick &amp;amp; told her students to stay away from her.  Hello!!  Am I the only parent that is ticked off about this?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;This declaration opens up federal channels that were not open before.  Nurses do not need to ask as many questions of patients before beginning treatment.  Insurance restrictions with Medicare &amp;amp; Medicaid are no longer there which means that the neediest of our U.S. population will get the treatment they need without all of the bureaucratic red tape that there is normally.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Here is a link to a website that is updated every 4 minutes.  It shows the cases of flu on a state by state basis &amp;amp; also where we stand in relation to other countries worldwide.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;http://www.flucount.org/&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;What is the best way to stay healthy?  Wash your hands frequently, especially if you have been out in the public venues.  Stay away from doctor offices if you possibly can, not only can you get sick from others BUT also get pressured to "vaccinated".  Take LOTS of Vit. D3.  Recent studies have shown that Vit. D deficiency increases your likelihood to sick or die from the flu.  Here is a chart to recommended doses.  &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;http://i226.photobucket.com/albums/dd52/mopar28m/vitd9.jpg&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I'm going to be watching this very closely &amp;amp;

that we would NOT have a choice in the matter.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I'm going to be watching this very carefully as we all know that court rulings can be overturned &amp;amp; then sent back to the lower courts for reconsideration &amp;amp; so on.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;My advice to you that was said by a doctor who is also a lawyer I know is type up a exemption letter, sign it in front of a notary as to your objections to vaccines.  Children have exemptions forms for schools, adults don't.  My whole family will be signing theirs on Friday in front of a notary stating our religious exemption to vaccines.  Religious exemption because of the unclean animals involved (Lev. 11 &amp;amp; Acts 15).  Also, the swine flu vaccine is being made on aborted fetus cells, we believe life begins at conception &amp;amp; that abortion is wrong in all cases, we object on religious grounds in this area also.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I will be on a retreat Oct. 4th thru the 13th.  WiFi will be available where we will be at.  If things develop during that time, I will try to update this blog.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Have a safe weekend!&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Lori&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6621852627307570680-7543042857384808812?l=vaccinefreehealth.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://vaccinefreehealth.blogspot.com/feeds/7543042857384808812/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://vaccinefreehealth.blogspot.com/2009/09/huge-news-for-anti-vaccine-movement.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6621852627307570680/posts/default/7543042857384808812'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6621852627307570680/posts/default/7543042857384808812'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://vaccinefreehealth.blogspot.com/2009/09/huge-news-for-anti-vaccine-movement.html' title='HUGE news for the anti-vaccine movement'/><author><name>Lori</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02020193395139759551</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-OYx57iOhGhY/Tfb8ol7u1zI/AAAAAAAAABA/JmagmNaYEZA/s220/nojab.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6621852627307570680.post-1425406273311486774</id><published>2009-08-30T22:06:00.000-05:00</published><updated>2009-08-30T22:27:01.484-05:00</updated><title type='text'>Swine Flu - Mandatory or Not</title><content type='html'>&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I'm going to keep this blog entry short, sweet &amp;amp; to the point this time.  I've been researching the Swine Flu Vaccine very heavily this month, this is why I haven't posted since the first of the month.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;ALL indications in my research point to this fact, the Swine Flu Vaccine will NOT be made mandatory.  There was a story on ABC news tonight that said there will NOT be a compulsory vaccine for the Swine Flu.  HOWEVER, they can require a 6 day quarantine to prove you are NOT infected with the Swine Flu virus.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Here is a link to the article.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;http://abcnews.go.com/Health/SwineFluNews/story?id=8437630&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Go to page 2, paragraph 2.  &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Also, please go this website that is run by Dr. Sherri Tenpenny, the nations foremost expert on vaccines.  Print off all 43 pages &amp;amp; then go to page 38 &amp;amp; highlight the paragraphs where it says the program is VOLUNTARY &amp;amp; always has been.  Keep this handy in case they do try to make it mandatory at your door.  This bill is called Division E.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;http://drtenpenny.com/Documents/Division_E.pdf&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Dr. Tenpenny also has a newsletter that I highly recommend you subscribe to as does Dr. Eisenstein.  (homefirst.com) Both are very informative to keep you abreast as to what is going on in the world of vaccinations.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Medicalvoices.org is an excellent website that is providing an outlet for many different doctors on various subjects.  You can also sign up for free webinars that last about an hour &amp;amp; have slides to go with them.  I've been listening in since March &amp;amp; I learn something new everytime I listen, even if its subject that I've already heard. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Til next time, stay safe &amp;amp;

The 1976 swine flu vaccine was mandatory. The program only ran 2 weeks &amp;amp; it was cancelled. Many people were killed or injured as a result of the swine flu vaccine. Only 1 person died as a result of the swine flu itself. Gerald Ford was shown on national TV as taking the swine flu vaccine. I can't prove this but many doctors who are speaking out against the swine flu program have said that he received water or saline solution, he didn't receive the swine flu vaccine itself.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Here is a link to the swine flu story that was only aired once on 60 minutes back in 1976.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M7oL7wdQqKQ&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This swine flu isn't going to be any different than 1976. They are only testing this swine flu for 21 days. 21 days isn't long enough to know the long term affects of this vaccine. 21 days isn't enough time to know how much brain damage a person is going to have or other injuries. This testing period is too short. They are giving testing recipients vaccines on Day 1 &amp;amp; Day 21.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;http://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT00943631?term=H1N1+vaccine%2C...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This vaccine is going to have thimerosal, chicken embryos, formaldehyde, gelatin (pork based) &amp;amp; other chemicals. No where in the ingredients does it list the swine flu or other flu ingredients. Its all chemicals &amp;amp; unclean animals. This vaccine is also being cultured on the retinas of aborted fetus'.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/news/2273506/posts&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If the unclean animals don't turn you away in accordance with Lev. 11 then using aborted fetus cells should. Also, Acts 15:19-21, we are to abstain from food polluted by idols, sexual immorality, strangled animals &amp;amp; BLOOD!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When they scrape the cultured vaccines from these unclean animals, there in no doubt there is some blood in the culture. Especially if it was not bled properly to begin with.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Here we have at least 2 biblical examples of why we are NOT suppose to get vaccines. Now, what about the health aspect of it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Vaccines have been proven medically AND scientifically to cause ischemic strokes, brain damage &amp;amp; other problems with the human body. Why hasn't this info been shown in MSM (mainstream media), because this doctor has been black balled by the medical community &amp;amp; their income. The pharmaceutical industry is a 1 TRILLION dollar a year industry. They will do anything to protect it. Doctors &amp;amp; clinics are paid premiums if the majority of all of their patients are vaccinated. This is why they push so hard to for their patients to get their vaccines. Here is a link to the doctor that has proven vaccines are causing ischemic strokes &amp;amp; autism.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;http://brainguardmd.com/&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Doctors are given very little education about vaccinations in college. I have a pre-med book here. Its 650 pages long only 4 pages are dedicated to immunology &amp;amp; vaccines. ONLY 4!!! You would think that a topic this important they would do more teaching on it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This statement was made by a medical college professor that stopped giving vaccines back in 1973.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;http://s226.photobucket.com/albums/dd52/mopar28m/?action=view&amp;amp;c...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Childhood diseases were on their way down when the vaccines for them came out. Better nutrition, better sanitation &amp;amp; better water has contributed to the decline in childhood diseases, not vaccines.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;http://s226.photobucket.com/albums/dd52/mopar28m/?action=view&amp;amp;c...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Flu &amp;amp; pneumonia death rates have gone UP since so many people are getting the flu &amp;amp; pnemonia shots.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;http://s226.photobucket.com/albums/dd52/mopar28m/?action=view&amp;amp;c...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Many states have religious, philosophial &amp;amp; medial exemptions. The ones to have are religious or medical as philosophical can be thrown out the window at any given time &amp;amp; then you need to get a different exemption belief.

 What is this "wonder drug" really doing to the young girls &amp;amp; women who get it?  Lets explore this &amp;amp; find out the facts.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Many doctors will tell you that this drug was tested for 5 years before it was put on the market.  This is a bold faced lie.  It is still being tested &amp;amp; the safety testing won't be complete until September of 2009 &amp;amp; its being used on girls today!!  This vaccine was only released in 2006, the long term affects on young girls &amp;amp; women who get this won't be known for a very long time.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;http://www.fijitimes.com/story.aspx?id=103122&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;What are the ingredients in this vaccine?  How is this for vaccine ingredients - Roach killer, aluminum, Polysorbate-80.  Are these ingredients we really want to be injecting into our children?  Aluminum is a neuro-toxin &amp;amp; Polysorbate-80 is known to cause infertility in mice.  Gardisil has caused 28 miscarriages in women who have received the shot but yet the FDA nixes further safety reviews.  &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;http://www.associatedcontent.com/article/921099/gardasil_vaccine_ingredients_roach.html?cat=70&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;http://www.yourlawyer.com/articles/read/13457&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;What is the FDA hiding?  The highest incidence of death relating to this vaccine is within a week after receiving this vaccine.  See page 17.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;http://www.cdc.gov/vaccines/recs/acip/downloads/mtg-slides-oct08/12-3-hpv.pdf&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The FDA has known for years that HPV does NOT cause cancer, most cases of HPV will take care of themselves. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;http://trenches.wordpress.com/2008/03/14/the-gardasil-scam-hpv-does-not-cause-cancer/&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;This vaccine has caused death in those that have received it.  It has caused deaths to babies that died before they even had a chance to live outside the mothers womb.  It has caused injuries, paralysis &amp;amp; basically destroyed many young girls lives.  &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;http://www.naturalnews.com/024774.html&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;My mother-in-law called our home one evening wondering if we were going to get our daughter the HPV vaccine.  We told her no way.  She hasn't gotten any other vaccines, so why would we get her this one?  (We have a religious exemption)  I have seen first hand what this vaccine does to young girls who get it.  Dizziness, weakness, mental impairment &amp;amp; basically unable to function for quite a few days after receiving it.  I almost pulled one cheerleader out of the homecoming parade because she was having problems that was caused by the Gardisil shot!  The doctor told her that the shot was mandatory, all of the girls who got it were told that.  They were surprised when my daughter said she didn't get it, she got her sports physical done by a chiropracter, therefore no vaccines to deal with.  Dr. Mayer Eisenstein said in a webinar that any doctor who says that the Gardisil shot is mandatory is bordering on malpractice.  I couldn't agree more.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;You must remember one thing about the company that made this vaccine - Merck.  This is the same company that made Vioxx.  Does everyone remember this fiasco?  Vioxx killed thousands, millions was paid in damages to the families of those affected.  I took this drug also, but I didn't like the way it made me feel, so I stopped after just a few doses.  &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The commercial you see on TV says "one less girl affected by cervical cancer".  Giving girls this vaccine is telling them to go out &amp;amp; have sex freely, you're protected.  Its telling them, you don't need a pap smear, you got the Gardisil shot.  Since cervical cancer is for the most part, a slow growing cancer, an annual pap smear will catch it in the early stages when its treatable.  Although this test can produce false positives &amp;amp; false negatives, a 2nd run of the test, especially if it comes back positive should be done.  My mother-in-law had a false positive, she was at Mayo Clinic all prepped for surgery &amp;amp; the doctor came in &amp;amp; said they made a mistake, that it was negative instead of positive.  She was relieved but mad because they drove 4+ hours for nothing.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;This weeks blog is filled with emotion.  I watched a story on a local TV station about a young girl who received the Gardisil shot &amp;amp; was injured because of it.  The reporter went on to interview doctors who said that the shot is safe &amp;amp; no deaths have been associated with this vaccine.  This couldn't be further from the truth.  I emailed the reporter &amp;amp; was given a short reply thanking me for my time for emailing her &amp;amp; thanks for watching.  She wanted no correction.  Sad.....&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;http://www.whotv.com/news/who-story-gardasil-safety-072009,0,6312162.story&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;http://illinoisreview.typepad.com/illinoisreview/2007/05/3_hpv_vaccine_d.html&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I will continue to spout off on the dangers of vaccines as we are commanded to in the bible.  (Lev. 19:16-17)  &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Til next week, stay safe &amp;amp; do the good fight.  &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Lori&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6621852627307570680-4652664704672864861?l=vaccinefreehealth.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://vaccinefreehealth.blogspot.com/feeds/4652664704672864861/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://vaccinefreehealth.blogspot.com/2009/07/gardisil.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6621852627307570680/posts/default/4652664704672864861'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6621852627307570680/posts/default/4652664704672864861'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://vaccinefreehealth.blogspot.com/2009/07/gardisil.html' title='Gardisil'/><author><name>Lori</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02020193395139759551</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-OYx57iOhGhY/Tfb8ol7u1zI/AAAAAAAAABA/JmagmNaYEZA/s220/nojab.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6621852627307570680.post-3910327379470990876</id><published>2009-07-13T22:32:00.000-05:00</published><updated>2009-07-13T23:00:29.934-05:00</updated><title type='text'>Scriptural references in the battle against vaccines</title><content type='html'>&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;My husband &amp;amp; I had the pleasure of hearing Nehemia Gordon &amp;amp; Keith Johnson speak on their new book, A Prayer To Our Father Sunday night in the Twin Cities.  If you get a chance to hear them,  I highly recommend you go.  &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Everyone who follows the dietary laws that are laid out in Lev. 11 know which animals are clean &amp;amp; which are not.  There are many unclean animals in vaccines along with aborted fetus cells now.  This is a nightmare for those who are trying to live according to Gods' way laid out in the bible.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt; Acts 15:20 - But that we write unto them, that they abstain from pollutions of idols, and from fornication, and from things strangled, and from blood.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Since these vaccines are being cultured on these unclean animals &amp;amp; then scraped off of them, the blood of these animals is bound to be within these vaccines.  &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Lev. 17 tells us not to eat the blood of animals.  The Polio vaccine can be an oral vaccine or injected, depending on the doctors preference.  Again, these cultures are grown on unclean animals &amp;amp; then scrapped off to put into a vaccine.  Aborted babies are being slaughtered &amp;amp; their parts being offered to idols. (Eze. 16:21)  I can hear you saying, what idols?  The bible tells us we can't have 2 gods.  Money can be a god to many people &amp;amp; industries.  And if you remember, I said in my first entry, that the pharmaceutical industry is a 1 TRILLION dollar a year industry.  Therefore, I do consider that an idol since money is put above the love for fellow man.  &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I often wondered in my Torah walk, if my being so outspoken against vaccines was in accordance with Torah.  I wondered if maybe I should have just let God handle things in his own time &amp;amp; in his own way.  Nehemia showed us last night that we need to speak out against evils - otherwise we are missing the mark or the Het &amp;amp; therefore sinning.  Lets look at Lev. 19:17:&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;17  You shall not hate your brother in your heart; but you shall surely rebuke your neighbor, lest you incur sin because of him.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I am rebuking the vaccine industry, to &lt;strong&gt;stop the cover up of the dangers of vaccines&lt;/strong&gt; &amp;amp; to &lt;strong&gt;come clean about what is actually in them!&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Til next week,&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Lori&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6621852627307570680-3910327379470990876?l=vaccinefreehealth.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://vaccinefreehealth.blogspot.com/feeds/3910327379470990876/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://vaccinefreehealth.blogspot.com/2009/07/scriptural-references-in-battle-against.html#comment-form' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6621852627307570680/posts/default/3910327379470990876'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6621852627307570680/posts/default/3910327379470990876'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://vaccinefreehealth.blogspot.com/2009/07/scriptural-references-in-battle-against.html' title='Scriptural references in the battle against vaccines'/><author><name>Lori</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02020193395139759551</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-OYx57iOhGhY/Tfb8ol7u1zI/AAAAAAAAABA/JmagmNaYEZA/s220/nojab.jpg'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6621852627307570680.post-6782031743702469335</id><published>2009-07-05T22:27:00.000-05:00</published><updated>2009-07-06T17:40:20.192-05:00</updated><title type='text'>Pandemic</title><content type='html'>&lt;p&gt;Pandemic - This word strikes fear in the heart of many people.  Visions of thousands or millions of people dying from a sickness brings back memories in many people.  The 1918 flu pandemic is the one that most people remember.  At least 40 million dead.  What really brought on these pandemics?  Did a "vaccine" really protect those that received it?  Will the swine flu vaccine this fall really protect us or will it be the 1976 Swine flu fiasco all over again?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt; What causes pandemics?  Sanitation?  Too close of proximity with animals?  Vaccines against the flu?  A change in the DNA make up of the flu?  There are many possibilities.  But we do know one thing, it has been at 91 years since the last major pandemic outbreak.  &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Did a vaccine really protect those who got it?  Lets look to the 1918 flu pandemic.  Over 40 million died during this pandemic.  This one came in waves, the first wave was mild, it disappeared over the summer but then returned in the fall.  This wave is the one that killed over 50 million people.  The vaccinated ones were the ones who sick.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;http://www.whale.to/vaccine/sf1.html&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Many people dropped dead in doctors offices after getting the vaccine.  This still happens today when girls get the Gardisil shot that is supposed to protect them from cervical cancer but instead it ends up killing them.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The 1976 flu outbreak started at Fort Dix among vaccinated soldiers.  It then spread, but more were injured &amp;amp; died from the vaccine than died from the flu.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;http://undertheradarmedia.wordpress.com/2009/04/27/do-not-take-a-swine-flu-vaccine/&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The flu vaccine doesn't prevent you from getting the flu.  It can do just the opposite.  Everyone I know that gets the flu shot ends up getting sick?  Why is this?  Because it is a live, weakened virus.  The injection bypasses the bodys natural way of dealing with germs by going directly into the bloodstream instead of thru the stomach where the stomach acids can break it down &amp;amp; get rid of it naturally.  This years flu vaccine is going to be no different than 1976.  Here is a video from 1976 that was on 60 min. regarding the swine flu.  Truths you won't hear from the controlled media.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;http://www.dailymotion.com/relevance/search/cbs+60+minutes%2C+swine+flu+vaccine/video/x9mh9f_swine-flu-1976-propaganda_webcam&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Part of the swine flu vaccines that are coming out this fall are going to ones that are shot up the nose.  This will help spread sickness faster as when a "vaccinated" person sneezes, this virus that was just shot up the nose will come out &amp;amp; infect others.   www.medicalcountermeasures.gov&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;With all of the chemicals, poisons &amp;amp; unclean animals (in accordance with Lev.  11) that are put into vaccines.  Its time to No Thank you.  Vaccines have been proven repeateadly not to work.  &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;What is the best way to avoid sickness?  handwashing, avoiding crowded places &amp;amp; avoiding sick people whenever you can &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Is there something more I can do?  We have a saying around our home, Vitamin D, Vitamin D, Vitamin D&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Taking Vitamin D3 is the best way to boost your immune system.  The average american has between 15  &amp;amp; 18 nanograms/ml of blood.  To avoid sickness &amp;amp; most cancers, you need at least 50 ng/ml of blood.  This table shows what you need.  &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;http://i226.photobucket.com/albums/dd52/mopar28m/vitd9.jpg&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I can personally attest to the fact that vitamin D3 does work in boosting your immune system &amp;amp; keeping sickness at bay.  I take 10,000 IU/day.  When the rest of my family is sick, I usually get sick too.  Not this year.  :)  &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Get educated about this swine flu &amp;amp; the coming pandemic.  They are going to try to make it mandatory.  You do have rights.  Dr. Mayer Eisenstein is going to have a webinar on July 15 with a vaccine rights lawyer.  This lawyers name is Allen Phillips.  Please sign up &amp;amp;

autism have the same symptoms.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;http://www.vaccinationnews.com/scandals/feb_15_02/comparison_symptoms.htm&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;You say, but mercury was removed from vaccine years ago.  This is what the medical community wants you to believe.  In actuality, it is still there under a different name - Thimerosal.  This dangerous additive is 50% mercury by weight.  Mercury is toxic in any form, it doesn't matter if its ethylmecury, methymercury or something else.  Mercury is toxic to living tissue.  How many of you remember the antiseptic Merthiolate?  This had mercury in it.  When Eli Lilly made vaccine with mercury in it, they had to put the skull &amp;amp; cross bones on it.  Why?  Because mercury was considered a poison back in the 30s.  Aluminum is another heavy metal that accumulates in the brain &amp;amp; causes damage.  &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Dr. Andrew Moulden, www.brainguardmd.com, has proven conclusively that vaccines cause ischemic strokes &amp;amp; brain damage in children.  If you look at a picture of kids before &amp;amp; after vaccines, their facial features change.  It might only be temporary or it might be permanent depending on how hard the stroke was.  When an adult has a stroke, their mouth or eyes might droop, they loose their ability to talk or walk.  This is happening to children also.  They go into autism, which is just a post-stroke state.  &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;By the time a child reaches the age of 2 months, they have received over 1,875 mcg of mercury via vaccines.  A toxic dose of mercury is 20 mcg.  What is America doing to its children?  Its time to stop the insanity!&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;With each vaccine there is a hazard tax.  This "tax" that you pay when you receive a vaccine, this tax money goes into a fund called the VAERS fund.  This stands for &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;V&lt;/strong&gt;accine&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;A&lt;/strong&gt;dverse&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;E&lt;/strong&gt;vent &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;R&lt;/strong&gt;eporting &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;S&lt;/strong&gt;ystem&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;This system is updated by doctors who reported the adverse reactions of vaccines.  Only 10% of reactions are reported because they don't want to endanger the vaccine program.  &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;This is the way that the vaccine program works.  There is an advisory board to the CDC that tells them what vaccines to give &amp;amp; when.  90% of these board members are stock holders in vaccine companies.  They are required to fill out paperwork showing they don't have a vested interest in vaccines being made, but the paperwork isn't filled out completely by these board members &amp;amp; follow up is rarely done.  &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The pharmaceutical industry is a &lt;strong&gt;1 TRILLION&lt;/strong&gt; dollar industry!  Don't you think that they will do ANYTHING to protect that income?  That is why they won't allow the cheaper canadian drugs into the U.S.  Yes, they are in charge of "safe" drugs to be consumed by the American public.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Vaccines are about money, not the health of the U.S.  I hope you will take a look at the links &amp;amp; think about them.  Remember the Vioxx scandal a few years ago?  It was made by the Merck drug company.  Now, the latest vaccine Gardisil is made by Merck also.  20 deaths &amp;amp; thousands of injuries have resulted as a result of this vaccine.  Deaths have occurred in girls as young as 9.  The person who made this vaccine said she never intended for it to be given to people younger than 18.  &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;With the new swine flu vaccine coming out this fall.  Think long &amp;amp; hard about the safety of your family.  Google 1976 flu vaccine, this program was a fiasco.  This too was a mandatory vaccine but was dropped after only 2 weeks.  &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I will cover how to improve your immunity &amp;amp; how to help you heal if you do get the vaccine.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Till next week, &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Lori&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6621852627307570680-1647021082244530676?l=vaccinefreehealth.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://vaccinefreehealth.blogspot.com/feeds/1647021082244530676/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://vaccinefreehealth.blogspot.com/2009/06/vaccine-dangers-101.html#comment-form' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6621852627307570680/posts/default/1647021082244530676'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6621852627307570680/posts/default/1647021082244530676'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://vaccinefreehealth.blogspot.com/2009/06/vaccine-dangers-101.html' title='Vaccine Dangers 101'/><author><name>Lori</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02020193395139759551</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-OYx57iOhGhY/Tfb8ol7u1zI/AAAAAAAAABA/JmagmNaYEZA/s220/nojab.jpg'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6621852627307570680.post-1071330101078248939</id><published>2009-06-21T21:19:00.000-05:00</published><updated>2009-06-21T21:37:53.006-05:00</updated><title type='text'>An introduction</title><content type='html'>&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I'm going to start off with a disclaimer.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I'm not a doctor or a nurse.  I haven't had any formal medical training.  I have spent plenty of time in hospitals both as a visitor &amp;amp; as a patient.  &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The purpose of this blog will be to inform people of the dangers of vaccines &amp;amp; also to keep you up to date on the Swine Flu &amp;amp; the upcoming Swine Flu Vaccine.  &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I'm a 39 year old mom of 2 kids.  Neither one of them have had any of their vaccines.  They have missed less school than their vaccinated counter parts.  We've only had to deal with one childhood illness - chicken pox.  I was 21 &amp;amp; my son was 11 months old.  We had it at the same time.  This was before there was even a chicken pox vaccine.  We both got thru it.  I didn't even have my husband at home at the time.  He was out driving semi 6 days a week.  &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I have 3 nieces that are fully vaccinated.  They have numerous health problems &amp;amp; lots of hospitalizations.  Asthma, ear infections, pneumonia all plague these girls.  I've tried to teach my in-laws about the dangers of vaccines but they listen to my husbands parents that you have to have vaccines in order to be protected.  In this blog, I hope to show you just the opposite, that vaccines cause sickness, not prevent it.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I plan on updating this no later than Sunday evening of each week.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6621852627307570680-1071330101078248939?l=vaccinefreehealth.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://vaccinefreehealth.blogspot.com/feeds/1071330101078248939/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://vaccinefreehealth.blogspot.com/2009/06/introduction.html#comment-form' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6621852627307570680/posts/default/1071330101078248939'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6621852627307570680/posts/default/1071330101078248939'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://vaccinefreehealth.blogspot.com/2009/06/introduction.html' title='An introduction'/><author><name>Lori</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02020193395139759551</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-OYx57iOhGhY/Tfb8ol7u1zI/AAAAAAAAABA/JmagmNaYEZA/s220/nojab.jpg'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry></feed>
