Vaccines
“Why should or shouldn’t my child get vaccinations?”
-
Don’t do anything just because you are told to.
Be the parent! You decide what your child needs, based on their risk and particular situation.
-
Don’t do anything based on FEAR.
Don’t be scared into any particular plan of action
Some helpful resources for your consideration:

Auto-Immune Diseases or Chronic Inflamatory Diseases
(Lupus, fibromyalgia, rheumatoid arthritis, chronic fatigue)
We recommend the following lifestyle changes:
- Exercise regularly, optimize your sleep and work to limit stress.
- Drink reverse osmosis, carbon filtered water (1/2 oz per pound of body weight). Consider adding a chlorine and flouride filter as well.
- Take omega-3 supplements. You may need anywhere from 2-10g daily.
- Probiotics. Preferably use 5-20 Billion daily. Best sources are usually health food stores. Best to take a blend containing bifidus species.
- Eat as organic and vegetarian as you can, unless you are specifically allergic to a food.
- If you have amalgam fillings or possibly a dental abscess in your mouth, consider there may be benefit to having it properly addressed. Amalgam fillings contain 45-55% mercury. Why leave mercury in your mouth when the world is working to limit the use of this heavy, toxic metal in ALL areas?
