Vaccines and Your Children

Jock Doubleday, director of the California non-profit corporation Natural Woman, Natural Man, Inc, has offered $75,000 to the first medical doctor or pharmaceutical company CEO who publicly drinks a mixture of standard vaccine additives.

The additives will be the same as those contained in the vaccines recommended for a 6-year-old according to US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) guidelines, and the dose will be body-weight calibrated. It will include, but not limited to:

- Thimerosal (a mercury derivative)
- Ethylen glycol (antifreeze)
- Phenol (a disinfectant dye) and aluminum
- Benzethonium (a disinfectant)
- Formaldehyde (a preservative and disinfectant)

On August 1, 2007, when no one had taken the challenge, the offer was increased to $90,000 and will continue to increase at a rate of $5,000 per month until someone accepts.

Not surprisingly this offer has been on the table since 2001, but no one has been willing to take in that toxic chemical cocktail – except for the children who innocently go in for their routine vaccinations.

Vaccine Fillers and Ingredients
In addition to the viral and bacterial RNA or DNA that is part of the vaccines, here are the fillers: aluminum hydroxide, aluminum phosphate, ammonium sulfateamphotericin, Banimal tissues: pig blood, horse blood, rabbit brain, dog kidney, monkey kidney, chick embryo, chicken egg, duck egg, calf (bovine) serum, betapropiolactone, fetal bovine serum, formaldehyde, formalin, gelatin, glycerol, human diploid cells (originating from human aborted fetal tissue), hydrolized gelatin, monosodium glutamate (MSG), neomycin, neomycin sulfate, phenol red indicator, phenoxyethanol (antifreeze), potassium diphosphate, potassium monophosphate, polymyxin B, polysorbate 20, polysorbate 80, porcine (pig) pancreatic hydrolysate of casein, residual MRC5 proteins, sorbitol, sucrose, thimerosal (mercury), tri(n)butylphosphate, VERO cells, a continuous line of monkey kidney cells, washed sheep red blood cells

Do your homework before vaccinating – the drug companies won’t do it for you. Drug companies are not on your side. Their primary motivation is in making profits, and if that means covering up side effects to make you believe a vaccination is safe, they will likely do it.

Remember, you do have the right to refuse vaccinations, and there are two basic axioms you should never forget.

1. Nobody, anywhere or any time and under any circumstances has the right or power in this country to immunize you or your children against your will and conviction. If they attempt to do so, you can legally charge them with ‘assault with a deadly weapon’ and have the full resources of the law behind you.

2. At all times in attempting to avoid unwanted immunization, you have the Law of the Land behind you. Those who would try to vaccinate you against your will are on very shaky ground. Into every compulsory immunization law in America are written legal exceptions and waivers, which are there specifically to protect you from the attempted tyranny of officialdom. It is not only your right, but your obligation to use them, if this is what your conscience tells you.

While all 50 states have immunization requirements, 28 allow parents to opt out for medical or religious reasons. Another 20 states allow parents to opt out for personal or philosophical reasons as well.

Backpack Safety

Since most kids are heading back to school this month, now is the time to think about backpack safety. Chiropractors, pediatricians and orthopedic surgeons alike agree that backpacks are a problem for a child’s spine. While a backpack alone may not cause major problems, overloading and improper carrying of a backpack can lead to headaches, neck, shoulder and lower back pain.

How heavy is too heavy?
Many children are carrying up to 40 lbs and are hurting themselves. A child carrying more than 10-15% of his or her body weight can suffer from severe neck, back and shoulder pain, headaches and other spinal discomfort; not to mention aggravate pre-existing spinal conditions such as scoliosis.

Warning Signs a backpack is too heavy:
· Change in posture when wearing backpack
· Struggling when putting on or taking backpack off
· Pain when wearing backpack
· Tingling or numbness
· Red marks

A child weighing:
· 50 lbs should carry no more than 7.5 lbs
· 80 lbs should carry no more than 12 lbs
· 100 lbs should carry no more than 19.5 lbs
· 150 lbs should carry no more than 22.5 lbs

Tips for safe backpack use:
· Wear both straps
· Wear the backpack over the strongest mid-back muscles — the size of the backpack should match the size of the child. The backpack should rest evenly in the middle of the back and the shoulder straps should be adjusted so that it’s easy for the child to take the backpack on and off without difficulty.
· Lighten the load — a heavy backpack forces the wearer to bend forward. Use the 15% rule, and be sure that the heaviest items rest against the back.
· Use proper lifting techniques — bend at the knees and use your legs to lift the backpack placing one shoulder strap on at a time.

Chiropractic Kids Month

For the entire month of August all kids will receive a FREE Exam and X-rays at Triangle Chiropractic. So with that in mind I wanted to share a few fun facts about kids and chiropractic.

Did you know:

· Children under chiropractic care get fewer ear infections, fewer absences in school and are healthier, in general.
· Some subluxations can be genetic.
· Adults need chiropractic care to get healthy—children need chiropractic care to stay healthy.
· Chiropractic care can give your kids a better shot at life!
