Estimate of Situation: Current Threat Assessment:
Codex and Beyond…

An Administration of Change? Where?
FDA Acts to Attack Health Freedom – Again, and Worse!
PYRIDOXAMINE: THE BEGINNING OF THE END FOR DSHEA?

Before discussing the Vitamin B-6 ban, let’s briefly review FDA’s policies and initiatives that threaten health freedom and why DSHEA (the Dietary Supplements Health and Education Act – 1994) is so important to your health freedom and why it is so much of a threat to the FDA.

DSHEA says that supplements and herbs are to be considered as food. Because they are food, there can be no limitation on dose, leaving the door open for the high potency supplements we enjoy so uniquely in the United States. Protected supplments, etc., are defined as those items available for sale and use in dietary supplements before June, 1994 (when DSHEA went into effect). The list of grandfathered substances was complied by the NNFA (now NPA) and accepted by the FDA. It defines the DSHEA protected substances and has been a core of health freedom as it pertains to supplements in the US since the law was passed.

The FDA is now unilaterally denying the fact that the list protects substances and acting to continue and accelerate the process of destroying access to high potency supplements upon which so much of our Natural Health options rest. Here’s the process the FDA is following:

First, in 2007, Congress rewards FDA for its failures by increasing its power. This was done through Sen. Kennedy’s FDA “enabling act” although our vigorous efforts (thank you!) did get the “DSHEA product savings clause” 1011 added to the bill. This important clause specifically exempts all DSHEA products from any provision in the bill.

Second, in 2008, FDA askes for public comments on how the “DSHEA product savings clause” applies to section 301(11) of the act which gives FDA authority to ban foods that are being studied for use as “treatment of disease.” The simple legal answer, of course, is that the section in question has no relationship whatsoever to DSHEA products since the entire law has no impact on DSHEA products.

We of course submitted our comments objecting to this evisceration of DSHEA and tens of thousands of Natural Solutions Foundation’s Mighty Mouse Warriors did likewise…

Read more at: http://www.healthfreedomusa.org/?p=1956

Third, a prior “Citizens Petition” from a pharmaceutical company is used by FDA as the excuse to ban a specific form of B6 (Pyridoxamine), negating the critically important 1994 NNFA Grandfather List of Dietary Ingredients for DSHEA is introduced. This opens all supplements to similar bans.

Fourth, comments are sought on the idea that FDA can ban any nutritional product it likes from interstate commerce despite legislative protection through the specific legislative prohibition preventing the FDA from doing so for products covered under DSHEA…

Read more at: http://www.healthfreedomusa.org/?p=1956

Again, our valient Mouse Warriors took the challenge and clicked in large numbers to tell the FDA that we value both the rule of law and the protections of this bill for DSHEA products.

Fifth, , in Europe, the EFSD meets to discuss maximum permitted levels (MPLs) of nutrients …

Sixth, based on another one of those “citizens petitions” from favored “consumer” groups, EPA expresses its intention to ban topical nano silver despite the fact that it has already been approved as an efffective, inexpenisve and higly effective surface cleaner…

Seventh, FDA seeks to eliminate all nutrients and objects from health use which have had any study about them published of any sort whatsoever – this is the ultimate import of the dangerous section 301(11) of the act.

Eigth, FDA/CODEX seeks to eliminate all nutrients which have not had met an artificial “Significant Scientific Agreement” standard that violates DSHEA’s commercially reasonable standard of “competent and reliable scientific evidence.”

And the beat(ing) goes on…

Read more at: http://www.healthfreedomusa.org/?p=1956

But back to Pyridoxamine. FDA’s “response” as noted above, to the position that DSHEA protects dietary supplements from the unfair tactic of some pharmaceutical company conducting a “study” of the ingredient for medical use and then using that to ban the competing natural substance, was to throw down the gauntlet at the feet of the industry and ban a legal, grandfathered nutritional supplement ingredient…

Read more at: http://www.healthfreedomusa.org/?p=1956

It’s our opinion that what we – health freedom advocates, industry and the consumers of the United States, together need to protect access to high potency supplements. It is also our opinion that we must engage in a concerted campaign to Divest the FDA (and the USDA) of Food Regulatory Authority. Congress has, at least three times before, divested FDA of authority it was misusing or failing to exercise well enough, when DEA, EPA and CPA were created.
How much more FDA mis-regulation can consumers and the industry survive? How much more FDA-mis-regulation will consumers tolerate? Are we ready to act?

So there we have it: either the FDA is divested of food authority or we will, bit by bit, then larger bit by larger bit, lose our access to high potency, advanced nutrition.

Divest the FDA!

I’ve posted another detailed example of why the FDA must be divested of its food authority before its mismanagement causes even more harm on our Health Freedom Blog ( http://www.healthfreedomusa.org/?p=1961 ). The Federal Government’s obscene “don’t ask, don’t tell” policy regarding GMO (genetically modified organisms) “food” creates the conditions for a mega-disaster of unimaginable severity.

Plant Based Vaccines Under Development World Wide

Once genetic material migrates from a modified plant or animal into other plants, animals, insect, or what have you, that migration is permanent except for one thing: the DNA is not stable so it literally “jumps around” causing novel proteins to be expressed.

Novel proteins, or proteins which have never existed before during the course of all life on this planet, have novel impacts. Read that as “infertility”, “sterility”, “cancers”, “auto-immune diseases”, “Joint and connective tissue diseases”, “neurological diseases”, “fetal death”, “failure to thrive”, “infant mortality”, etc. Babies in utero are particularly susceptible to the impact of these “novel proteins”, but no one is immune.

Worse, the genes have no stable place to reside in the DNA of whatever cell they are working in this week so they move from place to place to place inside the nucleus of the cell, causing the resident genes to change their functions and produce yet more novel proteins…

Plant Based Vaccines Under Development World Wide

Once genetic material migrates from a modified plant or animal into other plants, animals, insect, or what have you, that migration is permanent except for one thing: the DNA is not stable so it literally “jumps around” causing novel proteins to be expressed.

Novel proteins, or proteins which have never existed before during the course of all life on this planet, have novel impacts. Read that as “infertility”, “sterility”, “cancers”, “auto-immune diseases”, “Joint and connective tissue diseases”, “neurological diseases”, “fetal death”, “failure to thrive”, “infant mortality”, etc. Babies in utero are particularly susceptible to the impact of these “novel proteins”, but no one is immune.

Worse, the genes have no stable place to reside in the DNA of whatever cell they are working in this week so they move from place to place to place inside the nucleus of the cell, causing the resident genes to change their functions and produce yet more novel proteins.

Now ask yourself what happens if vaccine-producing plants (or industrial-product producing plants – the issue is identical) mingle their pollen with the plants that produce your food and the food of the animals of this planet. The USDA has reduced the already close-to-non-existent controls on industrial plant growth next to, and contaminating, food plants. For example, for 5 years Bayer’s Crop Science vaccine rice was growing next to, and contaminating, food rice in Louisiana. Bayer knew about it (perhaps the USDA did, too – we do not have that information) and said nothing.

When the contamination was discovered, Bayer was not fined or sanctioned by the US Government and the contaminated rice was simply sold to the US Military for its troops in Iraq (!!!). US Military labs detected the contamination and the rice was then sold to sub Saharan African countries like Ghana. There, in every rice market that was tested, the contaminated rice was found. Poor people, buying their daily food, were eating poisoned rice, courtesy of the Biotech Industry, Bayer Crop Science (from Beyer, the same corporation that knowingly sold HIV contaminated blood fractions in Europe when they could not sell them in the US) and the US Government. But if you are buying food, especially prepared food, in the US, you are in exactly the same position: poisoned “food”, lacking any notification or labeling of that poisonous status, is being sold to you as if it were wholesome and fit for human consumption because of the total failure of the US Government to protect your health or the integrity of the food supply from commercial – and worse – interests.

The Natural Solutions Foundation has created the International Decade of Nutrition, www.NaturalSolutionsFoundation.org, to reclaim the production of food. The US Government is on the other side: industry interests and conflicts of interest make the US Government, according to all assessments, including the US Congress’ most recent report on the subject, totally unable to resist industry pressure and totally unwilling to clean house in order to become a health promoting system. Indeed, FDA scientists have openly appealed to President Obama for help in allowing them to do their job: being science to the regulation of safety.

Reformation after reformation, new agency after new agency, staff shuffle after staff shuffle have failed to weaken industry and strengthen either science or sense in the government regulation of food. ENOUGH! Our lives and our children’s lives are at stake. The Natural Solutions Foundation is once again leading the way by identifying the problem and providing the natural solutions: the system is broken beyond repair. No amount of patchwork will repair it. It is time for the failed US Government to relinquish its failed mission of food safety and regulation to the smaller governmental units which are closer to the will of the people: State governments.

Remembering that NO science of safety is PERMITTED for genetically modified “foods” in the US, remembering that patents on GMOs are based on outdated and invalid scientific premises, remember that the US Supreme Court was packed beforehand in order to grant patent rights to Monsanto, and remembering that well over 80% of the US population would prefer not to eat GMO “food” although more than 90% of the American food stock is contaminated with GMO “food”, the following article should arouse a strong response.

The stunning disregard for science and safety shown by the US Government at the behest of the food-related industries is almost too large to take in at one gulp. Biotech “foods”, approved by the FDA, USDA and Codex, as they are, represent a major threat to health, indeed, to life on this planet.

None of the agencies tasked with responsiblity for food safety and food regulation in the United States are either capable or willing to provide meaningful safety or health-based regulation. After deadly decades, it has become clear that they cannot be reformed and that
1. The USDA must be dissolved
2. The FDA must have its food regulatory responsibility removed from it as environmental protection, consumer safety and narcotics and dangerous drug responsibility was removed from it to create separate government agencies
3. Another federal agency will not protect food and the health of the American people since conflict of interest and corruption run too deep.
4. Regulatory responsibility for food must be turned over to the States, consistent with their Constitutional mandates and rights so that the impact of the people, from whom regulatory authority comes, is far closer to the exercise of regulatory authority.

The Natural Solutions Foundation invites you to join us in the 2009 Health Freedom Campaign to Divest the US Government of its Food Regulatory Responsibilities in order to return assurance of food safety and health protection to the States and, hence, to the People. For more information on the Campaign to Divest the US Government of Food Regulation, click here (http://www.healthfreedomusa.org/?p=1601).

Please write to divestgovernment_food@gmail.com to indicate your interest in this special, life-saving campaign. We are planning a webinar on the topic and would like to keep you informed. Your email information will not be shared with anyone else and will be kept confidential by the Natural Solutions Foundation, www.HealthFreedomUSA.org. Please indicate “Divest” in the subject line and we will notify you when the webinar will take place.

Campaigns like this are costly. All donations to the Natural Solutions Foundation are tax deductible and an astonishing 100% of all donations goes directly to the work of the Natural Solutions Foundation since all overhead is donated and the Trustees take no salaries. Click here (http://www.healthfreedomusa.org/?page_id=189) to give generously to help us help you by mounting an effective campaign to divest the US Government of its food regulatory authority and returning it to the People so that we can prevent the gross disregard for our well being, and the nightmarish destruction of our food and our health which the US regulatory structure allows.

Worldwide team set to develop plant-based livestock vaccines
Written by Lautaro Vargas
Wednesday, 28 January 2009

DEVASTATING: A ruptured oral vesicle in a cow with foot and mouth disease
DEVASTATING: A ruptured oral vesicle in a cow with foot and mouth disease
Norwich based scientists are heading up an international collaboration that aims to develop plant-based vaccines for some of the most devastating diseases to afflict the world’s livestock.

Avian flu, foot and mouth disease and blue tongue are just some of the diseases targeted under the EU-funded project, led by Prof George Lomonossoff of the John Innes Centre (JIC) in Norfolk and backed by further participation from teams in Russia and South Africa.

Using a new system that lowers the time required to conduct the experiments from months to weeks, plants will be stimulated into producing specific proteins, which can subsequently be assessed for their value as vaccines.

It is the time taken for production of these proteins that has been accelerated, which means that large-scale screening for candidate vaccines is now within reach.

The partners say they have now shown that plant-based vaccines production and assessment is possible, and safe.

Professor Konstantin Skryabin, coordinator of the Russian laboratories for the PLAPROVA (Plant Produced Vaccines) project, said the development of new techniques for expression of vaccine proteins in plants is a very important topic for Russia.

He said: “Russian scientists have already obtained promising results and international collaboration in this field will contribute to the success of plant-based systems.”

PLAPROVA will utilise transient expression techniques to temporarily stimulate plants into over-producing proteins, which can subsequently be assessed for their value as vaccines.

Though plants have been used to produce pharmaceuticals in this way before, technical constraints have prevented their value from being fully realised.

The group say a few candidates with proven vaccine ability have been produced and, although these proteins are effective at preventing disease, they have limited commercial use as they are in competition with existing conventional products. They have, however, shown that plant-based vaccines production and assessment is possible and safe.

Initially, the consortium will concentrate on diseases of importance to farming in both the EU and Russia, which includes avian influenza, blue tongue, foot and mouth disease and porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome.

Proteins identified through this screening programme will be developed for large-scale production and ultimately low-cost production of effective vaccines.

Overall project coordinator Prof Lomonossoff, said: “The consortium brings together the leading laboratories from the EU, Russia and South Africa working to produce useful proteins from plants, and this international cooperation is central to the success of the project in battling diseases that affect us all.”

“Change”? FDA Acts to Attack DSHEA

January 29th, 2009

PYRIDOXAMINE: THE BEGINNING OF THE END FOR DSHEA?
From the Vitamin Lawyer Health Freedom Blog:
http://vitaminlawyerhealthfreedom.blogspot.com/2009/01/change-fdas-plan-to-destroy-dshea.html

Before discussing the Vitamin B-6 ban, let’s quickly review FDA’s policies and initiatives that threaten health freedom.

First, in 2007, Congress awards FDA for its failures by increasing its power. This was done through Sen. Kennedy’s FDA “enabling act” although the Health Freedom movement did get the “DSHEA product savings clause” 1011 added to the bill.

Second, in 2008 FDA asked for public comments whether the savings clause applies to section 301(11) of the act, that gives FDA authority to ban foods that are being studied for use as “treatment of disease.” We of course submitted our comments objecting to this evisceration of DSHEA and thousands of Natural Solutions Foundation’s Mouse Warriors did likewise.

Third, a prior “Citizens Petition” from a pharmaceutical company is used by FDA as the excuse to ban a specific form of B6 (Pyridoxamine) to negate the 1994 NNFA Grandfather List of Dietary Ingredients for DSHEA and open all supplements to similar bans is introduced.

Fourth, comments are sought on the idea that FDA can ban any nutritional product it likes from interstate commerce despite specific legislative prohibition preventing the FDA from doing so for products covered under DSHEA – that is, dietary supplements and herbs in use before June, 1994. Such products are “grandfathered” in after inclusion on a list prepared by the NNFA (now NPA) at the request of the FDA when DSHEA was passed. Natural Solutions Foundation and thousands of net roots supporters remind FDA that such actions are illegal under section 311(11) of the 2008 FDA Reorganization act following successful Natural Solutions Foundation efforts to maintain language protecting DSHEA products in the bill when in the Congressional conference committee.

Fifth, , in Europe, the EFSD meets to discuss maximum permitted levels (MPLs) of nutrients — (1) some countries support what the the Codex Vitamin and Mineral Guideline, ratified July 4, 2005, prohibitis: MPLs based on a multiple of the biologically unsound, extremely low Recommended Daily Allowance (RDA), (2) the EU wants upper limits based on “Risk Analysis” that would limit levels to below that needed to have any biological effect [even a beneficial one] following the World Health Organization’s Guidance to Codex Alimentarius on how to apply the toxicological method of Risk Analysis to nutrients and (3) certain advocacy groups support a limit based on a safety analysis, which could lead to similarly low levels. The fourth position, which Natural Solutions Foundation champions, is based on the principle of biochemical individuality, supported by extensive clinical and scientific data through orthomolecular science, is that there is, and must not be, any upper limits set for foods: nutrient supplements are foods!

Sixth, based on another one of those “citizens petitions” from favored “consumer” groups, EPA has expressed its intention to ban topical nano silver, despite having previously approved it for topical use as a safe, effective sanitizing agent with no negative environmental impact! If forbidden as an “untested pesticide” The equipment used to produce nano silver is also to be banned as an “untested pesticide”! Once topical nano silver is banned, how long will it be before ingested silver supplements will also be banned?

Seventh, FDA seeks to eliminate all nutrients and objects from health use which have had any study about them published of any sort whatsoever – this is the ultimate import of the dangerous section 301(11) of the act.

Eigth, FDA/CODEX seek to eliminate all nutrients which have not had met an artificial “significant scientific agreement” standard that violates DSHEA’s commercially reasonable standard of “competent and reliable scientific evidence.”

And on it goes…

But back to Pyridoxamine. FDA’s “response” as noted above, to the position that DSHEA protects dietary supplements from the unfair tactic of some pharmaceutical company conducting a “study” of the ingredient for medical use and then using that to ban the competing natural substance, was to throw down the gauntlet at the feet of the industry and ban a legal, grandfathered nutritional supplement ingredient. Here is what the Natural Produces Association said about the ban:

FDA responded “to a citizen petition filed on behalf of a pharmaceutical company. FDA has determined that products containing pyridoxamine, a form of vitamin B6 (the letter specifically cites ‘pyridoxamine dihydrochloride or any other compound containing pyridoxamine”) are not dietary supplements within the meaning as indicated by DSHEA…’ and ‘may not be marketed as such.’ In a confusing twist, the agency goes on to clarify that although pyridoxamine is a dietary ingredient …FDA has determined by the petition that pyridoxamine is excluded… because: 1. Pyridoxamine is authorized for investigation as a new drug … and 2. there is no “independent, verifiable evidence” of prior marketing of pyridoxamine as a food or dietary supplement; this includes the Natural Products Association’s (developed as NNFA) list of grandfathered ingredients. …this development presents a number of problems, including the agency’s interpretation of §301 (ll) of the FFDC Act”

NPA asked for help proving that Pyridoxamine is in fact “grandfathered” under DSHEA, that is, it was sold to supplement the diet or was part of the food chain in June, 1994. For over 20 years the industry has relied on the NNFA grandfather list, now deemed no longer “evidence” by FDA fiat, without hearing, or court oversight.

Here is the gist of my response back to NPA about this ban of a legal, grandfathered nutritional supplement ingredient:

xx—–xx—–xx
I work with [name of company redacted], one of your NPA members. At our President’s request I’ve been reaching out to some of the “old hands” in the industry [such as Dr. Fleischner] about the Pyridoxamine ban and DSHEA grandfathering. [the President and I are co-trustees of the Institute for Health Research, www.inhere.org – I am also a trustee of Natural Solutions Foundation, www.globalhealthfreedom.org]

Here is what Dr. Albert Fleischner, PhD responded:

“Pyridoxamine has always been regarded as a vitamin and is listed in the early
Remingtons and USP as such.”

Dr. Fleischner is a pharmacist and formulator [MS and PHD from Rutgers and formerly an operating officer for pharmaceutical and nutraceutical companies].

Meanwhile, the good folks at [a well known foundation] have also contacted me about this issue and I hope we can all work together to stop this obvious misapplication of 301(11).

Late last year when it became apparent that FDA was seeking to ignore the DSHEA savings language in the 2007 FDA “enabling act” (Section 1011) we reacted by urging opposing comments to be filed with FDA under Docket No. FDA-2008-N-0389

See may blog entry..
http://vitaminlawyerhealthfreedom.blogspot.com/2008/11/emergency-fda-usda-attacking-foods.html

So FDA’s response to the comments supporting a broad reading of Section 1011 has been to test how far it can push the industry, by banning Pyridoxamine.

How far can it push the industry? It’s been our opinion at Natural Solutions Foundation that the industry has failed to see the “writing on the wall” and has failed to rally to protect its fundamental interests. Is it finally ready
now?

The November 2007 Congressional study of FDA showed that it is a failed agency; its efforts to “regulate” nutritional products and natural remedies through the 2006 infamous anti-CAM draft guidance was called “an abuse of FDA authority” by Dr. Ron Paul.

It’s our opinion that what we – industry and the consumers of the United States, need to protect their access to high potency supplements is a concerted campaign to Divest the FDA of Food Authority. Congress has, at least three times before, divested FDA of authority it was misusing, when DEA, EPA and CPA were created.

Can the industry survive more FDA mis-regulation?

You Want to do WHAT to My Baby? Are You Mad? Vaccination and Health

January 25th, 2009

The following article makes the point quite clearly that vaccinations are neither safe nor effective. When challenged to provide substantiation for your position on vaccines, you might find this short and effective piece useful.
The reason that the Natural Solutions Foundation entered a Citizens Petition (which is a legal challenge to the Government’s position) with the Federal Trade Commission calling for a ban on all material and advertising across State Lines which claims or implies that vaccines are safe, effective, or have been scientifically demonstrated to be so is because none of these conditions is true: they are NOT safe, NOT effective and NOT effective. Further, they have been shown to damage and degrade immune functions.
Infant vaccination is even more dangerous than vaccinations in older kids and multiple vaccinations are insanely dangerous. If you want to kill people or damage them permanently while making a fantastic profit, vaccination is the perfect vehicle. Now, just why does someone want to vaccinate that baby?

Please join the Natural Solutions Foundation’s Health Freedom Action eAlert (http://www.healthfreedomusa.org/?page_id=187) and the No-Forced-Vaccination Yahoo! Forum (http://groups.yahoo.com/group/no-forced-vaccination/join).

Of course, this type of education and activism is not free and we need your support. Here’s how:
1. Make your tax deductible donation to the Natural Solutions Foundation by clicking here (http://www.healthfreedomusa.org/?page_id=189). Recurring donations of both large and small amounts are especially appreciated.
2. Purchase Valley of the Moon(TM) Coffee (http://www.ValleyoftheMoonCoffee.org). It is shade grown, GMO free, pesticide free, herbicide free, fungicide free and brings you the chance to help bring chemical free coffee to the people of Latin America while you wake up to health freedom. For each donation of $25 per 1/2 lb bag (and coffee of this quality sells for $26.00 per lb. IN PANAMA) we will thank you with a $20 tax deduction AND a 1/2 lb of the best coffee you have ever tasted.
3. Support your health, the wellness industry and the Natural Solutions Foundation at the same time when you visit www.Organics4U.org, our all-organic health and wellness store.

Why Would Anybody Have Their New-Born Baby or Child Vaccinated?
By Dr. Aisha Hamdan

“Immunizations the best thing to protect your child from a variety of diseases.”

You hear this from your doctor from the media, from the brochures in the clinic, from your friends. But, did you ever stop to think twice about what it all means?

Did you ever look deeper into the issue and the other side of the story?

Well let’s read on…..

Your child is just born and one of the first things you do is call the clinic to schedule an appointment for your first “well-baby” visit. During the visit, after about 1 or 2 months, you can expect your baby to be weighed, measured, and put through excruciating pain from several shots in the leg. Your baby has just received his first immunization (or vaccination) shots and you allow it to happen without even questioning. It is just assumed that your pediatrician has your best interests in mind and that immunizations are the best thing to protect your child from a variety of diseases. You hear this from your doctor, from the media, from the brochures in the clinic, from your friends. You figure that the pain your baby has just gone through is worth the protection that he receives.

But, did you ever stop to think twice about what it all means? Did you ever look deeper into the issue and read the other side of the story? (The one that is not provided by your doctor). Did you know, for example, that immunizations may cause serious side effects in children, even as serious as death? Did you know that immunizations actually weaken the immune system and make it work less effectively and efficiently? Were you aware that immunizations contain harmful chemicals that are not indigenous to the body? Did you know that your child might still contract a disease even if he or she has been immunized against?

If you have a new baby, a young child or are considering having children in the future, these are concerns that you want to investigate and learn more about. Many parents have, and they have decided NOT to immunise their children. Let us look into this matter more closely and also consider it form an Islamic perspective. The health and well being of your child may be at stake.

Myths and Realities

Myth 1. “Vaccines are effective at protecting people from diseases”

Reality: Many studies in the medical literature have documented vaccine failure. Measles, mumps, small pox, polio and Hib outbreaks have all occurred in vaccinated populations. In 1989, for example measles outbreaks occurred in schools with vaccination levels greater than 98% (Centres for Disease Control). The World Health Organization has actually found that a person who is vaccinated for measles has a 15 times greater likelihood of contracting the disease than a person who is not. The effectiveness of the whooping cough (pertussis) vaccine has been reported to be around 50%. In an incident in Kansas in 1986, 90% of pertussis cases were found to have been vaccinated. In another study of rubella, 36% of adolescent females who had been vaccinated against the disease lacked evidence of immunity by blood tests. Following the introduction of the diphtheria vaccine in various countries, incidents of the disease actually increased phenomenally. In France, there was a 30% increase; in Hungary, a 55% increase; and in Geneva, Switzerland, there was a tripling of the disease. All of this occurring after the introduction of mass compulsory vaccinations in those countries. In Australia, where vaccinations are not mandatory and only about ½ of the population receives them, the rates of illness are the same for both the vaccinated and non-vaccinated groups.

What all of these facts point to (and there are many more related to this) is that vaccinations are not as effective as people are made to believe. A person who has been vaccinated has no guarantee that he will not contract the disease and chances are that if he does, it will be at a later age when the consequences are much more serious. The truth of the matter is that when immunity to disease is acquired naturally (such as through breastfeeding or through contact at a young age), the possibility of re-infection is only 3.2%. If the “immunity” comes from the artificial means of vaccinations, the chance of re-infection is 80%. In any epidemic, only a small percentage of the population actually contracts the disease, many of them being naturally immune. If a person who has been vaccinated does not contract the disease, this proves nothing. Chances are that even without the vaccination, he or she would not have gotten the disease any way.

Myth 2: “Vaccines are the main reason for declines in disease rates”

Reality: Most declines in diseases occurred before the introduction of mass immunizations. Infectious disease deaths in the United States and England declined an average of 80% prior to vaccinations. The British Association for the Advancement of Science found that childhood diseases decreased by 90% between 1850 and 1940, long before mandatory vaccination programs. European countries that refused immunizations for small pox and polio saw these epidemics end along with countries that had mandated them. Other infectious diseases continued to decline even in the absence of vaccines for them. This included declines in tuberculosis, chicken pox, scarlet fever, typhus, typhoid and plague.

So what, you may ask, were the reasons for the decrease in diseases at this point in time. Research has found that improved sanitation and hygienic practices; along with improvements in diet and other health factors were the main contributing factors in eradication many diseases. A recent report by the World Health Organization supported this fact. The report found that “disease and mortality rates in third world countries have no direct correlation with immunization procedures or medical treatment, but are closely related to the standard of diet and hygiene.” What this means is that it is not as important to be immunized as it is to eat healthily and maintain personal hygiene and environmental cleanliness.

Myth 3: “Vaccines are completely safe for children.”

Reality: Vaccines are much more dangerous than we are even aware of. This is information that you will probably not receive from your doctor and if you child does have a reaction, it is unlikely that your doctor will report it. In 1986, the United States Congress created The National Childhood Vaccine Injury Act, which acknowledges the reality of vaccine-caused injuries and death. This law requires doctors to provide parents with information about the benefits and risks of childhood vaccines prior to vaccination and also requires doctors to report vaccine reactions to federal health officials. The Food and Drug Administration, which monitors this (along with the Centres for Disease Control and Prevention), acknowledged that 90% of doctors do not report vaccine reactions as required by law.

More than 12,000 adverse reactions to vaccines are reported each year. If the rate of under-reporting is considered, this number should be closer to 120,000. Vaccine-related deaths occurring each year may be over 1000. The compensation portion of the Vaccine Injury Act awards up to $250,000 if a child dies from a vaccination or millions in dollars to cover lifelong medical bills, pain and suffering in the case of a brain-damaged child. By 1997, more than $802 million had been awarded for hundreds of injuries and deaths (5000 cases, 700 of which were deaths). Thousands of cases are still pending and the estimated future liability for the government exceeds $1.7 billion. A portion of the money that parents pay for vaccinations goes to this congressional fund, which basically means that you are paying insurance each time your child is vaccinated.

In many cases, vaccinations are more serious than the diseases they are meant to protect a person from. The pertussis (whooping cough) vaccine is probably the most dangerous. The chances of suffering a serious adverse reaction to DPT vaccines are 1 in 1750, while the chances of dying from pertussis each year are 1 in several million. A study at UCLA found that 1 in 13 children had persistent high pitched crying after the DPT shot. One in 700 had convulsions or shock, which may cause learning disabilities or brain damage. Vaccinations, in general, have been linked to disorders of the blood, brain, skin, and nervous system. This includes encephalitis (central nervous system disorder, brain damage), paralysis, nerve inflammation, diseases of the lymph glands, skin disorders, allergies, arthritis, cancer.

National and International studies have shown a link between vaccinations and SIDS (sudden Infant Death Syndrome). One study found that the peak incidence of SIDS occurred at the ages of 2 and 4 months, the time when the first routine vaccinations are given. Another study concluded that ½ of SIDS cases (2500 of 5000) are related to vaccinations. In the mid-70’s, when Japan raised their vaccinations age from 2 months to 2 years, the incidence of SIDS dropped dramatically. The disturbing fact in the United State is that coroners refuse to check the vaccination state of SIDS victims, which makes it difficult to prove many cases.

Other important truths to consider include the fact that vaccinations actually weaken the immune system rather than strengthen it. They only focus on one aspect of the immune system, which interferes with the body’s ability to initiate a “generalized response”. Only that one particular aspect of the system will function. What this means is that the vaccinations produce immune suppression which contributes to an increased susceptibility to other diseases and infections. This may explain why the rate of childhood illness has actually increased rather than decreased in this society. Vaccinations also contain additional chemicals such as formaldehyde, mercury (thimerosal), and aluminum phosphate, which are extremely toxic substances that can lead to hazardous effects. Microscopic doses may lead to cancer, neurological damage, and even death. Several of these may accumulate in the body such that the lethality increases as the number of vaccine increase.

And the story continues. This is only the tip of the iceberg and there is a larger amount of information available for those who wish to learn more (see websites listed below). It is important that parents become educated and knowledgeable about immunizations so that they can make an informed choice rather than be manipulated by the medical establishment.

P.S. Obviously none of the 3 first people who answered this question are too ignorant to even read past the first sentence- It would be impossible to have answered this question in 30 seconds if you had read the info- HEY PEOPLE THOUGHT ASBESTOS WAS SAFE FOR YEARS TOO AND LOOK WHAT HAPPENED!!!!!!!!!!!

The Psychology & Physiology of Change… The Brainwashing of the West

January 23rd, 2009

The Psychology & Physiology of Change…
Rima E. Laibow, MD

We all learned that Pavlov taught his dogs to salivate at the ringing of a bell which they learned to associate with the appearance of food. But Pavlov taught us – and the masters of mass deception and control – much more than that.

Born in Russia on September 14, 1849, Pavlov, who died in 1936, was so important to Russia’s dictator, Joseph Stalin, that Stalin allowed him to rant and inveigh against the Soviet State without coming to harm. Not many other people escaped the Gulag for the things that Pavlov said about the State and about Stalin. There was a reason.

What did he offer to the Soviet dictatorship which was so important? Not his 1904 Nobel Prize in Physiology and Medicine, not his considerable work on the physiology of digestion and the nature of saliva.

No, the contribution which made him so valuable to the State was to establish the scientific basis of brainwashing, allowing ordinary persons to become so altered in their minds and hearts that they would subscribe to absurd, illogical beliefs. Better yet, from the State’s point of view, these absurd beliefs (“We have the best health care system in the world!”, “Our leaders know best and are protecting us.”, “The FDA and USDA can regulate food safely”, “Monsanto ‘s dominance of the food supply does not impact me.” “Despite his appointments of old ‘oparatchniks’ and globalists, Obama really offers us new hope so we should trust him.”) which, once implanted, were nearly impossible to extinguish. And, once implanted, the torturing experimenter (in the case of Pavlov’s dogs) became the object of affection and adoration. That adoration was also nearly impossible to extinguish.

By studying “Transmarginal Inhibition (TMI), which is simply nothing other than the the body’s natural tendency to shut down thought and action completely when exposed to overwhelming stress (including illness), drugs or pain, Pavlov showed how everyone, no matter what their basic temperamental type, could be forced to respond to that stress the same way, He found that individuals with different temperaments would respond on a different time table, but, unless certain mental characteristics were present, all would succumb to brainwashing and loose the ability to resist the ideas introduced to control them.

Pavlov noted that, for him, “that the most basic inherited difference. .. was [not whether but – REL] how soon [individuals of different temperaments] reached this shutdown point and that the quick-to-shut-down have a fundamentally different type of nervous system.” Rokhin, L, Pavlov, I & Popov, Y. (1963) Psychopathology and Psychiatry, Foreign Languages Publication House: Moscow.

A few weeks ago, a friend of mine brought me a book that he thought I would enjoy, Battle for the Mind, William Sargant, first published in 1957, recently republished in 1997. He was more right than he knew. I had found it remarkably interesting when I read it at the time of its first publication, and I found it even more fascinating this time. But on second reading, it was rather horrifyingly appropriate as a paradigm for what is going on in our world today: People who “should” and do “know better” are apathetic, exhausted, complacent, compliant and paralyzed.

Information on the outrages against our health and our freedom is out there. Information on the “False Flag” events of 9/11 is out there. Information on what Chemtrails are and what they are doing to us is out there. Information on the disastrous impact of GMOs, the National Animal Identification System, Conflicts of Interest in FDA, USDA and other government agencies is out there.

Information on the false science called “Virology” and the deadly, literally deadly, impact of drugs, including psychiatric drugs, is out there. Information on the raids on small, ethical supplements companies is out there. Information on the deadly impact of Codex – the under nutrition and toxicity of which will certainly kill billions of people by design – is out there. I could go on and on and on but you already see the impact: you surely get the point: fear mingled with numb helplessness, paralysis through fear and a sense of isolation, being smaller than the problem and not knowing where to turn first.

This is precisely how Pavlov’s dogs were brainwashed and broken. It is also how the great revivalists of the 18th and 19th and 20th century, including Hitler, controlled and shaped the experience of their converts – stimulation, fear, guilt, helplessness and the dizzying madness of the crowd to carry them along to complete obedience, passivity and affiliation.

Consider: Pavlov showed that:

* Every person has a breaking point, after which everyone would become part of the new psychological order and affiliate with the abusers, showing trust, affection and gratitude toward them
* Strong mingled emotions, especially those of fear and helplessness, would lead to the breaking point sooner rather than later
* Repeated, conflicting instructions or requirements lead to physical and psychological paralysis, hastening the breaking point
* Obedience and affiliation are contagious so that group think quickly and effectively replaces individual thought
* Illness, under nutrition, drugs, glandular trauma or disease all make reaching the breaking point easier and faster.

How does this apply to us? Very well. Recall that in July, 1950 a medical directive was issued in Russia which said that all medicine should be reorganized along Pavlovian lines to make the control of the populace that much easier. All news was controlled. All entertainment was controlled and all contact with real information was strictly prohibited.

Now consider us. We are perhaps the most physically ill “developed” nation in the world. We have a wretched, manipulated, scandalously non-scientific and profitable “illness care system”. We are on drugs for conditions prevented and cured by healthy food and healthy life styles: heart disease, diabetes, obesity, immune failure (including cancer) and auto immune disease, depression, obsessive compulsive, bi-polar and other disorders supposedly caused by disordered brain function. 95% of the world’s Ritalin, a drug so addictive and toxic that the World Health Organization has called for its global ban, is prescribed to US kids. The ever increasing burden of toxins injected into us as vaccines damages our immune and nervous systems at increasing, tragic rates.

Zyprexa, Paxil, Neurontin and a host of other drugs are dangerous, have no real curative impact, but poison our brain function and make us both toxic and suggestible. So does the increasingly widely used barbaric – and totally unjustified – ElectroConvulsive Therapy (ECT).

The media appears to me to be designed to function as a WMD, a “Weapon of Mass Deception” with a dizzying and confusing, manufactured news and election hype, bloody snippets of structured deception, wildly over sexed, violent “entertainment” wearing out discrimination and leading to a state of helpless paralysis precisely like the “Transmarginal Inhibition” state reached by people and dogs ready to shed their reason for brainwashed ideas. Remember, once shed, these brainwashed ideas are nearly impossible to remove.

Put that together with the neurological toxicity of fluoride, the poison that was introduced by Stalin’s scientists into the political prisoner’s water in the Gulags to make them tractable, complacent and unable to mount any kind of psychological, and therefore physical, resistance, and you have a pretty good description of the fatigue, irrational ideas and paradoxical affiliation with the aggressor that we see in the US today when we look around and ask why people are not making huge changes despite the fact that the knowledge is there.

But then the question arises, “How does one effectively resist brainwashing and is it true that eventually everyone breaks down?”

Joan of Arc was never tortured by the Holy Inquisition, but she “confessed”, none the less, to crimes that she did not commit. Why? She was taken to the dungeon where the instruments of torture were shown to her. After letting her take it all in, she was advised to “make a true answer to her crimes” in order to spare herself the horror of torture since she would ultimately confess and be burned anyway.

Is that so different from the pictures of the foreign-troop-staffed “detention centers” all over the internet and the shadow of the FEMA cars with their shackles? Is that so different from the specter of police brutality, homelessness or imprisonment among the largest prison population in the world if we raise our voices in protest about what is happening to our society, our food, our rights?

Both animals and people who will not cooperate with the experimenter or manipulator have a much better chance of resisting brain washing. Sargant noted that Pavlov had learned “When a dog sullenly refuses to pay any attention to the flashing lights and other food signals intended for his conditioning, his brain remains unaffected.” He goes on to note that any degree of cooperation leads to uncertainty and breakdown but that “the thing they [would-be brainwashers] seemed to dislike was a cold, dignified sort of air, rather expressing a certain amount of contempt for everything….

The degree of psychological ‘cooperation ‘ or ‘transference’ that can be established between the police examiner and the citizen under questioning, or the preacher and his congregation, or the political speaker and his audience, is vital to the problem [of how soon brainwavshing can be accomplished – REL]. Whoever can be roused either to fear or anger by politician, priest or policeman, is more easily led to accept the desired pattern of ‘co-operation’, even thought this may violate his normal judgment. The obstacles that the religious or political proselytizer cannot overcome are … detached, controlled and continued amusement on the part of the subject at the efforts being made to break him down, win him over, or tempt him into argument. The safety of the free world seems therefore to lie in a cultivation not only of outrage, moral virtue and logic, but of humor: humor which produces the well-balanced state in which emotional excel is laughed at as ugly and wasteful.”

I would add that the future of the free world, and the world of freedoms that we need, lies additionally in the cultivation of the realistic perception of how many we are, how powerful our conjoined voices are together and how weak, although well funded and well-placed, the other side is.

Over and over they come at us, wearing us down. Over and over we push back and they back off. Through personal attack, through lies, innuendoes, disinformation, illegal acts and dishonorable ones, they come at us because of our knowledge, and our ability to see through the lies (“Mercury is good for kids and does not cause autism”, “Herd immunity is real and you are endangering people who are already immunized if you are not”, “GMO ‘food’ is harmless and will save the world”, Fluoride is good for your teeth and has no negative side effects”, “Chemtrails are not even real”, “Nano Silver is dangerous to you and the environment”, “Nutrients have no biological impact and you get all that you need from food” and so on and on and on) is the one profound threat that they cannot overcome with their bullying and their distortion.

When we are calm, informed, disdainful of their strategies and remain aware that we are not alone, we are so powerful that we can, literally, back the other side off.

If we become so fatigued that we are paralyzed and have no energy left to resist, then the other side, like Big Brother in George Orwell’s social control, Pavlovian nightmare, will have won.

Don’t ever lose heart! Just this month [January 2009] we’ve a great victory for Health Freedom by getting our issue into the Top Ten on Change.org (with 12,062 votes). Then we got Health Freedom on the “official” Obama transition site, Change.gov. Yes, Health Freedom went “toe to toe” with all the “hot-button” social issues and made the grade!
