HEALTH TIP FOR THE WEEK: 
The verdict is out on flu shots. Many medical experts now agree it is more important to protect yourself and your family from the flu vaccine than the flu itself. Let’s take a look at the reasons behind this verdict:
1.)
 There is a total lack of real evidence that  young children even 
benefit from flu shots.  A systematic review of 51  studies involving 
260,000 children age 6 to 23 months found no evidence  that the flu 
vaccine is any more effective than a placebo. Also the  shots are only 
able to protect against certain strains of the virus,  which means that 
if you come into contact with a different strain of  virus you will 
still get the flu.
2.)
 Medical journals have published thousands of  articles revealing that 
injecting vaccines can actually lead to serious  health problems 
including harmful immunological responses and a host of  other 
infections. This further increases the body’s susceptibility to  the 
diseases that the vaccine was supposed to protect against.
3.)
 Ever noticed how vaccinated children within days  or few weeks develop 
runny noses, pneumonia, ear infections and  bronchiolitis? The reason is
 the flu virus introduced in their bodies  which creates these symptoms.
 It also indicates immuno-suppression i.e.  lowering of the immunity. 
The flu vaccines actually do not immunize but  sensitize the body 
against the virus.
4.)
 Its a known fact that Flu vaccines contain  strains of the flu virus 
along with other ingredients. Now think about  the impact such a vaccine
 can have over someone with a suppressed immune  system? If you have a 
disease that is already lowering your body’s  ability to fight a virus, 
taking the flu shot will put your body in  danger of getting the full 
effects of the flu and make you more  susceptible to pneumonia and other
 contagious diseases.
5.)
 The Flu vaccines contain mercury, a heavy metal  known to be hazardous 
for human health. The amount of mercury contained  in a multi-dose flu 
shot is much higher than the maximum allowable daily  exposure limit. 
Mercury toxicity can cause memory loss, depression,  ADD, oral health 
problems, digestive imbalances, respiratory problems,  cardiovascular 
diseases and many more such serious health ailments.
And what about the elderly? Can the flu vaccine help them?
6.)
 There is mounting evidence that flu shots can  cause Alzheimer’s 
disease.  One report shows that people who received  the flu vaccine 
each year for 3 to 5 years had a 10-fold greater chance  of developing 
Alzheimer’s disease than people who did not have any flu  shots.  Also 
with age the immune system weakens, thus lowering your  ability to fight
 off infections. Introducing the flu virus in the bodies  of elderly 
could have dangerous consequences.
Can we trust the authorities who are promoting the wide-spread use of flu vaccines?
7.)
 The Center for Disease Control appoints a  15-member Advisory Committee
 on Immunization Practices (ACIP).  This  committee is responsible for 
deciding who should be vaccinated each  year.  Almost all the ACIP have a
 financial interest in immunizations.  It’s all about the money and may 
have very little to do with your health  and well being.  The very 
people pushing these vaccines stand to make  billions of dollars.  This 
itself creates a doubt on how effective these  flu vaccines really are?
8.)
 Research shows that over-use of the flu-vaccine  and drugs like Tamiflu
 and Relenza can actually alter flu viruses and  cause them to mutate 
into a more deadly strain.  Couple this with drug  resistant strains and
 you have virtually no benefits with much risk.
9.)
 There is enough evidence that shows that the  ingredients present in 
the flu vaccinations can actually cause serious  neurological disorders.
 In the 1976 swine flu outbreak, many who got the  flu shots developed 
permanent nerve damage. Flu vaccines can contain  many harmful materials
 including detergent, mercury, formaldehyde, and  strains of live flu 
virus. Is this what you want to put in YOUR body?
10.)
 Trying to guess what strain to vaccinate  against each season has 
proved to be no more effective than a guessing  game.  This has been 
very true in recent years with the H1N1 strain.  Moreover getting 
multi-shots will only prove more dangerous as different  strains of 
viruses and harmful ingredients are introduced into your  body.
Flu
 shots are indeed more dangerous than you could think, and it is  best 
to rely on natural ways to protect against the flu rather than  getting 
yourself vaccinated.
Isn’t
 it interesting that the main stream public health officials  never 
promote the various proven ways to avoid the flu other than  through 
vaccination?  How about spending some of the billions of  advertising 
dollars teaching us natural ways to boost our immune systems  and avoid 
the flu without harmful and sometimes deadly vaccinations.
