Say No to the Swine Flu Vaccine

Swine Flu is not a new virus strain, it has a history in this country that started in 1976. The media, the pharmacuetical companies producing the vaccine and the CDC would like us to believe that the current strain of Swine Flu could become an epidemic as big as the flu virus in 1918 that killed more than 675,000 Americans.

According to the CDC, "In 1976, 2 recruits at Fort Dix, New Jersey, had an influenzalike illness. Isolates of virus taken from them included A/New Jersey/76 (Hsw1n1), a strain similar to the virus believed at the time to be the cause of the 1918 pandemic, commonly known as Swine Flu." The CDC claims that the virus quickly spread to more than 200 recruits, creating alarm and on March 10, 1976, the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices of the United States Public Health Service decided mass vaccination was necessary.

What is not discussed much in the news is that the decision to vaccinate "every man, woman and child" ended up a disaster. The Swine Flu never became pandemic and more than 200 people ended up with Guillain-Barré Syndrome. Guillain-Barre is a disorder in which the body's immune system attacks part of the peripheral nervous system. This causes muscle weakness and eventual paralysis...and there is no cure!

So how can we protect ourselves from Swine Flu and all other Flu virus strains without getting vaccinated?

1. Improve your diet! Eat more plant foods and far fewer animal foods. There is science behind a plant based diet. It improves immune system health and protects us from degenerative diseases. Read The China Study by T. Colin Campbell. Add an extra layer of protection by taking a Whole Food supplement. I personally recommend Juice Plus.

2. Drink more water! We need at least half our weight in ounces daily. Drinking water hydrates our body and flushes out toxins. It creates an alkaline

3. Get Sunlight. We need 20-30 minutes of exposure to sunlight without suncreen daily. This creates natural Vitamin D which strengthens our immune system.

4. Exercise Daily. We need 45 to 60 minutes of exercise daily in our target heart rate. Vigorous exercise improves and maintains immune system health. Yoga and Meditation, which are less vigorous than running for example, also contribute to a strong immune system.

5. Get 8 hours of Sleep Daily. If you cannot get 8 hours, make sure you are taking an afternoon nap instead of having a cup of coffee or processed food snack. Caffeine and processed foods weaken the immune system.


Take responsibility for your health! Vaccines are the lazy person's approach to wellness. Short term a flu vaccine may or may not protect you from the flu. Long term, the toxins from the vaccine remain in your cells and do nothing to promote long term health.
