Why Are Our Kids So Sick?
|
|
|
Ever wonder why so many have autism? Have you seen an increase in asthma and allergies? Are you aware cancer rates in children has risen 20%. Diabetes and Crohn's disease are now effecting kids. Did you know the CDC now claims 1 in 6 children have a developmental or behavorial disorder? Do you know of a child on antidepressants or mood stabilizers?
Go to the local play ground and talk to a few moms. Chances are one of their kids is experiencing an unhealthy childhood.
But why?
Although, it is true if we follow the blood line of a sick child we will often find illness in the family history but it is impossible to have a genetic epidemic. Something else must be going on. If it is not solely within the body, then outside influences must play a role.
Doctors feel a host of these ailments are autoimmune disorders. An autoimmune response is when the body produces antibodies against it's own cells and tissues. We know the body will attack invaders that can harm you like bacteria and viruses but why would the body attack itself?
Often viruses can mimic the makeup of a human cell. For instance, a certain strain of the measles virus resembles Mylein Basic Protein (MBP). The MBP is the protective coating of the brains neurons. Dr. Singh, an immunologist from Utah State University, has found elevated MBP antibodies in the cerebral fluid of children with autism. Which simply means the body is attacking it's own brain.
The CDC claims autoimmune disorders are caused by viruses, bacteria and toxic chemicals.The most common ingredients in autoimmune disorders are heavy metals such as lead, mercury, nickel and antimony. The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) states mercury is the second most toxic metal, Uranium being first. Yet. mercury is in our drinking water, in the air we breathe, in our fish and in our dental amalgams. But most horrifying is a mercury preservative, thimerosal, that is present in our childhood vaccines. The toxic metal is being injected directly into the bloodstream. Mercury has been linked to autism, ADHD, arthritis, Alzheimers, depression and more. It may not be the sole cause but it certainly contributes to a host of medical problems. When heavy metals enter the body they create free radicals. They penetrate cell membranes, altering its function or even killing the cell. Heavy metals like mercury bind to the tissues and unless removed will ultimately stay forever. Heavy metals have been attributed to high yeast levels and enzyme inhibition. This disturbs the balance of the gastrointestinal system. Thus leading to leaky gut – a damaged intestinal lining which allows harmful substances to enter the bloodstream. Most heavy metals are unavoidable since they are natural products of our environment but we are overloading our air, water and human components. We live in a toxic world.
There is arsenic on our fruits, aluminum in our toothpaste, nickel in our vegetable oils and peanut butter, formaldehyde in our facial tissues. The use of herbicides and pesticides, which were supposed to bring us abundance, instead brings us illness. Our produce is sprayed, and our livestock is poisoned. We now eat cows and drink milk that are loaded with growth hormones and steroids . Most of our meat supplies are from animals that are in dark, cramped quarters. They are no longer able to feed on sun soaked grass naturally enriched with vitamin A and D. Instead they eat soy and corn products and are constantly pumped up with antibiotics to keep them alive. Meat processing is unsanitary and animals are sick. We now have Mad Cow disease and Avarian flu. We feed our children processed foods with colorings, dyes, and flavorings. Breads and pastas are made with bleached flours. Foods are loaded with artificial sweeteners and hydrogenated fats. All of these products are unnatural, and considered "foreign" to the body. Remember…foreign invaders produce antibodies. If the gut is loaded with unnatural products and the intestinal lining of the gut is in dismay these byproducts will leak through into the bloodstream. The body’s natural response will be to attack. This is when allergies and food sensitivities arise. A headache or sleepiness can result from things such as MSG. A healthy immune system will survive the onslaught, if kept to a minimum. We are made of an incredible system in which the kidneys, liver, lymph nodes and skin remove the toxins. Toxins are eliminated through bile, urine and sweat.
But what happens when these organs are overworked? They begin to weaken and can not work at optimal levels. Toxins continue to accumulate, free radicals are formed, cells begin to die at a higher rate. You have now set up shop for bacteria and viruses to take rest. You have created a breeding ground. Viruses and bacteria surround us daily. But have you ever noticed one person seems to catch these "bugs" quite often while others seem to be unaffected? It is the over toxic person that attracts these bad boys.

Our Incredible Healing System

A typical childhood illness such as a cold, the flu, chickenpox, and measles are associated with symptoms like coughing, sneezing, runny nose etc. White blood cells are produced which creates heat (fever). If our gut is bombarded with foreign matter we vomit or produce diarrhea. Viruses such as measles are eliminated through rash.These are signs of a functioning immune system. But what does modern medicine tell us to do? Suppress the symptom. We take things like fever suppressers and cough suppressers when our lungs are trying to clean house. We try to stop the diarrhea and vomiting because it makes us uncomfortable. In essence we are denying our bodies the ability to heal. We think if the symptom goes away so does the problem. In some cases the body overcomes and bounces back but in many situations we are simply pushing the problem back into the body for it to pop up somewhere else later. We are actually encouraging the bad boys to stick around.

The So Called Disease Suppressors:Vaccines
|
|
|
Remember what we said about being "sick". Being sick or having symptoms is the immune system doing what it does best.For instance, when you obtain a virus naturally, such as measles, the body gives off signals or symptoms.It produces white blood cells, which create heat (fever), a cough, to expel any virus in the lungs, and, eventually a rash. Your skin is the largest of the detoxification organs. If you were to put the pus from the rash under the microscope you would see the measles virus. What a great system we have. The measles is being removed through the skin. The body has now built up antibodies against the measles virus and has obtained lifelong immunity.
A vaccine is a weakened version of a virus or bacterium. It is hypothesized that if a person receives the weakend version, they will not become ill but will still build up antibodies against the virus. So next time the virus comes along it will be prepared to fight it. This is known as artificial immunity. Because the vaccine is a weakened version sometimes a booster is required to obtain a higher level of antibodies or titers.
Now with an attenuated pathogen, as in the vaccine, the body will not respond in a normal fashion.. There should be no fever and there will be no rash. The virus, bacterium or toxoid does not dispel and finds a nice happy home perhaps in your gut or cerebrospinal fluid, as in the case of Dr Bradstreet's study in which measles was found in the cerebrospinal fluid of autistic children. . ( http://www.whale.to/a/pdf/bradstreet.pdf ).
The virus will remain dormant or continue to multiply till one day something triggers it. We now have an autoimmune disorder. Auto immune is when the body starts to attack itself. Remember we are built to fight off foreign entities. When the viruses or bacteria make residence in cells, which make up tissues, which make up organs, the body begins to attack these areas. This is a process that generally takes time. We may not see a reaction for days, weeks or years. At this point a vaccine connection is lost. Although many doctors and experts are fully aware of this, it is an easy admittance to ignore.
There are many reports of adverse vaccine reactions. Some are horrendous and life changing or fatal. But to have a reaction such as swelling or fever may not be so bad. Your body is saying "get the heck out of here". When a doctor recommends using Tylenol after a vaccination he is giving you poor advice. Your body was just infected (unnaturally) and views it as a foreign enemy. It’s natural reaction is to fight and eliminate.
Now what about all the other bad boys that went along with that shot? Never mind preservatives like mercury and aluminum, how about DNA and RNA from animal tissues or aborted fetal tissue in which the vaccine was cultivated on? They don’t belong in your system. The human body is not set up to combat these antigens. It has no defense mechanisms. Once again instead of being rid of they vacate in your cells, tissues and organs.
If a vaccine has components like chicken egg embryo or antibiotics and these are injected into the blood stream your body cannot separate the ingredients.It can not identify friend from foe. For instance the body does not know that the virus portion is the only one intended to be the invader. The remaining ingredients are also seen as the enemy. This is why some have allergies to eggs and antibiotics. The body remembers these intruders and sets off in attack mode.
It is not a natural process to obtain pathogens through injection. Our bodies were not intended to receive matter in this form. We naturally obtain viruses, bacteria and toxoids through our mucus membranes. We inhale them through our nose and lungs. We may ingest them through our mouths.
To obtain pathogens through our skin we need to have an open wound. It is the touching of the mucus in our mouths and eyes that allows the viruses, bacteria to enter.
Obtaining viruses naturally such as measles confers lifelong immunity. As more and more children catch it, less and less are susceptible and the epidemic begins to taper off. Also it is noted that a mother will pass her antibodies to her baby through breastfeeding. Through the proper cycle of life, outbreaks and epidemics eventaully fade or disappear.
Today, when we hear of viruses causing death is generally in third world countries. It is not the lack of vaccinations but the lack of a balanced body. With the efforts of organizations like W.H.O. vaccines are widely distributed. Many dis-eases break out in highly vaccinated areas, and many unvaccinated children never succumb to the dis-eases that we vaccinate for. But it is a fact that many in countries like Africa still suffer from problems like polio. Why? Because of the existing conditions within the individual.
It is the terrain of the host that incurs dis-ease. Many live in unsanitary conditions, lacking proper food supplies, refrigeration and sewage. Decaying cells within the body give the unfriendly germs a place to inhabit. . Without replenishing the cells with clean water, clean soil, and vital nutrients from healthy livestock and crops the body weakens and eventually loses. Weak and dying people do not need more toxins added to their system. Recommending vaccines for babies and the elderly is irrational. Babies and youngster’s immune systems are not very strong. They are still developing. That is why we have so called "childhood diseases". Their bodies are growing and learning how combat and recognize infection. When the child develops distress or dis-ease naturally, it is preparing him for future influences. . The immune systems of the elderly are also weak due to age, wear and tear. The same is true for people with allergies and asthma. The medical community states these individuals are in need of vaccination to prevent further illness. The opposite is true. These individuals are already suffering from autoimmune disorders. Injecting them with more viruses, bacteria and heavy metals is just plain senseless.

Symptom Suppression Results
|
|
|
With the continuation of suppressing symptoms (signals the body gives us when under distress), we are adding to our "unhealth." The famous Sigmund Freud talked about suppressing feelings, which later became complicated mental issues as a person become older. He taught his patients to talk things out. Remove the anger and pain. We need to do the same with our other organs. We need to remove the stresses. Stresses are viruses, bacteria, chemicals, pollutants and toxins. When we decline to do this, stresses accumulate in the body leading to bigger problems down the road.
When one is diagnosed as having a psychological disorder, what exactly does that mean? The brain is not a separate entity. We are a complex machine in which nerves, cells, tissues and blood run throughout. When one employee is down we all suffer with an extra workload. No system works alone (respiratory, digestive, neurological, circulatory, etc.)Neurological disorders such as schizophrenia, bipolar and autism are the result of hitting the last nerve.
It may take months or years before we see the effects of toxic overload and symptom suppressing. We believe it is a combination of these two that eventually lead to the break down of the body’s defense mechanisms---- a process that may begin in the womb. It is clinically proven that prescription drugs can effect the liver. Perhaps a fetus was subjected to medications, invitro. Today doctors prescribe antidepressants and vaccinate pregnant woman, while advising them not to eat too much tuna. HMM? Maybe the mother received painkillers, pitocin and/or an epidural, during her delivery. Continuing ear infections may have warranted large amounts of antibiotics for the child. Antibiotics can lead to gut dysbiosis, which will interfere with bile elimination and nutrient absorption.
There are numerous ways in which a baby or child will be subjected to unnatural substances. Substances, that will interfere or lessen the natural process of the human body.
In order for us to return to our optimal health we must first ‘clean house". We must remove the harmful elements and recreate an environment for healthy cells to rejuvenate. The human body is an amazing machine. Just like the process of repairing a broken bone, we must "set the stage" and let the body do what it does best…Heal itself !!!!
