Aluminum

Ode to Aluminum. The following is a follow up on chemicals in Vaccines. The information is taken from the Environmental Defense Fund. (they have scorecards for most chemicals)
Here is the gist of it:
Suspected - cardiovascular or blood toxicant, neurotoxicant, respiratory toxicant. Implicated as a cause of brain damage; suspected factor in Alzheimer's Disease, dementia, convulsions and comas. More hazardous than most chemicals in 2 out of 6 ranking systems. On at least 2 federal regulatory lists. (This element is not toxic when only in trace amounts, indeed at such levels is even beneficial to the body, however a trace amount is extremely minute - the level in vaccines is enormously higher, at around 0.5%)

Formaldehyde

A post all on its own, I guess I will post one of all of the major Vaccine ingredients. (courtesy of the Vaccine Information Service)

Formaldehyde:

(Used in vaccines as a tissue fixative)

Aust. National Research Council: Fewer than 20% but perhaps more than 10% of the general population may be susceptible to formaldehyde and may react acutely at any exposure level. More hazardous than most chemicals in 5 out of 12 ranking systems, on at least 8 federal regulatory lists, ranked as one of the most hazardous compounds (worst 10%) to ecosystems and human health (Environmental Defense Fund).

It is not safe at ANY level.

National Academy of Science:
There is no population threshold for irritation effects.

National Research Council:
Fewer than 20% but perhaps more than 10% of the general population may be susceptible to formaldehyde and may react acutely at any exposure level.

Formaldehyde is oxidised to formic acid which leads to acidosis and nerve damage. Acidosis can be described as a condition in which the acidity of the body tissues and fluids is abnormally high. The liver and the kidneys may also be damaged.

Other effects:

Eye; nasal; throat and pulmonary irritation; acute sense of smell; alters tissue proteins; anaemia; antibodies formation; apathy; blindness; blood in urine; blurred vision; body aches; bronchial spasms; bronchitis; burns nasal and throat; cardiac impairment; palpitations and arrhythmias; central nervous system depression; changes in higher cognitive functions; chemical sensitivity; chest pains and tightness; chronic vaginitis; colds; coma; conjunctivitis; constipation; convulsions; corneal erosion; cough; death; destruction of red blood cells; depression; dermatitis; diarrhoea; difficulty concentrating; disorientation; dizziness; ear aches; eczema; emotional upsets; ethmoid polyps; fatigue; fecula bleeding; foetal asphyxiation (and they don’t know what could cause SIDS?); flu-like or cold like illness; frequent urination with pain; gastritis; gastrointestinal inflammation; headaches; haemolytic anaemia; haemolytic haematuria; hoarseness; hyperactive airway disease; hyperactivity; hypomenstrual syndrome; immune system sensitiser; impaired (short) attention span; impaired capacity to attain attention; inability or difficulty swallowing; inability to recall words and names; inconsistent IQ profiles; inflammatory diseases of the reproductive organs; intestinal pain; intrinsic asthma; irritability; jaundice; joint pain; aches and swelling; kidney pain; laryngeal spasm; loss of memory; loss of sense of smell; loss of taste; malaise; menstrual and testicular pain; menstrual irregularities; metallic taste; muscle spasms and cramps; nasal congestions; crusting and mucosae inflammation; nausea; nosebleeds; numbness and tingling of the forearms and finger tips; pale, clammy skin; partial laryngeal paralysis; pneumonia; post nasal drip; pulmonary oedema; reduced body temperature; retarded speech pattern; ringing or tingling in the ear; schizophrenic-type symptoms; sensitivity to sound; shock; short term memory loss; shortness of breath; skin lesions; sneezing; sore throat; spacey feeling; speaking difficulty; sterility; swollen glands; tearing; thirst; tracheitis; tracheobronchitis; vertigo; vomiting blood; vomiting; wheezing.

Vaccines

Upon request, I am going to post some vaccine information.

While there are a million reasons to vaccinate or not vaccinate your child, this might throw a curve ball at you. I have recently become aware that many aren't aware that some vaccines are derived from Aborted Human Fetal Tissue. While this might sound shocking, it has been going on for quite some time. The following website contains information about the vaccines that contain aborted human fetal tissue.
What is in that well baby check up Vaccine? The following is the actual page from the CDC listed by vaccination
What do those seemly weird combinations of chemicals do to your system in addition to providing supposed "immunity?"
That is an excellent question. The CDC will inform you that vaccines are "safe" or a "safe alternative" to the actual disease. YOU ultimately, as the parent, get to make that decision. How do you get to make that decision. You research! Start by knowing what the chemicals in those vaccines do to your body once they are let loose. Your body isn't a controlled environment, there are endless reactions that can take place when chemicals are introduced. Some have no reaction immediately, while others will pose a serious sometimes life threatening reaction. The CDC and the FDA really have no way of knowing. I have to give them credit, that no one could have the answer. There is no 100% fail proof way of testing safety...your body is more complicated that a pietry dish.

How do you find information about the chemicals? Well, you could start by googling the effects of Formaldehyde on the system (important to note that most studies done of the safety of formaldehyde are topical and inhalants...not injections. It is considered a human carcinogen when inhaled, or rubbed onto skin. It is also considered to be deadly to a human when injected through an IV at amount of only 1-2 ml. The EWG has more about Formaldehyde as well.) ... and then go on from there another notable one would be Aluminum...those are the two highest occurring ingredients...
Then you would want to be aware of all of the names of MSG as you scroll the list. It can hide as hydrolyzed ____ proteins, yeast extracts, etc.

That should keep you all busy for awhile, when you start asking questions again, I will post another comment.:)
