What's really in vaccines? Proof of MSG, formaldehyde, aluminum and mercury


What's really in vaccines? Proof of MSG, formaldehyde, aluminum and mercury

(NaturalNews.com) Have you ever wondered what's really in vaccines? According to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control's vaccine additives page, all the following ingredients are routinely used as vaccine additives:

• Aluminum - A light metal that causes dementia and Alzheimer's disease. You should never inject yourself with aluminum.

• Antibiotics - Chemicals that promote superbugs, which are deadly antibiotic-resistant strains of bacteria that are killing tens of thousands of Americans every year.

• Formaldehyde - A "pickling" chemical used to preserve cadavers. It's highly toxic to the nervous system, causing blindness, brain damage and seizures. The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services openly admits that formaldehyde causes cancer. You can see this yourself on the National Toxicology Program website, featuring its 12th Report on Carcinogens.

There, the formaldehyde Fact Sheet completely neglects to mention formaldehyde in vaccines. This is the "dirty little secret" of government and the vaccine industry. It does state, however, that "...formaldehyde causes myeloid leukemia, and rare cancers including sinonasal and nasopharyngeal cancer."

• Monosodium Glutamate (MSG) - A neurotoxic chemical called an "excitotoxin." It causes brain neurons to be overexcited to the point of death. MSG is toxic even when consumed in foods, where it causes migraine headaches and endocrine system damage. You should NEVER inject MSG into your body. But that's what health workers do when they inject you with vaccines.

• Thimerosal - A methyl mercury compound that causes severe, permanent nervous system damage. Mercury is highly toxic to the brain. You should never touch, swallow or inject mercury at any dose. There is no safe dose of mercury! Doctors and vaccine pushers LIE to you and say there is no mercury in vaccines. Even the CDC readily admits vaccine still contain mercury (thimerosal).

In addition, National Toxicology Programs admits in its own documents that:

• Vaccinations "...may produce small but measurable increases in blood levels of mercury."

• "Thimerosal was found to cross the blood-brain and placenta barriers."

• The "...hazards of thimerosal include neurotoxicity and nephrotoxicity." (This means brain and kidney toxicity.)

• "...similar toxicological profiles between ethylmercury and methylmercury raise the possibility that neurotoxicity may also occur at low doses of thimerosal."

• "... there are no existing guidelines for safe exposure to ethylmercury, the metabolite of thimerosal."

• "...the assessment determined that the use of thimerosal as a preservative in vaccines might result in the intake of mercury during the first six months of life that exceeded recommended guidelines from the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)..."

• ..."In the U.S., thimerosal is still present as preservative in some vaccines given to young children, as well as certain biological products recommended during pregnancy. Thimerosal remains a preservative in some vaccines administered to adolescents and adults. In addition, thimerosal continues to be used internationally as a vaccine preservative."

The report then goes on to say that the FDA studies thimerosal and somehow found it to be perfectly safe. It also states that vaccine manufactures are "working" to remove thimerosal from vaccines, but in reality it's still being manufactured right into the vaccines.

By the way, this report also reveals that the FDA requires preservatives like thimerosal only in so-called "multi-dose" vaccines -- vials that contain more than one dose of the vaccine. Drug companies could, if they wanted to, produce "clean" single-dose vaccines without any mercury / thimerosal. But they choose not to because it's more profitable to product mercury-containing multi-dose vaccines. As the report admits, "Preservatives are not required for products formulated in singledose vials. Multidose vials are preferred by some physicians and health clinics because they are often less expensive per vaccine dose and require less storage space."

So the reason why your child is being injected with vaccine boils down to health care offices making more money and saving shelf space!

"Mercury in vaccines is a conspiracy theory!
I've been told by numerous "skeptics" and doctors that there's no such thing as mercury in vaccines, and that any such suggestion is nothing more than a "wild conspiracy theory." That just goes to show you how ignorant all the skeptics, doctors and health professionals really are: They have NO CLUE what's in the vaccines they're dishing out to people!

All they have to do is visit this CDC vaccine additives web page, which openly admits to these chemicals being used in vaccines right now. It's not a conspiracy theory, it turns out. It's the status quo of modern-day vaccine manufacturing!

And just in case the CDC removes that page, here's a screen shot, taken October 22, 2012, showing exactly what was on the CDC vaccine additives page:


Feel that headache after a vaccine? That's the feeling of chemicals eating your brain
Now, consider this: The most common side effect of a vaccine injection is a headache. The CDC admits that over 30 percent of those receiving vaccines experience headaches or migraines. Gee, think about it: What could possibly be in vaccines that would cause headaches, migraines and brain damage?

Ummm, how about the mercury, the formaldehyde, the aluminum and the MSG!

Even if you believe in the theory of vaccines as a helpful way to train the immune system to recognize pathogens, why would anyone -- especially a doctor -- think it's okay to inject human beings with mercury, MSG, formaldehyde and aluminum?

The argument of the vaccine pushers is that each vaccine only contains a tiny dose of these highly toxic substances, and therefore it's okay to be injected with them. But this argument makes a fatal error: U.S. children are now receiving over twenty vaccines by the time they're six years old! What's the cumulative effect of all these vaccines, plus the mercury from dental fillings and dietary sources? What's the effect of injected mercury on an immune-suppressed child living in a state of chronic nutritional deficiency?

Scientists don't know that answer because such studies have never been conducted. So they pretend that nothing bad will happen and keep pushing more and more vaccines on infants, children and even expectant mothers. They're playing Russian roulette with our children, in other words, where every injection could cause a seizure, coma, autism or death.

Why doesn't the vaccine industry offer "clean" vaccines free from all toxic additives?
If vaccines are supposed to be good for you, why do they contain so many additives that are BAD for you? You wouldn't want to eat mercury in your tuna fish. You wouldn't want MSG in your sandwich, and you certainly wouldn't want formaldehyde in your soda. So why would you allow yourself to be injected with these deadly substances?

And just as importantly, why wouldn't the vaccine industry offer CLEAN vaccines? Without any brain-damaging additives?

Think about it: When you buy health food, you want that health food to have NO mercury, NO MSG, NO aluminum and certainly no formaldehyde. No sane person would knowingly eat those neurotoxic poisons. And yet, astonishingly, those same people literally line up to be INJECTED with those exact same brain-damaging poisons, with the justification that, somehow, "This injection is good for me!"

Absurdly, the vaccine industry says these toxic ingredients are intentionally added to vaccines to make them work better! Yes, that's the reason: Mercury makes vaccines work better, they insist. Click here to see a video news report actually claiming mercury makes vaccines work better, granting children "improved behavior and mental performance."

No, I'm not making this up. The mainstream media literally claims that mercury is GOOD for babies. Vitamins might kill you, they say, but mercury is good for you!

But hold on a second: I thought the theory behind vaccines was that weakened viruses would give the immune system a rehearsal so that it would build up antibodies to the real thing. Where does mercury, MSG or formaldehyde fit anywhere in that theory? Does your body benefit in any way from exposure to formaldehyde? Of course not. The very idea is ludicrous.

So are there such things are clean vaccines? I challenge you to try to find one. They simply don't exist for the population at large. Nearly all vaccines for the masses are deliberately formulated with neurotoxic chemicals that have absolutely nothing to do with the science of vaccinations, but everything to do with autism, Alzheimer's disease, early-onset dementia, immune suppression, and the mass dumbing down of brain function.

Vaccines are designed with chemical additives to poison the population, not to protect the population
That's the real purpose of vaccines: Not to "protect children" with any sort of immunity, but to inject the masses with a toxic cocktail of chemicals that cause brain damage and infertility: Mercury, MSG, formaldehyde and aluminum. The whole point of this is to dumb the population down so that nobody has the presence of mind to wake up and start thinking for themselves.


 

Health alert: Why you DON'T want ripped abs if you hope to survive the coming economic collapse

Health alert: Why you DON'T want ripped abs if you hope to survive the coming economic collapse
(NaturalNews.com) You show me a guy with ripped abs, and I'll show you a guy very unlikely to survive the coming economic collapse. There are three scientific reasons for this:

#1) Having "ripped abs" is only achieved by shedding excess body fat and achieving a dangerously low body fat level (such as 5% for men).

#2) People with ripped abs (i.e. very low body fat) have virtually no excess calories to keep them alive if access to food is suddenly limited.

#3) People with ripped abs have no built-in insulation from the cold. A person with very low body fat is extremely vulnerable to hypothermia. This may be a life-or-death matter if an economic collapse arrives during the winter months and electricity or heating fuels are not available for extended periods of time.

Having very low body fat is dangerous to your survival
It's almost comedic that men are running around the gym these days, trying to build up their biceps and shed body fat. Neither of these is useful in a collapse scenario. They are purely a cosmetic reflection of today's cultural fashions. (For hundreds of years, for example, being plump was considered a lot more attractive than being lean.)

In a collapse scenario, you'll wish you had some extra body fat. Obviously you don't want to face a crisis as an obese person, but carrying around 15 - 20 percent body fat (for men) or 20 - 28 percent body fat (for women) is actually a smart survival strategy, especially if combined with regular physical fitness and resistance training.

A 6' tall man weighing 215 pounds and carrying some belly fat, for example is a lot more likely to survive hard times than a 6' tall man weighing 175 with ripped abs and virtually no body fat.

Scenarios where you'll wish you had body fat
• If food is suddenly in short supply and you have to survive with a prolonged calorie deficit.

• If you're forced to travel on foot for extended durations (such as days or weeks). You'll burn fat along the way. If you don't have sufficient fat, your body will start breaking down and burning your muscles.

• If you're forced to sleep outside, possibly in a tent, where you need thermal protection from the elements.

• If you're sleeping in a home or apartment, but the heat is cut off in the winter.

In each of these scenarios, some spare body fat actually adds to your survival potential.

Don't use this as an excuse to pig out, though
Of course, you probably don't want to carry around more than 25 - 30 pounds of extra body fat, even if you're preparing for hard times. Don't use this article as an excuse to pig out this holiday season. I can just see sometime stuffing their face with ice cream and declaring, "The Health Ranger said this was a good way to get prepared!"

That's not what I'm saying at all. In fact, if you do carry around some extra stored body fat, make sure it was built with the healthiest foods you could find. You want body fat derived from healthy foods and healthy oils, for example. Not "junk food fat."

You want to be healthy, fit and well-fed but not obese. For men, obese means 25% body fat or higher. For women, it's 32% or higher.

The bodybuilding "health" myth
As you consider all this, remember that people who have "ripped abs" are really sporting a temporary fiction. Body builders, for example, are in terrible overall health. They spend months over-feeding themselves, gorging on calories to build muscle, then they spend a month or two "cutting" calories through planned starvation so that they shed all their body fat by competition day.

A day or two before competition day, they then force themselves through a grueling dehydration regimen, to the point where they're about to pass out during the competition itself. The body you see during bodybuilding competitions is, technically, very close to death by dehydration, starvation and mineral (salt) deficiency. That is not a healthy body. We should not strive, in any way, to look like those bodies. Even bodybuilders don't look like that, day to day.

Immediately after bodybuilding competitions, the participants drink so much water and salt that they can gain as much as 30 pounds in 24 hours. They also begin to eat huge portions again, bringing themselves back from the brink of starvation. In just 72 hours after a competition, a typical bodybuilder looks nothing like their on-stage performance. That was a "performance," not a lifestyle.

If an economic collapse were to occur the day before a bodybuilding competition, those participants would quite literally find themselves on the verge of death and need to take immediate action to rehydrate and intake mass quantities of salt and calories just to get back into functional shape again.

Do you see how silly it is to wish to have "ripped muscles" when the global economy is on the brink? Or when a Fukushima-scale nuclear accident could happen at any time?

That's why I encourage you to take care of yourself and carry around a reasonable quantity of spare calories. Stay fit, eat well and exercise regularly, but don't try to drop so much body fat, salt and water that you put yourself at risk in an uncertain world.

And of course, in addition to storing a bit of extra energy around your waist or hips, also store some preparedness foods in your home. When today's world such an uncertain place, it only makes sense to keep you and your family ready for whatever might be coming our way.
 

Five Best Exercises to Lose Weight

(NaturalNews) Who doesn't want flat abs? People desperate to lose weight will willingly starve themselves, take expensive supplements or do the latest fad diet that promises to give them that flawless figure in 30 days. Thankfully, belly fat is metabolically active and easier to lose. However, if proper nutrition is not observed and the resort is made to low calorie diets, weight loss may not happen within the desired time frame. Hunger and calorie deprivation will eventually kick in and dieters confronted with that favorite food they have been avoiding will have the tendency to binge at the first opportunity. The likelihood of gaining more weight than they originally lost is not far-fetched.

According to Christine Rosenbloom, a nutrition professor at Georgia State University, eating a calorie-controlled diet and 60 minutes of daily moderate exercise activity will result to weight loss and can even help with the desired weight maintenance. In fact, according to Professor Michael Jensen of the Mayo Clinic, intense aerobic exercise will result to being leaner around the abdomen.

It is important to remember that keeping the body's metabolism up and running so that the body continuously burns calories prevents it from going into the fat-storing mode that causes unnecessary weight gain.

Why exercise is necessary
Most people involved in weight loss believe that it's all about the calories. If you burn calories more than you take in, you lose weight. If you take in more calories than you can burn, the body gains fat. While this piece of logic may make sense, it is only partly true. What burns calories nonstop is actually the lean muscle mass underneath body fat that allows more intake of calories without weight gain.

The body actually adapts to the changes it undergoes. Losing weight without exercising increases the risk of losing lean body mass, slowing the metabolism and putting the body into fat-storing mode. People who have lost body fat and muscle mass may notice that they don't have the muscle mass they once had. Worse yet, once they overeat even a little bit, they start filling up on body fat once again.

Building up muscle mass
An important thing to remember when undergoing a weight loss program is to understand what needs to be done. Realistic and achievable goals can help in building the confidence needed to make the necessary leap for the achievement of a desired weight.

Researchers at the Biomechanics Lab at San Diego State University took a look at some popular abdominal exercises and ranked them. Results of the study revealed that exercises that require constant abdominal stabilization and body rotation resulted in the most muscle activity in the abdomen.

Below are the top five belly exercises as ranked by the study:

1. The Bicycle Exercise - best for targeting the six pack muscles and the obliques. To do this exercise, get into a supine position with hands at the back of your head. Bring knees to the chest while lifting shoulders off the floor. Slowly bring your right elbow towards your left knee as you straighten your right leg. Switch sides and continue in a pedaling motion. Do 1 to 3 sets with 12 to 16 repetitions.

2. The Captain's Chair Leg Raise - This exercise requires a captain's chair, a rack with padded arms allowing for the legs to hang free that is commonly found in gyms or health clubs. To do this exercise, stand on the chair and grip hand holds. Press back against the pad then raise knees to the chest to contract the abs then lower them back down. Do 1 to 3 sets with 12 to 16 repetitions.

3. Exercise Ball Crunch - For this exercise, an exercise ball is necessary. In this routine, the abdomen does more exerting but will still need the entire body to stabilize it throughout the routine. To do this exercise, lie on the ball with your lower back fully supported. Place hands behind the head. To lift the torso off the ball, contract the abs to pull the bottom of the rib cage towards the hips. Keep ball stable as you curl up, then lower back down to stretch the abs. Do 1 to 3 sets with 12 to 16 repetitions.

4. Vertical Leg Crunch - Performing this exercise is similar to doing a leg crunch except that the legs are straight up, forcing the abs to work and adding intensity to the routine. To do this, lie on the floor with the legs straight up, knees crossed, and place the hands beneath the head for support. Contract abs lifting the shoulders off the floor and keep legs in a fixed position to crunch. Do 1 to 3 sets with 12 to 16 repetitions.

5. Long Arm Crunch - This is a variant of the traditional floor crunch where the arms are held straight behind you, adding a lever to the move and making for a challenging exercise. To do this, lie on the floor or a mat then extend arms straight behind, keeping them clasped and next to the ears. Slowly contract abs and lift shoulders off the floor carefully to keep the arms straight. Do 1 to 3 sets with 12 to 16 repetitions.

The best strategy to weight loss is to observe a healthy diet coupled with exercise of at least an hour a day. Although there is no sure fire way to deal with belly fat, there are a number of activities from which to choose and enjoy. As long as you're having fun, you can lose weight without realizing it. It is important to look for an exercise you enjoy. If the suggested exercises above do not suit your taste, taking a hike, swimming or biking are just as effective in burning fat and toning muscles.

What Do You Know about Phlebotomy


What Do You Know about Phlebotomy
Phlebotomy which means to cut a vein in Greek is the process of drawing blood. A longer definition will be the process of making an incision in veins and collecting blood samples for different purposes depending on the patient, the blood maybe drawn for testing, sample and even for blood transfusion.

A certified professional who performs phlebotomy is called a phlebotomist. They are trained to draw blood from people and in certain circumstances from animals for tests, transfusions, donations or research.

In the United States, phlebotomists are required to register or in some states be certified. The American Society of Phlebotomy Technicians is the main organization creating policies and providing certification exams to phlebotomists.

If you want to become a certified phlebotomist you may acquire training in the nearest community college or university near your area. Most community college and universities offer phlebotomist training programs. Training will usually take 3 weeks to 6 months depending on the program you take and the requirement of the state where you are taking the certification.

Subjects you will study when you enrol in a phlebotomy class includes human anatomy and physiology, vein location, arterial puncturing, puncture points, and administering comfortable punctures.

Here are the specific lists of subjects:

1. Legality on blood collection.

2. Cardiopulmonary resuscitation.

3. Patient interaction.

4. Blood collection techniques.

5. Clinical practices of Phlebotomy.

Before you can take a phlebotomist training here are the requirements:

1. 18 years old or older

2. You must have taken GED or finished high school.

3. Physical Fitness - this is a strong requirement. You must be free from diseases because you will come in close contact with patients when you become a licensed phlebotomist. This requires that you have a strong physical constitution to prevent getting and transmitting disease.

4. Health Insurance - this is another requirement from those who are taking phlebotomy. The health insurance should cover both injuries as well as accidents. You'll never be sure that you won't encounter an accident or injury while taking the course so this is also required for certification.

5. Mental Fitness - this is also a requirement. Aside from being physically fit, you must also be mentally fit to take on this course. Doctors will evaluate you and see whether you fit the profile of this course.

When applying to work as a phlebotomist, here are the requirements:

1. Finished phlebotomist training from an accredited training institution

2. You must have undergone a 40 hours classroom instruction in Phlebotomy.

3. Must have experienced 120 hours of actual training in Phlebotomy.

4. 100 hours of successful blood drawing.

5. Passed a criminal background check.

Phlebotomy is a rewarding career but training is also required since this is an allied health care career. Still it's one good career choice. You surely can have a stable career even in bad economic conditions and it's also personally rewarding to know that you are directly helping in taking of people's health.
