VaccinationDuring the course of any infection, our immune system, through the white blood cells, processes the information about the pathogen or intruder and "learns" how to deal with it more effectively in the future. This is called naturally built immunity and it is one of the best ways of staying healthy and free of disease during our lifetime. Vaccinations came about when it was thought that by giving a child a mild dose of either the live or inactive pathogen, in most cases a virus, the immune system would interpret this as a mild infection and would store the information until later when a real infection with that virus would not lead to a full blown reaction. Whereas there is no doubt that vaccinations work very well in theory, in practice they are fraught with problems. The natural route of exposure to viruses, bacteria, fungus and parasites which imparts maximum immunity is the mouth or nose eventually leading to the throat. The immune system is well represented in the throat by the presence of the tonsils and adenoids. Lining the wall of the small intestine is a vast collection of lymph tissue whose job it is to protect against all infections. It is for this very reason of protecting the route of entry or organisms into the body that we have the largest portion of our immune system, over 50%, housed in our digestive tract. As the majority of vaccinations (polio vaccines are different) are by injection through the skin, the very place where immunity is best learnt, is completely bypassed! Furthermore vaccines, by their very nature are solutions that need to be kept with a preservative and, historically, the preservative used in vaccinations has been thimerosal, a solution of mercury. Mercury is one of the most potent poisons known to Man with a wide ranging list of symptoms especially of the brain and nervous system since it is mainly stored in fat tissue and the brain is over 60% fat!
There are other preservatives used in vaccinations, all of which are also stored in fat and with similar potential problems.
