1 Exposing The Truth About Vaccines They Don t Want You To Know By Consumer Health Advocate Frank Mangano Frank Mangano Author & Researcher

2 In our society today it has become a modern and common practice to vaccinate all young children during their critical years. This was started to protect them from diseases and viruses of all kinds, however studies are beginning to shed light on the truth about vaccines and what they are actually doing to our children and our world as a whole. These vaccines are meant to prevent diseases such as the mumps, flu, measles, whooping cough and more but does no one recall that one hundred years ago or more people were able to survive these types of diseases with no vaccines? When looking back through our past there were fewer fatalities to diseases than there are now. People then were able to fight off the disease with their immune system. When a child or adult gets a disease naturally, the virus travels through the nose or the mouth, through the lungs and into the circulatory system, providing antibody and cellular protection. In direct contrast to this, when a vaccine of any kind is injected into the body, the disease will pass right by the natural defence system and settle in. This is incredibly damaging to the immune system and makes immunity a short-lived experience for most, the faster it breaks down. It is the ignorance of vaccines which are really hurting the entire human race. When people assume they are good for you and the government forces children of all ages to have certain vaccines throughout their younger years, no one questions it. For the people who are learning what vaccines really are, it becomes clear how harmful they can be. Vaccines are created from dead or live weakened disease microorganisms. In the dead vaccines the bacteria or disease organisms have been killed by heat, but there is no guarantee that all the organisms are dead. Even if only one survives, it can multiply very rapidly, causing the carrier of the vaccine to be incredibly sick.

3 On the other hand, vaccines created by live microorganisms are made from the pus of animals that had the disease and then were killed. With these types of vaccines the disease and bacteria antibodies must be weakened by passing the virus through the animal tissue several times to relieve the potency. For example, the measles virus is passed through chick embryos, the polio virus is passed through monkey kidneys and the rubella virus is passed through the dissected organs of an aborted human fetus. The weakened germs are then stabilized by adding drugs and toxic disinfectants. It can be hard to believe just how many toxic ingredients are included in the vaccines of today, and many of these ingredients have the power to kill a person, there is absolutely no safe dosage when it comes to some of the ingredients listed below. Formaldehyde: used in vaccines as a tissue fixative Mercury: used in vaccines as a preservative Antifreeze: used in the polio vaccine Aluminium Phenol Methanol Borax MSG Sulfate and phosphorous compounds Animal organ tissue and blood Aborted human foetal tissue Latex Animal viruses Human viruses

4 This is just a very small list of the different toxins you are putting into your body or the body of your child s when you are choosing to inject yourself with a vaccine of any kind. Each of these toxins has their own side effects. Aluminium is a suspected factor in Alzheimer's disease, dementia, convulsions or comas. Antifreeze affects behavioural disorders, kidney disorders, depression, etc. This is just a small example of what these toxins can do to you in the long run. Although there are some toxins that can be taken without risk, the toxins listed above have no minimal dosage that cannot cause harm. The unfortunate truth about vaccines and why they are pushed so heavily is a simple and sad explanation, money. As they have made many of the vaccines law for small children you have to legally have these vaccines completed before your child can enter the school system and therefore you are forced to spend hundreds or even thousands of dollars on vaccines, depending on your medical coverage. There is absolutely no long term thinking in regards to these vaccines, because if there were then people would be able to see that these vaccines are actually increasing the risk of disease and lowering the power of the natural immune system. The flu vaccine is the perfect example as to how some vaccines work some of the time and the rest of the time they can have no effect at all. The flu is a disease that has many different forms and is compiled of many different types of diseases all in one. The flu vaccine was created to be a one size fits all type of vaccine, which means many of the serious and main components of the flu can not even be protected by the flu vaccine. The flu is a fast changing virus and you may not get the protection you need because the flu virus has changed so much since the initial creation of the vaccine. You can see how vaccines may be effective in the beginning but their effectiveness loses its potency not long after creation.

5 With so many different problems and literally deadly ingredients in the vaccines which have been deemed as mandatory it can be easy to see how people are beginning to have different thoughts on vaccines and beginning to see the truth behind the haze of lies. It is unfortunate that our government and our country would rather stay behind the curtain of ignorance than see what is right in front of them. Vaccines can be directly linked to the cause of the spread of deadly viruses such as HIV as they first, do not work on everyone and second are further diminishing our natural defence system. There are some startling statistics and data that may be not only convincing when it comes to the truth about vaccinations but the possible future of your children when exposed to the supposedly meant to help keep your children safe. According to the US government s own Vaccines Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS) in 1998 there were 88 vaccines related infant deaths. Throughout the year of 1999 there were 73 vaccine related infant deaths, in the year 2000 there were 73 infant deaths in relation to vaccines. These results are incredibly startling but what is more alarming is that only 1% of vaccine related deaths are actually reported to the VAERS which means these numbers are far from accurate. You can estimate that in the United States each year a total of 3,900 7,800 infants are poisoned to death as a result of their mandatory vaccinations. When you learn about statistics like this can you honestly believe that the death of these innocent children can be justified because others have survived this obviously toxic and harmful vaccination process? The time has come to go back hundreds of years and rely on the natural and herbal remedies that kept the people of that time safe and protected from deadly diseases. The fatality rate of disease one hundred years ago was far lower than today, which is an obvious indicator that they were doing something right. Natural is always the better option. Check out some of the effective and simple natural alternatives that have been right in front of you all along.

6 Avoid partially hydrogenated fats in packaged snack foods as they promote inflammation and prevent healthy fatty acids from being incorporated into the cells. Avoid foods with added sugar. Use organic foods whenever possible and your child will not be eating pesticides, which can damage the liver. If your child tends to get frequent ear infections or colds give them a daily dose of Bovine Colostrum (powdered capsule). Breast feeding is the absolute best protection you can give your child. The longer your breast feed the more your child will benefit. It prevents infections and complications in childhood diseases. Find a homeopathic practitioner to help create your herbal structure for treating and preventing disease. Avoid antibiotics if you can. It is important to know that decongestants suppress the body s immune system and add more chemicals to the body causing recurrent infections. Vitamin A, Vitamin C and Echinacea treat colds, coughs and ear infections. This is a very small list of the many different natural alternatives that have been right in front of you all along. They are healthy, effective and most importantly 100% safe. It is always important to begin your natural journey with a homeopathic practitioner so you can be sure the supplements and herbs you are choosing are correct and used in collaboration with the proper supplements. By combining the wrong herbs you can be causing just as much danger as if you were choosing the vaccines of today. Consider all the facts stated in this report as it can be so difficult to distinguish the lies from the truth when the entire world is following the footsteps of vaccinations and asking no questions at all. Find the best natural alternatives for you and your family and be safe and healthy.
