Government Pays for Vaccine Damage

Government Pays for Vaccine Damage

While it’s not a well known fact, the government in several countries around the world has paid parents for damage caused to their children by vaccines.  Parents like to think of vaccines as a necessity for their child’s safety, but in truth, some vaccines can cause damage.  The vaccine damage differs from child to child; some damage is neurological, while it can also affect physical characteristics.  Most vaccine damage is caused by the preservatives used in the vaccine to keep it from spoiling.  One such preservative, thimerosal, has been linked to serious disorders like autism.  The easiest way to prevent vaccine damage is to limit the amount of vaccinations the child receives, and also to be wary of excess vaccinations.

Children who have toxins in their blood due to vaccinations can remove them with products like PCA-Rx or through chelation therapy.  It might not be possible to prevent damage all together, but being aware of the dangers of vaccines is just as important as recognizing how to prevent and reverse vaccine damage. 

Diligence and Childhood Vaccinations

Diligence and Childhood Vaccinations

It’s important to vaccinate your child against all the various harmful illnesses and diseases that can be fatal.  But it’s also important to keep in mind that excessive vaccinations can be harmful.  Studies have shown that some of the preservatives used in vaccinations can have serious side effects.  One preservative, thiomersal, which contains mercury, has been linked to several serious conditions including autism.  Vaccination should provide more benefit than do harm, but sometimes it can achieve the opposite.  It’s important for parents to be aware of the preservatives being used in their child’s vaccination, and also recognize that some vaccinations might not be necessary depending on location. 

Despite the dangers of vaccination preservatives, there are several methods in which it is possible to clear toxins from the body.  PCA-Rx, Candida Cleanse, and Probiotics can all serve to cleanse unnecessary toxins from the body and are safe for children. 

Potential Benefits of Chelation

Potential Benefits of Chelation

Chelation is a process through which metallic catalysts are removed from the bloodstream.  Chelation therapy is most often used to treat atherosclerosis and certain other degenerative diseases which affect the circulatory system.  In addition, chelation therapy has also been used to treat autism through removing dangerous metallic toxins, like mercury, from the body.  Chelation also provides several more simple benefits, including removing plaque from the artery walls, smoothening artery walls, and initiating the body’s natural healing processes. 

Patients of chelation therapy have not been able to walk prior to the therapy due to muscle pain, and then can walk following treatment.  This is because chelation improves blood flow to the artery muscles, and allows people to perform everyday activities that would have otherwise been difficult. 

Chelating Agents in Heavy Metal Detoxification

Chelating Agents in Heavy Metal Detoxification

Chelating agents were introduced into medicine in World War 1 when the first compound was used as an antidote to the arsenic-based poison gas, Lewisite.  Since then, chelating agents and chelation therapy have become much more common in practical medicine.  Chelation has been used to treat a number of serious conditions with intermittent successes.  Conditions like autism, atherosclerosis, and mercury poisoning are often treated with chelation therapy, and success has been reported in some of the treatments.

When it comes to treating serious conditions, you want to do all that you can to achieve the best results.  While chelation isn’t guaranteed to work, it is safe, effective, and relatively inexpensive, and if it does work the patient will obviously be much happier than they would have with invasive surgery. 

Dangers of Household Thermometers

Dangers of Household Thermometers

It’s less common for thermometers made in modern times to contain mercury, but in the past nearly all thermometers were mercury based.  Mercury is one of the most volatile substances known to man; even in small dosages exposure can be fatal.  There have been horrendous accidents in the past where a person or in some cases a child died because a thermometer was broken and the fumes were inhaled or the substance touched their skin.  Most medical clinics, medical practitioners, and even parents have switched to alternative thermometers to prevent mercury poisoning.

If you do happen to come in contact with mercury, be sure to contact a doctor.  Mercury poisoning symptoms include swelling, skin discoloration, skin peeling, and a number of more serious symptoms like memory impairment and kidney failure. 

Chelating Agents in Earth Science

chelationThe process by which heavy metal ions are extracted from minerals and rocks through natural processes is often called chelation.  In earth science, chelating agents, like peptides and sugars, work to remove heavy metals, and cause the movement of these metals in the soil.  In addition, accumulation of metals in plants and smaller organisms can be attributed to chelating agents.  The same idea of chelation that was pioneered by natural processes has also been used to detoxify metals from the human body. 

Utilizing different chelating agents, through chelation the human body can be rid of toxic metals such as lead and mercury.  Chelation treatment has also been used to treat autism, as one of the supposed causes of autism is mercury poisoning.

What is Chelation?

chelation

Chelation is a form of medicine which introduces chelating agents to the body.  These agents then attempt to bind themselves to harmful heavy metals in the body, and remove them through the use of the liver and kidneys.  It is suspected that heavy metals such as mercury trigger symptoms of autism.  Thus chelation therapy is commonly used to treat the effects of autism. 

Chelation therapy’s most prominent use is to treat lead poisoning, though it has also been used to treat heart disease with mixed results.

Government Puts Money into Chelation

chelation therapyGovernment researchers are pushing to have an official federal study on chelation therapy.  Chelation removes heavy metals from the body which may have been caused by vaccines.

The push for finding the positive effects of chelation is brought on by parents of autistic children who feel that the government isn’t doing enough.  This is also coming as several legislative sessions have ended with some states allowing insurance companies to deny coverage for autistic childre

chelation therapyChelation therapy is the administration of chelating agents to remove heavy metals from the body.

Based on the speculation that heavy metal poisoning may trigger the symptoms of autism, some parents have turned to alternative medicine practitioners who provide chelation therapy. As there are several cases that link the mercury in the vaccine preservative thiomersal causes autism or its symptoms, chelation therapy is a viable treatment for autism.

Autism News

PreemieA study released Wednesday in conjunction with World Autism Day suggests that premature babies are at greater risk of being diagnosed with autism.

The study looked at 91 babies with an average gestation time of 26 weeks. Researchers in Montreal and Boston performed standard development tests on the babies between the ages of 18 and 24 months.

Of the 91 babies tested, 25 per cent had a positive result on an autism screening test. Researchers say they don’t know what proportion of these high risk children will go on to develop autism and are currently performing more confirmatory tests. Results will be released in 6-9 months.

Babies were at higher risk of scoring positive on the autism screening test if they had been more ill at birth, if they were male, or had a lower birth weight or gestational age at birth and if the mother had a prenatal infection.

“The results suggest the more premature the infant and the greater the complications at birth, the greater the likelihood they will follow up with a positive score for autism,” the study’s lead author, Catherine Limperopoulos of McGill University, told CTV’s Avis Favaro.

“Even more troubling, among preemies who had bleeding in a part of the brain known as the cerebellum, 100% - all of them - developed signs of autism.”

The study, entitled “Positive Screening for Autism in Ex-Preterm Infants: Prevalence in Risk Factors,” was published Wednesday in the journal Pediatrics.
