Notes from Dr. G

Every year at this time, the medical community begin touting the benefits of the latest flu shot.  Yet, before you go and get inoculated, you might want to investigate some facts.

Countless studies show that there are many folks who react to flu shots and other vaccination in a negative way and that this reaction can actually weaken the immune system rather than strengthen and protect it.

All vaccines produce antibodies.  Actually,  they produce circulating immune complexes called CICs.  Your immune system ends up attacking these CICs.  When it does, it deflects its energy from it’s more important job -  protecting you from more harmful viruses and bacteria.  Like fighting a war on two fronts, your body is similarly splitting its resources in an attempt to defend you.  In  other words, your immune system is trying to protect you from the vaccine by creating an allergic reaction to it.  If another virus or bacteria comes along, there are fewer lymphocytes left to kill it.

In his book , The Case Against Immunization, Dr. Richard Moskowitz notes that immunizations can lead to certain types of chronic diseases.

“Far from providing a genuine immunity…,” say Moskowitz, “vaccines may act by actually interfering with or suppressing the immune response.”  Moskowitz indicates that the rise in auto immune diseases is an automatic result of injecting live virus and foreign antigens into children.  As a result, the body can no longer tell the difference between good and bad cells and starts attacking itself, producing such auto immune responses as rheumatoid arthritis, chronic fatigue immunity deficiency syndrome, and other degenerative diseases.  In fact, there is almost a one-to-one statistical correlation between the incidents of vaccinations and auto immune diseases in this country!

I have personally treated many people who have gotten severe cases of the flu after they have taken a flu shot.  In my many years as a Chiropractic physician, I have concluded that it is better to boost one’s cell-mediated immunity through  natural methods than to  rely totally on the anti bodies in any flu vaccine.

Of course, the decision to take or not to take a flu shot is an individual decision - an informed decision.  No matter your choice, if you experience flu like symptoms or contact the flu, please call me at the Center for Holistic Health (510) 652-2302 and I can do a kinesiological flu treatment protocol on you that , in most cases, will have you back on your feet within 48 hours.
