The FDA admits that the
12,000 reports it receives annually on pharmacologic side
effects from vaccines represent only a fraction of what actually occurs.
Congressman is calling for criminal penalties for any government agency
that knew about the dangers of thimerosal in vaccines and did nothing to
protect American children. Congressman Dan Burton (R-Indiana)
during Congressional Hearing: "You mean to tell me that since 1929, we've
been using Thimerosal, and the only test that you know of is from
1929, and every one of those people had mennigitis, and they all died?"
For nearly an hour, Burton repeatedly asked FDA and CDC officials what
they knew and when they knew it. (Thimerosal contains a related mercury
compound called ethyl mercury. Mercury is a toxic metal that can cause
immune, sensory, neurological, motor, and behavioral dysfunctions.)

David
M. Markowitz, M.D. - "Did you know that close to $10
billion was spent on antibiotics in the U.S. last year? Did you know that
many bacteria have become increasingly resistant to these drugs and that
many drugs are outdated as soon as they are released for use? Have you
seen the many articles in Time and Newsweek (and many medical journals)
about the variety of plagues caused by infectious agents throughout the
world? What can we do to protect ourselves in a safe and natural way against
this ever-increasing threat? Have you had a child or patient who has required
multiple drugs to deal with one or several ear infections? This is how
this threat touches our daily lives."
In a clinical study, pediatrician, David M. Markowitz, M.D. reports
an 84% reduction in antibiotic use when children
used Transfer Factor
"Antibiotics and ear tubes treat symptoms of a problem. They do not
strengthen the organism so that it can fight the infection itself, nor
do they make the organism less resistant to future infection."
James
Howenstine, MD. - "Excessive antibiotics in children almost certainly
stops normal maturation of a healthy immune system. Lack of healthy bacteria
in the intestines caused by antibiotics creates an environment in which
pieces of partially digested proteins are able to penetrate the barrier
of the intestinal lining. When these abnormal proteins enter the blood
the body properly reacts to them as foreign substances. The foreign proteins
cause an antigen antibody reaction producing symptoms and setting the stage
for a possible auto-immune illness to develop. Food allergies can also
appear along with impaired absorption of nutrients which may lead to poor
health." more
"According to a Harvard study, Americans now pay more visits to alternative
practitioners in a year than they do to primary care physicians.... They're
spending $250 million a year on homeopathic remedies, and close to $4 billion
on nutritional supplements.... But is this stuff safe for kids?" Yes, claim
physicians Ditchek and Greenfield, practitioners of "integrative pediatrics"

After 40 years of pushing antibiotics for any ailment, physicians are
now confronting bacteria that have built defenses against those same drugs.
Some infectious bacteria that were once treatable are stronger and often
deadly. The reappearance of highly infectious bacteria is caused in part
by the overuse and misuse of antibiotics, but the resilience of bacteria
also stems from the ingenious biochemistry of the microorganisms themselves.

Think twice
before giving Steroids (cortisone, prednisone) to your children "Doctors tell you that steroids (cortisone/prednisone/prednisolone)
only cause side effects after many years. But new research shows that permanent
damage is immediate and devastating. Studies show that steroids cause permanent,
debilitating effects after a single dosage. 'Steroids are probably the
most sleazy of modern day medications,' says John Mills, former professor
of medicine at the University of California, San Francisco and chief of
infectious diseases at San Francisco General Hospital. "read

Doris Rapp - Children's Allergies to Food & Environment
In her breakthrough book, "Is
This Your Child's World?” - Dr. Rapp identifies the
major symptoms of potentially unrecognized allergies in children and adults,
suggesting possible sensitivities to dust, mold, pollen, foods or chemicals.
Allergies are much more than high fever, asthma and itchy skin. It is possible
to identify allergies by simply looking at someone. At times
it is surprisingly easy to find and eliminate the cause. The typical
clues of allergies and environmental illness can include any combination
of the following: Rubbing Nose Upwards; Eye Wrinkles; Dark Eye Circles
Sudden Aggression; Scarlet Earlobes A Spacey Look; Extreme Activity
Changes Wiggly Legs; Red Cheeks A Mottled Tongue.

Dr. Doris Rapp MD
- "There are hundreds of thousands of parents who have seen their children
become wild and uncontrollable from a highly colored beverage or cereal."
For
more than twenty-five years, Dr. Doris Rapp, MD, has been treating children
whose lives have been hampered — sometimes critically — by allergies and
chemical sensitivities. Everyone knows about the role of allergies in problems
such as asthma and hay fever, but very few people
are aware of the staggering variety and extent of the illnesses triggered
by allergic responses and sensitivities to substances of various kinds,
natural and (increasingly) unnatural. Dr. Rapp knows, and has probably
done more than any other person to make the general public more able to
understand and cope with allergies of all kinds. She has stepped back for
now from her incredibly demanding private practice, but is as active as
ever in trying to spread understanding of and effective responses to allergies.

TeenScreen,
A Front Group for the Psycho-Pharmaceutical Industrial Complex is a
very controversial so-called "diagnostic psychiatric service" aka suicide
survey; done on children who are then referred to psychiatric treatment.
The evidence suggests
that the objective of the psychiatrists who designed TeenScreen is to place
children so selected on psychotropic drugs. "It's just a way to put more
people on prescription drugs," said Marcia Angell, a medical ethics lecturer
at Harvard Medical School and author of "The Truth About Drug Companies."
She said such programs will boost the sale of antidepressants even after
the FDA in September ordered a "black box" label warning that the pills
might spur suicidal thoughts or actions in minors. (The New York Post,

A fever is a helpful and necessary part of the process of healing in
a childhood illness, in any illness for that matter. During a fever the
healing reactions of the
body are speeded up; the heart beats faster, carrying the blood more quickly
to all the organs; respiration is quicker, increasing oxygen intake: and
perspiration increases, helping the body to cool down naturally. A high
temperature generally indicates that the body's defense mechanism is fighting
an infection and temperature variations indicate how it is coping. Attempts
to suppress or control a fever artificially with Tylenol, or even with
homeopathic remedies, are likely to confuse the body’s natural efforts
to heal itself.
Very high fevers - those above 106°F (41°C) - can harm the heart
and brain. Some authorities, however, say that fever is unlikely to cause
brain damage in a previously healthy child. During most infections, the
brain keeps body temperature at or below 104°F (40°C). So in most
- not all - cases, you don't need to be afraid that your child's temperature
is going to continue to rise above that point. more
It may help parents to remember that fever is only one part of the picture
of an illness. In fact, for children under eight years of age, and especially
for infants, the severity of a fever is an unreliable indicator of the
severity of the child's illness. For example, infants and toddlers can
be very sick with a low or even subnormal temperature. Conversely, children
three to eight years old can be running about quite cheerfully with a fairly
impressive fever.
Fever increases the amount of interferon (a natural antiviral and anticancer
substance) in the blood. A mild fever also increases the white blood cells
that kill cells infected with viruses, fungi, and cancer, and improves
the ability of certain white blood cells to destroy bacteria and infected
cells. Fever also impairs the replication of many bacteria and viruses.
Bottom line: A moderate fever is a friend, but not one you want to spend
a lot of time with. So it makes sense to avoid suppressing moderate fevers
with drugs, while continuing to monitor your child for dramatic increases
in temperature and worsening of any other of his symptoms. more
Fever Conventional doctors have been taught to treat every symptom that comes
to their attention. For instance, medication is often prescribed to reduce
childhood fever. Yet fever is the body's mechanism for destroying viruses
and bacteria. "If we do no more than take the edge off the fever to make
the child comfortable," says Dr. Smith, "we may be prolonging the illness."
According to Dr. Moskowitz, producing a fever is one of the signs of
a healthy child. The remedies Dr.Moskowitz recommends do not take away
fever, but rather help the immnue system to finish it's job of healing.
These remedies may include Aconite, Belladonna, Ferrum Phosphate, Gelsemium,
Pulsatilla and Bryonia.
Dr.
Sodhi also considers a fever below 102 F to be beneficial in a child, and
he does not like to give children medication such as aspirin or tylenol
for it. He does recommend a light, nutritious diet, and cold sponging or
homeopathic remedies such as Belladona, Aconite and Sulfur.
According to Dr. Ni, traditional Chinese medicine treats a fever by
inducing sweating and treating the accompanying infection. A hot bath can
be used to induce a fever.
David Hoffman believes that a fever may be beneficial in a young child,
and that a low-grade fever does not need to be reduced. The child should
be given a lot of support and comfort along with plenty of fluids. Herbal
teas such as peppermint, elder flower and even yarrow will help the body
cope with the fever, but will not surpress it the way aspirin does. COLD
WET SOCK TREATMENT
Because your child's immune system is in the process of developing,
it is not unusual for a child to seem to catch a cold week after week.
As your child grows, her immune defenses evolve from an uncoordinated series
of safeguards to an intricate set of responses designed to defend the body
against foreign substances. In the meantime, boosting your child's immune
system with diet and herbs can lessen the frequency of illness.
This comprehensive, user-friendly volume by one of the most highly trained
medical herbalists in America has all the information parents need to safeguard
and improve the health of their babies and children utilizing proper diet,
supplementation and herbs. Particular emphasis is placed on strengthening
the young immune system, with chapters on managing allergies and avoiding
the damaging overuse of antibiotics. The heart of the book features an
A-to-Z compilation of more than 50 common childhood complaints from colic
and cradle cap to warts and whooping cough, with remedies for easing discomfort
and healing from the inside out.
In memory of our son,
Alexander Horwin On August 10, 1998 at age two, our son Alexander Horwin
was diagnosed with the most common pediatric brain tumor, medulloblastoma.
After Alexander endured two brain surgeries, my husband and I located the
best non-toxic therapy that had proven successful in treating brain cancer.
However, on September 21, 1998, the FDA denied Alexander access to this
potentially life-saving treatment. The oncologists told us that without
their "state-of-the-art" chemotherapy, the cancer would soon return. We
knew nothing of the history, efficacy and actual danger of chemotherapy
but instinctively knew it was a poor choice for therapy. Alexander
completed his third month of chemotherapy in December 1998 and died on
January 31, 1999. He was just two and a half years old.
The "state-of-the-art" chemo protocol that the oncologists had administered
to our son had proven its ineffectiveness in pediatric brain tumors many
years before. In fact, in 1994, the exact same chemo drugs Alexander received
in 1998 had been administered to children the same age with the same brain
tumor (medulloblastoma) as Alexander. This experiment proved so unsuccessful
that tumors spread within five months and the oncologists terminated the
protocol. It was incredible to us to discover that chemotherapy that had
already proven so ineffective that it required termination was being presented
to parents as "state of the art" years later.
We were never informed about the failure of this therapy. We
also discovered that we weren't the only parents being purposefully misinformed.
Today, parents are still being misled and children with brain cancer are
still getting these same toxic drugs that have proven their ineffectiveness
in the past. But even if you are informed that orthodox therapy does not
work you still may not have a choice. When we hesitated to bring Alexander
in for chemo the oncologists were already gearing up to take him from us
by court order. Learn more: read

"I started as a believer in chemotherapy. As a science writer at
Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center in New York, I wrote articles praising
the latest advances in chemotherapy. Because chemotherapy drugs were general
cellular poisons, they could be terribly toxic. They were also very expensive
for patients and for society as a whole. When I learned about the links
between the pharmaceutical industry and the cancer establishment (later
detailed in my book, The Cance r Industry) I understood the commercial
reason that such an inadequate modality was so heavily promoted."Ralph

would be an epidemic of good health. Lots of drugs MUST be sold. In order
to achieve this, anything goes: lies, fraud, and kickbacks. Doctors are
the principal salespeople of the drug companies. They are rewarded with
research grants, gifts, and lavish perks. The principal buyers are the
public - from infants to the elderly - who MUST be thoroughly medicated
and vaccinated...at any cost! Why do the authorities forbid alternative
medicine? Because they are serving the industry, and the industry cannot
make money with herbs, vitamins, and homeopathy. They cannot patent natural
remedies. That is why they push synthetics. They control medicine, and
that is why they are able to tell medical schools what they can and cannot
teach."

Why
Children and Teens Should Stay Away From Cell Phones While years ago scientists were dismissive of any risks associated
with cell phone use, the accumulated amounts of studies showing health
risks for long-term users now paint an entirely different picture. In addition
to the Toronto Department of Health advisory, the U.K., Belgium, Germany,
France and Russia have already introduced precautionary policies regarding
cell phone usage due to potential health risks. For example, one Swedish
review of 11 studies found that using your cell phone for 10 years or longer
will double your risk of getting a tumor on a nerve connecting your ear
to your brain (acoustic neuroma). And because children have thinner skulls
than adults, and their nervous systems are still developing, children are
particularly vulnerable to this type of tumor and should not use cell phones
at all. more
Contrary to popular belief that soy is a health food, evidence reveals
that soy consumption has been linked to numerous disorders, including infertility,
increased cancer and infantile leukemia, Type1 diabetes,
and precocious puberty in children have
been fed soy formula. (early maturation, such as breast development and
menstruation as early as 6 years of age). Scientists have known for years
that the isoflavones in soy products can depress thyroid function and cause
goiters in otherwise healthy children and adults. A combined research team
of Cornell University Medical College and Long Island Community Hospital
medical experts have found that children who develop Type1 diabetes are
twice as likely to have been fed soy formulas as those fed all other foods
This confirms concerns based on animal studies raised in the 1980's and
1990s by Health Canada researcher
Dr Fraser Scott and led to the American Academy of Pediatrics issuing
their warning to pediatricians against any use of soy based formulas..
"Considering all of soy's health benefits, it is tempting for new and
expectant mothers to see soy-based infant formula as a "miracle food" and
to stock their pantries sky-high with the stuff. Well, hold on there mama.
That most vulnerable member of the population, an infant unable to breastfeed,
stands at great risk of developing a serious thyroid disorder due to a
diet based entirely on soy formula. That disorder is hypothyroidism, or
an under-active thyroid and it is a common cause of fatigue, depression,
obesity, constipation, extreme sensitivity to cold and a number of other
symptoms, most so common that the disorder can go undiagnosed for years."
Katie
Mehrer Dr. Mercola - "Soy formula is one of the worst foods that you
could feed your child. Not only does it have profoundly adverse hormonal
effects as discussed above, but it also has over 1000% more aluminum than
conventional milk based formulas. It is becoming increasingly common for
young children, even 5- and 6-year-olds, to go through precocious
puberty (aka early sexual development). The introduction of this report
even states that studies have found girls as young as 2 years old entering
puberty! This is clearly a multi-faceted problem, but I believe one of
its main causes stems from your environmental exposure to a whole slew
of endocrine-disrupting chemicals. Even the conservative US government
has recognized that soy formula is a potent endocrine
disruptor. There is absolutely no reason to ever give your child soy
formula or soy milk. It is one of the worst foods you could possibly give
your child and the long-term health complications can be quite significant.
Prostate and breast cancer, early puberty, endometriosis and infertility,
irregular and painful menstrual periods are only a few of the things your
children will have increased risk for if they are given soy formula or
soy milk. If you have already given your child these foods the best way
to reverse the damage is to have them rigidly follow
the eating plan. The nutrition from whole organic foods is the most
potent corrective force for these disruptions in hormones. If you still
aren't convinced of the dangers of soy you might want to review the protest
letter two FDA experts wrote earlier this year which points to studies
that show a link between soy and health problems in certain animals." more
The
kidneys fail first. Then the central nervous system begins to misfire.
Paralysis spreads, making breathing difficult, then often impossible without
assistance. In the end, most victims die. Many of them are children, poisoned
at the hands of their unsuspecting parents. The syrupy poison, diethylene
glycol, is an indispensable part of the modern world, an industrial solvent
and prime ingredient in some antifreeze. It is also a killer. And the deaths,
if not intentional, are often no accident. Over the years, the poison has
been loaded into all varieties of medicine — cough syrup, fever medication,
injectable drugs — a result of counterfeiters who profit by substituting
the sweet-tasting solvent for a safe, more expensive syrup, usually glycerin,
commonly used in drugs, food, toothpaste and other products. Toxic syrup
has figured in at least eight mass poisonings around the world in the past
two decades. Researchers estimate that thousands have died. In many cases,
the precise origin of the poison has never been determined. read

A new study published in the American Journal of Psychiatry shows that
children who experience malnutrition exhibit strikingly increased behavioral
disorders and aggressive behavior as they grow older. Children who suffered
certain nutritional deficiencies demonstrated a shocking 41% increase in
aggression at age eight. At age 17, they demonstrated a 51% increase in
violent and antisocial behaviors. And the only difference is their diet.
There
are many serious consequences of generation after generation having diets
deficient in an element essential for normal development of the nervous
system. In 1996, Laura J. Stevens, of the Department of Foods and Nutrition,
Purdue University, and co-investigators published an extremely important
paper in Physiology and Behavior. The researchers found that boys with
lower levels of omega-3 fatty acids in their blood showed more problems
with behavior, learning, and health than those with higher levels of total
omega-3 fatty acids. more
Childhood obesity, diabetes, and related illnesses are becoming major
health problems in America. Nutrition journalist Critser presents a critical
analysis of the many social and economic factors that make Americans, contrary
to the book's subtitle, the second-fattest people in the world (the South
Sea Islanders are fatter). He blames parents' reluctance to monitor their
children's eating habits; the marketing tactics of fast-food companies,
which influence us to overeat; the preponderance of fad diets; the phasing
out of physical education programs in schools; and the sale of fast foods
at schools to save money on dining facilities. Lower-income families have
higher rates of obesity regardless of race, ethnicity, and gender, which
the author attributes to lack of information about diet and exercise and
the wide diversity of cultural beliefs about weight, body size, and self-esteem. Critser
urges Americans to tackle obesity head on, concluding with descriptions
of initiatives that worked when communities launched a cooperative effort
to change their eating habits and avoid the path to lifelong obesity. An
important work that belongs in all nutrition and public health collections.

WASHINGTON, July 14, 2005 (Reuters) - Unborn U.S. babies are soaking
in a stew of chemicals, including mercury, gasoline byproducts and pesticides,
according to a report to be released on Thursday. The report by the Environmental
Working Group is based on tests of 10 samples of umbilical cord blood taken
by the American Red Cross. They found an average of 287 contaminants in
the blood, including mercury, fire retardants, pesticides and the Teflon
chemical PFOA.
Studies
show that pesticides can harm children’s health. Yet across the country,
kids are being exposed to high levels of dangerous chemicals at school.
Nothing is more important to us than to see our children healthy and
happy. They are the most important people in our lives. We
want to give our kids only the best things that will help them grow healthy
and strong. Especially since we live in a world that is now faced
with more and more health challenges everyday. Children are more
prone to colds, flus, ear infections, stresses, and other serious diseases
than adults, as their immune systems are not yet fully developed. Transfer
Factor Chewable with Multi-vitamins and Minerals and glyconutrients
is the most advanced health supplements ever developed for children to
boost and protect their immune system.
From
the time we start preparing a room for a new baby, we are making choices
about the child's environment. Many people get ready for a new child by
painting, papering, and carpeting a baby's room with conventional products.
They don’t realize that by doing so they may be creating an environment
high in toxic chemicals. Most of us take it for granted that babies should
be soothed with petroleum jelly and mineral oil, washed and shampooed with
chemical-based cleansers, fed from plastic bottles, swaddled in disposable
diapers, surrounded by scented products and put to sleep in pajamas treated
with fire-retardant chemicals. But although parents act out of love, they
are often unaware that the choices they make may be harmful to their child.
There are baby care products by the hundred. How can a parent identify
healthy alternatives? more

there is no warning as to the cancer risks from any of these ingredients.
It is UNTHINKABLE that any woman would knowingly inflict such exposures
on their loved ones and children... let alone on themselves... if products
used were labelled with explicit warnings of cancer risks toxic chemicals

Poor
mood, depression, and low energy have become epidemic in America. There
are literally tens of millions of American men, women and children that
suffer from some level of emotional disturbance. Although day-to-day stress

the medical literature indicating that proper nutrition is critical to
maintaining emotional health. Stress, anxiety, tension and depression
are intimately connected with most illness.
FDA
Issues Public Health Advisory on Cautions for Use of Antidepressants in
Adults and Children The Food and Drug Administration today
issued a Public Health Advisory that provides further cautions to physicians,
their patients, and families and caregivers of patients about the need
to closely monitor both adults and children with depression. The drugs
under review include bupropion, citalopram, fluoxetine, fluvoxamine, mirtazapine,
nefazodone, paroxetine, sertraline, escitalopram and venlafaxine. It should
be noted that the only drug that has received approval for use in children
with major depressive disorder is fluoxetine (Prozac).

According to the first comprehensive scientific review to include all
available studies, including negative data that have long been withheld
from public scrutiny by the pharmaceutical industry, four popular antidepressants
being used to treat thousands of depressed American children are unsafe,
ineffective or both. Those antidepressants are: Paxil, Zoloft, Effexor,
Celexa. This is damning evidence of the drug companies' patent disregard
for the safety of humans and focus on profits. GlaxoSmithKline was found
to be concealing evidence that shows that these drugs do not benefit children
in any way and only increase their risk of killing themselves. This was
confirmed in an article in the Canadian
Medical Journal. Drug companies do the research and learn that
the drugs don't work, yet are willing to sell and market them to children
even when it is clear that they are causing many children

Deficiencies, Antidepressant Drugs, Lead to Aggression and Violence in
Children A new study published in the American Journal of Psychiatry shows that
children who experience malnutrition exhibit strikingly increased
behavioral
disorders and aggressive behavior as they grow older. Children who
suffered certain nutritional deficiencies demonstrated a shocking 41% increase
in aggression at age eight. At age 17, they demonstrated a 51% increase
in violent and antisocial behaviors. And the only difference is their diet.

Lendon Smith, M.D. - "Most of the children I treated with diet
and supplements no longer needed the Ritalin they had been taking. Their
problem was not a Ritalin deficiency.
They had mineral and vitamin deficiencies. Their behavior good mornings
and terrible afternoons; either sleepy or restless and inattentive were
easily explained by their diet. Along with a better diet, they needed minerals
to act as co-
enzymes for basic metabolism. As I expanded my research with reading
and using nutrition as treatment for patients, I noted that the nutritional
approach was valid for other conditions not just the hyperactive child."

Direct link between the violent
shootings and the increased and indiscriminate use of popular antidepressant
drugs. Dr. Whitaker M.D points out that many of the gun-related
massacres that have made the headlines over the past decade have a common
thread: they were perpetrated by people taking Prozac, Zoloft,
Luvox,Paxil,
or a related drug. A documented side effect of these drugs -- known clinically
as selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) -- is akathisia, or
physical and mental agitation. Dr. Whitaker says "akathisia is to violence
what a match is to gasoline. And this condition has been reported in a
significant number of Prozac users." Moreover, the Food and Drug Administration
has received over 40,000 reports detailing adverse effects related to Prozac.The

of a four percent rate for mania in adolescents. Mania, for certain individuals
could be a component in grandiose plans to destroy large numbers of other
people. Mania can go over the hill to psychosis." more

Discovering
and Treating Unrecognized Allergies in Children and Adults Dr. Doris Rapp offers a simple yet effective approach to handling "problem"
children. "Is
This Your Child?" shows parents how to identify the common foods, chemicals,
or common allergic substances that could be the culprits that cause some
children or adults to feel unwell or act inappropriately. If your child
is always sick, hyperactive, a slow learner, or cranky, the first question
you should ask is not "What drug should be prescribed?" or "What have I
done wrong as a parent?" Instead, find out the cause. Dr. Rapp gives sensible
suggestions about how these reactions to foods and environmental factors
can be recognized, prevented, and treated. With this information, many
affected children should feel, act, behave, and learn better. If you can
detect unsuspected environmental illness in your child--or yourself--you
can change your lives so you're more content, happy, and free of illness.
"This book was an eye opener for us. Our daughter had many ADHD type
symptoms; angry outbursts, emotional meltdowns, and was fidgety, restless,
and unable to stay focused. After following the book's recommended rotational
diet, we figured out what foods she reacted to. Avoiding those foods (especially
corn) produced dramatic positive results. She is now an alert, attentive,
angel of a child. This book is a must for any parent with a problematic
child." an amazon.com reviewer: Dale Sherman from Syracuse, NY
Dr. Doris Rapp is a board
certified environmental medical specialist and pediatric allergist. She

Dr. John Mills MD - "Conventional drugs used for treating asthma,
particularly steroids, can impair immune function and lead to more serious
health problems. "Doctors tell you that
steroids
(cortisone, prednisone) only cause side effects after many years. But new
research shows that permanent damage is immediate and devastating. Studies
show that steroids cause permanent, debilitating effects after a single
dosage. Steroids are probably the most sleazy of modern day medications"

drug approach does not offer a long term solution. In my opinion, there
are natural approaches that work to treat the cause of asthma and offer
long term success."learn

sexual dysfunction. Beyond this, aspartame disrupts fetal development by
aborting it or inducing defects. And if a live child is born aspartame
may have heinously damaged the DNA of the baby cursing future generation."

In Radiation Emergencies "The toll of thyroid cancer carried by the

new evidence suggests. And a British cancer expert agrees that had a simple
supplement been given to young children in the former Soviet Union who
were in the path of the radioactive cloud which covered much of Eastern
Europe, much suffering could have been prevented. The disaster, in 1986,
happened when a reactor at Chernobyl, in the now-independent state of Ukraine,
melted down, throwing large quantities of radioactive isotopes into the
atmosphere. One of these, radioactive iodine, is absorbed by the thyroid
gland, particularly in very young children, where it can cause cancer,
in some cases many years later."

For decades, the majority of American doctors, mental health professionals,
the media, and the general public have yielded to the disseminations of
Harvard psychiatrist Joseph Biedeman who successfully evangelized for more
children -- and younger children -- to be medicated with powerful psychiatric
drugs. The blowback from ADHD drugs is reported in the current July 2009
Scientific American Mind article "Do ADHD Drugs Take a Toll on the Brain?"
a comprehensive report of the long-term dangers of ADHD drugs such as Ritalin,
Concerta, Adderall, and Vyvanse. The Centers for Disease Control (CDC)
estimated in 2005 that 9% of boys and 4% of girls in the U.S. were taking
ADHD stimulant medications; and according to a 2007 study, ADHD-drug prescriptions
rose by almost 12 percent a year between 2000 and 2005. ADHD drugs are
either the "amphetamine-like" methylphenidate (e.g., Ritalin and Concerta)
or actual amphetamines (e.g., Adderall and Vyvanse), so it should not be
surprising that long-term use is associated with many hazards. The current
Scientific American Mind piece, authored by Edmund S. Higgins, clinical
associate professor of family medicine and psychiatry at the Medical University
of South Carolina states, "Methylphenidate has a chemical structure similar
to that of cocaine and acts on the brain in a very similar way." In February
2009, neuroscientists at the Rockefeller University reported cocaine-like
structural and chemical alterations in the brains of mice given methylphenidate.

Helping
Children, Not Drugging Them A wide variety of complaints, including over-activity, fatigue, bed-wetting,
inappropriate behavior, and even epilepsy, in some children, may be due
to allergies. Allergic infants can be so hyperactive that they rock their
cribs about the room or bounce them off the walls and begin to walk earlier
than normal. By isolating and correcting this, the child can be helped
so that there are no symptoms and no need for drugs.
Benefits
of routine infant circumcision have been thoroughly disproven. Studies
have shown that circumcision, far from being a harmless and painless procedure,
is one of the most painful procedures that can be performed on an infant
and has potentially far-reaching detrimental physical and psychological
consequences.
I didn't know what circumcision was when I consented to have my three
sons circumcised. My doctor had told me the surgery was a necessary health
measure, that it didn't hurt, and that it only took a moment to perform...
like cutting the umbilical cord, I thought. I certainly wasn't prepared
when, in nursing school several years later, I saw the surgery for the
first time.
"We students filed into the newborn nursery to find a baby strapped
spread-eagle to a plastic board on a counter top across the room. He was
struggling against his restraints —tugging, whimpering, and then crying
helplessly. . . . I stroked his little head and spoke softly to him. He
began to relax and was momentarily quiet. The silence was soon broken by
a piercing scream—the baby’s reaction to having his foreskin pinched and
crushed as the doctor attached the clamp to his penis. The shriek intensified
when the doctor
inserted an instrument between the foreskin and the glans (head of
the penis), tearing the two structures apart. The baby started shaking
his head back and forth—the only part of his body free to move—as the doctor
used another clamp to crush the foreskin lengthwise, which he then cut.
This made the opening of the foreskin large enough to insert a circumcision
instrument, the device used to protect the glans from being severed during
the surgery. The baby began to gasp and choke, breathless from his shrill
continuous screams. . . . During the next stage of the surgery, the doctor
crushed the foreskin against the circumcision instrument and then, finally,
amputated it. The baby was limp, exhausted, spent."...more

Dental Fluorisis
- Children at Risk Have you seen children and young adults among your family and friends
with those whitish spots or flecks on their teeth or, in more extreme cases,
dark streaks that look like decay? This is the effect of dental fluorosis,
the first visible sign of overexposure to fluoride. In some communities,
the incidence of dental fluorosis is 30 to 60 percent or more. Fluoride
ingestion from mouth rinses and dentifrices in children is extremely hazardous
to biological development, life span and general health. Research from
China has shown a correlation between exposure to low doses of fluoride
and diminished IQ in children.
Research is beginning to show that the cavity-fighting power of fluoride
may have been overstated. Recent studies in the Journal of Dental Research
conclude that tooth decay rates in Western Europe, which is 98 percent
unfluoridated, have declined as much as they have in the United States
in recent decades. Indeed, it's only in the United States that fluoride
is championed by the government.
Most European nations -- including Germany, France, Sweden and Holland
-- prohibit fluoride on public health grounds. .
Homeopathy
for Children and Infants A growing number of parents are concerned about the potential side
effects of conventional drugs and are now turning to the safer medicine-homeopathy.
Infants and children respond so well to homeopathic medicines that the
good results they experience often encourage the parents to try the remedies
themselves. It is time that parents and physicians seek safe, natural and
effective alternatives to conventional, potentially harmful drugs. Homeopathic
medicine is one such alternative. Learn about homeopathic medicine for
childhood ailments such as bedwetting, chicken pox, measles, colds, flus,
teething, constipation, sore throats, earaches, diarrhea, and much more.
What
Every Parent Should Know BEFORE Their Childen Are Vaccinated! Why
are a growing number of parents and health care professionals around the
world questioning vaccination? The controversy stems from the thousands
of deaths and permanent disabilities attributed to vaccination annually,
as well as the many published medical studies, government statistics, congressional
testimonies, and other credible sources that directly contradict commonly
held assumptions about vaccine safety and effectiveness.
Bart Classen, a Maryland physician, published data showing that diabetes
rates rose significantly in New Zealand following a massive hepatitis B
vaccine campaign in young children, and that diabetes rates also went up
sharply in Finland after three new childhood vaccines were introduced.

In fall 1997, two influential professional magazines featured articles
asking the question: Has the decrease of infectious diseases in childhood
through the mass use of vaccines been replaced with an increase in chronic
diseases such as diabetes and asthma? The Economist, a prestigious international
magazine read by world leaders in government, business and public policy,
and Science News, a magazine read by both health care professionals
and the general public, explored the reported links between vaccines and
chronic diseases in their November 22, 1997 issues.

Viera Scheibner, Ph.D - "Ever since mass vaccination of
infants began, reports of serious brain, cardiovascular, metabolic and
other injuries started filling pages of medical journals."
Dr. Buttram - "At the present time there are growing public and
professional concerns about the safety of currently mandated childhood
vaccine programs, as reflected in by a series of annual Congressional hearings
in Washington DC that have taken place since 1999, sponsored by the U.S.
House Government Reform Committee under the chairmanship of Congressman
Dan Burton. At an annual conference of the American College for the Advancement
of Medicine during April 2001, with several hundred physicians in attendance,
when one of the speakers asked how many in attendance had concerns about
the safety of current childhood vaccines, a large majority raised their
hands. The Autism Research Institute of San Diego is now widely known as
an active support group for families with autistic children and is one
of the more active organizations in this field. Its founding director,
Bernard Rimland, Ph.D., has provided the statistics that, in their experience,
from 50 to 60% of parents with autistic children believe that their children
were damaged by vaccines. In our own office we have seen many autistic
children in recent years, and our own experience has been very similar,
many parents reporting that deterioration of their children took place
following vaccines."
"Many infants who suffer the so-called 'shaken baby syndrome' may
be victims of undiagnosed vaccine damage.
Viera Scheibner, Ph.D - "A great number of babies now die
within days or within two to four weeks of birth after
hepatitis
B vaccination, as documented by the records of the VAERS [Vaccine Adverse
Event Reporting System] in the USA.) So, the baby stops progressing, starts
deteriorating, and usually develops signs of respiratory tract infection.
Then comes the second and third injections, and tragedy strikes: the child
may cry intensely and inconsolably, may stop feeding properly, vomit, have
difficulty swallowing, become irritable, stop sleeping, and may develop
convulsions with accelerating progressive deterioration of its condition
and mainly its brain function.
This deterioration may be fast, or may slowly inch in until the parents
notice that something is very wrong with their child and then rush it to
the doctor or hospital. Interestingly, they are invariably asked when the
baby was immunised. On learning that the baby was indeed "immunised", the
parents may be reassured that its symptoms will all clear up. They are
sent home with the advice, "Give your baby Panadol". If they persist in
considering the baby's reaction serious, they may be labelled as anxious
parents or trouble-makers. So the parents go home, and the child remains
in a serious condition or dies.
Until recently, the vaccine death would have just been labelled "sudden
infant death", particularly if the symptoms and pathological findings were
minimal. However, nowadays, with an alarmingly increasing frequency, the
parents (or at least one of them, usually the father) may be accused of
shaking the baby to death" Viera Scheibner, PhD.

This simple safe treatment is utilized during times of detoxification,
infection and inflammation to boost the immune system by iincreasing circulation
and white blood cells as well as speeding up healing time. It’s best to
start the wet sock treatment on first day of an illness, ideally repeating
it for three nights in a row.
Take a pair of cotton socks and soak them completely with ice cold water.
Be sure to wring the socks out thoroughly so they do not drip.
Warm your feet first. This is very important as the treatment will
not be as effective and could be harmful if your feet are not warmed first.
Warming can be accomplished by soaking your feet in warm water for at least
5-10 minutes or taking a warm bath for 5-10 minutes.
Dry off feet and body with a dry towel.
Place ice cold wet socks on feet. Cover with thick wool socks.
Go directly to bed. Avoid getting chilled.
Keep the socks on overnight. You will find that the wet cotton socks
will be dry in the morning.

Childhood
Insomnia We all struggle to sleep sometimes and children
are no exception. Sometimes sleep problems become chronic and a pattern
of insomnia sets in. This can cause much frustration for children and their
parents and can even result in relationship difficulties if the problem
is not addressed. If you find yourself struggling to put your child to
sleep night after night, then it is important to do something about it.
Childhood
Anxiety Children are also vulnerable to stress. Some
children suffer from anxiety and shyness and may struggle to adjust to
new situations like school and friendships. Others experience worries about
their safety or have intense fear of the dark, insects, animals or other
creatures.
Natural
Remedy for Bedwetting Bedwetting is common during the
pre-school years and children vary in their ability to control their bladders
at nighttime. It is quite normal for a child under the age of five to wet

at night. 'Accidents' do happen and should be dealt with kindly and sensitively
in order to prevent emotional problems. Children who wet their beds should
not be punished.
