To flu shot or not to flu shot?? That seems to be the question this time of year.??I am regularly seeing or hearing of people getting the flu shot for?themselves and/or their kids.? I have only got a flu shot one time in my life that I can recall.? My kids have never had a flu shot and I think it’s safe to say that while?I have a say in the matter?that it won’t happen.??I believe that?the only way to stay healthy is?by taking care of ourselves and building up a strong immune system.

That’s why?my family and I?don’t?eat out very often?since I don’t know what is in their food.? We do eat out, just not?much and we try to make healthier choices when we do.? We buy organic foods and try to get them in their most natural and whole form.?Lots of fruits and veggies are eaten in our house and we drink a ton of water.? No sugary juice or soda here.? I often tell my boys that water is the best thing to drink because God made it.? Anything made by God in it’s true form is good for us.??We also supplement with good, naturally made vitamins and minerals.?

I have to wonder about the people rushing out to get their flu shots and?if they really know what they are getting.? I would think that if they knew what they were putting in their body that they would stop quickly and never do it again.? If you take a few minutes and do some quick research you can find all of the ingredients in different vaccinations right on the Center for Disease Control website.? Here’s just a brief list of some of the ingredients found in the different flu vaccines.? They do, after all, have 5 flu vaccines listed.? Which flu are you being vaccinated for and do you really want any of this stuff in your body??

- Aluminum – Associated with Alzheimer’s disease and seizures; cancer-causing in laboratory mice.
- Beta-Propiolactone – Known cancer-causing agent; Suspected gastrointestinal, liver respiratory, skin and sense organ poison
- Gelatin – Produced from pieces of calf and cattle skins, de-mineralized cattle bone and pork skin; allergic reactions reported
- Phenol/Phenoxyethanol – Carbolic acid; Used as a disinfectant
- Formaldehyde (Formalin) – Embalming fluid; Poisonous if ingested; Known cancer-causing agent; Linked to leukemia, brain, colon and lymphatic cancer
- Mercury (Thimerisol) -?One of the most poisonous substances known; Minute amounts can cause nerve damage; Linked to Autism
- Micro-organisms- Live and killed viri and bacteria or their toxins
- MSG (Monosodium Glutamate) – A neurotoxin; Being studied for mutagenic, teratogenic and reproductive effects
- Polysorbate 80 – Known to cause cancer in animals

Did you know all of that?? There is not one item listed on here that I want in my body or that I would feel comfortable putting in my kids’ bodies.? Like I stated earlier, all of this info can be found at the CDC website.?

I don’t know how many times I hear of people getting their flu shot and they still end up with the flu.? Why do you suppose that is???It could be because?the manufacturers supply for one kind of strain of flu and that strain may or may not be the right one.? These manufacturers are only human and they have no idea what strain is going to appear.? They’re basically taking a crap shot and making money on it, whether they’re right or not.? It could also be that people are literally putting so much garbage in their body?that they have no way to fight off any kind of sickness they come into contact with, whether they’ve been vaccinated or not.?

You may get tired of hearing me say this, but do your research.? Don’t just do whatever your doctor, teacher, friend, mom or whoever else tells you to do.? Step away from all of the hype built up about the flu and make the best decision for yourself and your family.? Remember who is pushing??the information into society that you must get flu shots, it’s the pharmaceutical industry.? Also remember who benefits the most from you getting your flu shots, again it’s the pharmaceutical industry.? You may hear it from a doctor that it’s necessary, but who is telling them? “Oh my” it’s the pharmaceutical industry again.?
