Violence seems to be erupting among
youths everywhere, from Los Angeles(1) to Omaha(2)
to Brooklyn(3) - indicating something is seriously going
wrong in the minds of young persons in this country.
In July, 2005, the Environmental Working Group released a hallmark study using cord blood to assess the chemical exposure of neonates in-utero. The placenta has long been thought to shield the developing baby from pollutants in the environment. The study's alarming results dispelled this as a wishful myth.
Of the 287 chemicals identified in the umbilical cord blood of 10 infants, 180 were known carcinogens, 217 were toxic to the brain and nervous system, and 208 have been associated with birth defects or abnormal development in animal tests.
The study concluded that,
Within hours of emerging from the womb, a newborn is given a dollop of antibiotics in the eyes, injected with the hepatitis b vaccine, with known neurotoxic properties,(5) and jabbed with a vitamin K shot, which contains 9 mg of benzyl alcohol.
In 1992, Golding published concerns that
vitamin K injections could be associated with a doubled risk of
malignant disease in children, particularly leukemia. While there
have been considerable doubts about whether the association is
coincidental or causal, the controversy has never been completely
resolved.(6)
...all generally given at the same time.
The onslaught of these shots, including
two additional injections of hepatitis b vaccine, repeats twice,
every 60 days. This deposits approximately 66 different viral or
bacterial antigens and measurable amounts of a dozen different
chemicals into a six month old infant.
By the way, all of these substances are
listed on package inserts for each vaccine.
The plethora of diagnoses fall into a
few fairly well defined categories: Conduct disorders, such as
attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD); learning
disabilities, a spectrum of speech delay and comprehension issues;
and mood disorders, which include depression, bipolar disorder and
chronic anxiety.
Disturbingly, in an attempt to quell
their out-of-control behavior, more than two thirds of these
children have been placed on at least one prescription medication.
Since the underlying cause for the sick brain and hyperkinetic
behavior has not been identified and addressed, the drugging is akin
to tightening down the lid on a boiling pot of water.
In 2008, ODD was the most common reason
children were referred to mental health professionals for an
assessment, accounting for at least half of all out patient visits
to psychiatrists and psychiatric practitioners. These children,
mostly boys, are commonly diagnosed and treated for several
coexisting mental disorders.(10)
The DSM (11) is a catalog of hundreds of psychiatric conditions, including a long list of anxiety, personality and adjustment disorders. Diagnoses are available to give children who struggle with math and writing skills a diagnosis (Mathematics Disorder 315.1 and Disorder of Written Expression 315.2, respectively), labeling a child who has a missing skill with a mental deficiency.
New disorders are on the horizon too,
such as Temper Dysregulation Disorder with
Dysphoria (TDD),(12)
a tweak to the current diagnosis of bipolar disorders for children
under the age of ten.
If one drug doesn't work, more are added, perhaps with unintended consequences on behavior. A recent 69-month study identified 484 drugs that accounted for 780,169 serious adverse events, including violence and aggressive behavior.
The drugs were associated with,
Medications most strongly associated with violence(13) were,
Additionally, the anti-psychotics drugs,
Seroquel, Zyprexa and Respirdol, commonly used to treat ODD,(14)
are
among drugs that can lead to violence.
No studies have examined the effect these components have individually on brain function, let alone in combination. Mental health experts try to convince us that the chemical exposures are so small they cannot have negative effects. Same with vaccines.
"Experts" espouse that vaccinations are safe, effective, protective and harmless...
No thought - or research - has been done
to examine the potential problems that can arise from the combined
effect of four or more simultaneous medications, vaccines and
chemicals. There has been little effort by the government (FDA/CDC),
the
pharmaceutical industry or doctors - all of whom profit
handsomely from massive drug and vaccine use - to evaluate the
combined negative effects of these exposures.
The pertussis vaccination can have profound effects on the developing brain of a child, leading to permanent changes in,
Virtually every year - from 1933 to the mid-1980s - a paper was published discussing the adverse effects of the whole cell pertussis vaccine.(15)
Instead of spending more money to create
new drugs and vaccines, we should demand that industry and
governments study the complications and injuries caused by the
combined use of the products we already have.
While many of the questions are about travel vaccines (few of which are required anywhere in the world; they are only recommended), I also get asked,
That question always makes me pause.
I've had the good fortune to have
traveled throughout 57 countries over my life. Only on rare
occasions - and mostly when I was in an ill-advised part of town or
was unaccompanied in a rural area with wild animals I was unfamiliar
with - did I ever feel unsafe. In fact, as a general rule, I have
felt safer off the beaten path in a foreign country than in the
downtown of an unknown, mid-sized city after dark anywhere in the
U.S.
Although economic and social factors,
biological variables and individual dietary practices certainly play
a role in overall health and behavior, the detrimental, combined
effect of chemicals, drugs and vaccines heaped into the brain from
birth is a real concern and is undoubtedly a huge contributor to the
violence rising among America's youths.
Since the Tucson shootings, calls for
stricter licensing and gun registration, more vigorous background
checks prior to purchasing a gun, and a ban on assault weapons are
again on the table. The pros and cons of this debate reach far
beyond the scope of this discussion.
Perhaps stopping the chain of events that result in medically unhealthy and physically sick young brains is the place to start. We owe it to future generations to clearly identify the effect these combined toxic compounds are having on brains of all ages.
Even more importantly, we need to heal
these damaged brains and restore them back to health before the
epidemic of violence gets any worse.
