Are Your Children at Risk of Over-Vaccination?

Since 1983, the number of vaccines the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) recommends for children has increased 260 percent – from 10 to 36.  “Although the CDC and American Academy of Pediatrics disputes this, more and more experts have linked this practice to the prevalence of such neurological disorders as autism and ADHD (Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder),” said Kathi Bratberg, RN, MS Holistic Nutrition at Alternatives.

Although vaccines are tested individually, the problem may occur when these vaccines are combined in a child’s system, Bratberg noted.  “Why do we test vaccines individually and never consider the combination risk of vaccines administered together?” she asked.

In addition, such substances as mercury, aluminum, formaldehyde, ether and even antifreeze have been found in vaccines, according to the organization Generation Rescue.  “Vaccines are supposed to safeguard health, yet, according to our studies, can also do harm to some children,” the organization said.
