Happy October everyone!
I hadn't written on this particular topic in a couple of years and since my newsletter list has grown so much in that time, I thought it important to address the topic of the flu and flu shots again, especially since I'm seeing the familiar signs posted everywhere: "Get Your Flu Shot Here!"
The familiar scare tactics are once again in place to coerce people into thinking we need protection from these "deadly viruses" in the form of vaccines. Personally, I won't ever knowingly or voluntarily receive any flu vaccine.

I did a quick search to see which country or which animal (pig, bird, etc.) was being blamed for this year's potential flu outbreak, but they may have exhausted them all (although I haven't heard of the possum flu yet).
I believe the emphasis, like the last 2 years, is on 2 kinds of flu vaccines; seasonal and H1N1 (swine flu) combined into one. But do you REALLY need a flu shot and do you know exactly what is IN a flu shot?
First, we should briefly explore the "logic" behind the flu vaccine. The idea is to inject what is referred to as an "attenuated" virus into the body. Apparently this means that it's not a "live" virus, but contains identital properties - enough to create a flu-like environment in the body and cause an immune reaction that will prevent the flu from occuring. Problem? Since it IS a flu virus, many people do experience flu-like symptoms from the vaccination itself AND many actually come down with the flu anyway.
In addition to the flu virus, here are most of the additional ingredients that are also in a flu shot; ingredients that your doctor is not going to reveal to you: - Egg proteins, including avian contaminant viruses
- Gelatin, known to cause allergic reactions and anaphylaxis are usually associated with sensitivity to egg or gelatin
- Polysorbate 80 (Tween80™), which can cause severe allergic reactions, including anaphylaxis
- Formaldehyde: a known carcinogen
- Triton X100: a strong detergent
- Sucrose (table sugar)
- Resin, known to cause allergic reactions
- Gentamycin, an antibiotic
- Thimerosal: mercury is still in multidose vials

Not surprisingly, the H1N1 Flu never escalated into the pandemic that the talking heads said it would.
In fact, hospitalizations were actually similar to or lower than for any seasonal flu. Many fewer cases were reported than were expected and mortality from the flu was nowhere near what they predicted.
In 2009, government projections listed the number of Americans that would be infected at an astounding 150 million people! The actual results were 150 times LESS than that!
Each year, government projections to the media have been designed to induce compliance in getting the flu vaccine which, in fact, increases the risk of sickness and death - far more so than the chances of actually contracting the flu.
These particular flu viruses are really no different from many other flu viruses that have been contained, died out, come and gone. They simply have different names.
Compared to the tens of thousands who die every day from various other diseases, the flu is quite subdued and primarily affects people the most whose immune systems are already weakened or compromised.
However, no one wants to get sick or contract any flu and certain precautions are always advised.
The best way to strengthen your immune system and help ward off flu bugs is to eat a good variety of organic foods, primarily fruits and vegetables, nuts and seeds, don't eat or drink anything that is processed or contains chemicals, be very cautious about taking medicines, and take a complete source of nutrients, herbs and vitamins that are proven to help the body's own immune system to help fight off the "bad guys", such as the nutrients found in intraMax, intraKid and intraMin.
I cannot tell you how many people I have spoken with in the last 5 1/2 years that have told me they rarely get sick any more since they've starting taking intraMax. Even if they do, it's not as frequent or as serious as before starting on the product.
I'd like to leave you with this quote by Thomas Edison, a very wise man years ahead of his time. He said, "The doctor of the future will give no medicine, but will interest his patients in the care of the human frame, in a proper diet and in the cause and prevention of disease."
Thank you once again for reading!
Until next month, I remain yours in good health!
Sincerely,
Dr. Mike drmichaelroth@juno.com 214-707-3878 www.SomaHealth.Net
