May I please have the package insert for the flu vaccine?"

Sandra Ganey
7 hrs · Portland, OR ·

Me: "May I please have the package insert for the flu vaccine?"
Rite-Aid Pharmacist: "Why?"
Me: "So I can read it."
P: "Which one?"
Me: "The one advertised with the little banners on every aisle."
P: "I will print you the information sheet."
Me: "No, that's not the same thing."
P: "What do you want to know? I can tell you."
Me: "I would just like to read the whole thing before I consider getting one...side effects, contraindications, effectiveness, ingredients like mercury."
P: "I don't think I have any. Let me check. (checks) Sorry, I can't give you one until the box is empty, because it has to stay in the box. And there is no thimerisol in the single dose flu shot any more. I can print you the information sheet."
Pharmacy co-worker with big smile at me: "Hi, here you go, I found you one." (hands me insert).
***
Here are some things in the insert not on the store's sheet:
1. The single dose vial contains mercury at 1mcg (This is called a "trace amount" by the industry.) (The multi-vial contains 25 mcg.)
2. People with egg allergies are contraindicated.
3. "Safety and effectiveness have not been established in pregnant women, nursing mothers and children under four. There are no adequate and well-controlled studies in pregnant women. This vaccine should be used during pregnancy only if clearly needed. It is not known whether fluvarin is excreted in human milk."
4. "Fluvarin has not been evaluated for carcinogenic or mutagenic potential, or for impairment of fertility."
5. "Antibody response is low in the geriatric population."
6. "Serious reactions, including anaphylactic shock, have been observed."
7. "There are no data to assess the concomitant administration of flu vaccine with other vaccines."
8. "The vaccine is associated with an increased frequency of Guillain-Barre syndrome."
9. "In some studies, fluvarin protected up to 50% of subjects."

Yes, I went back and showed the pharmacist the trace amount and he was genuinely puzzled, kept staring at it and scratching his head, thanked me for the information.

The only fish oil supplement that I even like anymore is the Cod Liver Oil Lemon by Carlson.  I like the combo with unpasteurized raw butter oil, ala Weston A. Price.
For rebuilding of teeth, of course.  I did totally repair ONE molar with it and monosodium phosphate.

We LOVE the plant based seed oil, especially the one from Rain International called Rain Soul.  And also the one from Activation Products is also good too, and we have and use both.  A balanced omega 3 ratio blend.

My new favorite probiotic and prebiotic is Arthur Andrew Medical Syntol AMD.  It was sent to me in a sample packet when I ordered the Arthur Andrew Medical Serratia proteolytic enzyme serrapeptase.  This one also has serrapeptase, as well as the other proteolytic systemic enzymes, and pre-biotic/pro-biotic in it.

Yes, it has cellulose as part of the capsule, but it's savable, so it is re-encapsulated into a better capsule.

Put in a gelatin capsule and it's a good product. It still works for me.

So I like the Arthur Andrew Medical proteolytic systemic enzymes and probiotic/prebiotic.  And cellulase is an enzyme, so is WAY different than cellulose.  I know. Some of the names can be confusing.

Arthur Andrew Medical Neprinol Capsules AFD (Advanced Fibrin Defense) is a super strong proteolytic enzyme formula. Same with the capsules from it too.  Re-encapsulate.  All three of those are savable.   Great help for dissolving biofilms and usage with NAC for an even better effect. Be sure to buy bovine gelatin capsules from PureBulk.com due to the cellulose capsules.  Gelatin capsules are much safer,

I love sodium ascorbate form of Vitamin C, and we make it from scratch also Gerard Judd protocol
Buy bulk Ascorbic Acid and put one teaspoon of it, and mix a half of a teaspoon of  baking soda.  Put a little water in it, and watch it fizz. After the fizz is gone, then put more water in it and drink it.  That is FRESH made sodium ascorbate.

I have bought the ascorbic acid from BulkSupplements:
BulkSupplements Pure Ascorbic Acid (Vitamin C) Powder (1 Kilogram)
from BulkSupplements

Now, BulkSupplements do have the ready-made Sodium Ascorbate too.
Bulksupplements Pure Sodium Ascorbate Powder (1 Kilogram)
from BulkSupplements

Sodium Ascorbate form of Vitamin C is GREAT for the skin, joints, nails as it helps in producing collagen.

There is a Liposomal C that alot of folks like.  Lypo-Spheric™ Vitamin C .  We have never tried this one, but there are good reviews of it.  But just so you know, there is soy lecithin in the Phosphatidylcholine, and my personal preference is sunflower lecithin.



We are unsure of the Xanthan Gum.  Still have to do research on that one too.  We're still researching these things, you know.

Making the fresh sodium ascorbate is much easier and less expensive, since buying the ascorbic acid and baking soda in bulk.  It's doing its job, and saves us the money.

Excipients and unnecessary ingredients such as Maltodextrin, Cellulose, microcrystalline cellulose hypromellose, Hydroxypropyl Methylcellulose, rice bran, rice flour (fillers), and other extraneous crap. While rice may be non-harmful, it's a FILLER, thereby to weaken the product.

Search of my other posts on here about the crap ingredients...
http://messiahmews.blogspot.com/search?q=Hypromellose
http://messiahmews.blogspot.com/search?q=Cellulose

I like making my own and anything with cellulose listed and the words (vegetarian capsules) in parenthesis, means that cellulose is part of the capsules.

Like this...



Since the cellulose listed in above two graphics as being only part of the capsule, then the product is savable and can be re-encapsulated into safer capsules.  I use the gelatin capsules.

And sometimes the label may read like this...


Cellulose is still part of the capsule, but there are other ingredients like vegetable glycerin (who knows what that really is!).

Now, look at this one...


You see  cellulose in lower case and then (vegetarian capsule).  which means that one is part of the capsule.

BUT... you also see Cellulose with a comma , after it, which means part of the mix too.  So re-encapsulating it, only means lowering the cellulose content, but yet still have some in the mix.  So the product is UN-savable, which means find another product.  So that's how you can tell it's part of the mix too.

Find a product with a formula that is desired, buy the ingredients separately and in bulk and do a DIY encapsulation yourselves.  I prefer the BulkSupplements brand.

I LOVE the Magnesium-Ease from Activation products.  This form of magnesium is Magnesium Hexahydrate.

My posts on EASE:  http://messiahmews.blogspot.com/search?q=Ease-Magnesium

But I do use the trans-dermal oil spray from TransDerma Minerals too, as it's a different form of magnesium.  That form is Magnesium Chloride.

This one from Ancient Minerals:

Sometimes we buy the Natural Vitality Natural Calm Magnesium from the health food store. Mix in water and drink before bedtime.

Micronutrient Sufficiency Quiz

I prefer to avoid any supplements that contain cellulose, microcrystalline cellulose, hypermellose, maltodextrin, silicon dioxide, titanium dioxide, nano metals, rice bran (a filler) and any other un-needed ingredients and unnecessary fillers.

See my rants (err... posts) here:  http://messiahmews.blogspot.com/search?q=Cellulose

Grains (wheat, oats, barley, rye and corn which is almost always GMO) will interfere with nutrient absorption.  Celiac disease.
Recommendations from Dr. Joel Wallach and Dr. Peter Glidden that everybody must ELIMINATE from their diet...

10 BAD FOODS (according to Drs. Joel Wallach & Peter Glidden):

  1. Wheat (No Gluten or Gliadian Protein)
  2. Barley
  3. Rye
  4. Oats, Oatmeal – even if it says that it’s gluten free.
  5. Fried Food – nothing fried! You should boil, broil or bake and never more than medium rare for red meat.
  6. Oils – Yes, this includes Olive Oil! NO canola, NO coconut, etc… If it has OIL in the name don’t use it. This also includes anything made from oil, like salad dressing. Dr. Wallach recommends using salt and lemon juice as a salad dressing. No margarine or combo spreads. No mayonnaise. Nothing made from oils.
  7. No burned fats – If you grill your food, try to have something between the food and the fire (like aluminium foil) so the juice doesn’t drip onto the flame and deposit dangerous things on the meat.
  8. Any nitrates added to meat – (ie: deli meats) tell your butcher NO NITRATES or NITRITES!
  9. No carbonated drinks of any kind within one hour before, during or one hour after meals.
  10. Skin of a baked potato (or yam, or sweet potato). If you boil a potato, you can eat the skins.

Dr. Wallach even discourages use of olive oil and coconut oil.  We do use a little of it ourselves, but sparingly. 

More later...
