There are several other reasons to avoid the flu vaccine.

The vaccine contains several poisonous chemicals:

• aluminum - a neurotoxin linked to Alzheimer's Disease
• triton x-100 - a detergent
• phenol - an acid
• ethylene glycol - aka. antifreeze
• betapropiolactone - a disinfectant
• nonoxynol - a STD retardant
• octoxinol 9 - a vaginal spermicide

The vaccine may cause several severe reactions:

• severe allergies to the ingredients
• Guillian-Barre Syndrome - a sever paralytic disease
• encephalitis - brain inflammation
• neurological disorders
• thrombocytopenia - a severe blood disorder

Studies show:

• Vaccinating young children has NO impact on flu-related hospitalization or doctor visits.
• Vaccination is NOT associated with a reduced risk of pneumonia in older people.
• Vaccination benefits have been GREATLY exaggerated.
• Vaccination is NO more effective than placebo in children.

Prevent the flu naturally:

• get daily exposure to sunlight to promote vitamin D production.
• take a vitamin D supplement.
• eat plenty of produce and greatly reduce processed food consumption.
• get adequate sleep.
• wash your hands regularly.
• address emotional stress.
• get regular chiropractic adjustments.
• drink plenty of water.
