Washington state lifts limit on mercury preservative in swine-flu shots

Seattle's leading newspaper, Seattle Times says "State lifts limit on mercury preservative in swine-flu shots". September 25, 2009

Time to vaccinate - or not?

Flu vaccines can contain a number of chemical toxins, including ethylene glycol (antifreeze), formaldehyde, phenol (carbolic acid) and even antibiotics like Neomycin and streptomycin. In addition to the viruses and other additives, many vaccines also contain immune adjuvants like aluminium and squalene.

Pandemonium about the pandemic

Most people who get sick never know if its caused by a bacteria or virus. Influenza statistics are therefore unlikely to be correct. The fear instilled by media coverage of swine flu or A/H1N1 is on the other hand increasing the numbers of reported flu cases. So what would normally be treated with a little extra rest and a few pain killers is turning into world statistics.

EU action can harm health

This is a letter to Irish MEP's from the founder and director of the Irish Institute of Nutrition and Health, Richard Burton, Nutritionist, Nutritional Therapist and Acupuncturist.

EU reviews vitamin limits after Irish petition

RESTRICTIVE VITAMIN supplement standards due to be set by the EU are to be re-examined following an Irish petition. The standards, introduced by EU directive, would restrict doses of vitamin D to the equivalent of that produced by 25 seconds of sunlight and prevent the sale of high-dose vitamin C products without prescription.

The EU food supplements directive was given the go-ahead in 2005. However, the maximum permitted levels of ingredients to be contained in supplements has not yet been set.

Success in EU as Irish Petition of Food Supplements is kept open

Today, human canaries are falling ill. It’s time for us to heed this warning and seek safety, says Ingrid Franzon, nutrition practitioner from Sweden.
