Hormone disruptors and potential problems

This post is because of the Supreme Court decision legalizing gay marriage all over the United States.  One thing that may have not been considered by many is the amount of hormone disruptors that pregnant women and babies are exposed to and potential consequences.  This entire post is geared to the potential damage to baby boys.  Baby girls also can have damage, but it is different damage.

This information is provided for purposes of risk assessment for families.  This was a short series that I did on Facebook.   I hope it is helpful.

#1 - Appropriate for this week. Not making judgments. Just providing information.
This study covers the problem of mercury exposure in male ibises.  It causes many odd behaviors in the Ibises population.  From the article:  "Birds exposed to any mercury displayed courtship behaviour less often than controls and were also less likely to be approached by females when they did. As the level of mercury exposure increased, so did the degree and persistence of homosexual pairing. Males that engaged in homosexual parings were also less likely to switch partners from year to year, which Frederick says ibises tend to do if they have been unsuccessful in mating during their first breeding season."

Some of the main mercury exposures in the United States today in utero: Amalgam fillings, vaccinations and fish consumption by mama.  Also, living downwind of a coalfired plant or exposure to medical waste.

Mama... be cautious of your little boys developing systems. Trace amounts of mercury from Mama during pregnancy can be damaging for a lifetime.

One of the main mercury exposures before a child is two years old is vaccinations.  Although it is supposed to have been removed from all childhood vaccinations, it is still listed as being in several in trace amounts.  Very, very tiny amounts are all that is necessary for endocrine disruption.

One of the other problems associated with permanently changed sexual tendencies in boys is unfermented soy, exposure either in utero or from formula.

Mercury causes homosexual behavior in male Ibises



#2 -  So... more on developing sexual tendencies. Soy. Again, I am not making judgments, just providing information that I hope you can use to make better risk/reward assessments for your family. I am sad if this information brings you sorrow, but not discussing it helps nothing. My apologies to mamas who could not breastfeed and to vegan mamas who use unfermented soy as a protein substitute. I promise that I am not targeting anyone. Really just giving information regarding homosexuality / vaccinations / heavy metal and other toxicity. Please note the aluminum issue with soy based formulas near the end of the article.
 
From the article: "Male infants are also adversely affected by phytoestrogens. Male babies undergo a testosterone surge during the first few months of life, when testosterone levels may be as high as those of an adult male.

During this period, baby boys are programmed to express male characteristics after puberty, not only in the development of their sexual organs and other masculinity traits, but also in setting patterns in the brain characteristic of male behavior. Flooding his system with female hormones during this time can have severe ramifications on his development, including potentially smaller testes and significantly reduced testosterone levels........

.........Nearly 20 percent of U.S. infants are now fed soy formula, but as demonstrated in the featured study, the estrogens in soy can cause serious long-term harm to your baby's sexual development and reproductive health. It's important to realize that feeding your baby soy formula is like giving her an estimated four to five birth control pills' worth of estrogen every day. Infants fed soy formula have up to 20,000 times the amount of estrogen in circulation as those fed other formulas!.......

......Aside from harmful endocrine disrupters, soy infant formula can also contain over 1,000 percent more aluminum than conventional milk-based formulas. Aluminum is a potent neurotoxin that has been implicated in the development of Alzheimer's disease and other brain disorders. According to a study in Pediatrics, the official journal of the American Academy of Pediatrics4:

"Aluminum is now being implicated as interfering with a variety of cellular and metabolic processes in the nervous system and in other tissues."

But that's not all. Many soy foods also have toxic levels of manganese. Soy formula contains up to 80 times more manganese than is found in human breast milk, and according to recent research, high concentrations of manganese can lead to brain damage in infants and altered behaviors in adolescents.5"




 Plant Estrogens in Soy and how it might decimate the health of your unborn baby and the fertility of future generations

#3 - For those who wish to further study the soy danger issue, the following page has quite a few really interesting links.

Please do not think this information is a personal judgment on anything. It is just to arm families with appropriate risk/reward information as they navigate a toxic world.



Soy and reproductive issues with boys. To the church and to Christian families I want to gently, gently, GENTLY say.... the feminized boy in your class/family may be that way by choices mama made before, during and after pregnancy. Please love this child for who they are, not who you want them to be. Not every boy exposed to soy/heavy metals in utero / early childhood will become feminized.... but some of them will.

Be aware that mama's mercury laden fillings, fish and pregnancy vaccinations, other heavy metals in these products AND/OR soy and other hormone inhibitors may have permanently changed this boy before he was two years old. Please use this biological information as you deal with this topic that is so "in your face" to the Christian church in general.

Please note: I am not telling anyone what to do or think. I am not suggesting you walk away from scripture. I am suggesting that these boys were inherently changed before they could make any choice in the matter. Please take this information into consideration as you deal with these boys in your life.

From the article: "We now have an impressive body of work on the issue of phytoestrogens and male reproduction. These studies have spanned three generations and have taken into account both the human and the rat model of endocrine function. In summary, males exposed to genistein have a shorter ano-genital distance and testis size, and delayed preputial separation. Perinatal exposure to genistein also contributes to long-term dysfunction in reproductive behavior. Adult male rats exposed to genistein are less likely to mount, intromit and ejaculate during mating tests. Male rats exposed to genistein also have lower testosterone concentrations in adulthood. Perinatal genistein exposure resulted in transient and lasting alterations in masculinization of the reproductive system.
The best way to avoid complications in the reproductive health of male offspring is to avoid foods and chemicals that act as estrogen mimics. This starts with mothers, prenatally limiting their exposure to estrogen-containing products in their diets, from birth control pills and from other sources such as pesticides. During pregnancy, the mother’s diet should be quite restrictive of phytoestrogens and therefore of soy-based products. Once the child is born, the best form of nutrition which can be given to the child is breast milk. While breast feeding, mothers should continue to avoid birth control pills and soy foods. Most importantly, soy-based infant formula should be avoided. These formulas, despite common claims to safety, are dangerous to the reproductive health of the male infant.......


...... “We should be thinking at this point of our children and grandchildren. What are we going to tell them if they are sterile or have an altered sexual development?”27........


.......We owe it to our children to offer them the reproductive health that will allow them to have a normal sex life and to father children, simply by limiting amounts of organic estrogens in their diets. Above all else, we owe it to ourselves to be the best possible parents in truly caring for the future of our children by ensuring that our children, and therefore we, truly have a future."

Vaccinations, peanut allergies, gut health

This post is a series of Facebook posts.  It is too difficult to find things on there, though... so here they are.  I will add another portion later covering the bacteria that is needed to  help resolve the peanut allergy problem.

***********************************


If you or someone you know has a peanut allergy, this article covers some of the possible reasons.
There is some promising research which shows a bacteria present in many raw milk cultures may lower the risk of anaphylaxis.

It is important to consider all potential reasons... No matter how uncomfortable it makes you.
From the article: "But with the newfound research, the medical profession will do what they always must do – bury it. Protect the companies. So no money will be ever allocated from NIH to study the obvious connection between vaccine excipients and peanut allergy. That cannot happen, primarily because it would require a control group – an unvaccinated population. And that is the Unspoken Forbidden."

 ******************************

So... From this excellent article... this is what every man, woman and child needs to know about vaccines: "Vaccine manufacturers do not have to disclose all vaccine ingredients to consumers.

It is important to note that in 1973, when peanut allergies were still relatively rare, a study was conducted on the effects of peanut excipients in vaccines. Not long after it was published; however, government regulators decided that vaccine manufacturers no longer had to label peanut excipients in vaccines, which means pediatricians, parents, and others who wanted to avoid peanut excipients for safety reasons could no longer effectively do so.

“What is listed today in the Physicians Desk Reference in each vaccine section is not the full formula,” adds Dr. O’Shea. “Suddenly that detailed information was proprietary: the manufacturers must be protected. They only had to describe the formula in general.”

Since that time, peanut allergies have only gotten more prevalent and more severe, and the vast majority of the population has no idea that peanut excipients still used in vaccines are largely responsible. Will this ever change? Only if government regulators and medical authorities suddenly develop consciences will this monumental medical fraud be widely exposed and properly addressed.

In his book The Doctor Within, Dr. Tim O’Shea argues that vaccines are largely responsible for both the advent and increased prevalence of peanut allergy, noting that many vaccines and even antibiotic drugs contain excipients derived from peanut oil. Since it is a relatively inexpensive oil to produce, refined peanut oil became widely adopted as an excipient of choice in the production of vaccines during the 1960s, and it is still widely used today for this purpose."

This is what is on the FDA website regarding peanut oil. Although I am still looking, I believe it is grandfathered in as law. As far as I can tell, it appears that This means it does not have to be listed as an ingredient or process and can be protected by trade secret laws.
From the FDA review : "Based on these considerations, the Select Committee concludes that: There is no evidence in the available information on coconut oil, peanut oil, and oleic acid that demonstrates, or suggests reasonable grounds to suspect, a hazard to the public as they are now used in paper and cotton packaging material for food at levels now current or as they might reasonably be expected to be used for such purposes in the future. There is no evidence in the available information on linoleic acid that demonstrates, or suggests reasonable grounds to suspect, a hazard to the public when it is used as a nutrient or dietary supplement at levels now current or that might reasonably be expected in the future."

An overview of the GRAS process. From the paper : "You see, Doctor, we understand that vaccine manufacturers are protected by trade secrets and are not obliged to reveal all the ingredients in vaccines, even to doctors. These secret substances are termed “GRAS” (short for “Generally Recognized As Safe”). One of them is peanut oil:

“The exact composition of vaccines cannot and will not be disclosed under an exemption that protects business information with the Access to Information Act in Canada and the Freedom of Information Act in the US. Similarly, trade secrets are also exempt under the British Freedom of Information Act. Thus the guidelines to label refined peanut oil/moral obligation to label peanut oil are in conflict with laws protecting trade secrets. Full disclosure of excipients was not and continues not to be general practice in the US or Canada.” [1]"

Can a food manufacturer determine that an ingredient is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) and maintain trade secrets information on that ingredient? 
******************************************************
From the article: "It would be nice to think that experts who sit on the committees that approve vaccine safety and licensing would make note of the rise in allergies to these foods in the general population, and be able to make the link that the development of these allergies is due to the body's immune rejection of ingested food proteins resulting from a prior immune reaction to injected vaccine food proteins. It would also be nice to think that at least the proper safety studies would be done to see if the injection of these food proteins manifests in a clinically significant way in humans. Many clinicians, and parents, are already seeing this connection. I believe, however, that these experts are not doing their due diligence, and are looking right past the evidence. There seems to be a concerted effort to avoid doing the studies that would solidify our scientific knowledge. Until then, I support the precautionary principle."

********************************************************

This is a clinical trial using adjunct 65-4 (a peanut oil derivative) .... Why am I posting this? Because as I research I see where all pro vax sources swear up and down there is not now, nor has there been, peanut oil as an adjunct. This clinical trial says otherwise.

Always, always, always follow the money.

They use this oil because it makes vaccines effective for a longer period of time. I do not know what name it goes by.... But someone here is not being honorable. I would suggest industry has the ethical issues.

A comparison was made of the antibody response and subjective reactions to zonally-purified influenza vaccine in aqueous suspension and in peanut oil adjuvant 65-4. Both preparations contained 700 CCA units of A/Aichi/2/68, and...

This one is a "blast from the past".... 1964 to be precise.  Near the beginning of peanut oil being used to maintain titers for longer. 



*********************

From me: If I had a child with a peanut allergy, I would exercise a skeptical amount of overabundant caution regarding vaccinations. Certainly I would research it.

I have spent several hours looking at the "pro-vaccine" sites - especially regarding peanut allergy issues. All they seem to have is "it is not listed on the ingredients or in the process"...... and "they are not going to put something in that is not listed". Since I believe the first statement is irrelevant and the second statement to be untrue, I would be very very cautious regarding vaccines.

I am studying the best way to reduce the reaction to peanut allergies. The heart of this problem may be resolved with a bacteria commonly found in cultured raw milk products. Still researching though.
Food allergies and vaccines .... and a possible road to (either partial or complete) recovery using lacto fermented foods is generally the answer.

From the article: " research published in Heather Fraser’s 2011 book, The Peanut Allergy Epidemic, illuminates the vaccine connection much more specifically. Peanut oil is used as a vaccine excipient. And, this usage has become increasingly widespread until, by the 1980s, it was the preferred excipient. Prior to 1980, peanut oil was used occasionally, or not at all.

An excipient is defined as a component other than the original medication. This is a problem with vaccines, because it is so difficult to define the original “medication” in a vaccine. In general, excipients are the substances added to preserve, stabilize or otherwise dilute the viral antigens.3
Peanut oil (even the most refined) still contains some traces of intact peanut proteins. Intact proteins do not belong in the human body. The digestive system is designed to break down these antigenic substances into peptides and amino acids, non-allergenic building blocks of proteins, which your body then uses to build tissue.

This contamination with intact, allergy inducing proteins is why doctors are directed to inject vaccines intramuscularly, rather than intravenously in hopes of lessening the chance of reactions. However, it is obvious from the epidemic of peanut allergies that this measure has been inadequate..........

........So, our children are being injected with a substance that can cause life-threatening allergic reactions, and what was the government’s response? The first study of peanut allergies that focused on the use of peanut oil in vaccines was conducted in 1973. Soon afterwards, and as a result of that study, manufacturers were no longer required to disclose all of the ingredients in their vaccines, thereby limiting their liability. The detailed information became “proprietary” and the precise ingredient list was no longer disclosed.

However, childhood vaccination has become the sacred cow of pediatrics. Many of the parents in my practice, who do not wish to have their children vaccinated, are regularly abused by health care professionals, both doctors and nurses.




***************************************

On the subject of Peanut allergies, peanut oil as an adjuvant and vaccine labeling: Please exercise an abundance of caution in vaccinating if your child has peanut allergies.

So.... on to the labeling for vaccines. The question is "can vaccine ingredients and processes be protected by trade secrets?" I always find if you just go step, step, step, step and not shy away from what you find, eventually the truth becomes known.

My steps took me to several court cases between big companies (two equal adversaries). So far... trade secrets are alive and well in the pharma industry. As I am traveling this path, I see hints that as long as the FDA approves it, trade secrets rule, even on labeling. However, confirming that knowledge is further down the road for another day.

So, from two mega-giant pharma corporations fighting it out in court over the chickenpox vaccination:

From the records: "In the present case, Merck's initial disclosure described its entire process as a protectable trade secret. Then, following discovery, it narrowed that broad trade secret claim to fit the particular aspects of the production process Merck claimed were misappropriated by SmithKline. SmithKline was initially put on notice through Merck's broad disclosure but was subsequently informed well in advance of trial of the specific aspects of the trade secret Merck believed SmithKline misappropriated. It cannot be said SmithKline was prejudiced in any way........

......The term trade secret encompasses a process that “[d]erives independent economic value, actual or potential, from not being generally known to, and not being readily ascertainable by proper means by, other persons who can obtain economic value from its disclosure or use; and is [ ] the subject of efforts that are reasonable under the circumstances to maintain its secrecy.” 6 Del. C. § 2001(4). Whether the trade secrets were generally known or readily ascertainable and whether Merck took reasonable precautions to protect their secrecy is a question of fact. See Injection Research Specialists, Inc. v. Polaris Indus., L.P., Fed. Cir., 168 F.3d 1320, 48 U.S.P.Q.2d 1719, 1726 (Aug. 13, 1998). Such a finding is reviewed for a determination of whether it is supported by substantial evidence, see Collins v. Burke, Del.Supr., 418 A.2d 999, 1004 (1980), and is not clearly erroneous. See Levitt v. Bouvier, Del.Supr., 287 A.2d 671, 673 (1972).

So... Adjuvants and allergies. CAN a pharma company use an adjuvant such as peanut oil or other things without listing it in their process or on their ingredient list?
