Proof Australians Are Suffering From Toxic Agricultural Chemicals !

April 2, 2010 by Leave a Comment

When I first heard about Activated Liquid Zeolite, and the incredible story of our toxic environment, I was shocked. Naturally, I sent on a mission to tell others how our lives are threatened by environmental toxins and the good news that we can do something to minimize their impact!

Unfortunately, many people either don’t want to know about this, or simply don’t understand the impact herbicides, pesticides and heavy metals have on human health. Let’s face it, every time we bite into a ripe apple, we are taking in toxins as well as all the nutritious benefits.

Compelling Evidence for Toxicity In Australia and the World

Well for those of you who are still skeptical, think again! Chanel 9′s 60 minutes, in a 13 minute story, drops a bomb on this subject. In just 13 minutes, you will be convinced! The really scary thing is that this story is only about 2 of the thousands of chemicals out there.

While you are watching this video, please not what is said about fruit and vegetables and toxic labeling requirements. What they misrepresent is that packaged food has no requirements to list heavy metals, or pesticides used in the growing of raw materials for their products. This is not limited to fresh fruit and veggies.

So settle back and watch this, and then leave a comment on this story and tell e if I am scaremongering, or over the top!

The Amazing Benefits Of Detoxification

February 28, 2010 by Leave a Comment

My discovery in 2006 of Activated Liquid Zeolite, excited me as it reinforced what I had already learned about toxins and their effects on humans. This article contains vital information that may shock you, and will level you with a clear understanding of what toxins can do to affect your health. Awareness of these invisible killers is essential if we are to thrive in the future.

Toxins Affect Everyone

Like it or not, toxins affect all of us. There are thousands of them in the air we breathe, Water we drink and the food we eat. Most homes are riddled with toxins in the carpets, cleaning materials, and even paint on the walls. They interfere with body functions and can affect your mind, body and spirit in profound ways. Experts suggest up to 85% of disease has its origins in toxins, and this probably explains the huge increase in autoimmune diseases such as allergies, cancer, arthritis, dementia and diabetes in recent years.

Are Medications Toxic?

One cause of toxicity often overlooked is prescription drugs. For the most part every time you take an additional medication, you add to the toxic burden of the body. Unfortunately many people take more medications for the side effects of drugs they are taking, leading to a vicious cycle that can end in the immune system breaking down.

Another source of toxicity comes from lifestyle and relationships. The atmosphere of your living space, harmony of relationships, how you feel about your work all play a part in how toxic your body is. Every time we suppress an emotion, we increase the toxic load on our body. This interferes with our natural elimination process.

Body Burden

I love this concept. Did you know that when someone dies, their body now takes longer to decompose, and in some people they have measured up to 6 pounds of toxins!

Consider your body like a see saw. Your health sits on one end and on the other the toxins in your body. As you consume more stuff full of toxins, the weight on the other end increases. Eventually the amount becomes sufficient to tip the scales and you start feeling ill. The toxins have an accumulative effect, so once they affect your health, you continue to worsen.

Now you have a few options. You can do something to suppress the pain, or remove some of the toxins and get back into balance. Removing the toxins, allows your immune system to switch on again, and prevents further illness. When we first experience pain, it is a signal to us that we are not living right, and that we need to make some changes. When you do this, the pain often disappears. Removing toxins will not only restore your health, but if you keep going and get most of them out, you will be resilient against further attacks.

Some Health Professionals don’t believe in detoxification. They assert that the body does this normally, and that anyone suggesting a detox program is simply trying to get your money. I find this irresponsible as I have seen thousands improve their health by removing toxins.

Where Do These Toxins Accumulate?

Well, everywhere! They lodge in your bones, fat cells, brain, and body tissue. The organs that attempt to eliminate them are the Colon, Appendix, Liver, Kidneys, and Thyroid. When any of these organs causes a problem you can be almost certain toxins are involved.

Some expound the theory that nutrition can eliminate these nasty toxins. To some extent this is true, particularly antioxidants. They certainly help the immune system do its job and eliminate free radical damage. Unfortunately, when your body is toxic, It doesn’t fully take up nutrients, and until the toxic load on the body has been reduced, it is difficult to get your systems operating as they should.

Removing toxins from Your Body

Some of the methods of removing toxins are breathwork, clean water, colon cleansing and activated liquid zeolite. These are some of the most effective I have found and are the subject of another article.

Results of detoxification

Most of us are totally unaware of the damage these invisible killers cause. Often just a few days after commencing a detox program we feel more energy and vitality, think clearer, and develop a more positive attitude to life. Often we take how we feel for granted, with no idea that it can be caused by our environment!

Summary.

Detoxification is becoming an essential part of maintaining optimal health. We can no longer avoid toxins. We are being damaged by them every day. What we can do is take action to minimize exposure and get them out of the body before they do too much damage.

Why You May Not Be Getting Full Value From Your Supplements

February 18, 2010 by 6 Comments

Did you ever wonder why some people seem to receive amazing health improvements after taking dietary supplements while there is no effect on others? Is removing toxins the missing link in supplementation?

We Know Supplements Work

I have been searching for answers to this question for years. As a distributor of high quality supplements which have changed people’s lives, why didn’t they work for everyone?

Those of you who take supplements know how wonderful they are. It is well documented that our food is deficient, even thought the Australian Government recently passed legislation preventing us from advertising this fact.

Personally, I have seen so many people return to good health after using nutritional supplements that I have no doubt of their effectiveness. Many great companies produce outstanding products and most of you reading this article know this from personal experience.

What Stops Supplements Working?

One wonders if there isn’t a secret “X” factor in some people, which prevents supplements from doing their job. Well, there is.

Most of the supplement companies talk about our environment. They talk about food deficient in vitamins and minerals, and toxins in the air we breathe, the water we drink, and the food we eat. In my opinion, all this is true based on available scientific research. Just about every supplement company talks about the 7,000 new chemicals in use and the fact that only 7% have been tested for safety.

First Defense Detoxification

Now, what about those toxins? We are told that antioxidants cleanse the body of free radicals. Providing large quantities of vitamins and minerals allows the body to cleanse. Use of colon cleanses and fiber products allows cleansing of the body.

When you look into the mainstream, their solution is to clean up the environment and wait for the levels to drop. The medical system offers some rather dangerous chelating agents. Some of these require vitamin injections because they deprive the body of so many nutrients.

Your supplement company probably educated you that our bodies are composed of some 60 trillion cells. They will tell you that good health begins at the cellular level and healthy cells make healthy bodies. They may even tell you that cell receptors communicate cell needs and allow vital nutrients to be absorbed through the cell walls. The theory once again is that if you flood the body with good nutrition, these nutrients attach themselves to the cell receptors, preventing invasion by toxins and heavy metals.

What if the toxins were there before you started taking the supplements?

Now here is the challenge. This is a secondary effect. None of these supplements munches up the heavy metals and removes them from your body. It is a bit like masking symptoms with drugs. If your body has an excess of heavy metals or toxins, nutritional supplements will to some extent “mask” the symptoms and you will feel well. They will inefficiently reduce the toxins present. This doesn’t mean that all the toxins have gone away. Because toxins are foreign to our human anatomy, we simply don’t have the mechanisms to efficiently eliminate them, although many will say we do.

Imagine for a moment, there is a way to directly remove toxins and heavy metals from your body. Then your nutritional supplements can do their work, building a strong, resilient body and provide the support they were intended to. No longer would you be using added nutrition to compensate for toxins in your body. Makes sense, doesn’t it?

Hair analysis results prove the point.

Recently, I came across a new technology that fills this gap. Laboratory tests show a definite reduction of heavy metals and toxins after just a few weeks taking the product. Better still, the reports back up the idea that more vitamins and minerals are available after reducing toxin levels.

Here are my personal results.

First, the vital nutritional elements.


Element    		July 2006 January 2007 % Change
Calcium (Ca) 43 27

-37%
Magnesium (Mg) 8.1 4.2

-48%
Phosphorus  (P)    12 14

17%
Zinc  (Zn) 16 13

-19%
Selenium (Se) 0.07 0.06

-14%
Sodium (NA) 12 21

75%
Iron (Fe) 0.4 0.6

50%
Copper 1.0 1.4

40%

 

These results demonstrate all nutritional levels tested are in the normal range after 6 months on Activated Liquid Zeolite, proving that this product does not sap your body of nutrients. This is very important. In fact it shows that elements such as iron and Copper, which were low on the scale improved and toxic and nutritional ratios normalised.

Now for the toxins and heavy metals

 

Element    July 2006 January 2007 Percentage Change
Arsenic 0.10 0.006 40%
Cadmium 0.008 0.004 50%
Aluminium 0.4 0.3 25%
Barium 0.61 0.23 62%
Vanadium 0.008 0.004 50%
Strontium 0.23 0.07 70%

 

This is clear evidence that reducing toxic load on the body does allow better take up from vitamins and minerals! So what did I do to remove all those toxins from my body?

You Can Have These Results Or Better

Well there is a new technology which safely removes heavy metals from the body. At first I ignored it, but then I started hearing of some great health results, so I investigated further.

If this makes sense to you, you might consider a one month detox program. For most people, this will remove the majority of toxins in your body. The product uses a liquid Zeolite, a volcanic mineral, which captures toxins from the cells and passes them safely out of the body in the urine.

Conclusion.

  • Toxins and heavy metals inhibit take up of vital nutrients from food and supplements.
  • These toxins damage our body and can lead to disease.
  • You can find out whether you have toxins or heavy metals in your body by laboratory tests.
  • Activated Liquid Zeolite removes heavy metals from the cells and allow your supplements to work at optimum levels.

 

The result is you need less supplements for a superior result.

Eat Chicken – Get Arsenic Poisoning

November 19, 2009 by

I always thought the main source of Arsenic Poisoning was from Treated Pine furniture and patios. It seems I was wrong. Research has come to light that chickens contain high levels of Arsenic.

Arsenic is a deadly poison. You simply don’t want it in your body. It leaves to breakdown of your brain, and eventually death!

Arsenic Can Cause Serious Damage or Even Death

Symptoms of arsenic poisoning begin with headaches, confusion and drowsiness. As the poisoning develops, convulsions and changes in fingernail pigmentation may occur. When the poisoning becomes acute, symptoms may include diarrhea, vomiting, blood in the urine, cramping muscles, hair loss, stomach pain, and more convulsions. The organs of the body that are usually affected by arsenic poisoning are the lungs, skin, kidneys, and liver. The final result of arsenic poisoning is coma or death.

According to Wikipedia, “Arsenic
poisoning kills by allosteric inhibition of essential metabolic enzymes, leading to death from multi-system organ failure. It primarily inhibits enzymes that require lipoic acid as a cofactor, such as pyruvate and alpha-ketoglutarate dehydrogenase. Because of this, substrates before the dehydrogenase steps accumulate, such as pyruvate (and lactate). It particularly affects the brain, causing neurological disturbances and death”.

So What of Chickens?

The Organic Consumers Association in the US published the following information on a study of chickens.

“Minneapolis Brand name chicken products sold in American supermarkets and fast food restaurants are widely contaminated with arsenic, according to independent test results released today by the Institute for Agriculture and Trade Policy (IATP).

Testing of 155 samples from uncooked supermarket chicken products found 55 percent carried detectable arsenic. Arsenic was more than twice as prevalent in conventional brands of supermarket chicken as in certified organic and other ³premium² brands. All 90 fast food chicken products tested by IATP also contained detectable arsenic. The full report can be read at: www.iatp.org.

Arsenic in chicken meat appears closely linked to the decades-old practice of intentionally and routinely putting arsenic into chicken feed. At least 70 percent of U.S. broiler chickens have been fed arsenic, according to estimates.

³Adding arsenic to chicken feed is a needless and ultimately avoidable practice that only exposes more people to more of this ancient poison,² said Dr. David Wallinga, a physician, author of Playing Chicken: Avoiding Arsenic in Your Meat, and director of IATP¹s Food and Health program”.

Ref: Consumers Beware: Dangerous Levels of Arsenic Found in Non-Organic Chicken, Institute for Agriculture & Trade Policy, 2006

Who Died From Arsenic Poisoning?

Famous people who died from this were Napoleon and George II of England. Our most famous Australian Horse, Phar Lap was killed in the US using Arsenic.

What You Can do To Prevent this

There is good news in all of this. I can’t guarantee that you won’t be exposed to Arsenic or other Heavy Metals in the food you eat. Personally we eat little chicken and then only organic because we know some of the many dangers. Recently a study was published proving that our Activated Liquid Zeolite safely removes Arsenic and other Heavy Metals from the body so we don’t have to suffer any of these things. I take it daily and will until there is something better.

For Arsenic, the recommended medical treatment causes hypertension and other challenges. This is always the problem with medication. The cure can often be more dangerous than the disease. Aren’t we lucky that the Zeolite study shows no disruption to their body process while removing dangerous heavy metals!

So what are you waiting for! Detoxing with Activated Liquid Zeolite is like insurance against the major enemy of human health, our toxic environment. A maintenance portion of Activated Liquid Zeolite costs around $1.50 a day per person and is very affordable. Of course, you may need more to counter the build up of toxins in your body.

 John Gaydon has been researching Natural Health for over 25 years. Recently he came across a revolutionary new detox product which removes heavy metals and other toxins safely.

Does Your Child Own This Toy?

October 25, 2009 by

By Angie Smith
We all know about the recent publicity that toys imported from China have warranted…and it’s not good PR. The word this time though, is asbestos, not lead, found in a toy that was relatively popular this past holiday season: a forensic-type kit modeled after the popular TV series, “CSI: Crime Scene Investigators”.

Looks like someone didn’t do their homework. High levels of asbestos were found in the fingerprint dust that comes with the kit.

Here is an excerpt from a news article from www.ewg.org (the environmental working group):

“The tests were commissioned by the Asbestos Disease Awareness Organization (ADAO), which last month announced the results of it’s exhaustive 18-month scientific study testing hundreds of consumer products for deadly cancer-causing asbestos fibers. The findings were extremely troubling. One product, the popular children’s toy – Planet Toys CSI: Crime Scene Investigation™ Fingerprint Examination Kits– had high levels of asbestos in some samples of the fingerprint dust children put directly on their fingers and likely breathe into their lungs when the dust goes airborne. Children are directed to blow the asbestos contaminated dust to reveal the fingerprints.

“Major retailers stepped in when the federal government failed to act. They should be congratulated. Their actions will protect an untold number of children from the very real danger of asbestos-caused cancer later in life,” said Richard Wiles, Executive Director of Environmental Working Group. “Today’s action would not have been possible, without the courage of ADAO and Senator Murray in confronting the ongoing dangers posed by asbestos,” Wiles added.

“Given the grave health risks associated with asbestos exposure, ADAO acknowledges Planet Toys voluntarily issued a ‘stop sale’ this morning,” said Linda Reinstein, ADAO Executive Director and Co-Founder. “Once asbestos is inhaled or swallowed, the damage is irreversible. Prevention is the only cure.”

Particularly troubling about this toy is that children are directed to blow the asbestos contaminated powder after dusting for fingerprints, which makes it much more likely that children playing with this toy would actually inhale potentially lethal asbestos fibers. Any amount of asbestos fiber in a children’s toy, particularly in a powder that is certain to be inhaled, is unacceptable and unnecessary.

The type of asbestos detected in these kits, tremolite, is one the most lethal forms of asbestos, and a single day’s exposure is sufficient to cause lung cancer later in life.

Earlier this year Senator Murray’s bill to ban asbestos passed the Senate unanimously. Under the Murray bill the levels of asbestos found in this toy would have made this product illegal in the U.S.”

Folks, asbestos is a notorious toxin, in the proper (or improper, however you want to look at it) environment. You or your child would need a safe, complete detox after coming into contact with this known carcinogen. See my other articles for information on how liquid zeolite can do this!

“Lead” Astray: My Toddler Was Toxic

October 25, 2009 by 2 Comments

By Angie Smith

I gave birth to a beautiful baby boy, Marshall, in 1996.

My baby was perfect…well, at least to me he was! He talked very early. He walked very early. Marshall held fairly reasonable conversations by 18 months. I crowed at his every accomplishment, and I felt like he was an extension of my soul toddling around. Surely he was the smartest kid in the world!

 

Almost three years later, I gave birth to a second (surprise!) son, Michael, who was just as wonderful and beautiful. He started out on the fast track developmentally. But after about one year of age, I began to notice slight differences in his development. He didn’t talk. He didn’t show signs of walking, though he still managed to scoot or roll wherever he wanted to go. He was prone to ear infections, skin infections, and developed terrible allergies and eczema. While Mikey eventually talked in very short sentences at around age two, I knew something was, well, just not right. We didn’t bond as easily, though I was really the only person he would have anything to do with. Dropping him off at the sitter’s was a nightmare. It was as if he was trying to tell us something, but we didn’t know what. It was as if he was in another world. Mikey’s uncle nicknamed him “The Tank”, or “Sherman”, due to his habit of pushing his way over or through anything in his path. He was, ahem, rather destructive and demanding and inconsolable.

All this while my four-year-old was beginning to recognize words and write.

At first I chalked this up to being “the second baby syndrome”. Any mother of more than two children knows what I’m talking about!

When Mikey was nearly two, I took my children to be screened for lead poisoning.

My youngest son showed higher-than-normal amounts of lead, “but not life-threatening”, they told me. And the levels were “not enough to treat him…just find the source and clean it up”. How naive I was.

At the time, we lived in a home that was built in the 1920s and had been remodeled on several occasions. It had also been painted a number of times since the late 1970s when lead was first banned in paint, so at first I was skeptical that the lead came from the paint indoors, which was not peeling anywhere (I found later this really doesn’t matter).

But the paint and siding on the exterior of the home was older, and was starting to decay and chip off around the bottom. I began to check outside near their play area. Upon close inspection, I discovered innumerable tiny white chips of old paint in the dirt and sandbox where my sons played. Decades of rain and exposure to the elements had no doubt washed away old paint into the dirt all around our home.

No doubt, this was the main source of my son’s “minor” lead problem. And he ate everything, apparently including dirt. On several occasions, I fished more than one less-than-savory thing from Mikey’s little mouth.

Immediately, I moved my sons’ play equipment across the driveway. A short time later, we moved into a brand new home.

My little son blossomed. It was as if someone had flipped a switch. Then three years old, he began speaking clearly, potty-trained within days, and surprised us all with something new every day. He wasn’t sick again for months. He formed friendships at preschool, and, more importantly, the child/parent bond began to strengthen.

Knowing now what I didn’t know then, my son was toxic. My children’s pediatrician was schooled in traditional medicine, though I will give her kudos for some of her non-standard recommendations, and she often snubbed by-the-book parenting. But she never recommended any kind of detox treatment for my son, nor did the local health department. 

Today, with reports of lead found in commercial toys, makeup, and still leaching out of older homes, there are probably countless children who are being poisoned by so-called “minor” levels of lead.

A breakthrough in the removal of heavy metals from the body occurred about three years ago. It didn’t arrive in time for my son and his situation, but it could help someone you know.

Have you ever heard of zeolite? It’s recently been patented and is produced in a liquid form. It’s extremely effective in removing heavy metals from the human body, and is completely safe.

Luckily, I’m not so naive anymore when it comes to heavy metal toxicity. I know that even a little lead is detrimental. I attribute a number of my son’s toddlerhood troubles to the lead problem and living in a toxic, old house.

Happily, my youngest son shows no signs of having been poisoned. He’s now in the second grade and is a straight-A student. He plays soccer and baseball, and says that when he grows up, he’s going to be a professional football player AND a scientist that designs robots. Now those are some ambitions!

Are your children walking chemistry labs? I hope not. My goal is to inform as many parents and grandparents as possible about the dangers of heavy metals (which, by the way, also come from vaccines—that’s another article though) and how to remove them with liquid zeolite.

Zeolite shows so much promise in so many areas. I only wish we had known about it then. Now here’s your chance to get educated.

Gulf War Syndrome: A Valid Disease, A Treatable Disease

October 25, 2009 by Leave a Comment

By Angie Smith

Sleep disturbances, body aches, memory loss, and mysterious aches and pains. No, that’s not describing my 85-year-old grandmother’s medical chart. Those are just some of the symptoms Gulf War Syndrome, a real and treatable (we’ll get to that in a moment) disease.

 

Gulf War (and to an extent, more recent veterans) are battling a war they thought they left behind. There are thousands of men and women in their 30s and 40s — the primes of their lives — fighting a disease that the VA and the government say they probably don’t have.

So, the “official” verdict is still out on Gulf War Syndrome, a name coined to describe the mesh of symptoms from which ex-soldiers suffer. But tap into the countless blogs and veteran forums out there and one will likely come to the conclusion that most of our veterans are experiencing painful, life-altering changes that that began soon after they returned home.

While no one would argue that a soldier of war has the most traumatizing occupation on Earth, stress and anxiety alone don’t seem to explain away the disease and illness being reported among Gulf War Veterans.

The characteristic symptoms of Gulf War Syndrome include aching muscles, irritability, thick saliva, weight loss, skin rashes, and memory loss, along with chronic fevers, labored breathing, and headaches. Additionally, an excess of birth defects and stillbirths among children of soldiers have been recorded as well as cases of motor neuron disease and leukemia.

They Were Poisoned…

Veterans of the first Gulf War were exposed to environmental toxins (such as oil fires), chemical and biological weapons, low-level uranium, an immune reaction to a drug administered to protect against attacks of soman (a nerve gas), dust, and even the immunizations (specifically, the anthrax vaccine and polio booster) given to the troops prior to deployment.

As if the above factors aren’t a noxious enough cocktail in and of themselves, detections of sarin, a potentially fatal nerve gas; tabun, a neuroparalytic toxic agent; and sulfur mustard gas were reported in the air during the period of January 19-21, 1991.

Detox Now!

The very likely solution is detoxification; i.e., removing the contamination. These troops’ bodies are literally walking toxic waste containers! Detoxing seems simple enough, but how? 

Liquid zeolite has been proven to safely remove toxins and chemicals from the body.  

It’s a unique mineral that’s formed when volcanic lava flows into ocean water. Zeolite has been used in homeopathic medicine for hundreds of years. 

The zeolite structure, which is honeycomb-shaped, traps toxins and removes them safely from the body. 

If the general public can benefit from detoxification with liquid zeolite, how much more could a Gulf War vet, who was exposed to toxin levels hundreds, or even thousands of times greater than that of a civilian?

Soldiers and their loved ones haven’t been getting the right answers, so it’s been left up to them to look for a solution. The armed forces and government both deny there’s an issue simply because Gulf War Syndrome doesn’t fit the medical establishment’s traditional definition of a “disease”.

Because of this rejection, veterans and their loved ones are looking into alternative treatments (which is usually a good thing anyhow!). Many out there have found relief through detoxification with liquid zeolite. Let me help you!

‘Autism Speaks’??? It’s Practically Screaming!

October 25, 2009 by 1 Comment

By Angie Smith

Have you noticed those Ad Council announcements on TV lately…the ones about autism? While many facets of the campaign seem disconcerting (we’ll get to that in a moment), its numbers are accurate: one child out of every 166 is now diagnosed with autism, up from 1 in 10,000 just over a decade ago.

 

With stats like that hitting us so hard, even parents with normal, healthy children (like myself) wonder what this unprecedented surge in cases means, and why it is happening.

However, parents of autistic children started asking tough questions years ago.

A visit to the Centers for Disease Control’s website to look for answers to those tough questions doesn’t yield much help.

Moreover, the site’s FAQ page for autism seems to dodge and duck those questions instead of answering them. What is unsettling is that the CDC appears wishy-washy on the subject of increasing cases, and practically denies that the surge in autism cases has anything at all to do with vaccines.

And who is collaborating with the Ad Council on the above-mentioned PSA project, called “Autism Speaks”? Why, it’s none other than their big-brother-in-government, the CDC.

How ironic, given the proverbial duct tape that seems to being placed over the mouths of the concerned.

Yates’ Story

I picked up a local paper, The Jackson Sun, a couple of Sundays ago, and read about the Hazelhurst family. The oldest of the couples’ two children, seven-year-old Yates, was diagnosed with autism shortly after his first birthday.

The Hazlehursts have filed a lawsuit, alleging that the vaccinations Yates received after his first year of life caused a gastrointestinal condition and his autism, according to the Sun. The U.S. Court of Federal Claims in Charlotte, N.C. agreed to hear the family’s claim, which was also filed on behalf of 5000 other families.

The Hazelhursts were fortunate that Yates’ father, Rolf (who is an attorney), documented the first year of Yates’ life with new-dad fervor. The ”proud papa” videos made excellent fodder for the family’s case. That video documentation made the Hazelhursts the ideal to family to represent the other plaintiffs in the lawsuit.

Videos of Yates’ infancy show a healthy, brighter-than-average baby. He made eye contact. He said several words like ”please” and “thank you” before age one, and was videoed jabbering into a pretend phone while riding in the back of his cousins’ toy car.

Yates changed drastically, however, immediately after receiving the MMR, Hib, Hepatitis B and Prevnar vaccination in February 2001.

His mother, Angela, says in the Sun interview, “”Three days past his vaccine, at his birthday, he’s dazed,” Angela said. “Twelve days after, he had a red, bumpy rash. We didn’t recognize it as a reaction. A month after that, in the bathtub, I’m saying, ‘Yates, Yates’ and he won’t look at us anymore.”

Yates was diagnosed with autism.

On the flip-side, Angela Hazelhurst, Yates’ mom, said she wanted to clarify her stance on vaccines: ”I’m not a mom who’s against all vaccinations….but the rise in autism cases has parents worried about what to do,” she said.

Do Our Kids Have Heavy-Metal Poisoning? Is It Vaccines? 

According to the Florida-based watchdog group K.N.O.W. Vaccines, the mercury-containing MMR was added to the vaccine schedule in the late ’70s. In 1988, the mercury-containing HIB vaccine was added. Mercury-containing Hepatitis B for newborns was added in the early 1990s. Children receive all these vaccines, plus mercury-containing DTP, in three to four doses during the first year and a half of their fragile lives, and the vaccines are usually administered simultaneously (multiple mercury-containing vaccines on the same day).

It makes one wonder, at what point does a child’s immunity reach a saturation point for toxic chemicals in the body? The body will try to process mercury. When it can’t get rid of the excess, it travels to the brain where it clings to tissue in the cerebellum (the part of the brain affecting movement and balance), and in other parts of the brain that control emotional processing and the sorting and storage of information.

The vaccine/autism theory gains even more credence when the disease characteristics for both autism and mercury poisoning are compared: sound and touch-sensitivity, inability or difficulty understanding abstract ideas and symbols, clumsiness, rocking back and forth, speech and hearing problems, self-injury, social isolation, gastrointestinal problems…you get the idea.

Removing The Mercury, Reversing Autism?

Many doctors who treat autistic children seem to be aware of the mercury/heavy metal issue in relation to the disease. This is why chelators, substances that remove heavy metals, have become a popular alternative treatment; albeit one that is gaining wide-stream acceptance as well.

Recently, a different kind of chelator was patented, called liquid zeolite. A study is currently being conducted using the liquid mineral, and remarkable anecdotal results have been recorded.

Zeolites could be called “super-chelators”, in that they are extremely efficient in removing heavy metals from the body. Zeolite is formed when lava meets ocean water, and it has been used in Asia for hundreds of years as a treatment for overall good health. The unique honey-comb shape of the mineral traps toxins and other wastes from the body and safely removes them, without stripping the body of vital nutrients and minerals.

Lucas’ Story

In one testimonial, available to read online, a little boy named Lucas recovers completely from autism.

Lucas’ family had spent $300,000 over three years, and he improved somewhat, having progressed from extremely severe autism to mild autism. But after seven weeks on liquid zeolite at 45 drops per day (5 drops, 9 times per day), combined with several complementary treatments, most of Lucas’s autism symptoms just vanished. (The full report can be read at zeolitesource dot com.)

Lucas’ pediatrician and the general traditional medical establishment had ignored the fact that he had over six times the toxic level of mercury in his system. And that same pediatrician called Lucas’ parents “bleeping morons” for implying that his toxicity levels had any connection to his autism.

At last report, Lucas was a normal, healthy little boy with no signs of autism.

Why Isn’t More Being Done?

The name, by the way, of the CDC’s “autism awareness” program is “Learn The Signs; Act Early”. What kind of lame, contrite slogan is that? Any parent with more than noodles for brains would know when something is wrong with their child, and they’d act upon it immediately. The CDC’s program almost seems to imply that citizens need the government to tell us what is happening to our kids, and not to worry because they’re doing something about it.

As long as the CDC refuses to see the link between autism and vaccines, sugar-coated public service announcements will do no good.

Hey Mom! Give Me Some Lead While I String These Lights!

October 25, 2009 by Leave a Comment

By Angie Smith

This morning on tv, I heard a warning about lead in a product that we all usually come in contact with this time of the year, especially children.

 

“Not again,” I thought.

Lead in makeup, then toys, now this? For years, it seemed all we parents had to worry with was keeping our tots from eating old paint chips. (Coincidentally, I had a child to do this.)

As it turns out, one of the very things that brings holiday cheer to families all over the world could be very dangerous for the littlest ones.

China And Lead…

At least three different brands of holiday lights, it’s been announced recently, have been tested and extremely high levels of lead were discovered. Consumers are being warned not to let their children handle them due to lead poisoning potential (lead is used in the manufacturing process).

I write this out of concern on a personal level; I had a lead poisoning issue with one of my boys (see “Lead Astray” in this blog).

And in case you didn’t know, the toys that have recently been recalled because of lead content aren’t dime-store off-brands, they were made by big-name companies like Mattel, who, like many toy manufacturers, has many of their products made in China.

Now where are the majority of our holiday lights made?

I checked mine, and they all (three different brands) were made in China.

At least 80% of most popular toys are made there as well.

Notice a trend here?

I don’t want to get into politics or possible trade embargoes here, but something must be done, since no one realistically sees the banning of Chinese imports. However, they should be required to meet U.S. standards; quite a no-brainer there.

Brand Names Don’t Mean Squat  

In the meantime, we all need to realize that just because we buy something from a major retailer does not guarantee its safety.

We’re all toxic, to a degree. After doing extensive research and interviews, I’ve come to the conclusion that any random citizen of a developed country could have toxicity tests performed and would then be extremely startled at the results, especially with lead and mercury. We are exposed to household chemicals, pesticides, and other toxins our entire lives. Our children are no different; they’re just as toxic as the rest of the population.

What is especially frightening is that children cannot handle nearly the amount of lead exposure that an adult can.

There is a safe way to improve overall general health and safely remove toxins, including lead, all at the same time.

Get The Lead Out!

A mineral called liquid zeolite has recently been brought to the world’s attention and it is highly recommended by many physicians and scientists. It can safely remove lead and other toxins even from a child’s body.

National Geographic: ‘Average Joe’ Is Very Toxic

October 25, 2009 by Leave a Comment

Did you know you are a walking toxic storage facility? is a reality, and mainstream science and medicine  is becoming more keenly aware of the problem. Recently, National Geographic featured an article on just how poisoned we really are.  

 

Beginning at birth, our bodies start storing trace amounts of toxins and other chemicals, first from breast milk, and even leaching from plastic bottles into infant formula. We then graduate to becoming storehouses for heavy metals, such as mercury and lead, and for other toxins, such as those found in household cleaners, and even in the food we eat and the air we breathe.

But  don’t take my word for it: recently, an article appeared in National Geographic called “Chemicals Within Us” that shoudl wake up all the skeptics out there.

Regular Dude, Major Problems

As told in the story, author David Ewing Duncan has expensive toxicity tests performed as an experiment for his article. Here’s an portion:

“…Last fall I had myself tested for 320 chemicals I might have picked up from food, drink, the air I breathe, and the products that touch my skin—my own secret stash of compounds acquired by merely living. It includes older chemicals that I might have been exposed to decades ago, such as DDT and PCBs; pollutants like lead, mercury, and dioxins; newer pesticides and plastic ingredients; and the near-miraculous compounds that lurk just beneath the surface of modern life, making shampoos fragrant, pans nonstick, and fabrics water-resistant and fire-safe.
The tests are too expensive for most individuals—National Geographic paid for mine, which would normally cost around $15,000—and only a few labs have the technical expertise to detect the trace amounts involved. I ran the tests to learn what substances build up in a typical American over a lifetime, and where they might come from. I was also searching for a way to think about risks, benefits, and uncertainty—the complex trade-offs embodied in the chemical “body burden” that swirls around inside all of us.
Now I’m learning more than I really want to know…” (From the article “Chemicals Within Us”) 

Far-fetched? Not at all. And it doesn’t stop there. A chemist told Duncan that he didn’t want to make him “nervous”, but that he should know about extremely dangerous levels of PBPEs (a chemical found in flame-retardant items) in his system. Other toxins found in the author’s body included mercury, PFAs (found in banned stain repellents), DDT (a pesticide banned in the 1960s), bisphenol A, phthalates, and more; all of which can and do contribute to physical and neurological illnesses.

So Why Is He Toxic?

Ewing began a quest to find out where he might have picked up so many toxins. Guess what? He doesn’t come up with anything really extraordinary; he’s lived and worked and traveled no differently than millions of other Americans.

In all likelihood, we’re just as poisoned as he is. Most can’t afford $15,000 in tests, so what to do?

One answer, and probably the most obvious, is to search for a way to detox. We all know the toxins are there — so the solution is to get rid of them! But is it necessary to to put one’s self through traditional (and most likely, less effective) cleansing processes? No. According to recent studies,there is a way to cleanse your body without blowing out bits of intestine!

It is called liquid zeolite, and it is could be the health breakthrough for which humankind has waited aeons. 

Zeolite has been here since the earth’s formation–lurking mysteriously in the oceans surrounding volcanic activity–and consisting of the four major elements: earth, air, water, and fire. Some healers in Asia have used it in its raw form for overall good health for hundreds of years. Only recently has liquid zeolite gone mainstream.

Science doesn’t doubt the unique structure and properties of zeolite. In its liquified form, it acts as a chelator. The actual Zeolite molecule looks like a honeycomb. Its ions are negatively charged, which attracts the positively charged toxins, heavy metals, allergens, and other waste into the structure like a magnet. After the positively-charged elements bond with the zeolite, they are flushed out of the system naturally with no harmful side effects.

We’re Living Longer, But Getting Sicker…

While our life spans grow longer with each passing decade, what we often don’t realize is that the cancer rate is rising, heart disease is more common at an earlier age, and the rates of autism and other neurological diseases are skyrocketing. Our “chemical” exposures are rising too. The evidence seems clear: we live in a poisonous world and it is wreaking havoc on our health.

Ewing and National Geographic were both onto something when they took on the project for his article. 

In conclusion, we live in a world that is not so pristine as it once was. While the proof is unsettling, it is a relief to know that this crisis has a potential resolution in a detox with liquid zeolite.
