Most importantly, he gives us some ideas about how to counter this globalist agenda.</div>  <div>  <!--BLOG_SUMMARY_END--></div>  <div class="paragraph">It&rsquo;s no secret that the plan is ultimate control over people&rsquo;s lives as well as depopulation.<br />&nbsp;<br />One key method to accomplish this goal is to gather personal data for a centralized database in every conceivable way&mdash;through smartwatches, wearables, interactive health monitoring devices, health passports, internet activities, and more.<br />&nbsp;<br />Another tactic is to instill fear and spread official government-backed misinformation at every opportunity. We are fed lies about the necessity of big pharma in our lives. At the same time, vaccine injury and deterioration of health in babies and children are rising rapidly at epidemic levels, while fertility rates drop dramatically, and illness and premature death continue to skyrocket. Make no mistake&mdash;our health is under direct assault.<br />&nbsp;&nbsp;<br />In Dr. Yeadon&rsquo;s history-making video (the last he says he will make), he pleads with us not to comply with digital ID, nor to the demands of a corrupt system that has been designed to destroy us.<br /><br /></div>  <div><div class="wsite-image wsite-image-border-none " style="padding-top:10px;padding-bottom:10px;margin-left:0;margin-right:0;text-align:center"> <a> <img src="https://www.grandeprairiewapf.org/uploads/9/9/3/0/99306456/mike-yeadon_orig.jpg" alt="Picture" style="width:auto;max-width:100%" /> </a> <div style="display:block;font-size:90%"></div> </div></div>  <div class="paragraph"><br />Andrew Kaufman, an American MD, also <a href="https://www.facebook.com/photo/?fbid=1051346343800469&amp;set=a.290944466507331" target="_blank">offers some sound advice </a>on how to avoid this medical tyranny&mdash;advice that we can apply here in Canada.<br />&nbsp;&nbsp;<br /><em>&ldquo;All signs point to a tech takeover, and yes, your medical records are now for sale.<br />&nbsp;<br />The central database being developed under Trump, with the help of Palantir, is paving the way for your personal health information to be used against you.<br />&nbsp;&nbsp;<br />Have high blood pressure?

We must.<br />&nbsp;<br />The extent of the lies is simply unconscionable, and the consequences of obeying fraudulent health orders are absolutely devastating to health, well-being, and our very way of life.<br />&nbsp;<br />There is hope that the fa&ccedil;ade is beginning to crack now, even at a high judicial level, as evidenced by the recent New York Supreme Court ruling that mandates were &ldquo;arbitrary and capricious&rdquo; and that vaccination does not prevent transmission. Over 1,700 unvaccinated workers have been reinstated with back pay due to this ruling.<font color="#da4444" size="2">3</font><br />&nbsp;<br />Please do your part first by watching or listening to Dr. Yeadon&rsquo;s video, and by standing firm in refusing to comply with measures and mandates that are unjustifiable and will only harm us and the generations that will follow.<br />&nbsp;<br />Say NO to medical tyranny.<br /><br /><strong><font size="4">So few of them, so many of us.</font></strong><br /><br /></div>  <div class="paragraph">______________________________________<br /><font size="2">References:</font><ol><li><font size="2">https://rumble.com/v6vo48r-final-warning-dr-mike-yeadon-interview-4k-oracle-films.html&nbsp;</font></li><li><font size="2">https://ow.ly/ye9y50WlF0X</font></li><li><font size="2">https://amg-news.com/mandate-collapse-over-1700-unvaccinated-workers-reinstated-in-new-york-court-confirms-vaccine-mandates-were-illegal-backpay-ordered/</font> &nbsp;<br></li></ol></div>  <div><div style="height: 20px; overflow: hidden; width: 100%;"></div> <hr class="styled-hr" style="width:100%;"></hr> <div style="height: 20px; overflow: hidden; width: 100%;"></div></div>  <div class="paragraph"><strong><font size="3">Want to Learn More About WAPF?</font></strong><br /><br /><span>The Weston A.

During the discussion, she used the phrase, &ldquo;The Great Poisoning,&rdquo; as she spoke about the globalist agenda that is impacting our lives in ways we scarcely could have imagined just a few years ago. I haven&rsquo;t heard a better way of stating what humanity is facing today.<br />&nbsp;<br />We are being poisoned as never before on all fronts&mdash;toxic chemicals are intentionally and unnecessarily added to our water, land, food, medicines, lotions, and so-called health products, even poisons falling from our skies, along with radiation poisoning from microwaves and wireless 5G. On top of all that, unreasonable health measures and financial hardships create significant stress and strain our well-being. It&rsquo;s not an overstatement to say that we live in a toxic soup.<br></div>  <div class="wsite-spacer" style="height:17px;"></div>  <div class="paragraph"><strong>How Can We Possibly Protect Ourselves and Our Families from THE GREAT POISONING?</strong><br></div>  <div>  <!--BLOG_SUMMARY_END--></div>  <div class="wsite-spacer" style="height:10px;"></div>  <span class='imgPusher' style='float:left;height:0px'></span><span style='display: table;width:248px;position:relative;float:left;max-width:100%;;clear:left;margin-top:0px;*margin-top:0px'><a><img src="https://www.grandeprairiewapf.org/uploads/9/9/3/0/99306456/published/dr-price.png?1750137300" style="margin-top: 5px; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 10px; border-width:1px;padding:3px; max-width:100%" alt="Picture" class="galleryImageBorder wsite-image" /></a><span style="display: table-caption; caption-side: bottom; font-size: 90%; margin-top: -10px; margin-bottom: 10px; text-align: center;" class="wsite-caption"></span></span> <div class="paragraph" style="display:block;">Now, more than ever, as we experience The Great Poisoning, we need the ancestral wisdom offered by the Weston A. Price Foundation (<a href="https://www.westonaprice.org" target="_blank">WAPF</a>).<br />&nbsp;<br />As a WAPF Chapter Leader on Vancouver Island, it&rsquo;s my pleasure to tell you a little bit about the man behind the educational organization named in his honour.<br />&nbsp;<br />Many of us in real food circles who support and advocate for local farmers have come across Dr. Price's seminal book, <em>Nutrition and Physical Degeneration</em>, first published in 1939. Dr. Price&rsquo;s closing words in the book speak absolute volumes: &ldquo;Life in all its fullness is Mother Nature obeyed.&rdquo;<br />&nbsp;<br />However, beyond these circles, most Canadians are unfamiliar with Dr. Price. Let&rsquo;s get to know him a little.<font size="2"><strong>&nbsp;(1)</strong></font></div> <hr style="width:100%;clear:both;visibility:hidden;"></hr>  <div class="wsite-spacer" style="height:10px;"></div>  <div class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;"><ul><li>Weston Andrew Valleau Price, the ninth child in a family of 12, grew up on a farm in Newburg, Ontario, Canada. This backwoods Canadian family produced an inventor, a medical doctor, two dentists, a Methodist minister, and a resourceful farmer son.<font size="2"><strong>&nbsp;(2)&nbsp;</strong></font>&nbsp;&nbsp;<br></li><li>Price&rsquo;s nephew, Willard DeMille Price (son of Albert, his inventor brother), was a famous writer, explorer and traveler whose reports were often featured in the National Geographic magazine.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</li><li>Price became interested in diet as a prime factor in dental decay after he was stricken with typhoid fever in 1893. At the time, he was practicing dentistry in Grand Forks, North Dakota. His older brother Albert nursed him back to health, but during his illness, Weston&rsquo;s teeth had decayed significantly. He went back to the family farm to convalesce, where not only did his health improve, but his dental deterioration was arrested. The following spring, he and his uncle, William Delmage, camped for an extended period in the backcountry of Canada, living on salmon, small game, and berries. Delmage was a man of great intuitive wisdom who understood the role of natural food sources in restoring and sustaining the body. The backwoods diet worked wonders for Weston Price.&nbsp;&nbsp;</li><li>Weston shared an interest in electricity with his brother Albert. He taught &ldquo;applied electricity and electro-therapeutics&rdquo; at Western Reserve University (now Case Western Reserve University) from 1897 to 1904. After he left the faculty in 1904, his subject matter was dropped from the curriculum.<font size="2"><strong>&nbsp;(3)&nbsp;</strong></font>&nbsp;&nbsp;<br></li><li>In 1899, Weston Price and his wife, Florence, built the Bon Echo Inn on the shores of Mazinaw Lake in southeastern Ontario. The remote site presented an incredible challenge, and building the 28-room inn was &ldquo;a feat which never could have been accomplished without the indomitable persistence of Dr. Price and his sublime indifference to the almost incredible difficulties that beset him at every turn,&rdquo; according to Merrill Denison, a later owner of the Inn. Dr. Price and his wife operated the Inn during the summers until they sold it in 1910. The site later became Bon Echo Provincial Park.<font size="2"><strong>&nbsp;(4)&nbsp;</strong></font>&nbsp;<br></li><li>After selling the Inn, Price established a dental practice in Cleveland, Ohio. At the height of his career, the practice included several dentists on the first floor and a laboratory on the second floor where Mr. Howdy, a chemist of German origin, performed analyses for fat-soluble activators in hundreds of samples of butter and other foods sent to Dr. Price from all over the world.&nbsp;</li><li>Dr. Price and his wife lost their only son, Donald, due to complications from an infected root canal that Price himself had put in. Price went on to write a 1,000-page tome on the issues surrounding systemic dental infections related to root canals.&nbsp; &nbsp;</li><li>Dr. Price was a devout Methodist who taught Sunday school at his neighborhood church. However, later in life, he expressed dismay over the fact that Christian missionaries were often the vector for introducing modernized foods to native populations.<strong><font size="2">&nbsp;(5)</font></strong></li></ul></div>  <div class="wsite-spacer" style="height:10px;"></div>  <div class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">After observing a substantial increase in dental caries, malformed jaw and facial features, and noting that these conditions were often accompanied by weakened resistance to disease and declining health in his patients, Dr. Price took an astonishing step. He closed his practice and, for over ten years in the 1920s and '30s, travelled the world to conduct research and find out what could be causing the degeneration he witnessed. Dr. Price conducted studies of 14 isolated groups of people in remote areas, spanning from the Swiss Alps to the Polynesian Islands, as well as from Alaska and Canada to Scotland and Africa. His research showed that in just one generation after switching from traditional foods to westernized, denatured foods, devastating health consequences followed.<font size="2"><strong>&nbsp;(6)</strong></font><br />&nbsp;<br />This is how WAPF, founded in 1999, describes the seminal work that Dr. Price accomplished as a nutrition pioneer in the early 1900s:<br></div>  <div class="wsite-spacer" style="height:11px;"></div>  <div class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;"><strong><em>&ldquo;Dr. Price's studies of isolated non-industrialized peoples established the parameters of human health and determined the optimum characteristics of human diets. Dr. Price&rsquo;s research demonstrated that humans achieve perfect physical form and perfect health generation after generation only when they consume nutrient-dense whole foods and the vital fat-soluble activators found exclusively in animal fats. Dr. Price is credited with discovering the &ldquo;X&rdquo; Factor, or Vitamin K2 as it is known today.&rdquo;</em></strong><br></div>  <div class="wsite-spacer" style="height:14px;"></div>  <div class="paragraph">I can't begin to express my gratitude for the fact that Dr. Price worked so diligently to record his research and the wisdom he garnered from our healthy ancestors. I am especially grateful that this information has been made freely available worldwide through the 25-year-old non-profit Weston A. Price Foundation.<br />&nbsp;<br />There isn&rsquo;t an organization that surpasses WAPF as the source for accurate information on nutrition and health, by:<br /></div>  <div class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;"><ul><li>Always aiming to provide the scientific validation of traditional foodways, including the importance of nourishing, nutrient-dense farm foods, safe and nutritious raw milk, and nurturing therapies that never harm&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</li><li>Advising how diet affects fertility, healthy babies, and children who can reach their full potential in growth, development and radiant health&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</li><li>Advocating for the support of local farmers and ranchers&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</li><li>Widely sharing the scientifically validated fact that contagion has never been proven&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</li></ul></div>  <div class="wsite-spacer" style="height:12px;"></div>  <div class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">A current WAPF initiative is to provide a strategy for livestock producers to consider that may protect them, their animals, and their livelihoods from bird flu inspections. More about that is available here: <a href="https://www.sookewapf.org/blog/attention-livestock-producers" target="_blank">www.sookewapf.org/blog/attention-livestock-producers</a><br />&nbsp;<br />Catherine Austin Fitts knows the value of WAPF. She has been a guest on the WAPF <a href="https://www.westonaprice.org/podcast" target="_blank">Wise Traditions Podcasts</a><font size="2"><strong>&nbsp;</strong><strong>(7)</strong></font> and she&rsquo;s a regular speaker at WAPF&rsquo;s annual Wise Traditions Conferences (www.wisetraditions.org).<br />&nbsp;<br />Sally Fallon Morell, WAPF&rsquo;s founding President, and Tom Cowan, MD, WAPF&rsquo;s founding Vice-President, co-authored the best-selling book, <em>The Truth About Contagion</em>. Both Sally and Tom have published numerous other best-selling books aimed at helping us achieve vibrant health at every stage of life, including for future generations.<br />&nbsp;<br />Thankfully, WAPF gives us the information and suggestions that can help families and protect our food supply.</div>  <div class="wsite-spacer" style="height:11px;"></div>  <div><div class="wsite-image wsite-image-border-none " style="padding-top:10px;padding-bottom:10px;margin-left:0;margin-right:0;text-align:center"> <a> <img src="https://www.grandeprairiewapf.org/uploads/9/9/3/0/99306456/suggestions_orig.jpg" alt="Picture" style="width:auto;max-width:100%" /> </a> <div style="display:block;font-size:90%"></div> </div></div>  <div class="wsite-spacer" style="height:10px;"></div>  <div class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">On a personal note, I&rsquo;m very happy to say that the wisdom shared by Dr. Price and WAPF about Wise Traditions foodways, toxin-free food production, and health protection has made a profound and positive difference in my family.</div>  <div class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">______________________________<br /><strong>References</strong><br /><font size="2">1.&nbsp; <a href="https://www.westonaprice.org/health-topics/abcs-of-nutrition/the-right-price" target="_blank">westonaprice.org/health-topics/abcs-of-nutrition/the-right-price</a><br />2.

But the burden of <u>demanding that proof of contagion be provided</u> belongs to every one of us at the grass roots level.&nbsp;&nbsp; Let's talk more about that a little later.</span><br /><br />Is there a major change in the air?&nbsp; As freedom defenders, we've collectively spent decades warning moms and dads about the risks of harm (and death) that come with vaccination.&nbsp; But more than this, countless numbers of our brothers and sisters in this movement now understand that proof of contagion simply does not exist.&nbsp; We may have the opportunity to get that fact out there widely as conflicts arise among freedom defenders and supporters.<br /><br />I think we're at the point where freedom groups with large followings, and leading individuals who wish to be seen as being fully informed, truthful and reliable, are going to have to welcome discussions about contagion, and openly share that news, or risk becoming irrelevant.&nbsp; Is this finally the time in history, when we will join together in loudly chorusing the fact that there is no proof of contagion?</div>  <div>  <!--BLOG_SUMMARY_END--></div>  <div class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">From an historical perspective, it's not really news that there isn't proof of contagion.&nbsp; Back in the early 1800s French researchers were commissioned to investigate the <a href="https://aldhissla.substack.com/p/the-infectious-myth-busted-is-plague" target="_blank">plague</a> in Egypt.&nbsp; Try as they may, they could never show that the illness could make well people sick, and they finally declared themselves to be 'anti-contagionists'.&nbsp; <span>I love that term, and I call myself that in honour of honest freedom defenders and truthful researchers, both past and present.</span><br /><br /></div>  <div class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">We're very fortunate today to have easy access to the facts of history along with current scientific studies shared tirelessly by Dr. Tom Cowan, Sally Fallon Morell, the Weston A.

<span>The burden of proof of contagion belongs to virologists.&nbsp; This remains true and we're still waiting for that proof - but don't hold your breath. </span><br /><br /><span><strong>But the burden of <u>demanding that proof of contagion be provided</u>&nbsp; belongs to every one of us at the grass roots level.</strong></span>&nbsp; What does that mean?&nbsp; The burden part, is that you, dear reader, as someone who deeply cares about freedom in our health choices, who wishes that children and future generations have their best chance at reaching their full potentials in radiant health, (or you likely wouldn't be reading this) <strong>must take action</strong>.&nbsp; You will soon realize that it's not a true burden.&nbsp; It's liberating.&nbsp; Many hands make light work.&nbsp; It means that we have a responsibility to unite in our demand for proof of contagion.&nbsp; It's long past time to put an end to coercion, mandates, and fear-mongering about the 'requirement' of vaccination.&nbsp;<br />&nbsp;<br></div>  <div class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">We must turn the tables on them by demanding that they show proof of contagion, in writing.&nbsp;

It began with the statement, "<span>I don't know a single leader or OG freedom fighter who was out protesting early 2020 - 2021 ... ."<br /><br />It left me wondering what's an OG?&nbsp; I've been involved with the freedom movement for a long time, and I've only heard this term now.<br /><br />Luckily, someone else on the thread didn't know either.&nbsp; The original poster explained that OG stands for "Original Gangsters" who became involved in the freedom movement during the alleged Covid pandemic.<br /><br />This resulted in me thinking about who were the first OG's in the vaccination freedom movement, which goes back for over 200 years.<br /><br />What follows is just a small sampling of the wide-awake objectors that predate our efforts by hundreds of years.&nbsp;

On the childhood schedule we&rsquo;ve gone from 5 vaccines in the 1950&rsquo;s to 72 doses of 18 vaccines before age 18, not including 20-35 doses of the Covid-19 vaccine.<br />&nbsp;<br /><strong>Could our strategy be wrong?</strong><br />&nbsp;<br />If over 200 years of doing the same thing hasn&rsquo;t worked by now, will it ever? We&rsquo;ve gotten into a groove where we constantly feed the vaccine narrative as if it were the key thing we need to know about in raising healthy children. It&rsquo;s like we&rsquo;re on a vaccine risk awareness bus that goes round and round year after year, but it never arrives at its destination of actually ending vaccine injury and death.<br />&nbsp;<br />For two centuries, many notable and highly regarded physicians/researchers stated that proof of contagion could not be found.

Receiving government services such as pensions, driver&rsquo;s licenses, passports, etc may also depend on vaccination compliance.<br /><br />Our food supply is at great risk. These net zero tyrants are on record saying that we will own nothing, be happy, and eat bugs. Almost nine million domestic birds in British Columbia and more than 14 million Canada-wide have been culled.&nbsp; It is believed that the next so-called victims of bird flu will be dairy cattle, then beef cattle, and on it goes. No dairy or meat by 2030 isn't a conspiracy theory - it's the actual plan.&nbsp; All of this, yet no proof of contagion to be found.<br /><br />On April 11th, 2025, the FDA granted fast track designation for a self-amplifying mRNA vaccine candidate (ARCT-2304) for active immunization to protect against influenza A H5N1 subtype, also known as bird flu.<br /><br /><strong>There&rsquo;s only one hitch, and it's a big one. </strong>Recent results of another of Christine Massey&rsquo;s FOI requests reveal that Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada have <strong>ZERO evidence</strong> of a bird flu virus or contagion. <span>See</span><strong><span> </span><a href="https://christinemasseyfois.substack.com/p/agriculture-and-agri-food-canada">Christine Massey's FOI results.</a></strong><br />&nbsp;<br />The Covid Plandemic showed us that when logical thought is replaced by fear and misinformation, people will vaccinate, socially isolate, and even leave their loved ones to die alone. <strong>The person most at risk of being fooled again is the one who fearfully believes in contagion, virology pseudoscience and the vaccine narrative.</strong><br /><br /><strong>What Can We Do?</strong><br /><br />I&rsquo;m suggesting that a new strategy is urgently needed in these unprecedented times. One that goes well beyond raising awareness of vaccine risks and gets right to the core of the matter - the myth of contagion.<br />&nbsp;<br />It's no longer good enough to be mired in virology speak.&nbsp; In fact, if we in the freedom movement continue to do so, we are ultimately stoking the fire of the fraud. It is imperative to get with the fact that there is no proof of contagion.<br /><br />I imagine that the folks warning about vaccination two hundred years ago would scarcely believe that it has come to this, where vaccination has resulted not only in an epidemic of illness and death, but also that is has become a weapon that threatens our very way of life, and our food supply, in this battle for ultimate control of all of us. But here we are.<br /><br />My suggestion is that at every opportunity, all of us at the grassroots level of the freedom movement demand proof of viral contagion before agreeing to anything, including:<ul><li>testing, quarantines, livestock cull orders, injecting livestock with mRNA shots or other vaccines</li><li>revealing children&rsquo;s vaccination information for daycare, elementary/high school/post-secondary education, sports leagues, school trips</li><li>coercion/mandates around prenatal vaccination, hospital birth, the childhood schedule, foster care, organ transplant, other medical treatments</li><li>revealing personal vaccination records for employment, senior residential and healthcare facilities</li></ul><br /><strong>As members of the freedom movement, we must stand together as a formidable, unyielding force that exposes the lie of contagion. Let us place our common hope for freedom, good health and happiness into action now, while we still have the chance.&nbsp; Use the forms below to demand proof of contagion.&nbsp; They cannot give us that - it simply does not exist.</strong><br /><br /></div>  <div class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;"><strong>Form for public health officials and others:</strong><br /><strong><em><a href="http://www.sookewapf.orghttps://www.grandeprairiewapf.org/uploads/9/9/3/0/99306456/questionnaire_vaccination_requirements_form.pdf" target="_blank">Questionnaire Regarding Vaccination Requirements (one page) - </a></em><a href="http://www.sookewapf.orghttps://www.grandeprairiewapf.org/uploads/9/9/3/0/99306456/questionnaire_vaccination_requirements_form.pdf" target="_blank">English</a> or <a href="https://www.sookewapf.orghttps://www.grandeprairiewapf.org/uploads/9/9/3/0/99306456/questionnaire_vaccination_requirements_form_french.pdf">French</a></strong>.&nbsp; Find further information in the article, <em><strong><a href="https://www.sookewapf.org/blog/anti-contagionists" target="_blank">Anti-Contagionists</a></strong></em>.<br /><u>Suggestions on how to use this form:</u><ul><li>Make sure you have one or more witnesses if you deliver the form in person.

Instead, realizing that contagion is a myth opens a whole new world of health choices and firmly closes the door on vaccine injury.<br /><br></div>  <div class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">Since the early 1800&rsquo;s, there have been countless organizations that have worked hard to warn parents about the risks of vaccination. In over two hundred years we&rsquo;ve gone from the early Anti-Vaccination Leagues in America, Canada and England, to the National Vaccine Information Centre, Vaccine Choice Canada, The Highwire, and Children&rsquo;s Health Defense (USA &amp; Canada), to the hugely successful Vaxxed movies and more.<br /><br />Many individuals including Dr. Sherri Tenpenny, Dr. Andrew Wakefield, Dr. Judy Mikovits, Dr. Christiane Northrup, Dr. Meryl Nass, Robert F. Kennedy Jr, and Del Bigtree have been at the forefront of the vaccine risk awareness movement for decades, tirelessly trying to save people from vaccine harm.<br /><br /><strong>But there are a few hard questions that must be asked.</strong><br></div>  <div>  <!--BLOG_SUMMARY_END--></div>  <div class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;"><strong>Have Over 200 Years of Raising Vaccine Risk Awareness Improved Children&rsquo;s Health?</strong><br /><br /><strong>No. </strong><span>In fact, more children are sick in ever-rising epidemic numbers with neurological injury, developmental delays, and lifelong illnesses rarely seen before in children.</span><br /><br /><strong>Have Decades of Raising Vaccine Risk Awareness Resulted in Fewer Vaccines?</strong><span> </span><br /><br /><strong>No.</strong><span> There are more vaccines than ever. On the childhood schedule we&rsquo;ve gone from 5 vaccines in the 1950&rsquo;s to 72 doses of 18 vaccines before age 18, not including the Covid-19 vaccine, which could add another 20 &ndash; 35 doses.</span><br /><br /><strong>Has Raising Awareness About the Covid Vaccine Risk Resulted in Fewer Childhood Vaccine Injuries?</strong><br /><br /><strong>No.</strong><span> When the alleged Covid pandemic hit, a whole new crop of physicians joined the vaccine risk awareness movement, including Dr. Byram Bridle, Dr. Peter McCullough, Dr. Robert Malone, and many others. The thing is that many of the doctors who openly exposed the dangers of the Covid vaccines still hold on to supporting the childhood vaccination schedule as if it were the holy grail, and still trust in unproven virology claims. They avoid talking about the myth of contagion like the plague.</span><br /><br /><span>Over these many decades every vaccine has been examined, its </span><a href="https://acrobat.adobe.com/id/urn:aaid:sc:US:1bf3c13b-91eb-4aa1-b7a0-ba1a6b1be9ac" target="_blank">ingredients</a><span> with their associated harms have been exposed, and vaccine injury reporting groups have publicized the facts about horrific injury, ruined lives, and death at the hands of vaccination. And yet the vaccination machine continues with ever more force to destroy the lives of children and their families.</span><br /><br />Until the day that we stop participating in the vaccination narrative and widely expose the fact that virology is pseudoscience, we will never be free. <br /><br /></div>  <div><div class="wsite-image wsite-image-border-none " style="padding-top:10px;padding-bottom:10px;margin-left:0;margin-right:0;text-align:center"> <a> <img src="https://www.grandeprairiewapf.org/uploads/9/9/3/0/99306456/hr-how-will-we-be-remembered_orig.png" alt="Picture" style="width:554;max-width:100%" /> </a> <div style="display:block;font-size:90%"></div> </div></div>  <div class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;"><strong>Let&rsquo;s Try a Better Approach</strong><br /><br /><span>Things have changed. </span><strong><span>We now know that there is </span><a href="https://www.westonaprice.org/health-topics/covid-virus-debate/#gsc.tab=0" target="_blank">no proof </a><span>of the existence of </span><a href="https://www.andrewkaufmanmd.com/sovi/" target="_blank">viruses</a><span> that cause </span><a href="https://a.co/d/7sGoaOt" target="_blank">contagion</a><span>.</span></strong><span> For centuries, many physicians/researchers have stated this fact but that has been covered up and disregarded for too long.</span><br /><br /><span>There are heroes among us. Dr. Tom Cowan, Dr. Andrew Kaufman, Sally Fallon Morell, Drs.

It&rsquo;s as though the subject were taboo. To me, this defies logic.</strong><br /><br /><span>If the bottom line is to stop vaccine injury and death, what would be more effective than blasting the news that virology has been shown to be </span><a href="https://acrobat.adobe.com/id/urn:aaid:sc:US:82945a18-3d9d-47ce-9dab-ff7d378831d1" target="_blank">scientifically unsubstantiated</a><span>, and that there is no proof of contagion? Is the risk of losing followers because of being too controversial more important than finally ending this 200-year-old charade?</span><br /><br /><strong>So where can young people about to become parents go for the entire, logical truth about contagion?</strong><br /><br />Unfortunately, not to any of the previously mentioned physicians or vaccine risk awareness groups that still cling to the vaccine narrative and participate in the lie by calling for safer vaccines, exemptions, and informed choice/consent. Failure to expose the whole truth about virology pseudoscience will soon result in irrelevance. The cat is out of the bag.<br /><br /><span>I am happy to say that The Weston A. Price Foundation (<a href="https://www.westonaprice.org" target="_blank">WAPF</a>) fearlessly and uniquely shares the facts about virology pseudoscience. WAPF is unparalleled in its commitment to help people, especially children, to live happy lives reaching their full potential. That includes freely offering precious knowledge of the </span><a href="https://www.westonaprice.org/11-principles-overview/" target="_blank">foodways</a><span> of our healthy ancestors who didn&rsquo;t experience massive poisoning, and who ate nourishing whole, unprocessed local foods - and most importantly didn't experience the epidemic of chronic illness that we now see.</span><br /><br /><span>Several years ago, I watched an </span><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cONYR7vAD-A" target="_blank">interview</a><span> </span><span>with</span><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cONYR7vAD-A" target="_blank"><span> </span></a><a href="https://doctor-natasha.com/" target="_blank">Dr. Natasha Campbell-McBride</a><span> that changed my life. In </span><em><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cONYR7vAD-A" target="_blank">Food is the Best Medicine</a></em><span>, she puts it all together - telling us the details about why our gut microbiome is foundational in reaching our full potential in radiant health, development and happiness. I&rsquo;d highly recommend this 49-minute </span>video<span> to anyone who wishes to take charge of their family&rsquo;s health.</span><br /><br />Sally Fallon Morell, best-selling co-author of the book, <a href="https://a.co/d/3elFG8a" target="_blank"><em>Nourishing Traditions</em></a> and President of the Weston A. Price Foundation, has stated that there are only three reasons for illness. One is accidents, of course. Second is malnutrition (even if we are well-fed, we can be malnourished). The third reason is poisoning.<br /><br /><strong>How are children being poisoned and malnourished?</strong><br /><br /><span>The poisonous </span><a href="https://acrobat.adobe.com/id/urn:aaid:sc:US:403da0d0-721b-4cda-a005-e3368570573b" target="_blank">ingredients</a><span> in vaccines cause harm and even death. Six vaccines are recommended now to pregnant women. Upon birth and throughout childhood 70+ doses are given by the time a child is 18. Add to that the agricultural chemicals and additives in processed foods that fail to nourish, and you get the picture. None of that, absolutely none of that, brings good health.</span><br /><br /><span>It is the right of parents to have healthy babies, uninjured by medical pseudoscience. Children are meant to bring us joy. When they are </span><a href="https://www.westonaprice.org/healthy-baby-photo-gallery-2023-2024-2/#gsc.tab=0" target="_blank">healthy</a><span>, they are happy, silly and the light of the lives of parents and grandparents. Joy and laughter can be hard to find when serious, chronic illness, and developmental delay come to stay because of vaccine injury. </span><br /><br /><span>Looking at the facts that show there is no proof of contagion and discovering the elegant design of the human body and its ability to heal itself and thrive is so much better than taking an unnecessary deep dive into vaccines. Look into WAPF&rsquo;s </span><a href="https://www.westonaprice.org/health-topics/yes-you-can/#gsc.tab=0" target="_blank">Yes-You-Can</a><span> </span><span>foodways for your family&rsquo;s nourishment and health.

Avian Flu is just the thing. Employ the heavy hand of health authorities to order &ldquo;timely depopulation of domestic birds on infected premises." Cause food shortages.</span><br />So far, these cull orders have taken almost nine million domestic birds in B.C. and more than 14 million Canada-wide. And they are just getting started. Will it be dairy cattle next, then beef cattle, pork?<br /><br /><strong>Step 2</strong><span> &ndash; Instill even more fear in the population, with statements like this from the Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA): &ldquo;... an infection in birds could be a precursor to a human flu pandemic.&rdquo;</span><br />So right on cue, Trudeau announces that he has bought 500,000 doses of bird flu vaccine.CBC adds to the fear-mongering with, &ldquo;Elsewhere, including in the United States, human death following infection has been reported and there are fears that if avian flu is allowed to spread and mutate, it could happen in Canada, too.&rdquo; All this without scientific proof of contagion.<br /><br /></div>  <div class="paragraph"><strong>How do we shake off the lying predators?<br /></strong><br></div>  <div class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">Avoid at all costs, being diagnosed with Dr. Tom Cowan&rsquo;s recently discovered affliction &ndash; SIT (Syndrome of Insufficient Thinking). Don&rsquo;t be full of SIT.<br /><br /><span>For any freedom warrior who isn't quite there yet on the concept of no contagion, check out Dr. Tom Cowan's March 12, 2025 video, </span><em><a href="https://www.bitchute.com/video/bNpyU2azGsrI">Viruses and Evolution: Do Either Exist?</a></em><span> It's very good! </span><br /><br /><span>Another wonderful resource is the book, </span><em>Can You Catch a Cold</em><span> by Daniel Roytas, with the foreword by Dr. Samantha Bailey.</span><br /><br /><span>Canada's Christine Massey publishes on her </span><a href="https://www.fluoridefreepeel.ca/fois-reveal-that-health-science-institutions-around-the-world-have-no-record-of-sars-cov-2-isolation-purification/">website</a><span> all of the results of FOIs that were sent to 225 health/science institutions in 40 countries around the world. They have no record of SARS-COV-2 isolation/purification at all, nor any other alleged virus on which they have been challenged. <span>See Christine's Substack <a href="https://christinemasseyfois.substack.com/p/agriculture-and-agri-food-canada" target="_blank">Newsletter</a> and her <a href="https://www.fluoridefreepeel.ca/affidavit-re-foi-and-fraud-and-delusion-of-virology" target="_blank">notarized affidavit</a> </span></span><span>regarding the hundreds of freedom of information responses (FOIs) confirming the fraud and delusion of virology.</span><br /><br /></div>  <div class="paragraph"><strong>Let&rsquo;s Speak Up Together<br /></strong><br></div>  <div class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">As a unified, informed force we can start speaking clearly and often, sharing the fact that there is absolutely no proof of contagion.<br /><br />I think it&rsquo;s more important than ever as freedom defenders to be discerning in choosing our alignments. Consider if it feels right for you to follow or support groups and individuals in this freedom movement who censor discussion on contagion. If their main focus is one of worn-out mantras about informed choice/consent, the dangers of vaccines, the need for safer vaccines, and the need for exemptions (when we all are already exempt), they may not be effective in these unprecedented times. And worse, their stance keeps the narrative of virology pseudoscience going, and has done so for many decades.<br /><br />Don&rsquo;t get me wrong. I certainly have immense gratitude for all those who have worked tirelessly to raise awareness of vaccine risk - it goes without saying. But, I feel that now is the time to take it that step farther to expose the pseudoscience of virology, and quickly. Without doing that, we remain locked in a narrative of fear - and we can&rsquo;t win this battle from there.Instead, I suggest we use our passion for wanting a better world and healthy futures for the following generations, by giving our energy and support to groups and individuals who are standing up, right now, and courageously telling the whole truth about the lie of contagion.<br /><br /></div>  <div class="paragraph"><strong>If contagion is off the table, the predators don&rsquo;t have a leg to stand on</strong><span>.</span><br><br /><span></span></div>  <div class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">Without contagion there simply is no reason for quarantines, no justification for the wholesale murder of millions of healthy animals, no excuse for the destruction of family farms and local economies, and vaccinations will be exposed as being completely unnecessary.<br /><br />We will finally be free of the vaccine industry and its reprehensible record of causing harm and death that spans well over a century. We will finally move on to bright and happy futures where radiant health and vitality are achieved on our own terms - free from chemical medicine.<br /><br /></div>  <div class="paragraph"><strong>Defy the predators.<br /></strong><br></div>  <div class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;"><span>Just say no.

These initiatives should complement efforts to introduce immunization education in school curricula.

The immune system cannot function without vitamin A.&nbsp; Two important points about vitamin A:</font>&#8203;</div>  <div class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;"><ul><li><font size="4">First, we cannot get adequate vitamin A by converting the carotenes in fruits and vegetables into the true vitamin A.&#61607;</font></li><li><font size="4">Secondly, vitamin A requires vitamins D and K2 as cofactors. Foods that provide us with vitamin A, usually also contain vitamins D and K2&mdash;foods like butter from grass-fed cows, egg yolks from pastured chickens, aged natural cheese, shellfish and organ meats like liver.</font></li></ul></div>  <div class="wsite-spacer" style="height:17px;"></div>  <div class="paragraph"><font size="4">In addition to these foods, cod liver oil can provide vitamins A and D on a daily basis.</font>&#8203;</div>  <div class="wsite-spacer" style="height:33px;"></div>  <div class="paragraph" style="text-align:center;"><strong><font size="4"><em>Before the advent of vaccinations, the medical profession knew</em><br /><em>that the vitamin A in cod liver oil would protect children</em><br /><em>against all sorts of infections.</em></font></strong>&#8203;</div>  <div class="wsite-spacer" style="height:23px;"></div>  <div class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;"><font size="4">Moms are recommended to take cod liver oil while pregnant and nursing, and to begin giving it to their children around two or three months. Use only cod liver oil containing natural vitamins. (See westonaprice.org/cod-liver-oil/ for more information and product recommendations)</font>&#8203;</div>  <div class="wsite-spacer" style="height:22px;"></div>  <div class="paragraph"><strong><font size="5">Raw Milk</font></strong>&#8203;</div>  <div class="wsite-spacer" style="height:18px;"></div>  <div class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;"><font size="4">Raw milk is a complete, highly digestible food for growing children. It is also a powerful immune builder. A key component of our immune system is antibodies, such as immunoglobins, which are found in raw milk.<br /><br />Vaccines are supposed to work by stimulating the production of antibodies, but babies cannot make antibodies, including vaccine-induced antibodies, until they are at least one year old. Yet babies today get over a dozen vaccines before the age of one.<br /><br />Babies get antibodies from their mother&rsquo;s milk, or from the milk of another species. In fact, raw milk&mdash;whether human, cow, goat, sheep, camel, reindeer or water buffalo&mdash;contains all the components of blood except for red blood cells.<br /><br />Raw milk creates the immune system in the infant, and nourishes that immune system throughout the period of growth. All of these valuable immune components, however, are destroyed by the heat of pasteurization.<br /><br />Studies from Europe indicate that children who drink raw milk have fewer respiratory infections and less asthma, allergies and skin rashes compared to children who do not consume raw milk. (For more information, and to find raw milk, visit <a href="https://www.realmilk.com/" target="_blank">realmilk.com</a>.)</font><br />(My edit to add:&nbsp; In BC,&nbsp; join the Facebook Group, <a href="https://www.facebook.com/groups/rawmilkbc/about/" target="_blank">Raw Milk British Columbia</a>)&#8203;</div>  <div class="wsite-spacer" style="height:20px;"></div>  <div class="paragraph"><strong><font size="5">Fermented Foods</font></strong>&#8203;</div>  <div class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;"><font size="4">Fermented foods like raw sauerkraut, homemade kefir and aged raw cheese contain beneficial protective bacteria. Eaten on a daily basis, the bacteria in these foods colonize the intestinal tract where they provide powerful protection against pathogens.<br /><br />During the past twenty years, scientists have learned that gut bacteria are critical to health. In fact, about 80 percent of our immune system comes from beneficial gut flora. In addition, the biofilm of good bacteria in the gut provides a barrier to heavy metals like aluminum and mercury.</font>&#8203;</div>  <div class="wsite-spacer" style="height:22px;"></div>  <div class="paragraph"><strong><font size="5">Avoid Processed Foods</font></strong>&#8203;</div>  <div class="wsite-spacer" style="height:14px;"></div>  <div class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;"><font size="4">In this age of industrial food production it&rsquo;s difficult to avoid processed foods, but parents will confer the great blessing of good health on their children by keeping them away from processed food. Especially avoid refined sweeteners like sugar, high fructose corn syrup and agave. Sugar uses up nutrients that the body needs to support the immune system.<br /><br />Vegetable oils are also known to depress the immune system, while natural saturated animal fats support the immune system. Cook in animal fats like butter and lard, and give your children butter instead of margarine and spreads. Make your own salad dressing using olive oil rather than purchase ready-made dressings, which are made with the cheapest oils and loaded with additives.<br /><br />In short, the recipe for protecting your children from disease and ensuring they will grow up healthy and strong is an old-fashioned, home-prepared diet rich in butter, eggs, cheese and nutrient-dense animal foods like liver and red meat. Fruits and vegetables can serve as vehicles for butter and cream!<br /><br />The addition of raw milk, fermented foods, bone broths and, above all, cod liver oil to your child&rsquo;s diet will compensate for the occasional junk food that cannot be avoided. This is the Wise Traditions diet&mdash;vastly superior than vaccinations for protecting your children from disease throughout their growing years.&rdquo;<br /><br />For further information: <a href="http://www.westonaprice.org/">westonaprice.org</a></font>&#8203;</div>  <div class="wsite-spacer" style="height:20px;"></div>  <div class="paragraph" style="text-align:center;"><em><font size="4">When diet is wrong, Medicine is of no use.<br />When diet is correct, Medicine is of no need.<br />~ Ayurvedic Proverb</font></em>&#8203;</div>  <div class="wsite-spacer" style="height:30px;"></div>  <div class="paragraph"><strong><font color="#8d5024" size="5">How To Minimize Vaccine Injury, by Ted Kuntz</font></strong></div>  <div class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;"><font size="4">If you must vaccinate, you can reduce the risk of vaccine injury in your children with the following guidelines:</font>&#8203;</div>  <div class="wsite-spacer" style="height:21px;"></div>  <div class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;"><font size="4">1. Consider delaying as long as possible. Some medical doctors recommend waiting at least two years until the child&rsquo;s immune system is more developed.<br /><br />2. Breastfeed your infant. Breastfeeding provides your infant with a sophisticated living immune system, which responds to pathogens that your child may be exposed to.<br /><br />3. Give large doses of Vitamin C to your child before any vaccination. This will help to reduce the negative side effects.<br /><br />4. Never vaccinate your child when he or she is sick.<br /><br />5. Refuse any vaccine that uses mercury as a preservative.<br /><br />6. Request vaccines with the lowest aluminium content.<br /><br />7. Refuse to allow your child to receive multiple vaccines at once. Request single dose vaccines.<br /><br />8. Space out the shots to allow you to monitor your child&rsquo;s response to each vaccine.<br /><br />9. Don&rsquo;t continue to vaccinate if your child has a reaction to a shot. Educate yourself on what vaccine adverse events may look like.<br /><br />10. Request and read the product information insert for each vaccine. Don&rsquo;t rely on your doctor to inform you of the risks and contraindications.<br /><br />11. Find a doctor who respects your questions and your concerns.<br /><br />12. Consult with a Naturopath. Investigate homeopathic remedies and other immune supports. Homeopathic remedies can reduce the injury caused by vaccination.<br /><br />13. Trust your intuition. If it doesn&rsquo;t feel right, don&rsquo;t do it. No one knows your child better than you do.<br /><br />14. Do not be pressured into vaccinating your child simply because it&rsquo;s the &ldquo;recommended schedule.&rdquo;<br /><br />15. The fewer vaccines, the better. Research shows the risk of injury increases with the number of vaccines given and the earlier they are given.<br /><br />16. Know your rights. Become a member of a <a href="https://vaccinechoicecanada.com/" target="_blank">vaccine choice advocacy organization</a>. Most jurisdictions have exemptions for medical, religious and personal belief.</font></div>  <div class="wsite-spacer" style="height:30px;"></div>  <div id="300223824301163356"><div><style type="text/css">	#element-9cdaed06-f8f0-4550-99d4-1bbd6d5f53c5 .colored-box-content {  clear: both;

Most interesting of all is the fact that many studies show that the problems with canola oil are not related to the content of erucic acid, but more with the high levels of omega-3 fatty acids and low levels of saturated fats."</font></span></div>  <div class="wsite-spacer" style="height:27px;"></div>  <h2 class="wsite-content-title"><strong>corn oil and Sunflower oil</strong></h2>  <div class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;"><font size="4"><span style="color:rgb(51, 51, 51)">These two oils are in a group of oils that </span>&nbsp;Sally Fallon and Mary G.

Safflower oil contains almost 80% omega-6. Researchers are just beginning to discover the dangers of excess omega-6 oils in the diet, whether rancid or not. Use of these oils should be strictly limited. They should never be consumed after they have been heated, as in cooking, frying or baking. High oleic safflower and sunflower oils, produced from hybrid plants, have a composition similar to olive oil, namely, high amounts of oleic acid and only small amounts of polyunsaturated fatty acids and, thus, are more stable than traditional varieties.

Olive oil has withstood the test of time; it is the safest vegetable oil you can use, but don&rsquo;t overdo.

This journey revealed that the vaccine industry has been&nbsp;systematically and intentionally dishonest with health&nbsp;consumers and governments on the safety, effectiveness and&nbsp;necessity of vaccinations.<br /><br />Kuntz believes the organized and intentional effort to deny&nbsp;citizens their right to make medical decisions for themselves&nbsp;and their children is the greatest threat to humanity today. If we lose the capacity for choice over what is injected into&nbsp;ourselves and our children, if we lose our self-autonomy and&nbsp;bodily integrity, then we are no longer free citizens.&nbsp;&nbsp;Protecting medical choice and demanding honesty, integrity&nbsp;and accountability in the vaccine industry have become the&nbsp;most important issues in Kuntz&rsquo;s life.</font><br /></div>   					 				</td>				<td class="wsite-multicol-col" style="width:50%; padding:0 15px;"> 					 						  <div><div class="wsite-image wsite-image-border-none " style="padding-top:10px;padding-bottom:10px;margin-left:0;margin-right:0;text-align:center"> <a> <img src="https://www.grandeprairiewapf.org/uploads/9/9/3/0/99306456/published/dare-to-question-amazon.jpg?1531422537" alt="Picture" style="width:337;max-width:100%" /> </a> <div style="display:block;font-size:90%"></div> </div></div>  <div class="wsite-spacer" style="height:34px;"></div>  <div class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;"><font size="4">The book, 'Dare to Question' is available both as a free download and for purchase <a href="http://www.daretoquestionvaccination.com/" target="_blank">here</a>.&nbsp; Please note that all proceeds from the sale of this book go to vaccine choice advocacy.</font></div>  <div class="wsite-spacer" style="height:15px;"></div>  <div class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;"><font size="4">Ted Kuntz is also the author of 'Peace Begins With Me&rsquo; and &lsquo;How Can I Wake Up When I Don&rsquo;t Know I&rsquo;m Asleep?&rsquo; Kuntz is a member of the Board of Directors of Vaccine Choice Canada and Health Action Network Society.</font></div>   					 				</td>			</tr> 		</tbody> 	</table> </div></div></div>  <div class="wsite-spacer" style="height:30px;"></div>  <div class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;"><font size="4"><a href="https://vaccinechoicecanada.com/in-the-news/formal-complaint-against-bc-provincial-health-officer/" target="_blank">Mr. Kuntz's letter</a> to Minister Dix exposes areas where the POH is failing to meet mandated responsibilities of the office as set out by the Ministry of Health and by the 2008<span> </span>WHO&nbsp;Beijing<span> </span>Declaration.&nbsp; He also states that the PHO not only denies the impact of vaccinations, environmental factors and diet on health, but shows a failure&nbsp;to<span> </span>recommend<span> </span>actions<span> </span>to<span> </span>improve<span> </span>health<span> </span>and<span> </span>wellness<span> </span>in<span> </span>BC.</font></div>  <div class="wsite-spacer" style="height:17px;"></div>  <div class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;"><strong style="color:rgb(6, 6, 6)"><font size="4">2)&nbsp; Attached <a href="https://wm-no.glb.shawcable.net/service/home/~/?auth=co&amp;loc=en&amp;id=64477&amp;part=2" target="_blank">here</a> is a letter from Dr. Anke Zimmermann registering an Official Complaint with BC Minister of Health, Adrian Dix regarding BC's top doctor, Bonnie Henry.</font></strong></div>  <div class="wsite-spacer" style="height:15px;"></div>  <div class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;"><font size="4">Anke Zimmermann is a naturopathic doctor and classical homeopath with a special interest in childhood developmental and behavioural conditions.

Today, autism affects more than 1 in 68 children (age 5 &ndash; 17) in BC, and at the current rate of growth autism is projected to affect 1 in 2 children by 2030 (80% of boys).&nbsp; The impact of autism on BC will be catastrophic. https://www.canada.ca/en/public-health/services/publications/diseases-conditions/autism-spectrum-disorderchildren-youth-canada-2018.html.&nbsp; Thirty years ago autism, asthma, attention deficit disorder, learning disabilities, life threatening allergies and juvenile diabetes were virtually non-existent.&nbsp; According to a 2010 study published in The Journal of the American Medical Association, chronic illnesses in children doubled from 1994 to 2006 and now affects more than 1 out of 4 children in the United States.&nbsp; Canadian numbers are likely similar and may be even higher today. https://jamanetwork.com/journals/jama/fullarticle/185391.<br /><br />I believe that the office of the PHO has failed to sound the alarm to legislators, public health ministers and the public that we are in the midst of a major health crisis.&nbsp; At this time when it is obvious that our current system is broken, would it not be advisable for the PHO to become familiar with and offer recommendations for successful and safe alternative options?&nbsp; Note that in France, a country The World Health Organization (WHO) has deemed to have the best healthcare in the world, 95% of French pediatricians, dermatologists and GPs prescribe homeopathic medicines.&nbsp; A marriage between alternative health care and conventional medicine is obviously contributing to a healthy population in France - why isn't this happening here?&nbsp; (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/25921648)&nbsp; (http://www.who.int/whr/2000/media_centre/press_release/en/)<br /><br />Dr. Henry&rsquo;s widely publicized media attacks on the validity and safety of alternative health therapies, including homeopathy and chiropractic, are completely unacceptable.&nbsp; Minister Dix, you have stated in the media that regulation of homeopathic treatments is not within the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Health.&nbsp; This surely underscores that Ms. Henry was speaking to the media inappropriately and well outside of her mandated role under the Ministry of Health.<br /><br />It is hard to fathom why a key focus of the PHO seems to be to malign therapies that are not within the confines of the allopathic realm and instead undertake aggressive promotion of vaccination compliance.&nbsp; Where is the much needed exploration of what could be the causes of the exploding crisis levels in chronic disease we see?&nbsp; Added to this misplaced focus, the reality of vaccine injury is blatantly ignored and never reported to the press.&nbsp; The public is denied their right of truly informed consent, and is unduly influenced through unreliable media reports that often misrepresent the fact that vaccination is voluntary and not mandatory for school attendance.&nbsp; The promotion of untested vaccines as being safe and effective against overwhelming evidence of harm, is dishonest and dangerous to public health.&nbsp; What possible justification is there for censoring discussion around very real and documented evidence that challenges the mantra that vaccines are &lsquo;safe and effective&rsquo;?&nbsp;&nbsp;<br /><br />In November 2008, the WHO adopted The Beijing Declaration to promote the safe and effective use of traditional medicine (i.e. natural medicine and therapies).&nbsp; This includes taking key steps to integrate natural medicines and therapies into healthcare systems.&nbsp; For member states to follow the declaration, they must:</font><ul><li><font size="4">Promote and respect natural therapies</font></li><li><font size="4">Create policies to support safe use of natural medicine</font></li><li><font size="4">Call on governments to integrate natural healthcare</font></li><li><font size="4">Contribute to natural health research and innovation</font></li><li><font size="4">Improving delivery and access</font></li><li><font size="4">Promoting sustainability</font></li><li><font size="4">Establishing and monitoring reporting systems.</font></li><li><font size="4">Establish quality licensing for practitioners</font></li><li><font size="4">Seek to see natural healthcare used in tandem with modern medicine</font></li></ul><font size="4">A dutiful response to the Beijing Declaration by the Ministry of Health and the PHO would be to grow the relationship between alternative, natural therapies and the allopathic approach.&nbsp; The PHO has not only failed to do this, but her media comments have widened the gap.<br /><br />It is my humble opinion that what&rsquo;s behind our current health crisis is actually pretty simple.&nbsp; It has occurred because public health policies have for decades been based upon over zealous food and health industry influence, rather than upon independent studies that stand up to scientific rigour and evidence base as they should.&nbsp; The world of Big Pharma and Big Food/Big Agriculture dominate with cruel results &ndash; this is unsustainable and any government that just goes along with this, or worse &ndash; promotes their corporate agenda, is failing us all terribly and is frankly complicit in the tragedy of rampant chronic illness that is upon the citizens of BC.<br /><br />Minister Dix, I have read that the &ldquo;core fundamentals&rdquo; that you embrace include &ldquo;an excellent health care system that operates efficiently.&rdquo;&nbsp; I trust and believe that is what you want and are working hard to make reality.&nbsp; Unfortunately, the writing is on the wall &ndash; it won&rsquo;t happen under our current massively failing system.&nbsp; I imagine Tommy Douglas would roll over in his grave to see the reality of corporate medicine&rsquo;s take over of our universal access to health care with results that are devastating more families each and every day.&nbsp; Please stand up for the principles that are the basis of the NDP party and be open to making desperately needed changes to BC&rsquo;s health care system for the benefit of all.<br /><br />I hope that you will acknowledge that the Beijing Declaration supports the use of traditional therapies in health care and see to it that the Ministry of Health follows those recommendations.&nbsp; Traditional foodways have been used as medicine forever.&nbsp; This brings me to a point I would like to make about the traditional use of raw milk as healing food.&nbsp; In the early 1900&rsquo;s the Milk Cure was successfully used in curing many diseases, and raw milk is used as medicine to this day in hospitals in Europe.&nbsp; I believe that the BC Minister of Health and the PHO are not being faithful to the Beijing Declaration by continuing to outlaw a traditional healing food like raw milk in BC.<br /><br />Raw milk is NOT a "health hazard" - there is no evidence that properly produced raw milk is any more hazardous than any other common food.<br /><br />The need for traditional, nutrient-dense, health-giving foods is great. Canada has the highest rate of inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) in the world &ndash; a condition that is often associated with autism. &ldquo;You speak to some of the older doctors who have been practicing for 20 or 30 years, they almost never saw children under five (diagnosed),&rdquo; says Dr. Eric Benchimol, a pediatric gastroenterologist at the Children's Hospital of Eastern Ontario, in Ottawa. &ldquo;Now it&rsquo;s almost a regular occurrence.&rdquo;<br /><br />Pivotal to restoring gut health are nutrient-dense traditional clean foods including highly probiotic foods such as raw milk, and most especially, raw milk kefir.&nbsp; Raw milk kefir is a traditional alternative healing modality.&nbsp; It is one of the most potent probiotic foods available.&nbsp; This excellent referenced article goes through the reasons why raw milk kefir can be uniquely helpful in improving gut health:&nbsp; https://chriskresser.com/kefir-the-not-quite-paleo-superfood/.<br /><br />I was surprised to note that BC&rsquo;s Guiding Framework for Public Health has, as its only reference to diet, the goal of seeing an increase in the percentage of British Columbians (age 12+) who consume fruit and vegetables at least 5 times per day.&nbsp;<br />http://www.health.gov.bc.ca/library/publications/year/2017/BC-guiding-framework-for-public-health-at-a-glance-2017.pdf&nbsp; Are you kidding me &ndash; that&rsquo;s it?&nbsp; Fruits and vegetables?&nbsp; There is a critical need for reliable holistic nutrition education around of the importance of nutrient-dense, traditional diets that contain clean whole foods, rich in healthy fats, key vitamins and which recommend the avoidance of processed foods.&nbsp; A plethora of reliable, science-backed information on the wisdom of eating such a diet is provided by the not-for-profit Weston A. Price Foundation: https://www.westonaprice.org/.<br /><br />The PHO and the Ministry of Health should support the work of thousands of Canadian physicians and allied health professionals who are petitioning Health Canada to correct our decades-wrong official dietary guidelines.&nbsp; I highly recommend reading the evidence base which is attached to their petition.&nbsp; These physicians and allied health professionals find success in reversing diseases like diabetes and obesity with the use of nutrient-dense, lower carb diets &ndash; contrary to Health Canada dietary recommendations.&nbsp; Here is the link to their petition: https://www.changethefoodguide.ca/.&nbsp; Please see their associated website, Canadian Clinicians for Therapeutic Nutrition (CCTN) here:&nbsp; https://ccfortn.ca<br /><br />&ldquo;Childhood diseases are either mild or non-existent when parents practice the kind of good nutrition that we advocate. Diets rich in vitamins A and C can protect children against disease much better than vaccinations, and with side effects that are good, never harmful. Public health policy should be aimed at accurate information about nutrition, not the promotion of vaccinations that actually suppress the immune system and often have tragic side effects.&rdquo; ~ Sally Fallon Morell, President, The Weston A. Price Foundation<br /><br />Minister Dix, I implore you to be part of solution for the sake of the children and all of us who rely upon your ministry&rsquo;s policies to protect our health.&nbsp; It is unconscionable that so many children would continue to be injured by vaccines, harmful dietary and medical advice/interventions, environmental poisons, and our broken, nutrient-deficient, poisoned food system when solutions are staring us in the face.<br /><br />The BC Ministry of Health must show direction that will lead to the prevention and recovery of chronic illness, rather than the existing emphasis on pharmaceutical and conventional approaches only &ndash; to not do so will be to our peril, and doom future generations to severely compromised health.&nbsp; The almost 200 new vaccines coming to market and a new ramped-up schedule for adult vaccination should be a big warning flag for anyone who has looked into vaccine safety.&nbsp;<br /><br />I understand that some health care recommendations and policies come to the province under the umbrella of Health Canada.&nbsp; I do, however, request that you exercise your authority where ever you can to make healthy changes in BC, and use your position to advocate for healthy changes on a national level.<br /><br />The answers to many health problems are already there waiting for us to employ them &ndash; our bodies are astounding at healing themselves if we only give them a chance with clean nutrient-dense foods and nurturing therapies that are never toxic.&nbsp; I am aware of remarkable recoveries from autism, mental illness, and debilitating chronic disease, and none of that was achieved by exclusively using pharmaceuticals, allopathic medicine, and the Canada Food Guide.<br /><br />In order to improve the Ministry of Health&rsquo;s impact on the well-being of the citizens of BC and to rectify the failures and indiscretions of the PHO, please consider the following suggestions:<br /><br />That a commitment be made by the Ministry of Health and the PHO to take positive steps to honour the Beijing Declaration to promote the safe and effective use of traditional medicine (i.e. natural medicine and therapies). This includes taking key steps to integrate natural medicines and therapies into healthcare systems &ndash; including food such as raw milk as a natural and traditional therapy.<br /><br />That the PHO make a public retraction and apology for her uninformed media assault on homeopathy which was publicized the world over, and that she publicly apologize to Dr. Anke Zimmermann.<br /><br />That the Ministry of Health and the PHO develop a policy of openness and truth regarding the safety of vaccinations, and ensures that the public is informed through honest media reporting that vaccination is voluntary in BC, and that the inherent risks vs benefits of vaccinating are openly publicized so that informed choices can be made.<br /><br />That a moratorium be considered on vaccinations (and especially on the nearly 200 new vaccines coming to market) until the BC government has conducted a study (independent of pharmaceutical influence) comparing the health of vaccinated vs unvaccinated children in BC and until vaccines are independently tested and proven to be safe.<br /><br />That the Ministry of Health and the PHO call for an immediate ban on GMO&rsquo;s and chronic antibiotic chemicals like glyphosate and encourage the Ministry of Agriculture to offer government incentives/subsidies to regenerative organic farmers.<br /><br />The Minister of Health strike an independent advisory committee to work with the PHO to address the epidemic of autism and other neurological and immunological disorders. The committee ought to include allied health professionals including Naturopathic Doctors, Homeopaths, Chiropractic Doctors and Registered Holistic Nutritionists (RHN).&nbsp;<br /><br />Thank you sincerely for your attention to this, Minister Dix.&nbsp; Here is a link on topic for your perusal.&nbsp; https://www.alternativeboomerlegacy.com/blog/the-eleventh-hour<br /><br />Kind regards,<br />Linda Morken<br /><br />cc:<br />Premier John Horgan &ndash; premier@gov.bc.ca<br />Lana Popham, Minister of Agriculture &ndash; lana.popham.mla@leg.bc.ca<br />Dr. Bonnie Henry, PHO &ndash; bonnie.henry@gov.bc.ca<br />Members of the Legislative Assembly of BC<br />College of Naturopathic Physicians of BC &ndash; office@cnpbc.bc.ca<br />BC Naturopathic Association &ndash; bcna@bcna.ca<br />College of Chiropractors of BC &ndash; info@chirobc.com<br />Health Action Network Society &ndash; naida@hans.org<br />Vaccine Choice Canada &ndash; info@vaccinechoicecanada.com<br />Canadian Clinicians for Therapeutic Nutrition (CCTN)<br />&ndash; Barbra Allen Bradshaw, Co-founder &ndash; ballenbradshaw@gmail.com<br />Ted Kuntz<br />Dr. Anke Zimmermann<br />Weston A.

WESTON A. PRICE (1870-1948)</font></strong></div><div class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;"><ul style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0)"><li><font size="4">Weston Andrew Valleau Price, the ninth child in a family of 12, grew up on a farm in Newburg, Canada. This backwoods Canadian family produced an inventor, a medical doctor, two dentists, a Methodist minister and a resourceful farmer son.</font><font size="2">1</font></li><li><font size="4">The Price family lineage goes back through a long line of Celtic princes, traced as far as 230 AD. The name derives from ap Rees or ap Rice, a family centered around the town of Brecon in Wales.</font></li><li><font size="4">Price&rsquo;s nephew, Willard DeMille Price (son of Albert, his inventor brother), was a famous writer, explorer and traveler whose reports were often featured in the&nbsp;National Geographic magazine.</font></li><li><font size="4">Price became interested in diet as a prime factor in dental decay after he was stricken with typhoid fever in 1893. At the time he was practicing dentistry in Grand Forks, North Dakota. His older brother Albert nursed him back to health, but during his illness Weston&rsquo;s teeth had decayed alarmingly. He went back to the family farm to convalesce where not only his health improved, but his dental deterioration was arrested. The following spring, he and his uncle William Delmage camped for an extended period in the back country of Canada, living on salmon, small game and berries. Delmage was a man of great intuitive wisdom who understood the role of natural food sources for refurbishing and sustaining the body. The backwoods diet worked wonders for Weston Price.</font></li><li><font size="4">Weston shared an interest in electricity with his brother Albert. He taught &ldquo;applied electricity and electro-therapeutics&rdquo; at Western Reserve University (now Case Western Reserve University) from 1897 to 1904. After he left the faculty in 1904, his subject matter was dropped from the curriculum.</font><font size="2">2</font></li><li><font size="4">In 1899, Weston Price and his wife Florence built the Bon Echo Inn on the shores of Mazinaw Lake in southeast Ontario. Florence suggested the name Bon Echo because of the marvelous echo that rebounded from the face of the granite cliff on the opposite shore. The remote site presented an incredible challenge and building the 28-room inn was &ldquo;a feat which never could have been accomplished without the indomitable persistence of Dr. Price and his sublime indifference to the almost incredible difficulties that beset him at every turn,&rdquo; according to Merrill Denison, a later owner of the Inn. Dr. Price and his wife operated the Inn during the summers until they sold it in 1910. The site later became Bon Echo Provincial Park.</font><font size="2">3</font></li><li><font size="4">Dr. Price and his wife lost their only son Donald to complications from an infected root canal, which Price himself had put in. Price went on to write a 1000-page tome on the problems of systemic dental infections from root canals.</font></li><li><font size="4">After selling the Inn, Price established a dental practice in a house at 8926 Euclid Avenue in Cleveland, Ohio. (He lived several blocks away on Lamont Street.) At the height of his career, the practice included several dentists on the first floor and a laboratory on the second floor where Mr. Howdy, a chemist of German origin, performed analyses for fat-soluble activators in hundreds of samples of butter and other foods sent to Dr. Price from all over the world.</font></li><li><font size="4">Dr. Price was a devout Methodist who taught Sunday school at his neighborhood church. However, later in life he expressed dismay over the fact that Christian missionaries were so often the vector for the introduction of modernized foods into native populations.</font><font size="2">4</font></li></ul></div></div>    </div></div></div><div style="clear:both;"></div></div></div>  <div class="wsite-spacer" style="height:22px;"></div>  <div class="wsite-spacer" style="height:13px;"></div>  <div class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;"><font size="4"><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0)">The Weston A.

True to his predictions, rates of cancer, infertility, diabetes, heart disease, obesity, and degenerative diseases have skyrocketed.&nbsp; Today we consider it normal for children to need braces, to suffer from allergies and fatigue and to have difficulty focusing their attention.&nbsp; Today one child in 36 is on the autism spectrum (one in 28 of the boys).&nbsp; Statistical research shows that widespread chronic illness has become common only in the past 50 or so years, the same period during which <a href="https://www.westonaprice.org/podcast/7-hidden-dangers-to-our-health/" target="_blank">highly processed foods and toxic chemicals</a> have entered the food supply.&nbsp;

Raw milk can truly be a life-saving food and has been shown to help with asthma, allergies and many other conditions.&nbsp; In our current epidemic of autism and chronic illness in children, raw milk can be a pivotal part of <a href="http://www.gapsdiet.com/" target="_blank" style="">healing gut dysbiosis </a>&nbsp;- a disorder which is common to many children and adults alike with chronic illnesses.&nbsp;</font></span></div>  <div class="wsite-spacer" style="height:14px;"></div>  <div class="wsite-youtube" style="margin-bottom:10px;margin-top:10px;"><div class="wsite-youtube-wrapper wsite-youtube-size-auto wsite-youtube-align-center"> <div class="wsite-youtube-container">  <iframe src="//www.youtube.com/embed/KDRnNxnj1AU?wmode=opaque" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe> </div> </div></div>  <div class="wsite-spacer" style="height:22px;"></div>  <h2 class="wsite-content-title"><strong><span>Why do farmers want the right to produce raw milk?</span></strong></h2>  <div class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;"><font color="#000000" size="5">&#8203;Thirty years ago, BC had over 4,000 dairy farms, today there under 500 and declining. Small local dairies boost the economy and selling milk, butter and cream can actually be what saves the family farm. One small farm can easily employ five full-time staff and more. Farmers have been denied fair markets for their dairy products for more than a century in Canada. Farm families are deprived of making an honest living. Because of a food regulation that doesn&rsquo;t apply to many other higher risk foods, farmers that produce traditional raw milk risk going to jail and ludicrous fines that can mean losing their farms.</font></div>  <div class="wsite-spacer" style="height:23px;"></div>  <h2 class="wsite-content-title"><strong><span>But is raw milk safe?</span></strong></h2>  <div class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;"><font color="#000000" size="5">&#8203;No one will argue that in days long gone there were serious problems with swill milk that came from sick cows in deplorable, dirty conditions. However, with proper standards and modern testing with a food safety plan (such as with a Risk Analysis and Management Program &ndash; <a href="http://www.rawmilkinstitute.org/what-is-a-ramp/" target="_blank">RAMP</a>), regulated raw milk can be extremely safe. In fact, raw milk is deemed to be no more risky than eating spinach. Raw milk isn&rsquo;t risk free, but it is a low risk food. This conclusion was documented in a Grand Rounds presentation at BC&rsquo;s own Centre for Disease Control last year by researcher Nadine Ijaz. Modern safety checks and methods ensure healthy cows and clean milk. Making raw milk sales legal and regulated is a way to achieve these standards.</font></div>  <div class="wsite-spacer" style="height:23px;"></div>  <div class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;"><span><font color="#000000" size="5">The non-profit Weston A. Price Foundation (for which I am a volunteer Chapter Leader for Victoria and area) has advocated for the legal sale of safe, raw milk for many years. Their Campaign for Real Milk has been instrumental in the fact that raw milk is now legally available in 43 American states and in many countries the world over. In this time of never-before-seen numbers of children suffering from chronic, degenerative diseases, the awareness that raw milk is a nourishing and healing food is growing. The demand for it is large and won&rsquo;t be stopping any time soon.</font></span></div>  <div class="wsite-spacer" style="height:22px;"></div>  <div class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">&#8203;<span><font color="#000000" size="5">Canada is the only G8 Country that restricts 100% access to farm fresh milk. Many European countries even dispense raw milk in vending machines. I believe it is long past time to change this regulation and bring British Columbia to a place where the need for raw milk is acknowledged and the rights of its citizens to produce and access this traditional food are respected.</font></span></div>  <div class="wsite-spacer" style="height:21px;"></div>  <h2 class="wsite-content-title"><strong>&#8203;<span>What Can You Do?</span></strong></h2>  <div class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;"><font color="#000000" size="5">&#8203;If you feel that the regulations around the production and consumption of raw milk should be changed in British Columbia, your help is needed. I urge you to write to BC&rsquo;s Minister of Health, the Honourable Adrian Dix, and ask him to please remove clause 2(a) from the Health Hazards Regulation. This is the law which classifies raw milk as a &ldquo;health hazard,&rdquo; and &ldquo;causing a health hazard&rdquo; in BC can lead to fines of up to $3 million dollars or 3 years in jail under the Public Health Act. Health authority inspectors use this law to shut down herdshares, even if no illness has ever been caused. <strong style="">All that is needed to change this regulation is the Honourable Minister&rsquo;s signature on a Minister&rsquo;s Order.</strong>&nbsp;&nbsp;</font></div>  <div class="wsite-spacer" style="height:19px;"></div>  <div id="325316733583189075"><div><style type="text/css">	#element-72bb8d92-3276-4ff5-89cd-acad54b97a2d .colored-box-content {  clear: both;  float: left;  width: 100%;  -moz-box-sizing: border-box;  -webkit-box-sizing: border-box;  -ms-box-sizing: border-box;  box-sizing: border-box;  background-color: #f8eaa9;  padding-top: 20px;  padding-bottom: 20px;  padding-left: 20px;  padding-right: 20px;  -webkit-border-top-left-radius: 0px;  -moz-border-top-left-radius: 0px;  border-top-left-radius: 0px;  -webkit-border-top-right-radius: 0px;  -moz-border-top-right-radius: 0px;  border-top-right-radius: 0px;  -webkit-border-bottom-left-radius: 0px;  -moz-border-bottom-left-radius: 0px;  border-bottom-left-radius: 0px;  -webkit-border-bottom-right-radius: 0px;  -moz-border-bottom-right-radius: 0px;  border-bottom-right-radius: 0px;}</style><div id="element-72bb8d92-3276-4ff5-89cd-acad54b97a2d" data-platform-element-id="848857247979793891-1.0.1" class="platform-element-contents">	<div class="colored-box">    <div class="colored-box-content">        <div style="width: auto"><div></div><div class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;"><font color="#030303"><strong><span><font size="4">Minister Dix's contact information:</font></span></strong><font size="4"><strong style="">&#8203;</strong><br />The Honourable Adrian Dix<br />Mailing Address: PO Box 9050.

Yet, since we also anticipate&nbsp;the demand for long-term care (LTC) to increase 10-fold, the economic burden of&nbsp;dementia care is expected to surpass $153 billion."</font></div>  <div class="wsite-spacer" style="height:22px;"></div>  <div class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;"><font size="4"><font color="#000000">Our government health officials' method of dealing with the epidemic of dementia in Canada is strictly a band-aid approach: focus on building more long-term care facilities, rather than look for cause and prevention. &nbsp;The authors of our dietary guidelines can be held responsible for untold illness, as Health Canada recommends a low fat/wrong fat, mostly plant-based diet and the de-classification of dairy as a food group, against all sound evidence-based nutritional research.&nbsp;</font></font></div>  <div class="wsite-spacer" style="height:18px;"></div>  <div class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;"><strong><font size="4">Health Canada persists in dietary recommendations that feed illness, fails to investigate with integrity the aluminum in vaccines connection to dementia, and ignores emerging evidence that <a href="https://www.westonaprice.org/health-topics/vaccinations/why-we-need-to-reexamine-the-riskbenefit-tradeoffs-of-vaccines/" target="_blank">glyphosate (Roundup) binds with aluminum and takes up residence in the brain</a>.</font></strong></div>  <div class="wsite-spacer" style="height:23px;"></div>  <div class="paragraph"><strong><font color="#8d5024" size="5">More Reasons to Avoid Aluminum in Vaccines</font></strong></div>  <div class="wsite-spacer" style="height:18px;"></div>  <div class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;"><font color="#000000" size="4">&#8203;Lucija Tomljenovic holds a Ph.D in biochemistry and is currently a senior research fellow at the University of British Columbia School of Medicine in Vancouver, BC, Canada.&nbsp; &nbsp;This is what she had to say in an interview with the&nbsp;<em><a href="http://www.straight.com/life/aluminum-vaccines-may-be-linked-health-risks" target="_blank">Georgia Straight</a>:</em></font></div>  <div class="wsite-spacer" style="height:20px;"></div>  <div class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;"><font color="#000000" size="4">&#8203;"Tomljenovic,&nbsp;who recently had a study published in the&nbsp;<em>Journal of Alzheimer&rsquo;s Disease</em>&nbsp;on the link between the metallic element and that neurodegenerative condition, said that only very small amounts of aluminum are needed to produce neurotoxicity and that the substance actively crosses the blood-brain barrier.</font></div>  <div class="wsite-spacer" style="height:14px;"></div>  <div class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;"><font size="4" color="#000000">&#8203;&ldquo;The main problem with aluminum is that even regular dietary intake can have long-term adverse consequences to the nervous system,&rdquo; she told the&nbsp;<em>Georgia Straight</em>. &ldquo;This has been verified by studies done in rats who were fed the equivalent of what humans take over a lifetime and then exhibited classical Alzheimer&rsquo;s symptoms. The control rats fed an alum-free diet did not show such adverse outcomes.
