Evidence of poison: New Levels of Compulsory Drugging – MSG Sprayed on Your Food!

Thursday, October 23rd, 2008

There are two articles which follow this introduction which have great bearing on your health and, eventually, your ability survive.
Agricultural chemicals have been known since their inception to pose significant threats to human, animal and environmental health. They are, in fact, only approved for use on the food supply of people and animals because, in my opinion, of the enormous wealth which chemical companies, which are, in essence, a branch of the pharmaceutical industry, have have available to throw at compliant regulators and legislators, plus deceptive and misleading advertising bulwarked by corporate junk science.

Agricultural chemicals are not, however, limited to herbicides, fungicides, pesticides and fertilizers. Other chemicals quality for that designation, too. For many years, the US has permitted the spraying of fluoride and mercury on crops after harvest to prevent mold growth during storage despite the well characterized dangers of those substances.
Now, another toxin, also well known for its adverse effect on the brain, the nervous system, the endocrine system, perception, mood and vascular integrety has been approved by the supposed guardians of our health, the FDA, EPA and USDA for direct application, without any upper limit, on our foods.

Read this article and ask yourself whether you ever want to eat non organic food again. Then ask yourself why regulators are permitting known toxins in our food.

Among the freedoms that we believe belong to you and that we are fighting for on your behalf, and ours, is the right to know what your food has been sprayed with, genetically modified with, contaminated with or irradiated with. In short, if food is contaminated you have a right to know it.
And you have another right, too, as I see it.
You have a right to be protected by the regulators from the self-interested companies that do not care at all about the damage their chemicals and processes bring to you and yours. That is, after all, what we believe regulatory agencies are supposed to do. But the sad truth is that we need to be protected FROM the regulatory agencies.
That’s one of the things that Natural Solutions Foundation does, in fact. And, of course, we need your help.

MSG is being sprayed right on fruits, nuts, seeds, grains, and vegetables as they grow —
even those used in baby food

In the 1970s, reluctant food processors “voluntarily” took processed free glutamic acid (MSG) out of baby food. Today it’s back, in fertilizers called “Omega Protein Refined/Hydrolyzed Fish Emulsion” and “Steam Hydrolyzed Feather Meal,” both of which contain hydrolyzed proteins; and in a product called AuxiGro WP Plant Metabolic Primer (AuxiGro) produced by Emerald BioAgriculture (formerly Auxein Corporation), which contains both hydrolyzed protein(s) and “monosodium glutamate.” AuxiGro is being sprayed on some of the vegetables we and our children will eat, into the air we and our children must breath, and onto the ground from which it can move into drinking water. Head lettuce, leaf lettuce, tomatoes, potatoes, and peanuts were among the first crops targeted. On September 12, 2000, the Auxein Corporation Web site gave the following information:

Crops registered include: Celery; Fresh Market Cucumbers; Edible Navy and Pinto Beans; Grapes; Bulb Onions; Bell, Green and Jalapeno Peppers; Iceberg Head Lettuce; Romaine and Butter Leaf Lettuce; Peanuts; Potatoes; Snap Beans; Strawberries; Processing Tomatoes; Fresh Tomatoes; and Watermelons.

Today, there is no crop that we know of that has not been approved for treatment with MSG by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

Even in California — the only state where there are any restrictions on the use of AuxiGro — AuxiGro has been approved for use on a number of crops, and Emerald BioAgriculture continues to push for more. Field tests in California have been — and may continue to be — conducted on a variety of crops, and those AuxiGro treated crops may be sold in the open market without revealing that they have been treated. We can’t tell you which crops those are because the CDPR has refused to send records of test trials (which are public information) to the Truth in Labeling Campaign.

As of June 13, 2002, AuxiGro was registered for use in California on tomatoes, almonds, apricots, cherries, plums, nectarines, peaches, prunes, grapes (including grapes to be used in wine), and onions. At that time, the California Department of Pesticide Regulation said they were not aware of any testing of AuxiGro for use on other crops. They also said that they did not have any proposals presently in house to register additional crops for AuxiGro. It would appear, however, that what the CDPR said was not true, for the CDPR subsequently announced that Emerald BioAgriculture had applied for permission to use AuxiGro on tomatoes (new use), and on melons (new crop) — and, to the best of our knowledge, approval is always preceded by field testing.

On July 7, 2004, Emerald BioAgriculture requested approval of use of AuxiGro as a desiccant, disinfectant, fertilizer, fungicide, growth regulator – for increased yield and prevention of powdery mildew in various crops such as almonds, grapes, and melons. They also asked to add cole crops (including broccoli, brussels sprouts, cabbage, cauliflower, kale, collards, turnips, rutabaga, mustard, watercress, and kohlrabi) to the list of crops approved for AuxiGro use.

Approval for use on organic crops–in all states–has been requested.

What’s wrong with using glutamic acid, an amino acid found in protein, as a spray on crops?

– In protein, amino acids are found in balanced combinations. Use of free glutamic acid as a spray on crops throws the amino acid balance out of kilter.

– It’s not the glutamic acid found in protein that is being sprayed on crops, it’s a synthetic product. The spray being used most widely is called AuxiGro. The “free glutamic acid” or so called “L-glutamic acid” component being used by its manufacturer, Emerald BioAgriculture, contains L-glutamic acid, an amino acid found in protein; but it also contains D-glutamic acid, pyroglutamic acid, and other chemicals referred to in the industry as “contaminants.” The free glutamic acid used in AuxiGro is processed free glutamic acid. It is manufactured — in chemical plants — where certain selected genetically engineered bacteria — feeding on a liquid nutrient medium — excrete the free glutamic acid they synthesize outside of their cell membrane into the liquid medium in which they are grown. In contrast, the free glutamic acid found in protein, and the free glutamic acid involved in normal human body function, are unprocessed. free glutamic acid, and contain no contaminants.

– No one knows what the long term effects of spraying processed free glutamic acid on crops will be.

– That the processed free glutamic acid (MSG) will be absorbed into the body of the plant and into the fruit, nuts, seeds, or vegetable it produces seems undeniable. If it were not, the plant would not be stimulated to grow. Neither Emerald BioAgriculture or the EPA will address this issue.

– That there will be residue left on crops has not been disputed by Emerald BioAgriculture. But no study of either the amount of that residue, or the least amount of processed free glutamic acid needed to cause a reaction in an MSG-sensitive person, has ever been done. “It should wash off” doesn’t mean it will wash off. “It seems unlikely that such a small amount would cause a reactions” doesn’t mean that a small amount will not cause a reaction or have long term health effects.

– Free glutamic acid is known to be toxic to the nervous system. But the neurotoxic effects that processed free glutamic acid will have on animals that consume the plants on which it is sprayed – effects over and above any effects caused by external glutamic acid residue – have never been evaluated. Neither are there data on the effects that spraying processed free glutamic acid will have on drinking water.

– Consider, also, that children are most at risk from the effects of processed free glutamic acid. Their undeveloped blood-brain barriers leave them most at risk from exposure to processed free glutamic acid. It has been repeatedly demonstrated that infant animals fed processed free glutamic acid when young develop neuroendocrine problems such as gross obesity, stunted growth, and reproductive disorders later in life, and that they also develop learning disabilities. Emerald BioAgriculture did not address that particular safety issue in its application to the EPA.

– No one knows how little glutamic acid is needed to kill a single brain cell or to trigger an adverse reaction.

– Free glutamic acid is a neurotransmitter. It causes nerves to fire, carrying nerve impulses throughout the nervous system.

– Free glutamic acid is a neurotoxin. Under certain circumstances, free glutamic acid will cause nerves to fire repeatedly, until they die.

– Processed free glutamic acid kills brain cells. The free glutamic acid ingested by laboratory animals that caused brain lesions and neuroendocrine disorders was very often given in the form of the food ingredient “monosodium glutamate.” “Monosodium glutamate” is the name of a particular food additive. Processed free glutamic acid is the reactive component in “monosodium glutamate,” just as processed free glutamic acid is a reactive component in AuxiGro.

The glutamate industry research done in the 1970s that was submitted to the EPA by the Auxein Corporation, that pretended to find that processed free glutamic acid is “safe,” has been long refuted by independent scientists. Indeed, at the present time, neuroscientists attempting to develop drugs to block the toxic effects of free glutamic acid are using processed free glutamic acid to selectively kill certain kinds of brain cells.

– Processed free glutamic acid causes neuroendocrine disorders in maturing animals that ingest processed free glutamic acid early in life.

– Processed free glutamic acid causes learning disorders in maturing animals that ingest processed free glutamic acid early in life.

– Processed free glutamic acid crosses the placental barrier and causes learning disabilities in animal offspring of dams that ingest it.

– Processed free glutamic acid has access to the brain through the blood-brain barrier, which is not impervious to the unregulated flow of processed free glutamic acid. The blood-brain barrier is immature at birth and may continue to develop up to puberty. In certain areas called the circumventricular organs, the blood barrier is never impervious to the unregulated flow of free glutamic acid. In addition, the blood-brain barrier is easily damaged by such events as high fever, a blow to the head, drug use, stroke, ingestion of processed free glutamic acid, and the normal process of aging.

– The National Institutes of Health recognize glutamic acid as being associated with addiction, stroke, epilepsy, degenerative disorders such as Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s disease, and ALS, brain trauma, neuropathic pain, schizophrenia, anxiety, and depression.

– For years, free glutamic acid has been produced and used in food additives with names such as monosodium glutamate, sodium caseinate, and hydrolyzed soy protein. In some people, the processed free glutamic acid in food additives causes adverse reactions that include migraine headache, asthma, arrhythmia, tachycardia, nausea and vomiting, depression, and disorientation. The processed free glutamic acid in prescription and non-prescription drugs, food supplements, and cosmetics can also cause adverse reactions.

There are badly flawed industry-sponsored studies that have pretended to find that processed free glutamic acid does not cause adverse reactions. Inappropriate procedures used by the glutamate industry have included limiting subjects to people virtually guaranteed not to be sensitive to processed free glutamic acid, and/or using processed free glutamic acid or other similarly reactive substances in placebos as well as in test material. The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has based its claim that processed free glutamic acid causes only mild and transitory reactions on those badly flawed industry-sponsored studies.

– Even the EPA admits that the food additive called “monosodium glutamate” causes adverse reactions.

– Even the FDA admits that the food additive “monosodium glutamate” contains processed free glutamic acid.
<>– Even the FDA admits that many consumers refer to all free glutamic acid as “MSG.”

The EPA’s approvals of use of MSG in agriculture are simple, straightforward, and in violation of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act

In reviewing the application of Auxein Corporation (now Emerald BioAgriculture) for use of processed free glutamic acid in a spray to be applied to crops as they grow, the EPA failed to conform to the requirements of the Federal Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act, which require, in part, that the EPA review any proposed action for validity, completeness, reliability, and relationship to human risk. The EPA also ignored Executive Order 13045 which requires government agencies to consider available information concerning the variability of the sensitivities of major identifiable subgroups of consumers, including infants and children. For example, Auxein Corporation sent the EPA 14 industry-sponsored toxicological studies from the literature, all done in the 1970’s, but failed to mention hundreds of studies in the literature that refuted those 14 studies. Auxein Corporation even failed to send the EPA independent studies that appeared in the same book(s) as the industry-sponsored studies sent to the EPA. For example, although processed free glutamic acid causes brain lesions and neuroendocrine disorders in infant animals, this special hazard faced by infants was ignored by Auxein Corporation. It would appear that Auxein Corporation restricted its consideration of “available information” to information made available by the glutamate industry; and the EPA, even after having been sent abstracts from other “available information,” has not challenged the Auxein Corporation applications. A more complete discussion of the shortcomings of the EPA approvals granted to Auxein Corporation has been submitted to the EPA.

Questions about the safety of spraying processed free glutamic acid on plants and into the environment have been raised by the Truth in Labeling Campaign and by individual consumers. The EPA has refused to address those concerns. The EPA, and, in particular, EPA spokesperson Dr. Janet Andersen, has failed to respond to allegations that in approving the spraying of processed free glutamic acid, the EPA failed to consider the reliability, validity, and completeness of the Auxein Corporation application or comply with Executive Order 13045 entitled Protection of Children from Environmental Health Risks and Safety Risks, except to say that the EPA had complied with executive order 13045. Moreover, while responding to letters that asked direct questions of the EPA, Andersen failed to respond to most, if not all, of the direct questions contained in those letters.

AuxiGro, the first MSG-laced plant “growth enhancer” to hit the market, has been approved for spraying on every crop we know of, with no restrictions on the amount of processed free glutamic acid (MSG) that may remain in and/or on crops when brought to market. Even before consumers had an inkling that crops were being sprayed, the Truth in Labeling Campaign received reports that MSG-sensitive consumers had gotten sick from head lettuce and potatoes.

Federal Register notices chronicling the application and approval of processed free glutamic acid are available on the Web via GPO Access, the Federal Register, through: http://www.gpoaccess.gov/fr/index.html. Application for approval of use of AuxiGro was made to the EPA in 1997. Testing of the product was also approved in that year, and many of the test crops sprayed with AuxiGro were brought to market without notifying consumers. Glutamic acid was granted an exemption from establishment of a tolerance limit in January, 1998. AuxiGro was also approved for use on a number of crops in January, 1998, and approved for use on other crops later. No announcement of these approvals was made in the Federal Register.

Due to a technical glitch in the system, the glutes came to need one more approval to make their California registrations work. The glutes were asking for AuxiGro to be approved for use as a fungicide in California, but the EPA had only approved AuxiGro for use as a pesticide produce or plant growth enhancer. And when application was made for this addition to their approvals, the application was brought to our attention; and the Truth in Labeling Campaign filed a formal protest to this approval of AuxiGro. The Formal Objection of the Truth in Labeling Campaign was filed on August 16, 2001 with the EPA.

By law, formal objections filed in a timely manner must be responded to within six months. Also, by law (we were told) even though the Final Rule had not been promulgated, this additional use of AuxiGro would be considered approved unless and until the EPA determined that it should be otherwise. In July, 2004, we received a conference call from Dr. Andersen and a number of other EPA players, including an EPA lawyer — a “courtesy call” telling us that our objections had been discounted and that the Final Rule allowing use of AuxiGro as a fungicide would be published shortly in the Federal Register.

What’s wrong at the EPA?

Neither the EPA nor Janet Andersen, Ph.D., director of the Biopesticides and Pollution Prevention Division (BPPD), are stupid. Rather, all evidence would appear to suggest that the EPA, which is charged with protecting the health of Americans, says it is protecting the health of Americans, when in fact the EPA acts to protect the bottom line of big business. Don’t think for a moment that MSG is the only toxin unleashed on the American public by the EPA. Let the words “methyl parathion” and “DDT” jog your memory.
The EPA, in granting the chemical referred to as “L-glutamic acid” an exemption from the requirement of a tolerance for residues of “L-glutamic acid” on all food commodities when applied/used in accordance with good agricultural practices (thereby allowing unrestricted amounts of processed free glutamic acid (MSG) residue to remain in and on any and all food crops that come under the EPA’s jurisdiction) violated Section 408(c)(2)(A)(i), Section 408(c)(2)(ii), Section 408(c)(2)(B), and Section 408(b)(2)(D) of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act.

Neither “L-Glutamic Acid and Gamma Aminobutyric Acid; Exemptions from the Requirement of a Tolerance; Final Rule” (Federal Register June 21, 2001) nor “Glutamic Acid; Pesticide Tolerance Exemption; Final Rule” (Federal Register January 7, 1998), which preceded it, met the criteria established by law for granting exemptions from the restriction of a tolerance.
How did spokesperson Andersen excuse the fact that the EPA approved processed free glutamic acid for use in an EPA approved spray? First, said Andersen, the free glutamic acid used in the spray is naturally occurring, and it’s 99.3 per cent pure pharmaceutical grade L-glutamic acid. Yet, in admitting that the free glutamic acid in AuxiGro is not 100 per cent pure L-glutamic acid, and that it is pharmaceutical grade, Andersen contradicted herself, and actually made the point that 1) if the free glutamic acid used in AuxiGro were truly natural, it wouldn’t be “pharmaceutical grade;” and 2) if the free glutamic acid used in AuxiGro were truly natural it would be 100 per cent, not 99.3 per cent pure L-glutamic acid.

Andersen said something else very interesting. She said that the EPA is well aware of the fact that MSG causes adverse reactions. However, when Andersen used the term “MSG” she was referring to the one food ingredient called “monosodium glutamate,” and not to the free glutamic acid in “monosodium glutamate” that causes adverse reactions. Failure to define terms, as Anderson did (and does) so handily, is both deceptive and misleading.

What Andersen did is very clever. What she said makes no sense at all. No one has ever claimed that the processed free glutamic acid in AuxiGro comes out of a box labeled “monosodium glutamate.” So for her to say it doesn’t, is meaningless. On the other hand, the claim has been made that the free glutamic acid in AuxiGro will cause the same brain lesions, neuroendocrine disorders, adverse reactions and other diverse disease conditions that are caused by the free glutamic acid in “monosodium glutamate” and the other food additives that contain processed free glutamic acid. That claim is true, but Andersen does not address it. How do you refute someone who ignores legitimate questions and spews out irrelevant statements as though they pertained to your legitimate questions? You don’t. The EPA defense of its approval of use of processed free glutamic acid in plant “growth enhancers” and its registration of AuxiGro has two parts to it: 1) ignoring those who question EPA actions, and 2) making the irrelevant statement that AuxiGro does not contain MSG (monosodium glutamate).

Neither Andersen nor anyone else at the EPA ever addressed the criticism that approvals given by the EPA to allow the use of free glutamic acid and the product AuxiGro were inappropriate.
The EPA, which approved the used of processed free glutamic acid in plant “growth enhancers,” made a grievous error. But instead of recognizing and remedying that error once it was pointed out to them, the EPA began a cover-up. That cover-up included use of ambiguous words and phrases, half-truths, and downright lies told to consumers. The cover-up continued (and continues still) with a variation of those ambiguous words and phrases, half-truths, and downright lies told to legislators who inquire about spraying MSG into the environment.

You might find the Emerald BioAgriculture sales literature interesting

Sales literature promoting AuxiGro was once found on their Web site, but is now long gone. While Federal Register notices included the fact that there is processed free glutamic acid (MSG) in AuxiGro, the sales literature from Auxein Corporation did not mention the fact that their product contains free glutamic acid until the Truth in Labeling Campaign began to broadcast that information. In November, 1999, Auxein added deceptive, misleading, and untrue statements in an elaboration of its Product Page, wherein they essentially make the untrue assertion that the glutamic acid used in AuxiGro is chemically and biologically identical to that found in plants and animals.

Sales literature did (on September 12, 2000), however, contain the following:

“PRECAUTIONARY STATEMENTS

HAZARDS TO HUMAN AND DOMESTIC ANIMALS – CAUTION”

If you think you might be reacting to AuxiGro sprayed on crops, you might want to try to (contact Emerald BioAgriculture (formerly Auxein Corporation) at the addresses that follow. (A friend recently told us that he tried to contact them by e-mail, but his e-mail was returned unopened.) By law, the company is required to forward reports of adverse reactions to the EPA. You might want to ask the EPA if Emerald BioAgriculture did so.

Evidence of poison

Fiona Macleod
08 March 2007 11:59

A Limpopo medical doctor has documented a string of physical abnormalities — including
breasts on a five-year-old girl — that he believes are directly linked to the unregulated
use of agricultural chemicals.

Dr Johan Minnaar (44) has produced evidence of serious illnesses and disorders among his
patients in Groblersdal, where commercial farmers are spraying large amounts of
pesticides on crops.

Horrific cases include teenage boys temporarily “growing breasts” during spraying
seasons, miscarriages, partial facial paralysis, cancers and ear malfunctions. Many of his
patients suffer from milder poisoning symptoms, such as asthma, sinusitis, headaches,
dizziness and depression.

Minnaar, who has been practising as a doctor in Groblersdal since 1997, took the unusual
step of coming forward with his evidence after unsuccessful attempts to get government
and regulatory authorities to intervene.

He said: “Groblersdal is surrounded by farms growing mostly citrus and grapes, but also
cotton, vegetables and maize. Throughout the year there is constant crop spraying with
pesticides containing organophosphates and carbamates. No one has informed the
community what pesticides are being used, even though the law states people must be
notified before spraying.”

Minnaar started investigating after realising that symptoms he had experienced over six
years followed a pattern.

“I experienced chronic fatigue, nausea, muscle aches and pains, skin rashes and arthritis,
particularly from August till November, when there is a noticeable increase in the spraying.
On investigation, it became clear that other people had these symptoms at the same time.”

Last August, he became so ill that he had to stay at home for two weeks. His wife and
three children also showed symptoms. He began regularly testing his and his spouse’s
blood and the tests showed they were exposed to organophosphates and carbamate
pesticides.

Minnaar laid complaints with the registrar of the national agriculture department, the
water affairs department and the labour and health departments of the Limpopo
government. He also tackled the farmers, chemical companies and crop sprayers.

The spraying continued and, on two days in February this year, large amounts of
carbamate were released during the aerial spraying of citrus orchards. Residents were not
warned beforehand. Among those who later showed signs of poisoning were pupils of two
schools located in the orchards.

Minnaar said pupils regularly played on the sports fields during spraying. The teenage
boys who had consulted him about “growing breasts” in the spraying seasons attended the
schools.

In late January, a woman brought a five-year-old girl who had developed breasts to his
consulting rooms. Minnaar suspected it could be linked to poisoning and referred her case
to Limpopo government officials, who he met two days later.

“As with many patients, she had no access to medical facilities or funds. The authorities
undertook to get her medical testing and treatment, but we’ve heard nothing,” he said.

According to Professor Leslie London of the University of Cape Town’s health sciences
faculty, premature puberty and other hormonal abnormalities are symptoms of
contamination by pesticides containing “endocrine disruptors”.

A 2005 study of girls in Mexican farming areas, titled Altered Breast Development in Girls,
indicated that pesticides could affect breast development and lead to early puberty.

Said London: “It has been shown that endocrine disruptors can also affect sexual
maturation and differentiation. A study in Sri Lanka of a pesticide called endosulfan found
that boys living in villages below cashew nut plantations sprayed with endosulfan had
impaired sexual maturity and other reproductive impairments.”

London researched aerial crop spraying around Groblersdal in 2005, with a focus on risks
to small farmers rather than health impacts. Last year, he published research on possible
links between aerial organophosphate spraying in the Northern Cape and Guillain-Barré
Syndrome, a neurological disorder.

“The problem of rural towns affected by agricultural application of pesticides is
ubiquitous,” he said. “Present regulatory and safety management methods really don’t
address this problem sufficiently.

“I think there is a view that if you choose to live in the country, you should accept this as a
way of life. That is a societal value decision, not a matter of science.”

The health department’s directorate of environmental health has announced plans to
launch a chemical safety programme in Groblersdal at the end of March. According to its
draft concept document, “the aim is to launch the programme to inform provinces that
national [government] is willing to assist them in the management of chemicals”.

The draft programme identifies schoolchildren, women, farmers and farmworkers, shack
dwellers, informal traders and manufacturers as the “most vulnerable communities in
municipalities that lack capacity to properly and satisfactorily deal with chemical safety
issues”.

South Africa is a signatory to international conventions aimed at promoting chemical
safety, and the labour ministry said in October that chemical safety was “high on the
minister’s agenda”. But crop spraying is a highly technical industry, and pinpointing
contamination is difficult.

London said it was almost impossible for applicators in planes to control the drift of
chemical sprays. “Aerial application has been shown in some studies to drift more than
2km, even in the absence of strong winds.”

European countries strictly regulate the industry through buffer zones around residential
areas and warning systems, he added.

Gerrit van Vuuren, an aerial application consultant at Croplife South Africa, blamed mist-
spraying of crops on the ground. “It is absolutely wrong to conclude that because there is
a yellow aircraft spraying agrichemicals in an area, it must the reason for ill health effects,”
he said.

Van Vuuren said mist-blowers apply more than 1 000 litres of spray mixture a hectare,
compared to 30 to 40 litres in the case of aerial spraying. They also blow a significant
volume of the spray higher than 6m into the air.

“A couple of mist-blowers spraying thousands of litres of spray mixtures at night are less
visible than an aircraft spraying a couple of hundred litres in the morning.”

He said it was up to farmers to notify inhabitants and issue warnings. They were also
supposed to ensure no one entered their fields during spraying.

The environmental health unit at the Elias Motsoaledi municipality, under which
Groblersdal falls, said it was “busy investigating the usage of pesticides being sprayed
from aeroplanes, as nuisances do occur from these activities”.

But Minnaar is frustrated by government promises to investigate. “For all practical
purposes, the supposed controls are not working. While they keep promising to sort it out,
we are getting poisoned,” he said.

Monday, October 13th, 2008

UPDATE: Rally a Huge Success!

See: http://vitaminlawyerhealthfreedom.blogspot.com/2008/10/no-forced-vaccination-rally.html

Tell your State Representatives that you want strong exemptions from mandatory vaccination (Action Item works for you no matter which State you live in):

http://salsa.democracyinaction.org/o/568/t/1128/campaign.jsp?campaign_KEY=21833

————–
This is the latest announcement about this Thursday’s Pro Health Freedom Rally in Trenton. Please forward this information to anyone in the region who can get to this important show of solid support for health freedom.

One Thousand People Expected To Rally For Vaccination Choice
at the State House in Trenton, NJ on Thursday, October 16, 2008 at 12:00 p.m.

NJ Assemblywoman Charlotte Vandervalk, Board-certified Pediatrician Dr. Lawrence Palevsky and National Vaccine Information Center co-founder Barbara Loe Fisher, will join NJ parents and professionals at a rally in Trenton for vaccination choice. Nearly one thousand people are expected, requiring Trenton to close the streets to accommodate the crowds.

The speakers represent a cross-section of society including medical doctors, nurses, chiropractors, scientists, clergy, educators, soldiers, politicians, journalists, autism activists, homeschoolers and many parents. The NJ Coalition for Vaccination Choice (NJCVC) invites you to rally with them by the steps of the State House, outside Gov. Corzine’s office.

The group opposes the four new vaccine mandates including an annual flu shot for children ages 5 and under, required for daycare and pre-school. NJCVC supports the passage of bill A260/S1071, a conscientious exemption to mandatory immunization which will permit parents to select all, some or no vaccinations for their children. A form of this parental right already exists in 19 other US states. All legislators will be in Trenton for a Special Session. Fox News plans to cover the event. Fox aired a live segment on vaccination choice in NJ on October 9 (see http://tinyurl.com/3nmgqb and http://tinyurl.com/45ca5y).

Press urged to cover this high visual impact event: signs, banners, balloons, photos, children, music, personal stories, legislator appreciation ceremony. Rally Information: Rain or Shine, Thursday, October 16, 2008, Noon- 2 pm, 125 West State Street, Trenton, NJ, www.njvaccinationchoice.org for more rally details.

Media Release: End All Forced Vaccination

Trenton, October 16, 2008 – Natural Solutions Foundation participates in the Rally for Vaccination Choice at the Statehouse in Trenton, New Jersey today. Through its www.HealthFreedomUsa.org web site, the Foundation is the largest international ‘netroots’ Health Freedom alliance in the world.

Foundation trustee and life-long New Jersey resident Ralph Fucetola JD delivered a special message to the Rally from Foundation President Maj. Gen. Bert Stubblebine (USA, ret) and Medical Director Rima E. Laibow, MD. The message stated,

“Natural Solutions Foundation supports the efforts of people around the world who oppose forced vaccination for any purpose. As an educational, nongovernmental organization we seek to inform legislators and decision makers about the dangers of vaccine induced disease and the necessity of a Universal Right to Vaccine Exemptions, including strong religious, philosophical and medical exemptions for all vaccines. We congratulate New Jersians on their efforts to stop the uninsurable risks of mandated vaccines.”

Counsel Fucetola continued, “The fact that the insurance industry, our society’s experts in risk, will not insure vaccines is a very telling fact. Without the special Federal Vaccine Injury Compensation Program (VICP) tax that every person who is mandated to buy vaccines is forced to pay, there could be no mandated vaccines at all. Public companies cannot invest in uninsurable risks, so Congress, ever supine to the interests of Big Pharma, mandated that the victims have to pay a tax to guarantee pharmaceutical industry vaccine profits. So far, over two billion tax dollars has been paid out to the families of children maimed and killed by vaccines. This must stop now!”

The Natural Solutions Foundation, along with other health freedom advocates, declared, a year ago, that ending forced vaccinations must be a top priority of all freedom activists. The Tiburon Statement, named after the California town where it was written at an emergency meeting of nongovernmental organizations, can be found at: https://www.staging.healthfreedomusa.com/index.php?p=460 – it states:

Convening for Health Freedom of Choice, Protecting our Children from Forced Vaccination
Health and Freedom leaders and advocates, meeting in an emergency strategic session at Tiburon, California and electronically, declare –

– We collectively call upon Congress and State Legislatures to take immediate steps to restore and guarantee freedom of choice in vaccination and health care and to protect our children and us against forced treatments.

– The moral imperative embodied in the World Medical Association Declaration of Helsinki forbids involuntary medical treatment or experimentation in the absence of fully informed, voluntary consent.

– We have a right to legal protection against mandatory inoculations of our children, such as those which occurred on November 17, 2007 in Prince George’s County Court House, enforced by police.

– Taxpayers have paid nearly $2 billion to compensate families for the death or disability of their children due to vaccination.

We, the undersigned, call upon the Congress of the United States and legislators of each State to adopt the strongest possible legal protections to ensure health care freedom of choice, including the universal right to vaccination exemptions.

Mandatory Vaccination in Schools – How Did We Get There?

Sunday, October 12th, 2008

Stop Mandatory Vaccination. Take all of the following Action Steps:

The Natural Solutions Foundation has been fighting mandatory vaccination, vaccination disinformation (e.g., vaccines are safe and effective) and all other compulsory health intrusions, like restrictions on free speech, unlabeled GMO Franken Foods, since its inception.
Here’s what we are doing about it:

1. We’ve created reliable information sources you can access and you can trust:

* Our highly informative Vaccination Exemption eBook (https://www.staging.healthfreedomusa.com/index.php?page_id=699) gives you information you simply will not find anywhere else
* The vigorous Yahoo! No-Forced-Vaccination Forum, http://groups.yahoo.com/group/no-forced-vaccination/join, now just under a thousand advocates strong
* We publish numerous articles and updates on vaccine-related topics in our free Health Freedom eAlerts (to which people can subscribe on our site) where we continually update information on legal and legislative actions designed to remove your health freedom options. Join now: https://www.staging.healthfreedomusa.com/index.php?page_id=187
* We serve as a clearinghouse for actions and rallys you can take part in like the October 16 No Forced Vaccination Rally in Trenton, NJ (https://www.staging.healthfreedomusa.com/index.php?p=1166) against the invasive and probably unconstitutional proposed legislation to force home schooled children to comply with the Superintendent of School’s chosen vaccine schedule or be forced back into public schools.
* We support health freedom options for parents and others concerning what goes into their bodies and what happens to them

2. We create and follow through on strong, effective grass roots/net roots and legal actions

* Join the Natural Solutions Foundation’s ground-breaking FTC Citizen’s Petition which you can join here (RALPH, WE NEED AN ACTION ITEM ON THIS- RIMA), a legal action against the Federal Trade Commission AND US Government to compel the FTC to
o prohibit false and misleading advertising or statements that vaccines are safe and effective
o Hold hearings on whether vaccines are, in fact, either safe, or effective, or both
o Force vaccine manufactures, government agencies, doctors, school personnel and others to cease and desist conveying information across state lines which states or implies that vaccines are safe and effective until they are proven to be so
* Urge your legislator to become a co-sponsor of Denis Kucinich’s 3 bill suite to demand safety evaluation and labeling of all GMO foods, including the newly approved “Franken Meats”.

Mandatory Vaccination has a long history which is not generally known, but deserves to be understood.
Crunchy Mama wrote the following excellent article posted on Exploring Vaccines. It provides a good overview of the process by which States have come to the point where they are now requiring as many as 78 vaccines by the time a child reaches 15 years of age, starting at birth. The same Hepatitis B vaccine, by the way, that infants are given within 12 hours of birth is literally under indictment in France where the manufacturer has been charged with homicide because of the number of infants who have died following this injection. No such reservations seem to deter the CDC Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) from advising this same, and other highly questionable vaccinations.
Once the ACIP makes its recommendations, States frequently adopt these recommendation and make the requirements mandatory for school entry.
In New Jersey, the issue has been pressed further with a new law now making its way through the legislature which would require home schooled children to meet the same mandatory vaccination schedule approved by the superintendent of schools, not the child’s parents or physician in order to be permitted to continue as a home schooled child.
This unconstitutional and irrational move, from a State with a significant number of vaccine manufacturer headquarters is, we believe, a portent of things to come unless the people of the US make a concerted outcry against this imposition of pharmaceutical profits on personal and religious rights.
The religious exemption is being made more difficult to attain

It is important to note that currently the trend to accept ALL recommendations made by the ACIP is gaining momentum and only vigorous activity by each of us can stop this trend which is damaging our health AND our freedom.
Did you know, by the way, that children are not immunized until they reach the age of 2 years in the UK? Or that vaccinations are widely spaced in Japan? In neither country are children dying of the diseases that supposedly are prevented by vaccination? Perhaps that should suggest that it is hygeine, not vaccination, which prevents these diseases. Perhaps it should also suggest that the Pharmaceutical Industry has a (literally speaking) death grip on US society. Properly used drugs are the leading cause of death in the US, according to the esteemed Journal of the American Medical Association and other journals of equal statue. But we continue to allow, encourage and often require their use. Vaccines, of course, are a particularly contentious and, to my mind, dangerous class of drugs sold into the market place not only through propaganda, but through legislative compulsion.
It is no news that all vaccines are contaminated by dangerous heavy metals including mercury and aluminum as well as fluoride and neurotoxins like formaldehyde, MSG, aspartame, viral particles, including stealth viruses, and cancer causing viruses and stray particles. It is no secret that human (including fetal tissue) materials like DNA are contaminants of viruses, along with dangerous chemicals like Polysorbate 80, linked to infertility.
It is less well know that the adjuvants, which are basically immune irritants, put into vaccines to increase the amount of antibody formation produced by vaccines which, without the adjuvants would not produce enough antibody response to be justified, are themselves serious dangers to health. For example, squalene is more or less harmless if breathed, applied to the skin or swallowed. But as the disastrous Vaccine A experimenets on our troops in the Gulf War have tragically demonstrated, once injected, squalene is the source of immense immune overload and finally, immune collapse in a devastating set of problems lumped together under the term “Gulf War Syndrome”. Most modern vaccines include adjuvants, many of which are secret ingredients, but often include squalene.
Further concern centers around secret ingredients which are not even trade secrets: they are depopulation agents. The World Health Organization (WHO) was recently convicted by the Supreme Court of the Philippines of sterilizing at least 3 million women through the use of a vaccine intentionally contaminated with a human hormone which is necessary for reproduction in women. By including it in vaccines, this hormone causes the body to produce antibodies to it which renders the woman unable to carry a baby although her ability to conceive is not impaired.
According to WHO records, this same depopulation strategy was used in vaccines given to African women starting in 1985 to “eliminate 150 million EXCESS sub Saharan Africans [Emphasis added by me to a quote from WHO documents – REL]. It has been used via a “special” tetanus vaccine series of 5 shots generously given to poor women in South and Central America, Thailand, Africa and elsewhere. The WHO maintains that for the planet to achieve “sustainability” it must have 80-90% fewer people on it than it does today. Its vaccine fertility control task forces for the control of male and female fertility have been operating since 1974, the same year that then-Secretary of State Henry Kissinger prepared Memorandum 200 for then-President Nixon stating that depopulation had to be the US first priority in Foreign Policy, beginning with [note, beginning with- REL] the third world.
As an interesting side note, it is important to consider that a vaccine rendering young women sterile, supposedly for 1 year, is being sold in the US as a birth control option. No one knows if the results are, in fact, induced sterility for one year or not. Life-long sterility could be the result. Time will tell.
This same contamination of vaccines with Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (HCG), the female hormone necessary to carry a baby to term, is intentionally included in the vaccine everypregnant Thai tribal woman is forced to take. Without it, she is told, her baby cannot receive the important identity card. Once she receives the shot from the Department of Health worker, she will inevitably miscarry, no matter how far along the pregnancy is.
Evidence which I find compelling suggests strongly that material designed to drive the immune system, specifically the CD-4 cells, to collapse, opening the way for a host of opportunistic diseases (this induced condition is known by the collective term HIV/AIDS).

The manufacturer of the Hepatitis B vaccine, the same ones given to our children and health care providers, is currently on trial for homicide in France because of the number of deaths caused in infants and others because of known contaminants. Due to the ever-corporate friendly protective nature of the relationship of the US Congress and the FDA, vaccine-injured people in the US cannot hold doctors or manufacturers accountable and cannot sue them for the damages incurred. On a positive note, that wall of non-protection has been breeched in a Georgia case in which a Federal judge has ruled that parents may sue a vaccine manufacturer for damage to their child.
This landmark case may open a door which regulation and legislation has shut for Americans, as the consent by the CDC in the Vaccine Injury Special Court system that a 9 year old autistic girl was vaccine injured because of a supposedly rare mitochondrial disorder and is thus entitled to compensation for her care may open a small doorway for vaccine injured children.
The bigger door, however, is to make sure that no one IS vaccine injured or, if they chose to run the risk of such injuries, that they will be free to do so in the full knowledge of the risks incurred by submitting to vaccination.
Currently, the US has announced its determination to vaccinate very man, woman and child in the US with an Avian Flu vaccine made in China by Sanofi-Pasteur and loaded into individual dose syringes in Pennsylvania. This vaccine was approved by the FDA in the complete absence of any formal clinical trials (although apparently informal ones have been conducted in Poland where the impact of the vaccine on the over 300 vagrants vaccinated include 11 immediate deaths and hundreds of reactions so severe that the 2 physicians and 4 nurses involved in the “trial” are now accused of homicide. The Minister of Health of Poland has said that none of the accused should ever be permitted to practice medicine or nursing again. This same vaccine is, according to our information, the stuff waiting for the compliant arms of “every man, woman and child in the United States”.
Further information suggests that not only the Avian Flu virus itself, but the very vaccines designed to “protect” us against it (although the science behind ANY vaccine protecting us from anything is worse than questionable) has also been weaponized.
Two biochemistry/microbiology researchers were brutally tortured and murdered on June 29,208 in London, England. Their computer was stolen shortly before their murder. These researchers were, according to information released recently, murdered by a British-Mossad assassination team now in custody in the UK. The researchers had uncovered information leading to the conclusion that not only was the Avian Flu virus itself weaponized with genetic material from the 1918 pandemic “Spanish Flu” (which was not Spanish at all, but created in the US as the first, and most successful Bio Weapon of all time on orders of then-President Teddy Roosevelt and injected into US Soldiers in Kansas before they were sent to Spain for “training” and exposure to mutation-inducing poison gases)but the vaccines supposedly being created to protect the population from the approaching pandemic Avian Flu had also been weaponized to produce a deadly disease upon injection.
Their horrific murders and the subsequent apprehension of their professional killers was covered by the European press, but totally ignored by all US media. The story of their discoveries was also totally neglected by the US media.
The Natural Solutions Foundation’s press release was censored by the media outlet we attempted to use to bring this attention to the light of day and request substantiation of this vitally important information by the media outlet which published it in September, 2008.
Mandatory vaccination for mumps was imposed on college students in Maine last December 11, 2007. Students who were not vaccinated or chose to refuse vaccination were locked out of their dormitories, dining halls, libraries, student unions and classrooms when their key cards were inactivated. This happened on the same day that Health Canada withdrew approval for the same vaccine for use in children and adults because of its dangers. Students, whose tuition, room and board were already paid for, were denied access to instruction and shelter, food and resources in the winter time without notice.
Mandatory vaccination is now being recommended for college students, especially those in dorm, even though, as the article making this recommendation states, last year’s flu vaccine did not “cover” one of two viruses causing the flu. This year’s flu vaccine will supposedly contain 4 viruses in an attempt to avoid last year’s embarrassing failure by the CCDC and World Health Organization (WHO) to “guess” right in the spring before the flu season hit. Each year, these organizations decide what the offending virus is likely to be in the next flu season and authorize vaccines against those viruses which are then recommended (or mandated)as the “flu shot”. Last year, as often happens, the guess was wrong and the CDC announced that the vaccine was ineffective from 40-60% of the time.
Given that 94% of the flu vaccine available contained thimerisol (50% mercury by weight)as well as the usual toxins, and whatever else the vials might be hiding, and that both children and adults are susceptible to the toxic impact of these biological and chemical components, this tetravalent vaccination does not suggest any more safety than the previous ones, including the disastrous and deadly Swine Flu vaccine) offer.
New Jersey made headlines last November by announcing that it would require mandatory flu vaccination for all children in the state from age 6 months (2 shots in the first year) to age 18 plus meningococcus and Hepatitis B shots for all children in the state at various times in their school career.
Now this state, home to so many major pharmaceutical companies, has taken the mandatory vaccination thrust a step farther: all children, whether enrolled in school or home schooled, MUST receive the vaccines approved by the Superintendent of Schools for the child’s home district or be refused permission to stay in a home schooled environment.

Despite the total global absence of a pandemic strain of Avian Flu and despite excellent evidence that non toxic strategies like nanosilver ingestion and hygiene measures are sufficient to kill any Avian Flu virus yet identified, the thrust is toward untested, potentially very dangerous, and scientifically absurd vaccinations. These vaccines, however, carry a hefty price tag: the Sanofi-Pasteur vaccine, approved by the FDA on an “emergency basis” for a disease that does not exist, and slated for use in every person in the US, and approved in the absence of any formal trials, was purchased by the US Government for the hefty price of $15 per dose, or $1.5 billion dollars for 100 million doses. This vaccine shipment, the first of several if all Americans will receive at least one dose, gives the US government a tight exclusive on the vaccine preventing price cutting or competition: in its approval documentation, the fact that the vaccine cannot be sold to any agency or customer other than the US Government is stipulated.
This stipulation means that the ingredients are not listed, do not have to be listed, may not be listed on the package insert or elsewhere.
Americans were notified on July 23, 2008 by the FDA and on July 24, 2008 by the Department of Homeland Security, that the intention of the US Government is to vaccinate every person in the US with this vaccine “starting with those who want it”. Americans are well aware that Patriot Act I and II, BioShield I and II and BARDA all make mandatory vaccination a requirement to avoid involuntary internment and quarantine.
They are also well aware that hundreds of thousands of plastic coffins have been purchased by the US Government and are sitting in depots, including the one famously photographed in Georgia.
American know that every state in the country has passed a version of the Emergency Medical Powers Act which makes refusing treatment, especially vaccination, once a “Pandemic” has been declared by the governor of the state, a felony which, as such, can be punished by incarceration or internment.
They are well informed about the fact that the US Government is reported to have purchased at least one large tract of land in upstate New York for a mass burial site and that the UK has announced mass burial plans as well since cremation would, according to the estimates of the British Parliament, run up to 17 weeks behind deaths despite increased crematoria capacity building recently undertaken.
All this for a disease that does not yet exist.
Americans are also aware that US troops have been moved into place to control civil disruption, subdue unruly persons relocate persons as necessary in a permanent domestic duty deployment which began October 1, 2008. The 1st Battle Group of the 3rd Infantry has been placed under the permanent command of NorthCom, the Northern Command of the US Army. NorthCom signed a much hearalded agreement with the Canadian Military to allow Canadian troops access to US territory for the same reasons and US troops have been operating in Canada performing domestic duties since April, 2007.
This, of course, follows the integration of the US FDA, Canadian HealthCanada and Mexican Department of Health under the Trilateral Cooperation Charter in 2003, erasing further the sovereign powers and status of the United States.
So Americans are well aware of the vaccine threats lurking. They remember well the November, 2007 atrocity in which Prince George’s County imposed vaccination under the amused and watchful eye of a judge (who remarked that the crying children were “kind of cute”) on threat of imprisonment and fines for parents of unvaccinated children and re vaccinated 1100 children whose records it admitted it had lost but who were fully vaccinated. They also remember the interviews granted by State’s Attorney Glen Ivey, father of young children, who admitted that he would not allow his own children to receive the vaccines which were being administered under police and attack dog guard in the Court House that tragic November Saturday. Maryland is among the states which allow parents to file an exemption if they do not want their children to receive the vaccines offered. These parents, mostly poor, black (like Attorney Ivey) and uneducated, from the one of the poorest school districts in the nation, were not told of their option to refuse these vaccinations.
The Natural Solutions Foundation asks you to take effective and vigorous action by notifying your state and federal legislators that these compulsory vaccination precedents are not acceptable to you. Please take a moment to sign the Tiburon Declaration, which takes issue with compulsory drugging, including vaccination, and which will be presented to all US legislators when we have amassed enough signatures. Then please take another moment to take each of the action steps listed above if you have not already done so, to raise the voice of the net roots loud and clear so that legislators understand that they are playing with your health freedom and that you do not like that and will not allow that to continue.

Let’s stop this right now!

How School Vaccine Mandates Came About

In 1809, the first state law mandating vaccination was enacted in Massachusetts. By 1855, Massachusetts became the first state to enact a school vaccination requirement for Smallpox. By the twentieth century, roughly half of the states had enacted vaccine mandates for children before they could enter school; however, they were not strictly enforced. The Diphtheria vaccine was introduced in the 1920’s, but only a few states made the Diphtheria vaccine compulsory for two decades. By the early 1950’s, with the licensure of the Diphtheria and Tetanus vaccines, state and local health departments began more aggressive vaccination programs. When the Salk Polio vaccine was licensed in 1955, only a few states passed laws that mandated it for school entry. The polio vaccine also led to federal funding of state and local vaccine programs. In 1962, the Vaccination Assistance Act established a federally coordinated program that would supply funds for the purchase and administration of childhood vaccines. By 1963, several vaccines were mandated, but there was no enforcement by all states. The New York City health commissioner opposed making the Polio vaccine mandatory in 1965.

Compulsory vaccination made some radical changes by the late 1960’s and 1970’s. In 1970 a nationwide rubella vaccine campaign was launched. It was recommended by the Department of Health for all 11-13 year old girls. Then the CDC moved on and began leading a nationwide effort to eradicate Measles. In 1968, only a half the states required one or more vaccines for school entry. By the early 1970’s, the Measles Initiative program was started. By 1976-77, health officials strictly enforced the vaccine mandate for Measles under the Childhood immunization Initiative. Its purpose was to raise vaccination coverage in children to 90% by 1979. The largest component of this initiative was to enact and enforce school vaccination mandates.

By 1981, all fifty states mandated Measles vaccine along with all others for school entry. Nearly all states had school vaccination mandates covering Kindergarten through 12th grade levels, and mandates for licensed preschools. State mandated vaccine laws specified which vaccines would be required and the number of doses. Some states authorized the public health boards to designate which vaccines and doses would be required. States were not uniform in what vaccines they require, or how many doses. This still holds true today. In 1980, the state of Wisconsin passed the No-immunization-No School law and was enforced by March 1981. Other states soon followed.

In 1998–1999, all but four states (Louisiana, Michigan, South Carolina, and West Virginia) enacted mandates which covered Kindergarten through 12th grade. In 48 states, with the exception of Iowa and West Virginia, daycare mandates and Head Start program mandates were enacted. Thirty states mandated some requirements for college entrance. School vaccine mandates included:

All 50 states required: Diphtheria toxoid, Polio, Measles and Rubella vaccines

49 states required: Tetanus toxoid

46 states required: Mumps

44 states required: Pertussis

28 states required: Hepatitis B

During the late 1980’s and early 1990’s, state vaccine laws were tightened to make religious and philosophical exemptions harder to obtain. By the end of the 1990’s, the trend was reversed. Religious and Philosophical exemptions were made less restrictive through rewriting exemption clauses.

The Task Force on Community Preventive Services is an independent body carrying out evidence-based reviews of the literature to assess the claims that preventive interventions directed to populations are effective. One of the 17 interventions reviewed for vaccine-preventable diseases was mandatory vaccination requirements. The Task Force found that sufficient evidence existed to demonstrate the effectiveness of these requirements in increasing vaccine coverage, thereby reducing disease incidence, and so recommended their use.

U.S. Congress passed the National Childhood Vaccine Injury Act in 1986 and the Vaccine Compensation Amendments in 1987 and 1995. The NCVIA establishes a compensation system for people who may be injured by routine vaccinations. The National Childhood Vaccine Injury Act of 1986, Public Law 99-660, was signed by President Reagan in November 1986, however, it did not contain a funding mechanism to enable the compensation system to operate. In 1987, Congress passed amendments to the law and developed a plan to fund the system, which comes from a surcharge on each mandatory vaccine. The main purpose of the law was to create safety provisions for the administration of vaccines to help prevent future vaccine injuries, to promote the improvement of existing vaccines and develop safer vaccines. Another element was to create a no-fault compensation system alternative to suing vaccine manufacturers and physicians on behalf of injured or deceased people from reactions to mandated vaccines. Children and/or adults injured or killed from these vaccines are divided into two categories; those who were damaged or killed before October 1, 1988 and those who were damaged or killed after that date. In 1990, the FDA and the CDC developed the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS), which allows public and private physicians to use one standard reporting form to report reactions.

Vaccine Tyranny Grows More Legs and Teeth In New Jersey
New Jersey is home to a large number of very wealthy and powerful pharmaceutical companies and it is clear that neither the governor nor the legislators of that state are willing to disappoint them in their quest for unlimited vaccination access to every man, woman and child in their reach.
Forget the fact that New Jersey’s autistic population already reaches astounding levels:

“Researchers in 14 states conducted the autism monitoring activities in demographically representative sections of their states, under the umbrella of a CDC-sponsored network called the Autism and Developmental Disabilities Monitoring Network, or ADDM. Walter Zahorodny, Ph.D., an assistant professor of pediatrics and psychiatry at the UMDNJ-New Jersey Medical School, was the lead researcher on the New Jersey portion of the ADDM network investigation.

The New Jersey monitoring covered Essex, Hudson, Union and Ocean counties. The autism spectrum disorder prevalence rates identified in those areas of New Jersey were higher than in other ADDM-surveyed states – 9.9 cases per 1,000 8-year-olds in 2000, and 10.6 cases per 1,000 8-year-olds in 2002. According to the new findings, New Jersey’s autism rate is the highest of the 14 states in the ADDM network.”

http://www.umdnj.edu/about/news_events/releases/07/r020807_CDCReleases_StudyofAutismRates.htm

Forget the fact that 94% of the available pediatric vaccination doses still contain mercury. Forget the fact that flu vaccines cause the symptoms of flu as side effects of the vaccination itself. Forget the fact that most epidemics occurs in fully vaccinated populations. Forget the fact that vaccines carry dangers far beyond mercury, aluminum hydroxide, formaldehyde, fluoride, MSG, aspartame, Polysorbate 80 (associated with infertility). Forget the fact that vaccines are routinely contaminated, according to the FDA and CDC, with stealth viruses, parts of human, animal and virus genetic materials, carcinogenic viruses and other potentially lethal debris.
Forget about the fact that parental rights should determine if a child is vaccinated. Forget about the fact that the State of New Jersey has decided that religious exemptions can only be granted if the child has NEVER had a vaccination in his life because they have decreed an “all or nothing” policy whose logic I have not yet been able to disect in order to make sense of it.
Just remember that the State of New Jersey knows that parents sometimes feel so strongly about their dangerous invasive vaccination policies that they will homeschool their children rather than subject them to the dangers, or religiously unacceptable, vaccines decried by the State.
And then, again, sometimes parents homeschool their children for completely different reasons but do not believe in, see the necesity for, or want vaccinations for their children.
Well, the State has other ideas. Not only must the curriculum meet the needs and whims of the Superintendent of the home district of the child, but the vaccination schedule that the Superintendent enforces (I’m sorry, I thought they were superintendents of education, not vaccination policy – I guess I got that wrong). Otherwise, the child is immediately sucked back into the school system – complete with vaccinations.
Consider what that means to a vaccine injured child. Consider what that means to freedom. Consider what that says about the onrush of the police state which owns your body and your child’s.
Ralph Fucetola, attorney and trustee of the Natural Solutions Foundation has this to say about the attack on home schoolers, health and freedom in his Vitaminlawyer blog on the subject:
NJ May Mandate Vaccines for Home schooled Children!
That’s right. NJ, even as we are fighting the Dietitian’s Monopoly Bill and seeking to secure protection from dangerous, mandated vaccinations, is planning another vaccine assault on our children.

Assembly Bill A3123, the anti-homeschooling bill introduced on September 28, 2008, among other evil provisions, would enact:

“1. Prior to the establishment of a home education program and annually thereafter… a parent or guardian shall submit to the superintendent of the resident school district a notarized letter registering his child in a home education program. The letter shall include … e. evidence that each student being registered has been immunized in accordance with the provisions of the State Sanitary Code…”

http://www.njleg.state.nj.us/2008/Bills/A3500/3123_I1.HTM

Privacy? Parental Rights? Religious Rights? Protection of our Children from Assault by the Uninsurable Risk of Vaccination… the Trenton Thugs continue the attack, so we must continue to defend our families!

Health Freedom is at risk yet again, and yet again, the attacks on freedom of choice are attacks on the lives of our loved ones.

The system is sick it needs a really big dose of freedom to recover!

2008 Presidential Campaign Questionnaire

The Natural Solutions Foundation has several hundred thousand people who have opted in to our email list and millions more who read our information when those people forward it to them. Our constituency has serious health care concerns and we would like to share your position on each of these issues with them. The following questions are being submitted to each of the presidential and vice presidential candidates. The natural solutions foundation will compile your responses and inform our supporters and their contacts about your answers (or lack thereof) to each question. In addition, we will issue a press release announcing the results. These questions cover the four issues our supporters have told us concern them the most.

The Natural Solutions Foundation, founded in 2004, is an international NGO (non governmental organization) active and registered in several countries and is a not for profit 501(c )(3) tax exempt organization in the United States.

We are the largest health freedom organization in the world. The mission of the Foundation is to discover, develop, demonstrate and disseminate natural solutions to the problems facing us and threatening our health and freedom, achieving and maintaining a healthy self, community and world. To do this, we seek to educate the President, Congress and decision makers as well as the general public.

1. International Harmonization of Health Freedom Policy: Codex Alimentarius

a. Do you support vigorous enforcement of the anti-harmonization act, 19 USC 3512, which forbids harmonization of our health freedoms with international restrictions, such as those represented by Codex Alimentarius (the world food code) despite US leadership at Codex in violating that statute domestically and globally?

Yes [ ] no [ ]

b. Do you support the health freedom of speech principles unanimously enacted by Congress with the Dietary Supplement Health and Education Act of 1994 (DSHEA) and currently threatened by both the Codex position on health claims and the attempted FDA restriction on truthful, scientifically supported health claims and information?

Yes [ ] no [ ]

c. Do you support HR 2117, “The Health Freedom Protection Act,” introduced by Congressman Ron Paul MD, that would mandate FDA approval of dietary supplement health claims for which scientific evidence exists?

2. National Policy Regarding Labeling Genetically Modified Organisms (GMOs).

The FDA takes the position that GMO products are deemed safe without testing, following a 1992 Executive Order to that effect and therefore holds that there is no reason to required truthful GMO labeling and that “GMO Free” labels will not be allowed. According to a New York Times / CBS poll in June 2008, 87% of Americans want GMO labeling and over fifty percent do not want to buy such products.

a. As president will you tell the FDA to stop preventing truthful GMO labeling?

Yes [ ] no [ ]

b. Do you support Congressman Kuchinich’s bill, HR 6636, “The Genetically Engineered Food Right To Know Act,” That would require mandatory labeling of all foods that contain or are produced with GM material?

Yes [ ] no [ ]

3. National Policy Regarding Safety of Genetically Modified Organisms (GMOs).

The FDA takes the position that GMO products are deemed safe without testing following a 1992 executive order to that effect and is prohibited from requiring or examining any safety studies after the initial, preliminary studies by the patent holders. Independent studies in the US and elsewhere make it clear that both the short term and long term effects of GMOs may be hazardous to unborn children, babies, and adults and may have disastrous impact on fertility and health.

a. As President will you tell the FDA to require, under the Precautionary Principle, rigorous scientific evidence of GMO safety?

Yes [ ] no [ ]

b. Do you support Congressman Kuchinich’s bill, HR 6637, “The Genetically Engineered Safety Act,” would require that GE foods follow a food safety review process.

Yes [ ] no [ ]

4. National Vaccination Policy: No Forced Vaccination

We do not believe that mandating the uninsurable risk of vaccination is ever justified, that it violates constitutionally guaranteed rights and we support the broadest medical, religious and philosophical exemptions from all mandated drugging.

a. As President, will you stop all federal funding for mandated vaccinations imposed on American families and will you stop all federal funding to states which impose such forced drugging and vaccinations on the people in their jurisdiction?

Yes [ ] no [ ]

We are deeply concerned that the states have been induced by the Federal CDC to pass legislation which we believe is both ill-advised and unconstitutional which forces citizens to submit to medical procedures which they may not agree with or accept on pain of felony charges and penalties, or loss of access to government schools or other government activities.

b. As President will you refuse to implement those presidential emergency actions necessary to impose the emergency medical powers acts passed by nearly all states, which make refusing mandatory vaccination or drugging a felony act once the governor of a state has declared a pandemic to be in effect?

Yes [ ] no [ ]

5. National Policy Regarding Pandemic Flu Preparations

We are concerned that the current pandemic flu preparations may actually bring about the very pandemic we all seek to avoid.

a. Will you appoint a blue ribbon committee including at least equal numbers of physicians who oppose the use of weaponized vaccinations and anti-virals to review all current federally funded pandemic influenza research, ensuring that it does not (like the Federal anthrax program) become the source of the disease it is alleged to be established to prevent, study the serious possibility that the avian Flu is non-pathogenic in its natural form and may have been turned into a serious disease-producing virus in laboratories, and release your committee’s findings openly and transparently to the American people?

Yes [ ] no [ ]
