Natural Immunity and Possible Vaccination Risks

Vaccines are one of the “sacred cows” of modern medicine. We’ve all been told how vaccines have wiped out certain contagious diseases, and every year people faithfully line up to get vaccines for themselves and their children. But are vaccines really all they’re cracked up to be? Here are some facts to consider.

For starters, the myth is that the vaccines make you immune. This simply isn’t true. A vaccine presents a challenge to your immune system, which mounts a response and prepares antibodies to defend itself against the disease. Therefore, it’s your immune system, not the vaccine, that makes you immune.

Secondly, there is ample evidence that vaccines can “backfire” if your immune system is compromised. This means the vaccine itself actually makes you sick because your immune system wasn’t strong enough to mount a response.

The fact is, that few people have ever read the list of ingredients or the list of possible side effects in the vaccines they routinely accept. An even smaller number of people have done their own research on the topic.

In this Herbal Hour, Steven Horne, RH(AHG) discusses how to help the real hero of immunity, our own immune system. He also discusses why vaccines may not be such “hot shots,” how to legally avoid immunizations if you so choose and alternative ways of maintaining your health.
