This question is one that at times is ignored. The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) will allow a toxicant to be used in vaccines, medicines, and in food, as they believe that the amounts for each are to be accepted as a benefit to society as a whole. They fully understand that some will have negative effects. Yet it is the economic impact that is considered. The reality is that economics is the first priority.The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) relies on this theory. After all, you can’t destroy the economy just because someone might become ill can you? What is 1 in 100 after all? Ten percent is just not enough to alter guidelines. This is the sad reality as we continue to be over exposed to many toxins from water, land, air, and the things that we eat.
For reasons as of yet to be understood, total burden is not considered as each product or chemical is only thought of as a single exposure. Mathematics seems to fail us, as studies that use statistical variations can be altered to emphasize positive or negative results depending on the author’s wishes. This is why all of our toxic burdens are ignored, as studies supporting the use of toxins are often funded by industry and examine only one toxicant. They can manipulate the numbers by use of statistical formulas that can give misleading information. And the additive properties of many chemicals that have the same negative effects are not considered, as studies are done on an individual exposure basis.
For example: If I receive 31 vaccines with 200 plus mg’s of mercury that is somehow considered safe. But there is no inclusion of the 20 mgs from amalgams or the other sources of known exposures. The mercury is excluded as a contributor to the cause of my problems. Also excluded are the other toxicants that are known to have influence upon the same neurotransmitters or immune system dysfunctions. On an individual basis the levels you may come into contact with are considered safe. The additive effects have not been studied.
I have said for years that 2+2 still equals 4, despite the simplistic way these studies about causation are done. Eliminating just one of these toxins will not cause an improvement, as it is the entire burden that creates our problems. We may consider ourselves equals as human beings, but our bodies react to different stimuli one way and may not react to others in the same way. There is no set equality here.
We do understand all of these scientific facts yet it seems to be easier just to ignore them, as only a small percentage die. Many think it’s fine if you have a headache; then take a pill. If your child is stricken with some disorder, that is just bad luck. After all, isn’t it a world of the fittest? Are you depressed? Then take another pill. The problem is that none of us are immune anymore.
We have family members that suffer, many of us suffer, and yet because the government has shown us the statistics we believe we are safe. We believe that it’s not that bad. There is no connection between toxins and what we see today. Could government be hiding the true facts? You can bet on it, as money will buy the misleading “facts” that are needed and the illnesses we suffer do create an entire new industry. What one industry creates, another can profit from to make you believe that you feel better.
Maybe I’m wrong; time will tell. One thing I do know is that this situation will not get better by doing things the same way.
