The guest was nutritional pharmacist, Ben Fuchs. Mr. Fuchs explained that the body is a self-healing organism, as long as it is given the right tools, those tools being the nutrients that are essential to the proper function of the immune system. Since the symptoms of what we call disease are literally the working of the immune system in its elimination of toxicity or illness as it brings the body back to wellness, suppression of those symptoms is counterproductive to recovery, and that is exactly what allopathic medicine attempts to do – suppress the symptoms.

In many cases, rather than being sick, we are, in a real sense, starving, even while the problem of obesity worsens; the fast food, processed food, packaged food diet denies us essential nutrients, and even a carefully constructed diet can be deficient, because of the depleted condition of the much of cropland soil. Not receiving the vitamins, minerals and enzymes it needs, the body simply continues to crave more food.

The steps in natural treatment of disease are to regulate the diet, by eliminating any foods that disturb digestion and adding nutrient-rich items; eliminate stress, on every level – mental, emotional and physical – which also greatly affects the functionality of the immune system; and determine which nutritional supplements will most directly aid your immune system in eliminating the respective disease, depending on the type of illness and the specific organs or areas of the body affected.

The issue of trust was the lack of fulfillment of the basic medical ethic of informed consent in the administration of vaccines. Informed consent is the first tenet of the Nuremberg Code, and mandates that any and all negative consequences of an experimental medical procedure be communicated to the subject, or patient, and consent be obtained before administering the procedure. The responsibility for the quality of the consent “rests upon each individual who initiates, directs, or engages in the experiment. It is a personal duty and responsibility which may not be delegated to another with impunity.”

Vaccines are experimental. When vaccine manufacturers apply for license of their products, they certify they are safe. Safe, however, in the vaccine industry, literally does not mean, does not harm. It means, the benefits outweigh the risks – but at the time of application for license, the true extent of the risks is not known. The National Institute of Health defines the final stage of clinical trial – Phase IV – as the collection of data after licensure, during the years of mass administration to the public, and with good reason: the subjects of trials conducted by the vaccine manufacturers are hand picked – that is, their health status is well known – so how vaccines will affect the general population is unknown; and more importantly, the manufacturers’ trials are relatively brief, comprising only a few weeks of close monitoring, yet it is well known that vaccine damage can occur weeks, months and even years after the fact of the vaccination.

Thus, it is critical that full information be provided every potential vaccinee, but that mandate is never fulfilled. At best, a cursory document, called a VIS – Vaccine Information Sheet – is provided the patient, but that sheet is anything but fully informative. On a daily basis, hundreds, if not thousands, of children and adults alike are vaccinated, with little or no knowledge of the injury that may result.
