ones that doctors are familiar with can be seen on MRIs or cat scans and are easily diagnosable. My fear is that the biggest cause of this cranial nerve damage may be the neurotoxic aluminum adjuvants frequently injected via vaccinations.
HG: There are many skeptics who immediately claim that vaccines are safe and effective the minute they hear anything or anyone questioning the efficacy of vaccinations. They consider me and others who think differently as lunatics. How can you be so sure that the adjuvants are the irritants and that vaccinations are causing these brain lesions?
FM: That is fairly easy to explain, especially if you realize that the amount of aluminum adjuvant in any given vaccine is easily enough to kill an infant. If injected into the right place in their brainstem, it could instantly kill them. We’ve always relied on the thought that injection into the body will dilute it so much that the amount required to do enough damage to the brainstem to kill someone would never actually get there. We assume that no one would be that unlucky and that the entire dosage—the entire five hundred micrograms of aluminum hydroxide—would never make its way to the brainstem. [Editor’s note: There are two hundred and fifty
micrograms of aluminum in a single dose of the hepatitis B vaccine routinely administered within twenty-four hours of birth. By eighteen months of age, babies who adhere to the child- hood vaccine schedule will receive almost five thousand micrograms of aluminum.2]
We’ve realized that there are two problems. First, an aluminum adjuvant doesn’t dilute inside the body. Think about pouring a package of grape Kool-Aid powder into a pitcher of water; you can imagine it spreading out into a perfect purple hue. That’s not what happens with an aluminum adjuvant. It gets picked up by the white blood cells, but the white blood cells don’t travel around the body randomly—they move where they are signaled to go by the immune system. This was one of the big discoveries I write about in Crooked.
TARA COUTURE ON RECENT WISE TRADITIONS PODCAST
How do you eat the Wise Traditions way in real life?
Tara Couture, a farmer, holistic nutritionist, devoted mother and wife, answered just this question on episode #175 called “Slow Diet in a Fast World.” She lives with her family on Slow Down Farmstead, a small, organic, grass-based farm in Canada. On the episode, Tara shared with us her personal journey from following a vegetarian diet and struggling with her health, to recovering through traditional nutrient-dense foods. Today, she and her husband do their best to raise healthy, strong children, but that doesn’t mean it’s been easy. One daughter’s diet is so radically different from her teammates’ that this sets her apart socially. Tara’s middle daughter, at age eleven, was diagnosed with an eat- ing disorder that had her parents sick with worry and wondering how to bring her back from the brink. In short, Tara shares both the highs and lows on her journey of helping her family embrace slow, real food in this fast-paced modern world.
