This is a topic that often stirs up emotion, confusion, and concern. My goal here is not to tell you what to think, but to help you understand what I have learned after years of study, clinical experience, and personal reflection.
A Friendly Look at a Serious Topic
The idea behind vaccines is simple. Introduce a small amount of a disease into the body so the immune system can recognize it and build antibodies. In theory, this sounds like a reasonable concept. In practice, I believe the situation is far more complicated.
People often refer to vaccines as "immunizations," but I think that word is misleading. Whether a virus is introduced through a vaccine or through exposure in the real world, your immune system still has to process that pathogen. In both cases, you are contracting the disease in some form. So calling it "immunization" gives the impression of immunity without consequence, and I do not believe that is accurate.
Have Vaccines Ever Been Necessary?
This is one of the first questions I am asked. Historically, many of the diseases we associate with vaccines, such as typhoid, diphtheria, and smallpox, were already in rapid decline before vaccines were introduced. Improved sanitation, better nutrition, and cleaner living environments played a much larger role in reducing these diseases than most people realize.
Let me give you an example. Before the Polio vaccine was introduced, DDT had already been banned due to its toxicity. Interestingly, the symptoms of DDT poisoning were nearly identical to those of Polio. When the vaccine became available, reported cases were already declining. At that time, a family could receive a generous federal subsidy if someone was diagnosed with Polio. Naturally, some doctors saw this as an opportunity to help struggling families, labeling illnesses as Polio so patients could get the aid. That may sound shocking, but it happened. It was a different time.
Why I Am Concerned About Vaccines
My concerns fall into three main categories.
How Vaccines are made:
First, the way vaccines are made. There is no way to create a completely clean vaccine. For example, the DTaP vaccine requires cow blood, cow's milk, and monkey kidneys to culture the diphtheria, tetanus, and pertussis bacteria. These animal tissues can carry viruses, and when they are cultured with other organisms, there is a real risk of mutation. We are introducing unknown genetic material into the body and asking the immune system to make sense of it.
The ingredients in vaccines:
Second, the ingredients. Many vaccines include toxic adjuvants and preservatives like aluminum, mercury (Thimerosal), formaldehyde, pig gelatin, and polysorbate 80. These substances are known toxins, and when injected, even in small amounts, they can create inflammatory responses far more severe than if they were ingested or inhaled. The body is simply not built to handle these substances in this way.
Taxing the immune system:
Third, the conditioning of the immune system. When you repeatedly provoke the immune system to respond to a toxic cocktail of disease particles and chemical agents, you are setting a dangerous precedent. The immune system begins to overreact, and over time, this can result in autoimmune conditions. And we are seeing a surge in autoimmune diagnoses across the population.
What About the Ingredients in Vaccines?
Let me read you a list of ingredients I have come across in vaccines: mercury, aluminum, aborted fetal tissue, baby cow blood, adult cow organs, dog kidneys, monkey urine, horse blood, pigskin and bones, cow's milk, chicken eggs, insect cells, yeast, and antibiotics. Now tell me, does that sound like a medical formula or a potion from a witch's cookbook?
My Personal Experience
This is not just academic for me. I grew up in a large family with over 30 brothers and sisters. Many of them suffered from what I now recognize as vaccine injuries. I saw it up close: encephalitis, seizures, chronic fatigue, skin conditions, autism, and symptoms resembling multiple sclerosis.
As a naturopathic doctor, I have helped hundreds of children and adults who were suffering from similar issues. These are not just stories I read in a book. These are real people, and they have suffered deeply.
Children and the Immune System
One of my biggest concerns is the vaccination of young children. Their immune systems are simply not developed enough to respond properly. A process called seroconversion, where the body learns to create long-term immunity, does not function properly until puberty. If the body cannot perform that function, what is really happening when we inject vaccines into children?
It is no wonder we are seeing rising cases of autoimmune disease in children. Their bodies are being trained to attack themselves before their immune systems have had a chance to mature.
Natural Alternatives and Support Protocols
For years, I have developed protocols to help reduce or even prevent the damage vaccines can cause. These protocols have been especially important as vaccines have evolved, particularly with the introduction of mRNA-based options, which function quite differently from traditional vaccines.
Traditional vaccines typically contain weakened or inactivated parts of a virus to stimulate an immune response. While this concept seems straightforward, the body is still being exposed to the disease, along with a cocktail of adjuvants and preservatives that can be inflammatory or even toxic. Over time, repeated exposure can confuse the immune system, priming it for chronic inflammation or autoimmune conditions, especially in children whose immune systems are not yet fully developed.
mRNA vaccines take things a step further. Instead of introducing a piece of the virus, they deliver synthetic genetic instructions, telling your cells to manufacture a viral protein internally. The immune system then reacts to this protein. While the science behind this may sound impressive, it poses new risks. I have seen patients experience lingering inflammation, neurological symptoms, and hormonal imbalances after mRNA vaccinations. The body may not recognize that these proteins are being produced from within, and in some cases, it may begin attacking its own tissues.
Additionally, the delivery system, lipid nanoparticles, allows these instructions to reach areas of the body that traditional vaccines never would, such as the brain or reproductive organs. This can trigger immune responses in places that should remain untouched.
That is why my preparation protocols are so important. When started about six weeks before vaccination, they help fortify the immune system, support detox pathways, and reduce inflammation. This applies to both traditional and mRNA vaccines. I also offer post-vaccine support to help the body recover and regain balance if symptoms arise.
Vaccines, whether conventional or mRNA, introduce powerful agents into the body. We need to approach them thoughtfully, with support and preparation, not blind trust.
Shedding Light on Shedding
One of the few good things that came out of the recent pandemic is a broader understanding of vaccine shedding. It is now widely acknowledged that people who are recently vaccinated can shed the disease they were vaccinated against. This is not exclusive to mRNA vaccines. It is true for traditional vaccines as well.
Studies have shown that a person vaccinated for the flu can be up to twelve times more contagious than someone who catches the flu naturally. That contagious period also lasts much longer. So in reality, vaccines can become a public health threat, not a safeguard!
Addressing Common Myths About Vaccines
There are a few ideas I believe we need to challenge.
Myth 1: Vaccines are safe.
Many people assume vaccines are completely safe because they are so widely used. But the reality is very different. In 1986, the United States government officially acknowledged that vaccines carry risks and created a law to protect vaccine manufacturers from being sued.
The National Childhood Vaccine Injury Act was passed because vaccine injuries were becoming so common that pharmaceutical companies were facing a flood of lawsuits. Instead of fixing the problem or making vaccines safer, the government removed legal liability from the manufacturers and created the Vaccine Injury Compensation Program.
Since then, more than four billion dollars has been paid out to families affected by vaccine-related injuries. That money came from taxpayers, not the companies that made the products!
Still, most people never hear about it.
Myth 2: Vaccines create immunity.
The idea behind vaccines is to create immunity, but that is the goal, not a guarantee. In reality, the immune response varies widely from person to person. Some individuals never develop antibodies at all. Others do, but the protection may fade quickly or never reach effective levels.
Immunity is a complex, dynamic process. Simply introducing a foreign substance into the body does not ensure the immune system will respond in a meaningful or lasting way. And even if it does, antibody production does not always equal protection. That is why people who are fully vaccinated can still get sick from the very illness they were vaccinated against.
In my practice, I have seen patients test negative for antibodies despite being fully vaccinated. I have also seen people develop antibodies naturally, after exposure, without ever showing symptoms. The human body does not follow a strict pharmaceutical formula; it responds based on individual health, genetics, nutrition, and immune function.
We have been told that vaccines "make us immune," but that is an oversimplification. What they actually do is attempt to trigger an immune response. Whether that response is protective, partial, or even damaging depends on many factors.
True immunity is not something we can inject. It is something the body builds, and that process is much deeper than a single shot can offer.
Myth 3: Vaccines prevent disease.
We are often told that vaccines prevent disease, but the truth is more nuanced. Vaccines work by introducing a version of the disease into the body, either weakened, inactivated, or, in the case of mRNA vaccines, the genetic blueprint to produce a piece of the pathogen. The immune system is then expected to respond by building antibodies.
In order for your body to create those antibodies, it must first recognize and respond to the disease agent. So whether you are exposed to a virus in nature or through a vaccine, your body is still confronting the disease in some form.
That means vaccines do not truly "prevent" disease; they simulate it, in hopes of a controlled response. The risk is that this simulation can still trigger unwanted effects, including inflammation, allergic reactions, or even long-term immune dysfunction. True prevention involves strengthening the immune system, not artificially provoking it.
A More Balanced Approach Toward Vaccines
I believe there is room for a more integrated approach. If vaccines are going to remain a part of modern medicine, they should be administered later in life, once the body is more equipped to handle them. Pairing these vaccines with naturopathic therapies and detox protocols can help reduce the risk of injury.
But we should not stop there. We should be investing in true immune-building strategies. That means quality nutrition, hydration, exercise, good sleep, clean air, and clean water. It means embracing therapies like chiropractic adjustment, massage, cupping, acupuncture, and other holistic methods. These approaches do not suppress the immune system. They support and strengthen it.
A Call for Safer Medicine
There is no reason why brilliant scientists and doctors cannot find a way to create safer vaccines, if they are truly necessary. But we must be willing to re-evaluate the ingredients, the manufacturing process, and the entire theory behind how immunity is built.
At the end of the day, I want people to live full, healthy lives. I want them to have access to clean, effective, and respectful medicine. I want them to be empowered with knowledge so they can make informed decisions for themselves and their families.
That is my approach to vaccines. It comes from years of learning, praying, studying, and walking with patients through their health journeys. I hope this has helped you see the issue through a different lens.
