Children Dying from H1N1? Lessons from Our Grandmothers…

by Judy on October 13, 2009

Children are dying from the H1N1 flu! Yours may be next! Get them vaccinated today!

This is the message on the news. But the continued media blitz about the H1N1 flu and the very dangerous vaccine created to prevent it is one-sided.

First, as inconceivably tragic it is to lose a child, most of the children who have died from this flu have had either underlying health conditions or had contracted a bacterial infection along with the flu.

Second, reports over the past months have also noted that vitamin D levels in children are seriously low. And when that happens, children are more and more susceptible to any illness. Studies have shown that optimal doses of Vitamin D prevent many of the diseases and illnesses we face today, including the flu. But you won’t find the media making the connection.

Now we trust our medical system so innocently that we simply no longer know enough about how to keep ourselves healthy. Unlike our grandmothers, we’ve lost our instincts, and we don’t have home remedies tucked away in our cupboards.

But grandmothers were smart. They knew to shoo us outside in the sunshine. They knew to give us a morning dose of cod liver oil. They gave us apples and oranges for fiber and Vitamin C, fermented ketchup and sauerkraut for digestion, and they made us eat our vegetables (probably organic and far more nutritious than today’s produce).

They treated fevers with ice wraps, congestion with warm aromatic eucalyptus compresses, and coughs with honey and lemon juice. They kept us home from school and in our beds.

Instead, today we expect our doctors to have the vaccine to keep us from disease and pills to cure us when we do get sick so that our lives can go on uninterrupted.

  • Despite the fact that the vaccines contain deadly ingredients – mercury, aluminum, squaline, detergent, formaldehyde, antibiotics
  • Despite the fact that pills – and flu treatments – have side effects worse than the illnesses they treat

It’s easy to understand why pharmaceutical treatments are favored, and the media lining up to promote them while ignoring the implications of their earlier reports (Vitamin D3 is cheap and readily available).

But we can take back our health and our health care.

So, if you are concerned for your children’s health during this flu season, become your grandmother:

  • Get your kids outside to play in the fresh air and sunshine, away from the computer and the television
  • Dose your children with Vitamin D3 – 2,000-5,000 units per day depending on their size, NOW
  • Eliminate sugar – all kinds -, sodas, and processed foods high in calories and low in nutrition
  • Prepare fresh fruits and vegetables – fresh and organic as much as possible
  • Have a supply of echinacea and goldenseal – you can add tinctures of these to water and tea
  • Enforce hand-washing with pure soap – teach them to use a nail brush as well
  • Have healthy beverages on hand – lemonade made with real lemons and tea – sweetened only with Stevia
  • Treat coughs with honey, laced with juice from a lemon or plain
  • Have eucalyptus essential oil for those chest compresses to treat congestion

The more information you have, the better able you’ll be to keep yourself and your children well – and not just through flu season. And, remember, the most important medicine when it comes to your child’s healing is your loving touch.

Blessings,

Judy
