Life as a WAHM

All parents should stop their girls from receiving the Gardasil vaccine.

This vaccine is possibly increasing the risk of cancerous lesions by 44%.

The FDA has known for years that the HPV Virus is self limiting.

They have known that the HPV virus does NOT cause cancer.

HPV Vaccine (Gardasil) is medically useless.

Mike Adams of NewsTarget.com has a must read article filled with FACTS!
He has listed the links to the FDA documents regarding HPV.

If you think you do not have time to read this article then just imagine what you will do as an uninformed parent, grandparent, aunt or uncle when a doctor comes at a young girl you love with that needle.

This drug has already caused death, coma, seizers & a whole host of other reactions in young girls & women.

The Big Pharma Company Merck wants to make it mandatory for every girl age 9 & up to have this shot.

Why? Since it is medically useless, it can only be for money.
They even want boys to get a vaccine for cervical cancer. I am no doctor but, boys do not have a cervix!

Texas Governor Rick Perry had ties to Big Pharma. One of the officials in Perry's administration worked for Merck, which produces & sells Gardasil. He has made it mandatory for all girls to receive this vaccine. The governor also received $6,000 from Merck’s political action committee during his re-election campaign. Texas needs to stop him from harming their girls!

If your state is trying to push this through then YOU need to take action. Get the facts!

Well, as many of you have seen me write before I am a firm believer in kids being outside. Not, only for the exercise but for the sunshine! Your body needs natural vitamin D! There are a few articles in the blog here about the benefits of sunshine. They will also tell you not to slather sunscreen on every time you step out.
In this article from the WholeFood Farmacy you will see how sunshine, calcium, & exercise will keep your kids healthy.
There is no reason children here in the USA should have rickets.
I hope you and your kids take the time to eat healthy & get outside to do something fun (exercise does not have to be boring).
Have a sunny day,

A Triple Play for Healthy Bones

Helping children build healthy bones is an important job that all parents should know how to do. Children build half of their bone mass during adolescence and reach their peak bone mass by age twenty. The three most important factors for building healthy, strong bones in your children are calcium, vitamin D from exposure to sunlight and exercise.

Poor nutrition, lack of outdoor activities and lack of exercise have health experts very concerned as cases of Rickets in are rising fast in American children. Rickets is a childhood bone disease that is typically seen only in third world developing countries. It causes the bones to ache and to become deformed starting at a young age.

According to Dr. James Beaty, President of the American Academy of Orthopedic Surgeons, "There's some early data showing that even a 10 percent deficit in your bone mass when you finish your adolescent years can increase your potential risk of having osteoporosis and fractures as much as 50 percent”.

When it comes to American children, the experts believe that poor nutrition combined with too much TV, internet and computer game time is an issue that parents need to address immediately. "This potentially is a time-bomb," says Dr. Laura Tosi, bone health chief at Children's National Medical Center in Washington D.C.

What’s the solution? Good nutrition, sunshine and exercise!

Calcium is the building block of healthy bones. Foods which are good sources of calcium include fat-free or low-fat milk, yogurt, cheese, canned fish with bones, nuts, fruits, vegetables, dried beans, rice beverages, molasses and some leafy greens.

The best source of vitamin D is natural sunlight, that’s why getting outdoors is so important for your children. When the kids are playing outdoors they are getting both exercise and vitamin D.

The Wholefood Farmacy can offer you some wonderfully healthy foods and snacks for you and your kids. These are the perfect snacks for outdoor activities at any time of the year.

Here is a WholeFood Farmacy Wellness Wednesday that may get you to step it up.

If you are wanting to make sure you do not put on extra pound over the holidays maybe you should go for a walk.

You will be amazed at how much walking you do while Christmas shopping, walking the kids to school, or just at work.

I wish I had a pedometer when I was a bartender. I can not imagine how much mileage was put on my pumps.

Pedometers

Pedometers, also called step counters, clip to a belt or waistband and count the steps the wearer takes during the day. They are available in the $5 to $60 range with simple, reliable models available for about $20. So what can a pedometer do for you?

Researchers, with a grant from the National Institute on Aging, put the pedometer to the test. Dr. Dena Bravata of Stanford University was the co-author of the study and the findings were published in the November 21st, 2007, issue of the Journal of the American Medical Association.

Bravata and her colleagues analyzed 20 studies from the United States and Canada and half a dozen from Japan, Europe and Australia. The average age of participants was 49, and 85 percent were female because some studies targeted women. The total number of volunteers overall was more than 2,700.

Overall, the pedometer stood up to multiple research studies, helping people walk an additional mile each day if they logged their steps and kept track from day to day. On average, the volunteers lost a few pounds and their blood pressure dropped enough to lower their risk for stroke and heart disease.

“Every night, you write down how many steps you walked that day,” said Bravata. “By flipping back through your diary, you’re able to see patterns: ’On the two days a week I took the stairs, I increased my steps.”’

The key seems to be keeping a diary of your pedometer readings and setting a daily goal to stay in step with. It’s inexpensive enough – it’s easy enough – why not give it a try? And while you’re doing more walking, don’t forget your favorite Wholefood Farmacy foods which are the perfect snack while you’re on the go!
