"The body gains natural immunity through exposure to pathogens and, occasionally, a healing crisis, which naturally eliminates cancer-producing toxins. Vaccines, on the other hand, suppress natural immunity and replace it with artificial, fake immunity. By design, all vaccines depress immune functions. The cocktail of toxic chemicals and metals, the viruses, and the foreign DNA/RNA from animal tissues in the vaccines impair the immune system. Many of the vaccines contain neurotoxins and actual carcinogens." - Andreas Moritz, Cancer Is Not A Disease - It's A Survival Mechanism (Get the book.)

"It has been said that Pasteur, on his deathbed, admitted to his colleagues that an individual's natural immunity is more important than germs in the matter of disease. He had been unable to grow his germ cultures on healthy, fresh fruit, and instead had to grow them on rotting soup. Dr. Joel Robbins teaches that two conditions must be present in order for disease germs to enter into, or develop in, living tissue: first, something besides the germ must have previously weakened the tissue; and second, there must be acidic debris present in the tissue for the germs to live on." - Ron Garner, Conscious Health: A Complete Guide to Wellness Through Natural Means (Get the book.)

"Only 10% of immune cells are permanently lost when a child is permitted to develop natural immunity from disease. There needs to be grave concern about these immune system injuring vaccinations! Compelling evidence is available that the development of the immune system after contracting the usual childhood diseases matures and renders it capable to fight infection in the future. The use of multiple vaccines, which prevents natural immunity, promotes the development of allergies and asthma." - James A. Howenstine, A Physician's Guide to Natural Health Products That Work (Get the book.)

"Vaccines, on the other hand, suppress natural immunity and replace it with artificial, fake immunity. By design, all vaccines depress immune functions. The cocktail of toxic chemicals and metals, the viruses, and the foreign DNA/RNA from animal tissues in the vaccines impair the immune system. Many of the vaccines contain neurotoxins and actual carcinogens." - Andreas Moritz, Cancer Is Not A Disease - It's A Survival Mechanism (Get the book.) "Modern vaccination programs are largely responsible for the significant deterioration of natural immunity among the vaccinated populations around the world today. The body does not acquire real immunity to infectious diseases by exposing it to vaccines (antibody production alone does not create immunity); in fact, with each vaccine the immune system becomes depleted more. New vaccines that, for example, are said to prevent cervical cancer (connected with the human papillomavirus or HPV) merely force the body to move toxins into other areas." - Andreas Moritz, Cancer Is Not A Disease - It's A Survival Mechanism (Get the book.)

"Vaccine Safety Concerns While it's a terrible tragedy for any child to contract a preventable infectious disease that can result in long-term health complications and even on a very rare occasion death, most children fully recover and then have natural immunity to the disease. It's no less tragic for a child to suffer an avoidable adverse reaction to a vaccine, a reaction that can result in a lifetime of suffering with a chronic and debilitating disease. Although rarely discussed, adverse reactions are a reality." - Deirdre Imus, Growing Up Green: Baby and Child Care: Volume 2 in the Bestselling Green This! Series (Green This!) (Get the book.) "Some parents prefer to allow their children to develop natural immunity by exposing them to the chicken pox. I choose not to give Wyatt some vaccines if his pediatrician and I conclude that the potential risks outweigh the benefits. Giving Wyatt a vaccine that contains mercury might create far more problems than it solves." - Deirdre Imus, Growing Up Green: Baby and Child Care: Volume 2 in the Bestselling Green This! Series (Green This!) (Get the book.)

"Miller points out that before the introduction of the vaccination, 85 percent of the population had natural immunity to rubella. One of the most devastating complications associated with vaccination is encephalomyelitis, a diffuse inflammation of the brain that results in widespread destruction of brain structures. Michael Dye in his book, Vaccinations: Deception and Tragedy, cites a study from the National Childhood Encephalopathy Study conducted in Wales and Scotland of 1,182 children admitted to the hospital for acute neurological illness." - Russell L. Blaylock, M.D., Health and Nutrition Secrets (Get the book.)

"Today Herberman is recognized as one of the world's experts on how natural immunity works and what can happen to upset it. As a young researcher, he asked why some patients appeared to recover completely from cancer after brief bouts of treatment with chemotherapy, while others perished. Could there be something different about those who survived—something that could be used to help others overcome the illness? He started out by looking at blood from those who had gone into remission, meaning that they had no sign of disease at all. He found something odd." - Devra Davis, The Secret History of the War on Cancer (Get the book.)

"Cold sores are caused by the Herpes simplex virus, to which most of us have a natural immunity that enables us to keep it under control. In susceptible people, a trigger such as a cold or sore throat will cause it to flare up. Extreme weather conditions such as cold weather and sunlight can also cause a reaction. It is thought that there is a tendency for certain families to be susceptible to cold sores." - Marshall Editions, 1000 Cures for 200 Ailments: Integrated Alternative and Conventional Treatments for the Most Common Illnesses (Get the book.)

"Use of tobacco, especially by smoking, reduces the zinc (page 614) content of prostatic fluid, and may therefore reduce natural immunity to prostate infection.5 No research, however, has investigated the effect of smoking cessation on the prevention of prostatitis. Nutritional supplements that may be helpful Quercetin (page 580), a flavonoid (page 516) with anti-inflammatory and antioxidant (page 467) effects, has recently been reported to improve symptoms of NBP and PD." - Alan R. Gaby, M.D., Jonathan V. Wright, M.D., Forrest Batz, Pharm.D. Rick Chester, RPh., N.D., DipLAc. George Constantine, R.Ph., Ph.D. Linnea D.

"Today, our natural immunity to these germs is many times lower than it was just 100 years ago. Tooth decay and depleted vision among young people are very common now. Numerous new and rapidly growing epidemics are now proliferating, a phenomenon unheard of just two centuries ago. They include millions of people suffering from diabetes, heart disease, cancer and obesity—the latter being the most common cause behind illness and death." - Andreas Moritz, Timeless Secrets of Health & Rejuvenation: Unleash The Natural Healing Power That Lies Dormant Within You (Get the book.) "Incandescent light has a narrow band compared to sunlight, and exposure to it is known to weaken one's natural immunity. (A Russian study showed that workers who were exposed to UV light during working hours suffered 50 percent fewer colds.) A weak immune system cannot properly defend itself against disease, and that includes skin cancer! Researcher Dr. Helen Shaw and her team conducted a melanoma study at the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine, and at the Sydney Melanoma Clinic in Sydney Hospital." - Andreas Moritz, Timeless Secrets of Health & Rejuvenation: Unleash The Natural Healing Power That Lies Dormant Within You (Get the book.)

"Third, this can rob the body of the opportunity to develop its own natural immunity. It is possible to increase the healing power of a medicine and reduce its toxicity while at the same time proportionately and progressively diluting the medicine. In homeopathy, the more a remedy is diluted, the greater its potency. This allows homeopathic physicians to administer extremely powerful but minute therapeutic doses with no unpleasant side effects and no danger of toxic reactions. The reverse is often true in conventional medicine." - Phyllis A. Balch, CNC, Prescription for Nutritional Healing, 4th Edition: A Practical A-to-Z Reference to Drug-Free Remedies Using Vitamins, Minerals, Herbs & Food Supplements (Get the book.)

"On the contrary, it can build up natural immunity even against future encounters with new strains of the flu virus. The very reason that nature creates these new forms of virus every year and spreads them with accurate timing is to ensure continued ecological balance and strong immunity in plants, animals, and humans alike. Anyone prone to repeated infections is likely to have a toxic liver with many hundreds of stones accumulated in the liver and gallbladder. Gallstones, which harbor many types of infectious bacteria and viruses, are a constant source of immune suppression." - Andreas Moritz, Timeless Secrets of Health & Rejuvenation: Unleash The Natural Healing Power That Lies Dormant Within You (Get the book.)

"The use of multiple vaccines, which prevents natural immunity, promotes the development of allergies and asthma. A New Zealand study disclosed that 23% of vaccinated children develop asthma compared to zero in unvaccinated children. Cancer was a very rare illness in the 1890's. This evidence about immune system injury from vaccination affords a plausible explanation for Dr. Clarke's finding that only vaccinated individuals got cancer. Some radical adverse change in health occurred in the early 1900's to permit cancer to explode and vaccinating may be the reason." - James A. Howenstine, A Physician's Guide to Natural Health Products That Work (Get the book.)

"Engystol N: Available in an injectable form by prescription and administered by a licensed healthcare practitioner, Engystol N has broad-spectrum antiviral activity and stimulates effective natural immunity. Gripp-Heel: Like Engystol, this medication is manufactured by Heel, a German company with manufacturing and distribution in the United States, and comes in tablets or for injection. Pascotox Forte-Injectopas: This injectable medicine is manufactured by Pascoe Naturmedizin in Germany and is not available in the United States. It contains Echinacea pallida root with homeo-pathics." - J. E. Williams, Beating the Flu: The Natural Prescription for Surviving Pandemic Influenza and Bird Flu (Get the book.) "The goal is to reduce the viral burden on the body without drugs so the patient's natural immunity can defeat the virus. Preclinical human blood studies have documented the effectiveness of the Hemopurifier in capturing influenza, hepatitis C, measles, mumps, Ebola, and Marburg viruses, as well as HIV, Orthopoxvirus, and Dengue hemorrhagic fever virus. It also can clear harmful cytokines, the immune chemicals that are responsible for many of the aggressive symptoms related to bird flu infection, from the blood. No adverse events have been reported in the course of use with this device." - J. E. Williams, Beating the Flu: The Natural Prescription for Surviving Pandemic Influenza and Bird Flu (Get the book.) "It may mutate, spawning multiple versions of the same flu, so you could get sick repeatedly until your body has developed natural immunity to fight it off or the virus weakens. If this were the case, you and your family may have to stay on a regime of natural medications for three to six months. Long-term use of nutritional supplements, if taken in the recommended dosages, poses no overdosing risk. Homeopathic medicines are safe and, as a rule, are only taken to control symptoms or when necessary to treat a condition. Overdosing is not an issue." - J. E. Williams, Beating the Flu: The Natural Prescription for Surviving Pandemic Influenza and Bird Flu (Get the book.) "Eating these foods undermines your natural immunity and inhibits healing and recovery. Certain foods have properties that strengthen the immune system and some may even prevent the flu. Oats and mushrooms contain beta-glucan, an immune stimulant discussed in the last chapter. Yogurt contains friendly bacteria that help neutralize toxins in the gut, keep infectious bacteria and yeast under control, promote intestinal health, and support mucosal immunity critical to maintaining an effective barrier against invading viruses. Citrus fruits contain vitamin C that shortens the duration of a cold." - J. E. Williams, Beating the Flu: The Natural Prescription for Surviving Pandemic Influenza and Bird Flu (Get the book.)

"Unprocessed, unrefined foods, including plenty of fresh fruits and vegetables, help a child to build up natural immunity and help the adult to maintain it. The most powerful and all-protective immunization reinforcements a newborn baby can receive are having the doctor wait to cut or clamp the umbilical cord until it stops throbbing44, and having the mother breastfeed the child. This way, the infant gets all the necessary antibodies to build up a sound system of immunity to effectively deal with any type of infectious agent in the future." - Andreas Moritz, Timeless Secrets of Health & Rejuvenation: Unleash The Natural Healing Power That Lies Dormant Within You (Get the book.)

"For natural Immunity; for steroid hormone synthesis, protects against adrenal enlargement, anti-stress (stress uses up 60%), and Thymus gland shrinkage." - Joseph E. Mario, Anti-Aging Manual: The Encyclopedia of Natural Health (Get the book.) "Natural Immunity declines with deficientZinc causing decreased Thymus size, T-cells diminish in size and function against cancer, fungal and yeast infections; in the respiratory system, coughs; shingles (take Vitamin C and Lysine); Bell's palsy; swelling of tissue, cold hands and feet, and slow thinking. Other serious Immune deficiency diseases are Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome (A.I.D.S.), Severe Combined Immune Deficiency Syndrome (SCIDS), and that iatrogenic-induced by chemotherapy or radiation. Auto-immune Disease SEEalphabetically." - Joseph E. Mario, Anti-Aging Manual: The Encyclopedia of Natural Health (Get the book.) "Antibiotics overuse on mutatable vaccine viruses, with wrongdiet and lifestyle, suppresses natural immunity, for 58% rise in mortalities from infectious diseases ftom 1980 to 1992. #1)735,450 Americans died ofheart disease (1989); 975,550 in 1995. #2) 197,220 people perished from cancers (1989) 23%; 403,780 in 1995 (24%). 100 years ago the cancer rate was 3%, 200 years ago 1%. #3) Prescription drugs kill about 168,000 Americans in ayear (estimated by the Office of Technology Assessment). #4) 147,450 persons died of strokes. #5) 84,3 50 died of lung illness #6) 75,240 died of pneumonia and flu." - Joseph E. Mario, Anti-Aging Manual: The Encyclopedia of Natural Health (Get the book.)

"The native population was decimated by the virus, for they were completely lacking in natural immunity to it. Following this event a degree of natural immunity to the disease developed, such that measles proved to be no more deadly in the Hawaiian population than in the American. The immune system of the native islander had changed as a result of a perturbation from the environment. It was "shaken up," but the population as a whole "escaped" to a new level of immune competence. A higher internal order of health had evolved." - Larry Dossey, Space, Time & Medicine (Get the book.)

"Nonspecific immunity (also called natural immunity) developed first in our evolution, which may account for its less specific action. Some natural immunity cells, like Kupffer cells, remain primarily in the liver where they neutralize toxins of all sorts. Our much more specific cellular immunity developed later and works like a well-trained detective squad which, after getting fingerprints and collecting crime scene evidence, identifies and arrests only specific, targeted criminals. In a strict scientific sense, only cellular immunity is called the immune system." - Alan Keith Tillotson, Ph.D., A.H.G., D.Ay., The One Earth Herbal Sourcebook: Everything You Need to Know About Chinese, Western, and Ayurvedic Herbal Treatments (Get the book.)

"Without vitamin C our natural immunity would crumble since it goes into action at skin level as well as in the bloodstream. Vitamin C is involved either directly or indirectly in every biochemical process that takes place in the body. Because it is needed everywhere, some experts suggest that we need enough to keep ourselves saturated and I have often prescribed vitamin C in large quantities for arthritic sufferers. As it is a vitamin that we, unlike most other forms of life, can no longer synthesise, we have to obtain it on a daily basis from our food." - Jan De Vries, Life Without Arthritis: The Maori Way (Get the book.)

"These bacteria promote the body's natural immunity, keep us healthy, keep levels of harmful bacteria low, and help our digestion. Our gastrointestinal tract is home to more than four hundred different species of bacteria, most of them beneficial. This large quantity of working bacteria perform important functions in our bodies and keep us healthy by: > Increasing the absorption of minerals and vitamins and improving digestion, especially of milk products. >• Improving our immune system by producing antimicrobial substances that deter various bad bacteria." - Dr. Paula Baillie-Hamilton, Toxic Overload: A Doctor's Plan for Combating the Illnesses Caused by Chemicals in Our Foods, Our Homes, and Our Medicine Cabinets (Get the book.)

"Nature heals "homeopathically" (by small doses). natural immunity is probably based on the same principle. The first difference, then, between current childhood vaccines and natural immunity is in the quantity of antigenic material. In the former there is the introduction of massive quantities of antigen into the system; in the latter the quantities are small. The second major difference, as outlined in the previous section, is in the route of introduction into the system." - Peggy O'Mara, Vaccination The Issue of Our Times (Get the book.) "A little analysis, based on scientific findings, will reveal that there are fundamental, perhaps irreconcilable differences between current methods of vaccination and natural immunity. The first difference is the quantity of antigenic stimulation in modern vaccines. In the case of natural immunity, it has been estimated that the frequency of unnoticed infections outnumbers clinical illnesses by at least one hundredfold." - Peggy O'Mara, Vaccination The Issue of Our Times (Get the book.)
