Perhaps Mark Twain was right when he said:

"There are two types of infinity: space and man's stupidity".

Health is complicated. It isn't one thing that causes a problem. It's usually a combination.

What the heck are we eating? Are we eating ourselves sick? Dr. Mercola, Dr. Jonathon Wright, & DogtorJ relate eating grains, soy, & cow's milk to illness. DogtorJ and Dr. Richard Schulze think that illness is caused by a depressed immune system. And that bacteria and viruses are always around us. When we are really healthy, the bacteria and viruses cannot make us sick. I wanted to see if I thought Dr. Mercola, Dr. Wright, and DogtorJ were right about eating grains. I put together this timeline to look at what I think may be why were have the epidemics of modern diseases. As I kept finding interesting events, it kept growing beyond my original finding out about grains. We would like to point at one thing that caused "the" problem. but it is pretty clear that it is multiple causes from so-called modern life that are making us so sick.

The result is that the millers who at first were unwilling to indulge in bleaching have been forced to bleach in order to maintain their trade ....Thus the very law which the Supreme Court has said was enacted chiefly to protect the public health has been turned into a measure to threaten public health and to defraud the purchasers of flour."

In Denmark, during World War II, due to a food crisis, many domestic animals were slaughtered and their grain rations fed to humans. Consumption of white bread was stopped, and replaced by a bread made from a wholemeal of 67% rye, 21% oats, and 12% bran, called Kleiebrot. Consequently, the death rate fell to the lowest level ever registered in Europe. There were significant declines in the incidence of high blood pressure, heart disease, kidney problems, diabetes, and cancer, and there were no cases of digestive troubles

"She showed us a graph, from a medical journal, that proved how effective antibiotics and immunization had been in eradicating scarlet fever, diphtheria, whooping cough and measles. But this doctor's copy of the graph started in 1940, and we had already seen the fuller graph, which started in 1850 and showed that in all four diseases, a steady decline had been happening long before the introduction of either immunization or antibiotics. So that doctor had made a conscientious decision based on a graph that had been deliberately falsified".

Diabetes starts to increase at an alarming rate

In fact by 1955, still eight years before the start of this vaccine, there had been a 97% decline in the death rate from measles since the turn of the century!) What is more, medical authorities have since acknowledged that the 1963 measles vaccine was a complete failure!

Inactivated polio vaccine licensed

Herbert Shelton comments on the polio epidemics: "Polio epidemics are very largely physician made. Great numbers of cases of illness diagnosed as polio are not". Shelton goes on to say: "The apparent disappearance of polio as a result of vaccination was brought about by a clever juggling stunt. Before the Salk vaccine was introduced, thousands of cases of polio were diagnosed each year in children who had no polio.

(1956 - 1957) U.S. Army covert biological weapons researchers release mosquitoes infected with yellow fever and dengue fever over Savannah, Ga., and Avon Park, Fla., to test the insects' ability to carry disease. After each test, Army agents pose as public health officials to test victims for effects and take pictures of the unwitting test subjects. These experiments result in a high incidence of fevers, respiratory distress, stillbirths, encephalitis and typhoid among the two cities' residents, as well as several deaths (Cockburn and St. Clair, eds.).

(1963 - 1966) New York University researcher Saul Krugman promises parents with mentally disabled children definite enrollment into the Willowbrook State School in Staten Island, N.Y., a resident mental institution for mentally retarded children, in exchange for their signatures on a consent form for procedures presented as "vaccinations." In reality, the procedures involve deliberately infecting children with viral hepatitis by feeding them an extract made from the feces of infected patients, so that Krugman can study the course of viral hepatitis as well the effectiveness of a hepatitis vaccine (Hammer Breslow).

1963 The mass vaccination campaigns of the 1950s and '60s may be causing hundreds of deaths a year because of a cancer-causing virus that contaminated the first polio vaccine, according to scientists. Known as SV40, the virus came from dead monkeys whose kidney cells were used to culture the first Salk vaccines.  Those born between 1941 and 1961 are thought to be most at risk of having been infected.

Their symptoms disappeared in 4-6 days in ALL of them!"

The CDC acknowledges that a disease known as AIDS exists and confirms 26 cases of the disease -- all in previously healthy homosexuals living in New York, San Francisco and Los Angeles -- again supporting the speculation that AIDS originated from the hepatitis B experiments from 1978 and 1980 (Goliszek).

2002 - The switch away from aspirin to acetaminophen in children, the result of aspirin's association with the devastating neurologic illness Reye's syndrome, therefore, resulted in a population with higher average PGE2 levels and potentially greater susceptibility to allergic diseases such as asthma (37). Arguing against this provocative theory is that the asthma epidemic also involves adults who use aspirin. Finally, no independent association of acetaminophen use with the asthma epidemic in children has yet been determined.

One study found the peak incidence of SIDS occurred at the ages of 2 and 4 months in the U.S., precisely when the first two routine immunizations are given,[4] while another found a clear pattern of correlation extending three weeks after immunization. Another study found that 3,000 children die within 4 days of vaccination each year in the U.S. (amazingly, the authors reported no SIDS/vaccine relationship), while yet another researcher's studies led to the conclusion that half of SIDS cases--that would be 2500 to 5000 infant deaths in the U.S. each year--are caused by vaccines.[4]

The CDC and Kaiser Pharmaceuticals of Southern California inject 1,500 six-month-old black and Hispanic babies in Los Angeles with an "experimental" measles vaccine that had never been licensed for use in the United States. Adding to the risk, children less than a year old may not have an adequate amount of myelin around their nerves, possibly resulting in impaired neural development because of the vaccine. The CDC later admits that parents were never informed that the vaccine being injected into their children was experimental (Goliszek).

A study from the science journal, Public Health, described in 2004 how the incidence of death from brain diseases, such as Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, and motor neurone disorders, was found to have tripled in nine Western countries, including the U.S., during the period 1974 to 1997. The most likely causes researchers identified were exposure to pesticides sprayed on crops, synthetic chemicals from the processed foods that we consume, and industrial chemicals used in almost every aspect of our modern lives.

Chemtrail spraying begins

U.S. girls are reaching puberty at younger ages than ever before. In the 1990s, breast development -- the first sign of puberty in girls -- at age 8 was considered an abnormal event that should be investigated by an endocrinologist. However, by 1999, following a 1997 study that found almost half of African Americans and 15 percent of whites had begun breast development by age 8, the Lawson Wilkins Pediatric Endocrine Society suggested changing what is viewed as “normal.”

In particular, USDA has lifted the 30% limitation on soy protein in meat/meat alternatives and loosened the restrictions for reimbursing soymilk as a non-dairy alternative in school meals. In 2000, USDA changed its regulations to allow soy protein to fulfill 100 percent of the meat/meat alternate component in the child nutrition programs.

The U.S. Air Force and rocket maker Lockheed Martin sponsor a Loma Linda University study that pays 100 Californians $1,000 to eat a dose of perchlorate -- a toxic component of rocket fuel that causes cancer, damages the thyroid gland and hinders normal development in children and fetuses -- every day for six months. The dose eaten by the test subjects is 83 times the safe dose of perchlorate set by the State of California, which has perchlorate in some of its drinking water.

Alzheimer's isn't even plotted before 1979.  In 1979, the Alzheimer's death rate was 0.2 per 100,000 people.  By 2000 it was 18.0 per 100,000, making it the eighth leading cause of death.  For a 21-year period, such a jump -- almost 100 times -- is astronomical.  From barely noticeable in 1979, to epidemic proportions today.

Pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (Prevnar) recommended for all young children.

Rotavirus vaccine withdrawn from the market as a result of adverse events.

"The vaccines contain not only live viruses but also very significant amounts of highly toxic substances such as mercury, aluminum and formaldehyde.  Could this be the reason for the upsurge in autism, ADHD, asthma, arthritis, Crohn’s disease, lupus and other chronic disorders?"---Dr Rimland

2001

In fact, 99 percent of the ingredients in any given product can remain absent from labels thanks to the legal protection of “trade secrets,” as these ingredients, by law, can be buried under the generic term, “inert” or “other.” The secret code for cover-up in food labels is either “flavorings” or “natural,” and the absence of any reference to the fact that most of our processed food is genetically modified is also perfectly legal.

World Trade Center, Pentagon and Flight 93. Within a year, 358 firefighters and five emergency medical service personnel involved in the WTC rescue and recovery efforts will be placed on medical leave or light-duty assignments due to respiratory problems

since soy formula has been in the marketplace, parents and pediatricians have reported growing numbers of boys whose physical maturation is either delayed or does not occur at all.

many physicians and many mothers have commented on their observation that girls seem to be maturing much earlier than they did 30 to 40 years ago. ... Many scientists believe that earlier puberty is caused, in part, by the widespread exposure to pesticides and other chemicals that have qualities like estrogen.

Terrorists destroyed the World Trade Center in New York City. Within weeks, DOD officials suggested terrorists had weaponized smallpox and anthrax that could be used to attack and infect large numbers of Americans. In the name of national security, eventually drug company and government officials persuaded Congress to pass legislation (Homeland Security, MSEHPA, Bioshield, BARDA) giving sweeping new emergency powers to federal and state public health officials while appropriating billions of dollars to develop experimental bioterrorism and pandemic flu vaccines.

Indeed, data left out of the headlines and buried in the report revealed higher incidences of allergies and asthma, and higher rates of cervical cancer, polycystic ovarian syndrome, blocked fallopian tubes, and pelvic inflammatory disease.89 Although thyroid damage from soy formula has been the principal concern of critics for decades, the researchers excluded thyroid function as a subject for study. Not surprisingly, this study was funded in part by the infant-formula industry.

At the same time, Congress yielded to drug company lobbyists and public health officials seeking liability shields for drug companies and vaccine administrators to absolve them from legal responsibility for vaccine injuries and deaths that occur in the future when the Secretary of Health declares a public health "emergency" and orders mass use of experimental vaccines.

Mothers who lived near crops where certain pesticides were sprayed faced a 40 to 120 percent increase in risk of miscarriage due to birth defects. "20% of all cases where the male is the only contributing factor to infertility can be corrected by lifestyle."

This meat porridge may also include euthanized animals from animal shelters (still containing the chemical that killed them) and roadkill to which all manner of food additives and preservatives have been added in abundance to complete the recipe.

Fitzgerald points out that the poisoning of our pets has been going on for so long, that illnesses Pitcairn never saw in younger animals when he came out of vet school in the 1960s, are so common, vets graduating today, think it is normal to see these diseases in young animals. Keep in mind, lots of vets sell the same low quality commercial pet food to you while you’re in their clinics for medical advice for your animal pal.

The CDC recommended that children 6 to 23 months of age receive an annual flu vaccination.

In 1967, Americans ate 114 pounds of sugar and sweeteners a year per capita, nearly all of it as either raw or refined sugar. In 2003, each person consumed about 142 pounds of sugar per year.

 

 

Several clinical studies demonstrate that the glutamates can cause severe nervous depression and schizophrenia. ..and suicidal proclivity, mainly in young people.

2003-2004: A mini-epidemic of a more severe type of influenza caused by the A/Fujian strain occurred around the world,  Without informing the public that the flu vaccine did not contain the strain of flu causing severe flu that season, the CDC heavily publicized child flu deaths in the fall of 2003 and Americans stood in long lines that fall and winter to get flu vaccine, which caused a vaccine shortage and subsequent CDC-recommended rationing of flu vaccine supplies. 

Since high-fructose corn syrup was developed more than 30 years ago, consumption of the sweetener, which flavors everything from soda pop to ranch dressing, has skyrocketed. Now Americans down about 61 pounds a year each.

Pediarix,a vaccine that combines the DTaP, IPV, and Hep B vaccines, into one shot, is approved.

and a 200 to 7,000 percent increase in autism in every state in the U.S. during the past 20 years. As more and more vaccines are mandated to prevent more and more infectious diseases in early childhood, more and more Americans are stuck on sick. 

There has been a 17-fold increase in Type I diabetes, from 1 in 7,100 children in the 1950s to 1 in 400 now.

2007

Recent research, reported at the 2007 national meeting of the American Chemical Society, found new evidence that soft drinks sweetened with HFCS may contribute to the development of diabetes because it contains high levels of reactive compounds that have been shown by others to trigger cell and tissue damage that cause diabetes.

American children were being told by government health officials and pediatricians to get 48 doses of 14 vaccines by age six and 53-56 doses of 15 or 16 vaccines by age 12. In May 2007, CNN Money reported predictions that vaccine industry sales will more than double by 2010.

A booster dose of Varivax, the chickenpox vaccine, is now recommended for all children.

The recommended age for Flumist, the nasal spray flu vaccine, was lowered to two years.

Maryland's governor and public health officials, fed up with the unwillingness of over 2,000 parents to have their children vaccinated, invoke gunpoint medicine yet again by threatening the parents with arrest and up to 30 days of imprisonment if they don't submit their children to state-mandated vaccinations. The children and parents are later rounded up at a county courthouse, guarded by attack dogs and security personnel, while a district Judge oversees the mass injection of schoolchildren with vaccines that contain toxic mercury.  http://www.NaturalNews.com/022242.html

2008

In case you forgot, or never knew in the first place, the number one source of calories in the U.S. is high fructose corn syrup.  Let me restate that so you can more fully appreciate the impact of this fact.  Dietary fat has 250 percent more calories than sugar, but even with this major disadvantage, the food that most people get MOST of their calories from is HFCS, primarily in the form of soft drinks. The U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) estimates that the consumption of high fructose corn syrup was just over 40 pounds per year, per person, as of 2007. It accounts for roughly 41 percent of all caloric sweeteners consumed in the U.S.

But if the very cell lines which have
provided the foundation for breast cancer research for the past
quarter century have now been conclusively shown to be melanoma cells, not breast cancer,
how solid or trustworthy is the evidence on which
current breast cancer treatment is based?
Evidence built on such
flawed foundations more c
losely resembles hearsay than science.

Kinrix, a combination of DTaP and IPV that can be used for children between the ages of 4 and 6 is approved.

Pentacel, a combination of DTaP, IPV and Hib is approved.

Rotarix, a two dose rotavirus vaccine is approved.

 

My Thoughts:

Allergies: There has been a big increase in allergies among school-age children. Allergies are a symptom of something else wrong in the body and not the true problem. Chemicals in the food supply contribute to the problem.  Too many childhood shots and overuse of antibiotics contribute to it. Bad diet, junk food, adulterated food, hydrogenated fats, refined oils, etc. all contribute to the problem. We eat crap, we feed our kids crap, and then we wonder why we have health problems. But the all these things don't explain the recent rise. Perhaps Frankenfoods (genetically engineered foods) may be the cause of that.

Artificial Sweeteners: Aspartame is also one of the sugar substitutes used by diabetics. .... 10% of aspartame (by mass) is broken down into methanol in the small intestine. ...  Don't use any of them.

Autism: Is not caused by mercury alone. It is caused by the shots themselves. Many babies cannot get rid of the toxins introduced into their tiny bodies from vaccinations. The medical argument about the vaccinations have saved lives is mostly bunk. See my other site:  http://barbfeick.com/vaccinations/

Fluoride: It does not protect your teeth. Toothpaste should not be used at all to clean teeth. It should not be added to drinking water.

FDA: Does not exist to protect the public. It exists to protect big business. Our government has no problem treating us as guinea pigs and feeding us genetically-modified food.

Grains: Many people do not digest them and are better off avoiding them. But is it a problem with modern grains - (wheat changed substantially in the 1960's and then again in the 1980's, bioengineered, bred for high gluten content...) or would it be a problem if we still consumed the old varieties in the old ways of preparing them?  I would suggest eating only non Frankenfood grains for a while and see if it helps your health. And that probably means eating no wheat or corn. Don't know about rice. Millet and other grains are probably fine to eat. See:  The Future of Food and  The GMO food guide

Obesity epidemic: Got worse when the fatfree craze hit. It is not caused by our sitting on our butts more. It has been caused by a number of things: lack of good quality fats in the diet (this includes the unnatural animal fat in meat caused by feeding the animals grain instead of grass), abundance of unnatural fats and oils in the diet, chemicals in the diet - the no-calorie sweeteners that caused the rats to get fat in the experiments do the same to people, high junk food consumption (what passes for good food in our schools is an example. Obsessing about weight and diets. Diets do not work. And HFC, drinking too much pop both diet and regular.

Soy: Don't eat it except in very small quantities. Don't use soy formula for babies. It is NOT a health food.

Sugar: Avoid high fructose corn syrup. If you want to eat cookies, make them at home from scratch with butter. Don't use mixes for anything. Don't drink pop. White granulated sugar is best avoided but it is not the cause of the obesity epidemic.

Vaccines: Are not the miracle cure that they have been promoted to be. Flu shots are pretty much worthless. They don't boost the immune system but depress it. Polio was disappearing before the vaccines were widely given. The following is an excellent website http://www.relfe.com/vaccine.html  Also see my other site:  http://barbfeick.com/vaccinations/

Wheat: In the old days wheat was not as high in gluten. It was not ground as finely. It was not quickly made into a food product. It had to be soaked (which deactivates the phytate). Coarse grains don't digest as fully. It was used as a whole grain and often partly fermented which predigests it and makes it easier for us to digest. It was not fed to livestock. It was not genetically modified. We eat wheat in forms that were never imagined 100 years ago. Trying a wheat-free diet is a good idea. If it helps you, quit eating wheat. If it doesn't, at least eat stoneground non-Frankenfood wheat and not balloon bread or hydrogenated grease, bleached flour, and sugar concoctions.
