Avoid the Flu SHot, Take Vitamin Dl

 

Dr. Petryk’s Thoughts: While the CHC boasts the benefits of the flu shot, they are laughing all the way to the bank. The CDC’s 15-member Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) makes recommendations each year on who should be vaccinated.By the way, Almost all the ACIP members who make these recommendations have financial ties to the vaccine industry. The CDC therefore must grant each member a conflict-of-interest waiver.

This obvious conflict of interest and “fudged” statistics calls into question the motivation and efficacy of the flu vaccine. ‘

I assure you that you getting the flu has little to do with a lack of vaccine. You get the flu because your immune system is compromised. One of the easiest ways to increase the strength of your immune system id Vit. D.

There is a significant difference in having a “normal level” (Vit. D blood level) which can run from 30-100 however; when you look at functionality and not just static levels, you’re functionally deficient when you’re under 80.

Ask your physician for a Vitamin D3 blood test. If your physician doesn’t have an interest, then seek out someone like your chiropractor. In my office, a serum D3 is part of everyone’s lab work. If you’re in an area that has a company called “Any Lab Test” then stop in and request one and you can get one without a script for it. Still having problems, then contact us and we’ll help you find a solution.

Once you have determined what you’re levels are, then you can look at supplementation to build your levels back up.
