​Here are five studies that actually compare vaccinated children with unvaccinated children. Studies like this are rarely done and are not discussed in the media because they cast a negative shadow on vaccines. They are published in peer-reviewed journals but the mainstream media tend to ignore them because the pharmaceutical industry (their biggest advertiser) is not keen on promoting public discussion. Vaccines always come with side effects. Those side effects should be weighed in the balance to determine the overall benefit before administering them. Researchers are working to develop a vaccine for Covid-19 but it is important to remember that neither a drug nor a vaccine can cure disease. Developing a strong immune system is the only real safeguard. 

​Doctors estimate that one in ten people will have a kidney stone during their lifetime. It is one of the most painful experiences. The parathyroid gland controls levels of calcium in the blood. The Norman Parathyroid Center is the world's leading experts on calcium and kidney stones. The Center states, "Hyperparathyroidism (high calcium levels) is the number one cause of kidney stones and thus every person with a kidney stone must be tested for a problem with their parathyroid glands. Nearly half of all people with kidney stones have a benign parathyroid tumor in their neck that must be removed or the kidney stones will return."

The Coronavirus pandemic has engendered a lot of fear in people. The media reports and tracks daily the number of cases and deaths which are growing exponentially. Social distancing and self-isolation (quarantining) are reliable practices that can dramatically lower the total number of people infected. The death rate from the seasonal flu (influenza) is about 0.1% (1 in 1000 ) while the Covid-19 appears to be about 1% (1 in 100). Please note that the 3% sometimes reported in the news refers only to those who get an extremely severe case (most people do not). Even though 99 in 100 people survive this virus, there hasn't been much attention paid to how they do it. It all centers on our immune system and how we can strengthen it so we avoid serious cases which can turn into pneumonia.

Glycobiology scientists know that cell surface sugar structures resembling little antennas allow proper communication to take place between cells. These cell surface sugar structures are critical for a healthy immune system. These sugar receptors form a sugar shroud around the outside of cells called the glycocalyx. It is like having a beard of sugars covering the face of the cell. The whiskers of the beard are these sugar receptors.

There can be confusion about how glycobiology relates to apoptosis. Glycobiology is the science that studies glycans or sugars in the body. These sugars hold cells together, they allow cells to communicate together and they allow the immune system to function. In our A Wellness Journey class we share two quotes from the 2012 National Academy of Science publication on Glycoscience.

​The Autism Science Foundation (ASF) has a strong pro-vaccine agenda. On their website, they list 27 studies they claim prove vaccines and autism are not related. When you read all 27 studies you find they actually only "study" one vaccine (MMR) and one vaccine ingredient (thimerosal). There are 38 ingredients and 11 other vaccines they should have studied also. It's even more disturbing when reading the studies to see they are clearly biased. For example, a premier study (Verstraeten) touted by pro-vaccine supporters and published in Pediatrics in 2000, is seriously flawed. 

​An interesting paradigm: How can a woman have soft bones and kidney stones at the same time? The bones are the biggest depository for calcium in the body. Women with osteoporosis can lose calcium from their bones and have it be deposited in her kidneys. From there it is flushed out as hard, jagged crystals that are excruciatingly painful to pass. Bones are actually made from 17 essential nutrients including magnesium which is the most important mineral along with calcium.

​The first published evaluation of electrodermal activity (EDA) involving a galvanometer made by Zyto was published in the journal Missouri Medicine (114:238-244, 2017). Galvanometers pass a weak current between electrodes pressed to the skin and measure the resistance between them. The traditional theory of EDA proposes that skin resistance varies with the state of sweat glands located in the skin. Sweating is controlled by
