Your Child's Brain on Mercury



Here's a great video on how mercury affects the brain. Mercury is the second most toxic substance on Earth. Mercury was commonly used in the manufactering of vaccines up until a few years ago. It is a main ingredient in a common vaccine preservative called thimersal (50% mercury by weight). You may have heard that vaccines are not mercury free. This is not necessarily true. Several still contain mercury. Other vaccines include mercury in the manufacturing process and then it is washed out, leaving trace amounts.

SEE VIDEO HERE

CLICK HERE to see which vaccines have thimerosal. Keep in mind that .01% thimerosal contains 25 micrograms of mercury.

You may have heard that thimerosal is safe, that only safe amounts are used. Think again.
Use this
MERCURY CALCULATOR to determine how much mercury your child received with his/her vaccines.

THINK BEFORE YOU VACCINATE! Once you do it, you can't ever take it back.

Thanks for the info! That will come in handy when we have children (don't worry... not hinting at anything :)
