NEW LIQUID FISH OIL NOW AVAILABLE

Our new pharmaceutical grade, ultra-refined, fish oil is now available bottled in liquid form. The liquid form is better for children or adults who are unable to swallow the capsules, and for those who have an inflammatory condition and require higher daily dosages of EPA and DHA. The adult dose of 1 teaspoon per day is equivalent to swallowing 5 capsules. The children’s dose is 1/4-1/2 teaspoon per day.

This is the newest generation of triglyceride extracted fish oil. This is the finest quality EPA/DHA concentrate that we have ever offered. This oil is purified and bottled in Canada, and the purity is guaranteed by the International Fish Oil Standards: http://www.ifosprogram.com/IFOS/ConsumerReport.aspx

I believe that we should all supplement with the long-chain omega-3 fatty acids daily, because these fatty acids are deficient in our diet. They are necessary to promote health of the heart, brain, joints, and skin. Since the fish fat concentrates chemical pollutants, a sophisticated distillation process is required to remove mercury, dioxins, PCB’s, saturated fats, and other toxic pollutants from the raw fish oil. This refinement is especially important for pregnant and lactating women, children, and for those who require higher doses for treating medical conditions. An additional benefit is that this highly purified oil is less “fishy” tasting. A light mango flavor is added to further enhance the taste.

Medical problems which may respond to high dose fish oil therapy include: type 2 diabetes, acne, rheumatoid arthritis, multiple sclerosis, Parkinson’s disease, ADHD, Alzheimer’s disease, atherosclerosis, and depression.

Here are the specifications and the label.

GARDASIL™, THE NEW HPV VACCINE

Gardasil has been heavily promoted by its manufacturer, Merck & Co., as a vaccine to be administered to girls from ages 9-26. This vaccine is aimed against 4 strains of the human papillomavirus (HPV), which are sexually transmitted, and can cause cervical cancer. However 15 strains of HPV have been implicated in causing cervical cancer, so the vaccine does not protect against all of the high-risk strains of the virus.

As of July 27, 2007 there were 2207 reports of adverse reactions to Gardasil submitted to the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS). This was an increase of 2125 new reports in 5 1⁄2 months since February 6th, 2007. These formally reported cases represent the most serious side effects that girls have experienced. I expect that many less damaging side effects have not been reported.

There have been 3 deaths reported in girls shortly following vaccination.

31 reports were considered life threatening. This is 1.4% of the girls reported.

1385 girls went to the emergency room. That is 62.75% of the girls reported.

451 girls at the time of the report had not recovered. That is 20.43% of the girls reported.

51 girls were disabled when the report was filed. That is 2.31% of the girls reported and more information was requested.

You can access the VAERS database at: http://www.medalerts.org/ to obtain further information about vaccine damage reports.

Because of the many unresolved issues regarding the safety and efficacy of this vaccine, I am currently recommending that my patients avoid Gardasil. I feel that it will take at least 5 years until we have enough data to objectively judge the value of this vaccine. Don’t let Merck use your daughters as guinea pigs for testing their new vaccine.
