Inoculations
In my opinion you shouldn't try to protect your child from chicken pox. It is best if they get it while they are young so they can develop natural life-long immunity to the disease. In the old days, before drug companies became the multi-billion dollar monsters that they are today, people understood this and would take a child who hadn't had chicken pox over to the house of a child who currently had the disease so that the first child could catch the disease from the second to develop life-long immunity (and a stronger immune system.)
Inoculations are dangerous and do not always give life-long protection. They simply set them up to get the disease later in life when it is more likely to be dangerous.
I don't give my kids any inoculations. The best thing that you can do to protect them is to build strong immune systems - mostly with a healthy diet. If your children are 14 and 20 and have never had the disease I wouldn't worry about it. It is possible that they got it at some point but no one realized it because they did not break out badly (due to strong immune systems.) If this happened they are already immune. I certainly wouldn't give them the shot at this point (nor at any point.) Just keep them healthy. Eat right and take your supplements to insure that you get all the nutrition that is missing from our foods these days. Nature's Noni is a good choice and of course Super Supplemental is a must for everyone. -Duane |
