A Conscious Guide To Childhood Vaccinations
This is a must read book for all parents who desire to make an educated choice about how to (or not to) vaccinate their child. A Parents’ Conscious Guide To Childhood Vaccinations is wonderfully written by Lauren Feder, M.D., a nationally recognized physician who specializes in holistic health and is board certified in homeopathic medicine. This is an easy-to-read book that offers practical medical AND natural ways to protect your child.
Dr. Feder says it best when she wrote, “Whatever your decision regarding vaccinations, the goal is always the same: to raise happy and healthy children who are able to blossom and reach their potential in life.” That is the truth! And, now thanks to this book, parents have a tool to help them look at their child as an individual, not a number. The information in this book eases the confusion and frustration as to how to wisely choose a safe approach in vaccinating or not. The “pro-informed-choice” is the best choice when it comes to all of the parenting choices we make, Childhood Vaccinations educates parents on the topic of vaccinations with wisdom and expertise.
If your wondering, “What’s right for my child?” this book is for you!
A Look Inside Childhood Vaccinations
The contents of this book are broken down into 7 chapters that are very easy to follow. The information in each chapter is priceless for parents, priceless! I learned so much, and the way it was all laid out and presented was really easy to digest. Wonderfully written and easy to get through.
Chapter 1: The Natural Parenting Approach to Health. “Knowing how to act as the first line of defense against illness for your child is the best way to keep them active, happy and healthy” says Dr. Feder. This chapter gives both conventional and holistic perspectives on illnesses. We love that this book takes a look from both of these perspectives.
Chapter 2: The Immune System and Vaccinations.
Chapter 3: Pro-Vaccination and Anti-Vaccination Viewpoints. Again, Dr. Feder addresses both sides of the debate here. She addresses many important statements around the vaccination debate, and gives the viewpoint from both sides. She gives these view points on statements such as: “a vaccine is prepared in such a way that it is similar to the illness but not dangerous, mercury toxicity is no longer an issue, some of the vaccine components such as aborted human tissue raise ethical issues” and more! This section ends with a great graph showing the inactive ingredient in vaccines. This graph tells why these inactive ingredients are in the vaccine, and what their adverse effects are. Now this is the information that we don’t ever get told about!
Chapter 4: The Role of Government, Pharmaceutical Companies, and Insurance. I was blown away by the info in this short chapter. Learn the FDAs and the CDCs role, the income that physicians generate from vaccines, and the compensation program that protects the vaccine companies in this chapter.
Chapter 5: Childhood and Adolescent Vaccines and Recommended Immunization Schedule. This chapter reviews each vaccine in the Recommended Vaccination Schedule, describing the effects of both the diseases and the vaccination intended to prevent them. Dr. Feder also gives ideas of how to gauge your child’s risk of getting each illness and developing complications, as well as his/her own risk for adverse side effects from the vaccine. Priceless!
Chapter 6: Alternatives to the Standard Vaccine Schedule. No vaccinations, selective shot schedules, exemptions from the standard schedule and homeopathic alternatives to vaccines are all the main topics here!
Chapter 7: The Safe Shot Strategy. If you decided to vaccinate, making sure your child is in good health at the time of giving the shot is important. This chapter gives a great check list, Dr. Feder’s Safe Shot Strategy, to prevent or at least minimize any possible adverse effects from the shot. Additionally, she gives info on how to recognize vaccine reactions if they happen. A section on natural treatment to strengthen the immune system and the how-to’s of administering homeopathic remedies make this chapter an amazing addition to this awesome book!
Conclusion: What’s Right for My Child? I love how this book considers each child as an individual with individual needs. Additionally, giving both sides justice makes it a book for all!
