Food Allergies

There has been quite a lot of research done that points to vaccinations causing food allergies. The paper linked to the right, entitled Evidence that Food Proteins in Vaccines Cause the Development of Food Allergies and Its Implications for Vaccine Policy, from the Journal of Developing Drugs (2015), describes the evidence that vaccines can, and do, create food allergies—some of them life-threatening.

Generally, the allergen (in the form of food protein) is initially introduced to the body as a component of the vaccine. Since the vaccine is injected directly into the blood or subcutaneous tissue through a needle, the components bypass the normal safeguards and processing the body has available when dealing with compounds absorbed through normal pathways.

This is my biggest issue with injectables. The body is well-equipped to generate immune responses and deal with foreign invaders it encounters by natural means; much of your immune system resides in the mucous membranes (of the nasal cavities, the gut, and lungs, for example) and nearby lymphatic structures. They are your first line of defense. But injection is another matter altogether that bypasses these defenses, and requires your body to go into a sort of panic mode to cope. The result is autoimmune disorders, allergic sensitization, and subsequent anaphylactic reactions.

For an example of this, see Vaccines and the Peanut Allergy Epidemic. You don't get peanut allergies by eating peanuts, but they do arise after injection of miniscule amounts of peanut proteins.
